Question Time with a Dimbleby
Glancing casually over someone's shoulder on the tube home yesterday, I noticed they were reading a column in The Times which was discussing the possible appearance of the oh-so-delightful BNP on BBC Question Time. The article was based on ten questions which could be put to the Rt Hon Mr Nicholas Griffin which would show him up for the nasty, hate-filled bubble of fart gas that he is.

So if a representative of the British National Party were to appear on this current affairs program and you were to find yourself in the audience, what question would you put to them?

I would be tempted to proffer, "Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler and Oswald Moseley...shag, marry or kill?"

I would say, I'm a white british man, I'm not rich and I have to work to pay my way.
Can you stop claiming to speak for me, you make me sick.

I've already got that on my desktop at home.
I got it when it was leaked at first.
Only 12 members in MK.

This is the second one,
But I assume you know that.
( Cawl, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 10:06, Reply)

I didn't know that
gawd, I'm stoopid.

Hah,
No problem, it's what I assumed at first.
This was sent to me last night.

the member from where my parents live has had his address removed (though all his contact details are there).

I like the Trick or Treat idea...
we should turn up outside their houses dressed up as the Black & White Minstrels.

Mental in the forest?
I don't see what my Sunday night excursions in a big, flappy druid costume have to do with this...

I would ask
'a name such as Griffin suggests perhaps Norman French heritage - when are you going to fuck off back to France you foreign cunt?'

Would that be before or after you punched him in the face?
Now you mention it, he does look a bit French, doesn't he?
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 10:05, Reply)

I would shout the question
whilst punctuating each word with a level 10 facepunch.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 10:07, Reply)

Level 10?
Steady, Monty, he's got to be sufficiently conscious to answer the question!

Or has he? Do we really care what he has to say?
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 10:09, Reply)

you're forgetting
that my facepunches go up to 11 - or 'the Bowie Zone', as I have styled it.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 10:12, Reply)

still, a level 10 is going to be pretty strong
I'm not sure that the pasty butthead could handle it

i would pay to see.....was it you who threw that lollipop at Bowie?...or was it a 'homing teaspoon' disguised as a lolly

Sorry. Late night - I fear I am still a little pissed.

nice
I'd watch question time for that

Pendantry
Nick Griffin is not "right honourable", or in fact "honourable" at all.

Ah, my mistake...
And actually I'm very reassured that he doesn't have that prefix to his name...
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 10:52, Reply)

I would like to say;
"Whilst I dont agree with what you say, I will defend your right to say it"

I would then turn to the audience members who are about to throw eggs at him, "Freedom of speech is for everyone, even racist idiots so please stop throwing things as it only makes him seem like the victim and Britain loves an underdog"

I will then sit back with a smug shit eating grin on my face as I get egged by people who dont see the irony in calling themselves "Anti-fascists/Nazis" yet seek to stifle debate.

That's a very good point you make
Obviously, we get into a disaster scenario if Griffin starts to get the sympathy vote because of the "anti-fascist" protesters.

And, if his last appearance on the Today Programme is anything to go by, if we just let him talk then he eventually shows himself up for the arse that he is -
"mumble mumble mumble politics, pc gone mad, mumble...and now you've got a black man playing Friar Tuck!"
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 11:12, Reply)

Indeed
But lets face it, a black man playing Friar Tuck was fucking with the story a bit too much.

The whole series was shit anyway so I don't really care that much.
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 11:15, Reply)

Yes, totally agree
let him speak so that he may show himself for what he is...an ignorant racist.

It wont happen though, some idiot will throw something or he will be shouted down and the endless cycle will continue.
( Colonel Dracula Two manky hookers and a racist dwarf, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 11:26, Reply)

I'm hoping people will let him just speak
without throwing objects / pantomime booing etc. I also hope he does show himself to be a racist idiot too but you've got to remember he's a politician. BNP supporters won't be watching Question Time, they'll be down the pub telling racist jokes - he'll try his damndest to present an acceptable, non-prejudiced version of the BNP to disaffected potential fringe supporters.
( djtrialprice, Wed 21 Oct 2009, 12:09, Reply)

I'd say the following
"So Nick Griffin, which would you rather shag, a Tranny or a Granny? Please bear in mind we're not talking about post-op bangkok ladyboys or 43-year-old milfs here, oh no no. I'm asking whether you'd basically want to shag a bloke in drag or a wrinkly old hag with floppily doppily bits?"
Then, after his choice [lets say for sake of argument he chose tranny]

"Would it make a difference if the tranny was black?"
