back to article BNP DDoS 'mega-assault' not actually mega in the least

A supposedly massive denial of service attack against the British National Party website has been exposed as a gross exaggeration. The assault, which began on Friday, was described by the party in an email appeal for funds as the "largest cyber attack in recorded history" and comparable only to a 2001 assault against Microsoft …

    re anglo saxon

    The noxious tuetons in general and the saxons in particular all came from bloody Central Asia. Let them bugger off back to whatisitstan and stay there.

    You _do_ know that 'Saxon' basically means 'shiv man', don't you? Bloody knife-fighting bastards, invading, polluting the countryside, behaving like the chavs they are. Send 'em back where they came from. Do it now. Britain for Celts!

    > Over 50% of newborns in London now are to foreign-born mothers ...

    And I have to say: so what? Why should I care? Do you want to throw my wife out of the country?

    You are so proud of being Anglo-Saxon? But that'll be just two of the hundreds of "foreign" groups who have "invaded" our country in the past and "ruined" our way of life.

    > it is inevitable that native Brits will be a minority in our own capital city

    No it isn't, because all those "foreign" newborns will be native Brits. Just as much as you or me. Live with it. Get over your inferiority complex and just be happy. Why not go out for a nice meal. You have such a great choice: Indian/Chinese/Mexican/Italian/Polish/American/Vietnamese/French or even British...

    > You only have to look to ...

    These countries have plenty of other reasons for their problems. Few of them are *caused* by race (but that may be used as an excuse by the ignorant - sound familiar?).

    I can think of plenty of examples of other countries with very diverse populations that coexist pretty well.

    Singapore is a good example (despite perhaps not being the Western ideal of a democracy).

    The USA.

    And, oooh, let me think now, oh yes: Great Britain. Which I am proud to say is largely happily multi-cultural despite a small minority of not terribly bright people trying to cause trouble.

    The thing is, the trouble isn't caused by foreigners. It is caused by *you*. Try putting your head under water for 30 minutes. See if that helps.

    Labour is making the next election a race issue, and gambling that enough people have been brainwashed by the double speak educators, because the BNP tends to get ex Labour voters. The Conservatives tend to get ex Liberal voters.

    The next election is going right wing no matter what happens, people want a government to concentrate on getting a strong economy back, and leftist bollocks never works, mill stone round the neck of the strong.

    The BNP will get the protest votes for Europe, they won't win the general election but they may get a few seats, it would be good to see them tested a bit more. People don't like racism but they do like nationalism. And not many care what the Church says any more. Send the BNP to Europe that will put the cat amongst the pigeons, a nationalist party in Euroland, they are more likely to find out what is going on there, may even get us paying less to the EC or perhaps get our fishing rights back.

    The BNP probably should have bought better than a budget hosting agreement, so it seems they need to upgrade to a more robust server; IMHO well overdue, however will probably look rather silly, if they exaggerated the DDoS attack, to raise funds for an upgrade.

    Mr 'Celt', I doubt you are a pure Celt now, what with all the interbreed between Northern European (White) peoples on this island, the majority of which occurred and formed our culture, and laws, before we had appreciable immigration from other parts of the World. We say Anglo Saxon because they just happened to be one of the more powerful groups after the Romans, and carried on Roman Law, and Christianity, for a while after, we don't tend to say we are Normans, because they acted like thugs.

    Immigration is fine at a low level, and without significant differences in, skin colour, culture, law, religion, and birth rate. However immigration is no longer at an acceptable level, this is fracturing our resources _now_, worse, integration and interbreeding appear to be declining, and the negligent UK state keeps making the situation worse, so our very culture, freedom, law, and identity, are under threat.

    It is no surprise that the foreign groups like Marxists, and the Islamic mafia, have seen fit to stir up trouble, because they see an opportunity to get a foothold, for their profitable interests, in this country. I may not like all about the BNP, however there are worse groups active now e.g. state Marxists, state Fascists, our criminal parliament, and the Wahhabi Moslems!

    Ummmm - The original inhabitants of these scepter'd isles were the Picts. The Celts were also invaders. But by the time that the Angles & the Saxons arrived, the Celts had already interbred with the Romans, the idigenous PIcts, various other races that the Romans brought with them, such as East Europeans, North Africans, as well as the various Mediteraneans.

    Basically, we are a mongrel race. But that's OK, because most mongrels are far tougher than the thoroughbreds.

    What do you mean by "we British"? Because I am ashamed to be associated with your views. So we'll have less of the "we", thank you very much..

    Objectively there is no such thing as a "British race". There isn't a unique set of genetic markers that identify the True Brit from Johny Foreigner, Pub Landlord from Manuel.

    Ask a population geneticist about the concept of race, it doesn't exist: there is typically more variation within groups perceived as a "race" than there is between "races". (Oh but wait, maybe he is part of a lefty marxist liberal conspiracy because the science doesn't match your preconceptions.)

    There is British nationality, but that is purely a matter of legal convention.

    Ultimately, there are just people who live here. Some were born here. And some them have parents who were born here. And so on. But ultimately we all came out of Africa (which must be rather distressing for you). How far back can you trace *all* of your ancestors being born in this country? (Not that I care of course)

We'll take on all-comers (then lose).

    "Anglo Saxon" comes from the "Angles" (a Germanic tribe) and the "Saxons" (a Germanic tribe). The Normans came from Germany. The Danes were a mixture of Norse and Germanic tribes.

    By "Little Englander" I was referring to the type of selective-memory person who believes that two little islands off the coast of Europe are somehow superior to every other person and country on the planet. If you feel I used the wrong term, please insert a more appropriate one of your choice.

