The British National Party claims to be standing up for Britain but nothing could be further from the truth.

Its leaders would have opposed fighting Hitler's Nazis during WW2, have refused to support the England football team and claim that no Asian or black person, even if they are second or third generation, can ever be British.

Here is the BNP in its own words: BNP leader Nick Griffin admires Hitler. "At 13, I read Mein Kampf [Hitler's autobiography], making notes in the margins. The chapter I most enjoyed was the one on propaganda and organisation. There were some really useful ideas there."

So does Mark Collett, the BNP's head of publicity. " Hitler will live forever; and maybe I will."

Six million people were murdered in Nazi concentration camps but BNP leader Nick Griffin has denied the Holocaust took place. He once said "It's well known that the chimneys from the gas chambers at Auschwitz are fake, built after the war ended."

He has even claimed that the concentration camps were built by British soldiers after the war.

Winston Churchill led us to victory over Hitler. However, Mark Collett once said: "Churchill was a f****** c*** who led us into a pointless war with other whites [ie the Nazis] standing up for their race."

Private Johnson Beharry received the Victoria Cross, saving the lives of 30 comrades in Iraq despite being injured himself. The BNP dismissed him as "an immigrant" who only received a medal for doing something "routine".

At a recent World Cup, the BNP refused to support the England football team because it had black players. The BNP does not believe that any black or Asian person can ever be British. BNP leader Nick Griffin branded the brave Gurkhas "mercenaries" who should not be allowed to come and live in Britain.

The NHS survives thanks to the work of black and Asian doctors and nurses. The BNP's racist policies would destroy the NHS.

The BNP is happy to accept an invitation to the Queen's Garden Party but really they hate the Royal Family. The BNP's Mark Collett said: "The Royals have betrayed their people. When we're in power they'll be wiped out and we'll get some Germans to rule properly."

The BNP tries to portray itself as the patriotic party that cares about Britain, but there is nothing pro-British about it. The British are a proud, tolerant and fair people. The BNP spreads hate, division and intolerance.

The BNP use WW2 imagery to suggest they are the heirs of the heroes who fought and died from 1939 to 1945. Nothing could be further from the truth. BNP members are the fascists a generation of Britons died fighting against.
