>> the BNP is, to all intents and purposes, extinct.
Never mind those stupid ruffians, three people with asbos and a lame pitbull... the French NF is another matter, anyway in the Euros, anyway to the extent that UKIP has empurpled the constituency maps in the Euros and locals.
One hopes and trusts that these tendencies are temporary, Euro-only, and that things will seem more normal after the general election next year. But there is a sort of putrid right-wing sirocco blowing through the whole world at the moment. Nevertheless Marine Le Pen has pulled off a bit of a blinder, reinventing herself and her party anyway to the satisfaction of unstable Frogs...
