UK Borders Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Austin of Dudley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills on UK Borders Bill.
What the hon. Gentleman is saying is getting dangerously close to justifying people voting for the BNP. People are right to be concerned about illegal immigration—I am concerned about it, too—but they are wrong to think that the BNP has the answer. The BNP believes that a person can never be British if they are black or Asian, even if they were born here and even if they have served their country in the armed forces. The hon. Gentleman would do well to condemn the BNP for its racist attitudes and say that there is no justification for voting for racists and fascists in Britain today.
