Cavey Oct 2009 9:03pm, 21 Oct 2009 9,663 posts	0 Cavey I hate everything he stands for. But he should be given a chance to make a mug out of himself, like the Deputy Leader did on Jeremy Vine's show the other day!

McGoohan Oct 2009 9:06pm, 21 Oct 2009 2,800 posts	0 McGoohan I don't thing there's an easy answer here. Ban him and you suppress free speech; let him on and the Beeb are giving him a free platform.

Cavey Oct 2009 9:07pm, 21 Oct 2009 9,664 posts	0 Cavey I will not be able to watch though, for fear of kicking my television set in!!!
pato1967 Oct 2009 9:07pm, 21 Oct 2009 744 posts	0 pato1967 was the listening to the lib dem bloke who is going to be on Q time being interviewed yesterday and it sounded as if he was confident he was going to wipe the floor with Griiffin. If Griifin gets a kicking from everyone else thats on then in IMHO it's a win/win situation .... BNP can't complain about not getting on the programme and they also get made to look like the narrow minded biogots they are

swittle Oct 2009 9:08pm, 21 Oct 2009 4,094 posts	0 swittle Whatever the arguments, a sufficient number of people within a certain European Parliamentary constituency expressed preferences which allowed Mr Griffin to become a MEP. In terms of publicity, his party will now receive this whether or not its leader appears on this programme.
