BNP calls on members to breed more after elections disaster

The British National Party has urged its members to procreate after it lost every seat it contested in the English local elections on Thursday.

The BNP fielded 99 candidates but did not win a seat. It lost the one county council seat it held in Lancashire, leaving Nick Griffin's party with just two councillors.

In a post on the party's website, members are urged to have bigger families to counter large families had by non-Britons.

Northernscot claims that 51% of the US population is non-white and says that to prevent the same thing happening in Britain, "BNP members and nationalists" need to breed more.

"I know, by now you will be giggling over this suggestion. But think about it, nationalists need to buck the trend of 1.8 children per white household. We need to aim between 3 and 4 children each if not more," he writes. "And the bonus is that making babies is fun! So fellow nationalists, less TV and more fun! Let's do our bit for Britain and our race."

He also suggested that increased immigration from Europe could also increase the number of white people in the UK.

"We must look at ways of building up the white population in Britain," he said, "There are a few ways that this can be done. Firstly immigration of white Europeans, although this causes problems in jobs and housing, in the end if they stay their children will slowly become pro-British, or their children's children will at least."

The BNP has three elected officials in the UK: Griffin as North West England MEP and borough councillors in Pendle, Lancashire and Charnwood, Leicestershire.

Matthew Collins, a former BNP member and now an anti-racism activist, said the post was an attempt by the party to get some attention after its poor election results.

"It's tongue in cheek but there is a serious point. Griffin is always going on about being outbred and in the past he has said members need to put away their boots and go and meet women. The problem is that your typical BNP member is a social pariah who is more into pornography than starting a family," he said.

The BNP's candidate in the South Shields by-election, Lady Dorothy MacBeth Brooke, was mocked on Twitter on Thursday for her decidedly non-white skin, with her deep orange fake tan being compared to an Oompa-Loompa.
