WHEN ADOLF HITLER, the world famous landscape painter, and later politician, was fortunate enough to appear, in 1933, on Zeit für Fragen, a German version of the BBC programme Question Time, it is said that his popularity increased by over forty percent, thus convincing him that his future was in politics and he could concentrate on decimating the population of Europe and forget all about kunst.
NICHOLAS JOHN “SPITFIRE NICK” GRIFFIN may have been similarly persuaded; not that he will cut with the kunst, as I believe he has never been interested in anything artistic, but he will certainly be encouraged by The Times informing us that one in five “Britons” are now considering voting for the British National Party. Indeed, similar polls suggest that up to two thirds of people in Britain believe the two main parties are out of the zeitgeist in relation to immigration.
EIGHT MILLION PEOPLE watched Mr Griffin on Question Time, a programme usually condemned to an audience of about six or seven thousand people, most of whom are bearded university students studying politics, history or law, and thus not representative of the lumpenproletariat by any stretch; the figure made this the most watched BBC programme of the week, outstripping the absurdly popular Strictly Come Dancing.
THE MESSAGE IS CLEAR: when the average person is as equally willing to watch an utterly non verligte politician spout curious opinions as they are ready to watch young long-legged ladies twirling about the dance floor shaking their derrière and with their mammaries hanging out of their tight-fitting sequined tops then the big hitters in Westminster ought to look over their shoulders. So at a time when Gordon Brown and David “Dave” Cameron are arguing about whether they should appear on TV for debates, the answer should be clear to them: do it gentlemen, do it in leotards and show us your Ding an sich.
