I completely agree Mojo. I am perfectly happy with denying free speech to fascists who believe that one race is inherently, genetically, morally superior to another and who would enforce sanctions and enslave other races, in the name of white power. The BBC should have a corresponding duty to protect the people who would be victims of BNP white power policies which would outweigh any free speech argument. Hate-speech isn't 'free' if it results in race violence and the end of Griffin's argument is the gas chambers.
It is a disgrace that the BBC have done this to satisfy their journaistic egos and the 'obligations' of the charter etc. Fuck the charter. Griffin won't say anything remotely controversial about race on Thursday night.
He will definitely talk about who can't afford their heating bills, the deaths of soldiers in Afgahnistan/Iraq, the terrible state of the NHS, the MPs expenses scandals. He will be searching for cheers and will probably get them. His aim is to make people go away thinking 'he isn't so different to us'. It is arrogance of journalists to think they will expose him once and for all. BBC needed some courage here but they've shown themselves to be pieces of cowardly shit.
