I would be an awful lot better if it had more BOAT in it

Well...
There's an awful lot of bollocks flying about. The Bonnie Greer 'Ice Age' argument was distinctly odd. And the Conservative is only being tolerated because everyone's been attacking Griffin.

Saying that, I think it has successfully worked as portraying him as a cock, which seems to be the argument everyone has been making for it.

The biggest argument against the BNP
is the fact that they had a female Muslim Tory and a black male in the audience agreeing on immigration restrictions.

Hate the Tories but it shows that racial integration here has moved on when leading Tories are female Muslims...

Agreed
I suppose what I thought though, was that everyone except Griffin came across very well on that programme, because you're right in that it did show that he's so outside the general political spectrum, BUT, that made me feel queasy because I realised I was kind of getting behind a Tory and Jac Straw, and when I thought critically about what they were saying, they were often so vague they would have got a really hard timeon a normal Question Time too...

Not to side with the BNP, certainly, but it ended up feeling like a bit of a baiting rather than a debate.
