I WAS dismayed to hear the news that even more BNP people have been elected when these people shout for a white Britain. Do they realise how many people of different races gave their lives for people like them during the Second World War?

My husband served with the Royal Marines and has nothing but the deepest respect for his comrades regardless of race or colour. I just hope that some of the people that voted for the BNP think about this.
