Has Nick Griffin been given an invite for Question Time?

Putting him on a panel of people widely seen as illegitimate and widely hated legitimises him? How?

At the end of the day (and other cliches) it's irrelevant if i would or if i wouldn't. Make it about that if you wish and ignore the political aspect of this.

I wasn't meaning to have a dig and at the end of the day is just a phrase I use a lot.

The other political figures on QT might be seen as illegitimate and hated by many but not nearly on the same scale as the BNP. Millions of people vote for the mainstream parties.

At the end of the day this isn't some point about principles, just a tactical question. If you want to debate it then put a point of view across. You seem to have a habit on threads of just putting questions at people rather than just saying what you think. It comes across as just trying to point score and a tad patronising.

According to Martin Webster, quoted on the LUAF blog, Griffin is issuing the invitations.

They seem to have a Daily Mail columnist on every other week, so is there any need to have Griffin on?

I doubt it
1. he would hopefully be no platformed in the studio on live TV
2. the BNP are not a big enough party to justify his inclusion
3. no other politican would share a platform with him

The BNP got more votes than Respect who have been on several times (and not just GG)

They could be chained together like Sidney Poitier and Tony Curtis in The Defiant Ones.

I'm hoping he'll be in the next Big Brother, along with that preacher with the hooks instead of hands.

LOL!!! Bring it on!

Aye, true that. They also have wee shites like Douglas Murray on too.
