It depends on who I worked for. If I worked for a staunch fundie christian organisation....
My argument is that as a principal ballerina, her job is funded by the arts council - and they have a moral obligation to the general public to not spend their money on someone who may use their position to promote a divided Britain.

Also, she is using her position to publicise a party that promotes a xenophobic attitude.

I felt the same way when Gazza was allowed to play for England, despite beating the shite out of his wife.

You might not agree, but then that's fine ;)

I see what you're saying, but what is the lesser of two evils?
- Removing someone from her job for her politcal alignment, dispite it bieng 'wrong', thus sending out the argument that anyone aligned with the BNP can be brought down.
- Letting someone keep their job as a public figure, dispite their political belifes bieng 'wrong' ?
