The BNP central policy on race and immigration advocates a halt to immigration with their core solution “voluntary resettlement” of all immigrants back to their indigenous countries.

Personally, I can see their point as in ethnic people should live in their country of ethnic origin.

British people no more have a right to take over or colonise other countries than other races have to colonise the UK.

But then how far do we roll back history? I am sure the Sioux, Cheyenne, and many other indigenous tribes of North America would be very happy to get back their lands, as too the Maoris and Aborigines in New Zealand and Australia.

And this times a thousand through the world’s history of tribal and colonial movements.

Fundamentally the BNP sees a world of ethnic races. I can see their point. There is certainly a case that immigration has been and is far too high into UK.

But we are one humanity on one planet – multiculturalism for the world and for the future has to work.

Realistic immigration policies? Yes. crude racism? Resounding no.
