Ultra nationalist (racist and intolerant) political party BNP (British National Party) for the first time last week took stage on a nationally televised political discussion forum, Question Time, following a controversial invitation from the BBC to party leader, Nick Griffin.
The protesters outside all BBC buildings throughout the UK would have felt that any publicity for an extreme right and historically racist and violent political group, would be publicity the world doesn’t need.
I would tend to agree, but at the same time it might have proved a good opportunity to show the BNP and their racist supporters what the world think of them.

Throughout Thursday night and Friday twitter was a storm with the controversial appearance, with people sharing their disgust towards Nick Griffin and the BNP, and mock them for their twisted values while at it.
This video edit sums it up…
What do you think? Was the BBC right to invite him to the programme?
