so, the uneasy on the eye challenge that is nick griffin has been duly elected to represent me, my family and an awful lot of those that i know, in the european parliament. what does that say about us as a people? it says that if you repeat something, however untrue or inane, for long enough, it becomes the gospel truth. and everybody believes it.
