BNP leader Nick Griffin has tried his hand at becoming a TV chef, releasing a step-by-step guide to making beef stew entitled ‘Recipe for beating the Tory blues’.

Griffin, who was recently declared bankrupt, released the video through BNPTV just before Christmas and appears in his Aga-equipped kitchen wearing a rugby shirt and swigging beer throughout the episode.

He kicks the video off by saying he wanted to show BNP members how to make food cheaply after some of them complained ‘their wives can’t afford to put enough decent food on the table’.

The stew’s key ingredient is, of course, British beef, but Griffin also includes plenty of ‘traditionally English’ root vegetables.




As well as informing viewers of how to make mace using just soda water and Tabasco sauce, the charismatic presenter shares such culinary tips as, ‘Different things make different times to cook, so you’ve got make sure that the things that take the longest are done first.’

Threatening that he’d liked to do more recipes if this one goes down well, he adds: ‘English cooking is back at the top, where it should be.’

He then explains the etymology of ‘curry’ to convince us that we don’t need immigration.

‘Incidentally, the word “curry” first appears from a cookery book during the reign of, I think it’s Richard II, 13th century… so don’t let people tell you that you have to have huge numbers of immigrants to have good cooking,’ he says.

‘We’ve got a Mexican restaurant in a town not far from here. The place isn’t swamped with Mexicans. You take the recipe – that’s really all you need.’
