It’s a bit sad to learn we now have a couple of racist BNP ninnies representing Britain in Europe. That’s democracy folks. However, if the London Assembly Member, Mr. Barnbrook’s performance is any indication, their contribution will be an instantly forgettable mix of embarrassment and unintended humour. They will contribute nothing of substance.
No need to get hysterical about the BNP’s vote-share either. Historically they’ve done a little better while Labour is in power, and particularly when the government is unpopular. Once the Tories are back in charge, the BNP will be back in the box.

Elsewhere Daniel Finkelstein, on the BBC’s results programme, made one of my favourite comments of the evening. He said that Michael Foot was perhaps one of the biggest winners of the night: Foot’s lamentable record of being the worst ever election loser for Labour having now been surpassed. Bravo.
...And isn’t Jeremy Vine annoying, prancing about the set in front of the computer graphics pretending to be Peter Snow. I suppose we should be grateful for small mercies: at least he didn’t put his silly cowboy suit on this time. The BBC’s Department for Dumbing Down must have gone to bed early.
