Will the BNP give me money to go to Spain?

I'm getting quite excited about this. As the grandaughter of a refugee immigrant, does this mean that they'll give me a grant to return to my grandma's country of ethnic origin (which happens to be Spain)? Will I get lots of cash so I can buy a holiday home on a Costa?

Mind you, seems a bit of a shame for the British tax payer now they've paid for my expensive and prolonged education. Ah well, I expect Spain needs teachers too...

I wonder how many generations back they'll allow - DHs name is supposedly from Hugenot immigrants.

Because if the BNP somehow came to power such that they could implement these policies, I think there would be a lot of people queuing to leave.

I'd certainly leave but the fuckers wouldn't pay me to.

Dh;s ather is German, does that mean he will have to go but I get to stay?

I quite like that idea

People with funny names will definitely be paid to leave Britain. Probably people with dark hair as well. And men who are suspiciously good at dancing.

I'd happily bugger off back to Wales if only Nick Griffin didn't live there - in fact, as he wasn't born there, IIRC, will he be paying himself to return to England?

I've always wanted to live in Ireland anyway.

How many people would actually be left in the UK? Has anyone ever worked it out?

Good point Lynette.

O0h, Cornsilk...we could go and live in the same place and hang out together.

Yeah Lynette! Will Nick pay our fare?

SEA, DH thinks his origins are Flemish not French. In fact, when in Belgium (where Walloon/Flemish rivalry is rife), he reckons that his name induces a warm welcome from the Flemish and distinct coolness from the French-speakers.

Make sure you 'repatriate' to the right place!

there's also those of us who'd need multiple fares, you know one for our arms, one for our legs etc etc, cos we're a mix of lots of origins

so it's off to the south of Ireland for me then. I presume the DCs will have to come too as they aren't "pure" British either

No, Vikings don't get to go. Anyone who arrived before the Norman conquest are 'indigenous', AFAIK (I certainly can't be arsed to re-read the BNP tripe which tries to explain who's in and who's out).

So I'll have one child and a DH in England and as yet unborn child and myself in NZ.....

What are they going to do with all those convicts descendants that were shipped off to Australia? Let them all back to the homeland?

So Romans have to stay, Vikings have to stay - are Normans in or out?

What happens to Africans serving in the Roman legions?
