Still, there'll always be guillable groups, who believe that ill informed, propoganda
:left: :chuckle
My god, a respectable proportion of the guillable population falls for the propoganda dished out at every election by the likes of labour and conservatives!
I neither hate or love the BNP, indifferent and read all leaflets, papers, etc etc with open eyes and make my own judgements.

And to go back to the original post; I delivered mine, just like any other party. It's what I'm paid to do, I am not paid to pass my own judgement on mail, leaflets or otherwise. To not deliver is wilful delay, simple as that.

Surely for all those who refuse to deliver you are like them, trying to force your opinion on others rather than giving them the choice to read the leaflet and make their own minds up..

No. The leaflets still get delivered - that is part of the agreement.
There is no censorship, no-one is denied their right to read BNP leaflets.
But the conscience clause allows posties to opt out of delivering leaflets they find offensive, that they think their customers might find offensive or think may endanger them.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Exactly. In the Netherlands there is a paedophile advocacy group which puts forward all the standard padeophile apologist arguments, in an attempt to get age of consent laws changed or reformed. If there was a group like that here and they stood in an election, would people be happy to take out these leaflets on the basis of free speech and letting everyone make there mind up?

On the contrary. I don't believe in censorship either, and make my own mind up, rather than blindly accepting anyone's propoganda. My objections to the BNP, are that they are so aggressive, and dismissive in their attitude. They actually have some very good ideas, when it comes to general policy, as I've said many times, when we've had similar discussions. BUT they also try to incite hatred of "immigrants", despite the fact that they too, have immigrant blood. But so long as you're the same colour as them, and have no living relatives who were born abroad, they think you're indigenous, and are therefore part of a superior race. Which in their opinion, gives you more rights than anyone else. They regularly state that they're completely different from the Nazi Party. And in many respects, they're right. The Nazis wanted to exterminate anyone who wasn't part of "The Master Race", and the BNP just want to deport anyone who isn't indigenous to Britain. A huge difference! But in far more respects, they're exactly the same. :hmmmm

I don't condone refusing to deliver their leaflets, on the grounds that you disagree with their policies. Personally, I work indoors, not on Deliveries, so it isn't something which I've had to face. But if I was, and I worked in an area with a lot of people who didn't fit in with the BNP's opinion of British people. Then I WOULD refuse to deliver them, on the grounds that they would be offensive to the people I was delivering to. A COMPLETELY different issue. :hmmmm

That's not censorship. It's being sensitive to the feelings of those you're delivering to. And besides. Someone else would deliver them anyway. I just wouldn't have it on MY concience. :hmmmm

The issue i have is why they are subject to your enrichment test in the first place,when nobody else is.
Not any sort of "test" just debate re politiican's-speak on here. The indigenous population (however you choose to interpret that particular term) aren't under debate; the BNP don't target them,as already said.
If you have any "issue" then why get involved in the thread?

It wasn't the BNP who posed the question...it was you.

Yes, as you can read above.. :crazy:
Nothing like stating the obvious, I suppose. Do the BNP post on here? I doubt it.

Depends what you mean. Yes we do have BNP members on here who post in a personal capacity but none that post in an official capacity much like any most other political/campaigning group you could mention. We even had a BNP candidate in the early days but they have not come back for a while.
