Labour MP Mike Gapes, who chairs the Commons Foreign Affairs Committee, has tabled a Commons motion, accusing the BBC of being "profoundly wrong" in treating the BNP as a "normal party", based on their support in the European elections, where they now have two Euro MPs.


The irony is, he probably wouldn't have the balls to say the Pirate Party for instance wasn't a 'normal party', but the BNP are politic's bogeymen so why not? :roll:

Truthfully, and though it pains me to say it, they've got a political mandate and so the BBC has to give them screen time. The day the BBC gets to decide who should and shouldn't get on TV will be a very worrying day indeed.

Discrimination is always wrong, even if it means you can't discriminate against racists.

Considering the "major" parties get on every week, that actually seems rather low.

As long as the Ian Hislop Party appears more frequently, I’m OK with that.

After watching last weeks, I have to say that I think I'm being indifferent to the show and the issues it attempts to discuss. So, like, whatever man :roll:
