British National Party - Police playing politics

British National Party - Police Playing Politics

It is not the role of Police Forces in the United Kingdom to be a political party. Unfortunately, the Police in this country behave like a political party. We experience this when Police authorities say that somebody cannot be a police officer or play any role in Police forces if the said person is a member or has been a member of the British National Party, of EDL or of a range of other organisations that happen to be political organisations. What is more such depraved attitudes of Police authorities is shared by politicians of other political organisations and those running the mass media in the United Kingdom. Entire segments of British public opinion have been excluded, discriminated against, persecuted, harassed, excluded from jobs in many sectors of the British economy.

When you hear voices talking against extremism, including representatives of Police Officers, you know that they don't have a clue about what they are talking about. If you systematically exclude people from engaging in lawful activities, you will push people towards extremism. 

Jack Renshaw and others that are in British jails were young people who had political ambitions and who wanted to engage in the political process lawfully via elections. They were not about violence. They were not about threatening to kill people. They were systematically discriminated against and their turned against a system that excluded them. For this we have to blame Police Forces, the Political Establishment and the Mass Media and their messages and their messages that demonised ordinary human beings. When they saw that there was no political outlet, they went off the rail and started planning to kill fellow human beings to vent their frustration.

Jo Cox was not a victim and she is usually depicted by the Political Establishment and the Mass Media. She was a victimiser. She was actively campaigning to reinforce the trends towards exclusion and demonising and she fell on her own sword when an individual went out of his way to get her out.

Today, Members of Parliament  complain that they don't feel safe. Well, Members of Parliament of all sides of the political spectrum represented in Parliament feel unsafe. The time was well overdue for Members of Parliament to be made to feel unsafe because we as ordinary people have been feeling unsafe for a very long time because of the policies of a Parliament that lives most of the time in cuckooland. Do ordinary people feel safe? You can ask the relatives of those who have lost their lives or suffered because of the climate of insecurity created by the Political Establishment. They talk a  lot about gang crime but they do close to nothing to deal with the realities that lead to gang crime and knife crime. For ages ordinary people have been forced to live in subhuman conditions and the said subhuman conditions lead to crime.

Zero Hour contracts, sub-employment and other ills of hour time, what do the Political Establishment and the Mass Media think that badly paid unsafe jobs generate? They talk about school exclusions. Well, where do most of those excluded come from? They come from households that live on the edge in a permanent struggle for survival.

Look at the membership criteria of political parties. When they justify exclusions, they are justifying social exclusion and violence. They talk about having a national debate. Well, a real national debate should include all segments of the political spectrum including those they classify as extremist. 

Let me give an example. Before the Good Friday Agreement, the Provisional IRA and others were classified as terrorist organisations and Sinn Fein - the political side of the Provisional IRA - was excluded. Was there peace? When did Peace finally arrive? When there were talks between people who hated each other to death. 

The Far Right and those called Far Right have a genuine right to be part of the national debate for the debate to be national. Until everyone is included and until Police Authorities are forced to stop talking political rubbish, there will not be peace and more and more people will be going off the rail and engaging in violence as the only way of making their views known.
