POPSMore on the Rise of the Euro-Right
Reason has a good post up discussing the rise of the Euro-Right. Moynihan dismantles a number of misconceptions by Left-wing pundits desperate to present the British National Party as a phenomenon of the Right. Here are some good posts about the BNP by Daniel Hannan. For instance: "BBC presenters keep calling the BNP "far Right"? Nick Griffin's acceptance speech: He wasn't going to talk about immigration policy he said, since everyone knew where he stood on the subject. No, his priority was to expose the way in which public assets had been privatized. Look at the BNP's manifesto: it wants nationalisation, subsidy, higher taxes, protectionism and (sotto voce) the abolition of the monarchy. And look at where its votes came from. The BNP is a symptom of Labour's collapse." http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/daniel_hannan/blog/2009/04/24/new_statesman_bnp_is_to_the_left_of_labour http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/daniel_hannan/blog/2009/06/08/2009_european_elections_ten_conclusions