    I wouldn't credit the BNP with anywhere near the number of braincells required to be in the same league as the 1930s/40s National Socialists. They're wannabes. Opportunist thugs who want to be in power at any cost so they can beat up who they want, any time they want, and they should be treated as such - with disdain. They should and cannot, however, be ignored or banned. Just made to look like the idiots and thugs that they are.

    Evidently their grasp of technology and history are equally inept. The UK, not just Great Britain, is an entire nation of people descended from all over Europe who have fought, settled and bred with everyone else from around Europe and beyond. It is perfectly true from my experience, however, that many people really do think that the jobs currently being done by immigrants are "below" them and have a sense of entitlement to money without working to get it. That's not a problem with immigration, that's a problem with people being bone idle and expecting everything for nothing. It's also a problem with industry seeing the opportunity for a quick buck by employing someone cheaper than their current (presumably but not necessarily indigenous) staff.

    My point above about the BNP leaflet being the only one with policies is that it's the imbecilic morons we've allowed into power in this country that are giving even bigger imbecilic morons like the BNP the room they need to expand. If the rest of them would stop sniping at each other and start actually running the country rather than running hate campaigns against the other parties, people like the BNP wouldn't have a platform to stand on.

    But it is a prejudice.

    Much as theirs is that I am a marxist, foreigner loving part of some conspiracy to reduce their future prospects.

    Mostly wrong*.

    But I don't actually know much about them.

    Yes, they have dodgy email addresses indicating nazi sympathies, but quite a lot of young stupid people don't actually know anything about the nazis other than that they wore cool uniforms, and are generally the baddies, so that sort of hero worship whilst indicative of low educational attainment isn't actually evidence of evil intent.

    Yes, some are nasty racists - well news flash, so are some people who aren't BNP. Racism is simply a specific form of xenophobia, from which we all suffer as a natural phobia that decent parenting, education, and exposure can overcome.

    I keep hearing that their secret plan is to reinstitute a genuine third reich, but is it, or are they just a not very nice bunch of thuggish nationalists who are emotionally and intellectually insecure (I feel on safe ground saying that given their public pronouncements).

    Hyperbole is hyperbole regardless of whether it's 'them' or 'us' using it.

    Interesting reading

    It's quite interesting to read the stuff written here. Partly to see the polar opposite opinions of people, both sides bunkered down as they verbally cannon each other, and partly to discover, amongst rhetoric some fairly useful stats. but it would be a good idea to put a little stop to the commonly held view that a British race doesn't exist as actually it did and continues to do so.

    It's a theory undoes itself very easily when you stop and think for a moment about where the tribes and culures themselves that created a British race came from, and think where those came from, and so on until you eventually come to some scrubland in Africa. It means that eventually you do arrive at a racial purity, probably not the type the BNP and others would be happy to acknowledge of course, but I digress. The point is that to say that one type of person is a misnomer (ie British), but that others are credible (ie Anglo-Saxon, Celts, Picts etc) is wrong.

    Anyway, back to the present. The majority of people who wish to live in the UK do so for economic reasons, which has gone on since the dawn of humanity. We migrate to where living is easier and food more plentiful. So to blame anyone for coming to this country is as unpleasant as the false accusations to them of being feckless law breakers and parasites on our public services. Yet we continue to do little to help these people through measurable economic aid beyond throwing some sacks of maze out the back of a Hercules. Sadly, until someone wakes up and changes the way in which we help other nations then people will go on living in conditions no-one should have to tolerate, and want to move to where they can have a better life.

    @mike2R """The BNP are, quite simply, scum"""

    Certainly, they are. However:

    The problem for democracy is that our leaders do not care what we vote: They are all on exactly the same agenda, that of managing up, being seen with the right people, brown-nosing ones way to higher places in the EU commission, the UN, the world bank perhaps - where the skimming is better and the press coverage non-existent.

    To do that they need the proper credentials, first and foremost: They must be seen to support and promote multiculturalism in all ways, that means (because even that is a lie) giving preferential treatment to "The Religion of Peace(tm)".

    So, sadly, the only way get at them is to vote for some nasty right-wing-scum populist party, because THAT will give a red mark in their resume and THAT is what will make them sit up and listen for a while!

    The risk is of course that should a totalitarian party actually get a majority --- whoops --- How Convenient it will be for them that all the STASI -bugging and -policing is already operational courtesy of the so-called responsible politicians. But then, we can always Move - Now or Later, it does not matter so much; at least we tried not to.

    Fascism != Nazism, FYI

    An article on the BNP attracting so many comments? Who'da thunkit?

    Anyway, to quote, "The British Nazis are Labour, no other political party has done so much to bring a Fascist regime into play as them, so many freedoms stomped upon by the Labour boot of oppression."

    I think someone has confused nazism with fascism. The BNP are more like nazis. "New" Labour (and the tories) are more like fascists (if you let them get that bad). Fascism is more like Starship Troopers than Stormtroopers, though there may be some overlap since they are both somewhat authoritarian ideals. Fascism is "unity" (whether you like it or not), and basically involves business owning government (hence the term 'corporate fascism'). Nazism is similiar, but underpinning it is the notion that "race is nation". It is also a primarily _socialist_ ideology, so more like government owning business than vice versa. So nazism is inherently racist, whereas fascism is not necessarily so. However either ideology is not desirable in government if you wish to live in a country that values individual freedom.

    In either case, the BNP has ties to Combat 18. A bit like Sinn Fein has ties to the IRA. Going to tell me they aren't neo-nazis now?

    Yeah. Flame warning for this entire comment tree methinks.
