I wasn't suggesting a witch hunt. The material is already widely available on the internet. As membership of a fascist party is forbidden in many jobs, and potentially problematic in others,I think its original publication and subsequent posting was and is in the public interest. I for one would want to know if a workman I employ or a doctor I visit is a BNP member in order to protect my family. I believe its fairly easy from ordinary political canvassing to determine peoples voting patterns so I see no issue with BNP supporters being identified. Presumably if they get as far as membership they are proud to hold their views?
It wasn't so long ago that you had to declare membership of the Communist Party of Great Britain on job applications and that this was forbidden for many taking up public service posts, so revealing BNP support is to me fair dos.
No doubt there are inaccuracies and many of the phone numbers and email addresses have been changed since earlier this year, no doubt having been already widely used by protesters since publication.

I do find it interesting that the entire Griffin family appear to live in Wales, not England, as the Welsh, and the Cornish, are surely as far as I recall descended from Celtic invaders from what is now called France. Their profile as a family is very interesting and not just a little horrific. Nick Griffin is a wealthy, privately educated Cambridge graduate. They are not thick and stupid people in the traditional sense which makes it all a bit more scary. I think people should Google them to see just what we are dealing with. There are various ways of opposing them and I think people need to choose what they are comfortable with, if they are so inclined.

I vote and always will because I grew up in a community where many people were deprived of the right to do so for so long (Northern Ireland)- but am glad that people are still given the choice and I wouldn't want to see compulsory voting. How can that be helpful? People will just go in and spoil the ballot paper or more likely, vote for marginal parties such as the BNP to get their own back. It must surely skew results in other countries that have it.
