Ohh spooky this I was just telling one of the people at work about my recent encounter with a BNP leaflet dropper. I was passing the door as she started to push the leaflet in I picked it out opened the door and said you can have this back because if it stays here it?s going in the bin.
She tried to lecture me, telling me I was very silly
if I believed that the BNP were racist, that all ?that type of thing? was in the past, and that the other political parties were just saying that because they knew that the BNP were right and would be running the country in a few years.
I laughed at her, I did try to be polite, but I did actually laugh in her face, as she carried on telling me there were the party for people like me, British policies for British people. I pointed out that I wasn?t British, didn?t stop her, so I?m guessing I must be one of the OK immigrants???
What did stop her was OH appearing behind me in his British Army uniform, he come to complain that I?d lost his beret again. Did I mention OH is Indian?
She stopped mid flow and walked away muttering that I seemed like such a nice girl and it was such a shame
, more at been thought of as a girl. . . .
Saddest thing was she actually came across as quite intelligent (well except for the drivel she was spouting) well spoken etc.
Afterwards I did think about how little joy she would have gotten on our road, in a row of 10 houses only 2 are ?all white?, one of them are a polish couple and the other I think she?s Israeli, until then I hadn?t realised what a diverse bunch we were, actually hadn?t noticed.
