Nearly 9% of the North East vote went to the BNP, up by 2.5%. Fuck you, area. Fuck you.
On the plus side they haven't won any seats here... one each to Lib Dems, Tories & Labour. Here' hoping that keeps for the rest of the country. /xfinger
ETA: Shit... it's looking like they'll get a seat from Yorkshire.
ETA2: OH FUCK NO. The BNP gain their first EU seat. Thank you very much, Yorks. :[
ETA3: Griffin is in too. FUCK.
ETA4: Changed title as I ignored Hanlon's Razor in my anger. Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
ETA5: The joy of anagrams... how apt that "Nick Griffin MEP" can be transformed into "I'm 'n effing prick." :]
