Comment submitted to Nigel Hastilow's blog

"I'm sorry that the "Enoch was right" hoo-ha has so quickly turned into yesterday's news despite my best attempts to keep it live. You should have waited for the Tories to sack you, Nigel, and embarrassed the Cowardly Camoroners for as long as you possibly could, and highlighted the issue of Free Speech and Immigration for a bit longer than just a long weekend!

The latest post on my blog today 15 November is evidence of my continuing interest in your political career:

"Let us not allow Nigel Hastilow to become yesterday's news! He may yet be the prospective parliamentary candidate for UKIP or the BNP.

POLL 1: Should Nigel Hastilow have said "Enoch was right"?

POLL 2: Should Nigel Hastilow have stood by his comments and waited to be sacked (thereby prolonging media attention on the issue of free speech and immigration), instead of resigning so soon?

POLL 3: Should Nigel Hastilow remain loyal to the Conservative Party that sacked him as its Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for saying "Enoch was right"?

POLL 4: Should Nigel Hastilow join UKIP?

POLL 5: Should Nigel Hastilow join the BNP?"

Those who want to vote should go to my blog to get the clickable links to
those polls on the 15 November entry.

The BNP/UKIP candidature question is of course a bit of a contest of competency on Internet-savviness.

Do Netphobes and Net- incompetents deserve to win anything when we all know that the future of political activism is online?

Does the Darwinian theory of survival of the fittest and most adaptable to change apply to political ideologies and the quality of its practitioners?

I quote:

"The quality of the membership of any party depends on the degree of struggle there is. Success merely leads to softening and poor quality membership. Strife breeds toughness, keenness and alertness."

And I quote again:

"A man of good character without necessarily great insight into things is always better than an intelligent man without much character."

And I quote yet again:

"Politics turns more on character than intelligence: it is courage that conquers the world!"
