<<The ideas of the French Revolution surely had more impact on the creation of USA than the English colonial activity.>>
It's the other way around, cupcake. The American Revolution had a significant impact on the French Revolution....which came later.
<<The manual describes the BNP's "ultimate aim" as the "lawful, humane and voluntary repatriation of the resident foreigners of the UK".
"We don't subscribe to the politically correct fiction that just because they happen to be born in Britain, a Pakistani is a Briton. They're not. They remain of Pakistani stock," he added. >>
The idea of "repatriating" a person who has never even been to the country that is supposedly his "patria" is most amusing. I hope the Navajo and the Cherokee never get it into their heads to try to repatriate the rest of us "non-native Americans". Imagine the pandemonium that would ensue if they were to ship us all back to our ancestral countries of origin. Imagine the clusterfuck to even trying to figure out WHICH country of origin to dump us on -- most of us are of such mixed ancestry that 4 or 5 nations might be called upon to share custody! And would any of these nations really be prepared to accept the influx of their share of 300 million strangers? Dear god!
One wonders exactly how well the BNP has really thought through the idea of making historical ancestry a benchmark of Britishness. And if they wouldn't mind opening up their guest bedrooms to a quarter of the American South ... all long-lost cousins, of course!
