The phony UKIP party, already struggling with internal dissent after the shock resignation of one of its MEPs, has shamelessly stolen another British National Party policy with the announcement that it wants burkas banned.
The BNP debated this issue at its annual conference two years ago and adopted a motion calling for the banning of the burka from public view in Britain.
The BNP decided at the time that the wearing of the burka was an affront to British values, society and civilisation, and had no place in this country which had struggled so hard to ensure equal rights for women.
At the time, the BNP was the only party to sound the alarm about the threat of militant Islamism in Britain. Now that events have proven the BNP correct, the shameless opportunists of the UKIP party have tried to steal this policy, Nick Griffin told BNP News.
“It is pathetic and will fool no-one,” Mr Griffin said. “The public know only too well that UKIP is a one-issue pressure group whose leader already formally offered to disband that party if the Tories agreed to hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty.
“The public also know that UKIP supports the fake ‘balanced migration’ scam which has been drawn up by Tory and Labour insiders to trick the public into thinking that it is alright to flood the country with Third World immigrants as long as the population numbers remain the same.
“In the light of all that, I doubt if UKIP’s most fanatical supporters will believe the latest policy theft is motivated by a genuine concern for Britain’s future,” Mr Griffin said.
He added that the BNP believed that anyone wanting to cover their faces in public (except in extreme cold weather) was motivated by bad faith.
“What possible purpose can there be to covering one’s face in public except if one is up to no good?” Mr Griffin continued.
“Only criminals, far-left UAF-type gangsters and others intent on public harm feel the need to cover their faces.
“The BNP therefore would argue for a total ban on covering one’s face in public applicable to all face masks and not just of burkas,” Mr Griffin said.
“We are confident that the public knows that the BNP is the only party which first announced and actually believes these policy positions.
“Unlike UKIP, the BNP adopted these policies not for populist trickery but because we were the first to see them as essential to preserving the British nature of our country.
“On that basis, we reject the UKIP fraud for what it is: political opportunism of the worst degree. That party has no policies apart from a hatred of the EU, and is now being forced to steal from the BNP’s wide range of policies in order to dress up their skeleton.”
