They look to me to be more or less classical liberals. ie about where the conservative party should be.

Total votes cast 328 out of an electorate of 2187 seems to show a complete lack of interest.

Well this For Britain movement look nice. This Bateman fellow is ex-BNP apparently.
Lawrence Searle (a guy running as 'For Britain' next to the head of the National Front):
Having had friends in the past who were avowed Neo-Nazis and in the National Front and who wanted to exterminate every single Jew, as well as others who were arguably worse, I just ask that people be honest about their beliefs. <shrugs> These cowardly types who try and hide them are dishonest in the extreme. For the record, I am not white.
And yes, I really have had proper friends, who were avowed Neo-Nazi. And I'd still call them friends today.

What makes you say the British Democrats are 'far right'? I know they want to stop the flood of cross channel illegals from the EU but if that is the definition of far right then the vast majority of people in this country are far right.

Far Right appears a reasonable description if I refer to Wiki: The British Democratic Party (BDP), commonly known as the British Democrats, is a British far-right political party. It was launched in 2013 in a village hall in Leicestershire by a ten-member steering committee which included former members of several political parties including the British National Party (BNP), Democratic Nationalists, Freedom Party, UK Independence Party (UKIP) and For Britain Movement.[1] It currently has four parish councillors and one local councillor. The party's inaugural president was Andrew Brons, then a Member of the European Parliament (MEP).[1] Brons had been a member of the BNP and a leading member of the National Front (NF). The steering committee included a number of others with a history of membership in fascist and neo-Nazi groups,[2] who believed that the BNP had been corrupted and watered-down.[1] Following the dissolution of the For Britain Movement[11] and the prolonged inactivity of the British National Party,[12] a multitude of nationalist local councillors and prominent far-right activists have subsequently begun coalescing around the British Democrats. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Democratic_Party_(2013)They might state aims some elderly Ukip sympathisers might be comfortable with, but they're definitely Far Right...

Nor do I, but then again some could find a Nazi in their breakfast cereal.

Maybe I should have added: Unless concern over immigration is considered "Far Right".
Which to the Far Left of course, it is.

I don't know why some people have a problem with people who were once members of a far-right organisation, when one -time Communist party members are fawned over and given free rein to exert influence globally. Even claiming their set up is a charity!
quote: “In the autumn of 1988 Julia Middleton, former editor of Marxism Today and unashamed Communist sympathiser formed Common Purpose, an international leadership development organisation which gives leaders the inspiration, the knowledge and the connections they need to produce real change at work and in society. Common Purpose now offers leadership development opportunities worldwide in 46 cities in 18 countries. Since 1989, more than 40,000 leaders have completed one or more Common Purpose courses”
It cannot be emphasised enough how much damage a well-organised, meticulously planned, far reaching and insidious program is capable of changing the collective social and mental structure of society and governance across the globe. We are now witnessing the actual workings of a carefully contrived, decades long agenda for change. “Unity in Diversity,” the motto of the European Union! The last war never ended. Common Purpose is being achieved by stealth in the guise of good leadership and charity, its aims and objectives have superceded the former tactics of battle lines and bombs.
So it would appear that if you were once a member of a right-wing party, or even associated with members of a right-wing party, you are forever damned. But if you are, or were, a Communist, not only are you forgiven but you are allowed to indoctrinate other people with your beliefs and get paid for doing it!
