Seriously. I'm glad they exist. They help to keep the bigoted extremists out of the main parties (who do actually have some power and influence over what goes on in Britain). Between the BUF and NF eras, there were high-profile bigoted extremists in the main parties, i.e. Enoch Powell, George Brown (to an extent), etc. Between the NF and BNP eras (for the sake of the argument, i'll say that the BNP "era" is from around 2005-present), there were also high-profile bigoted extremists in the main parties, i.e. Norman Tebbit, Maggie Thatcher, i suppose you could say......, etc.
