Looking at the “literature” so kindly provided by various political parties, there was a sudden heart-stopping moment.
One election promise speaketh thus:
The BNP will stop politicians mugging Middle England with stealth and council taxes to pay for spongers.
I missed the memo when Glasgow North East became part of Middle England.
Oh hell, I’m a foreigner.
And one with brown spots, which that lot won’t like much. :eek:
I wonder where they’ll deport me to.
Scum
Do you suppose that was a misprint, and they meant “Middle-Class England”?
Or is that so obvious I’m ruining the joke, here? Never mind me, I’ll just be moving on …
Gotta love the BNP and its thorough knowledge of the country it adores so much.
Thankfully, they’ll never succeed in getting an MP.
Vote Monster Raving Loony!
Um, no joke involved - that really is what their vile little leaflet says. OK, I cannot expect you folk from the Unseen University to know or care much about the UK, so here goes:
The BNP (“British National Party”) is a very far-right and racist organisation.
As seosamh remarks, they must be SO very busy saving Britain from these scary hordes of immigrants and refugees that they haven’t bothered to learn much about Britain at all. For instance, that Glasgow, where I live, is in Scotland, not in England, you see.
Or maybe they are just too stupid to learn anything.
Now, if they’d relocated me to Middle Earth, that might have been cool.
) You’d get bored awfully fast, I tell you! )No - ‘middle England’ is a fairly common term. It does mean middle class, but also small-C conservative (as opposed to us Guardianistas of the middle classes 
). ‘Average Joe’ is perhaps the American parallel.
And here was me, thinking this would be a dull boring thread about boundary changes in the Scottish constituencies …
I’m still angry that my two wards were merged into one. :dubious:
it’s more of a state of mind, like “la France profonde”
