It has been widely reported that the BBC may be considering inviting BNP leader Nick Griffin to appear on Question Time. This could pose some problems for Gordon Brown as currently the Labour Party will not share a platform with the BNP. It seems to me that there needs to be a reversal on this policy now that the BNP have succeeded in winning two seats in the European parliament, if we want to beat the BNP we have to meet them in open debate. It is clear that there is electoral support for this party and we cannot ignore that, therefore I believe the Labour Party should send an MP to have an open debate on Question Time and tackle the hideous things that Griffin has to say head on. Only then can the truth about the BNP be truly exposed.
