I have removed the above section. There are a number of reasons for doing this, and I don't attempt to prioritise them:

: - the section appeared twice. I'm sure this was an oversight, but at least one version had to go
: - nothing in it was sourced. Misplaced Pages is an encyclopaedia, and we need to be able to say where our information comes from.
: - to me, it doesn't feel as if this is the right article for this information. The tone of the existing article seems to be about British Nationalism in general, and admits of the possibility at least that there may be a left wing variety, but the new information is about parties which would happily define themselves as being on the right.

If the information can be ], then there's a place for it in wikipedia. But I'm not sure this article is the place.

DUP-UKIP-BNP Merger

I have removed the above section. There are a number of reasons for doing this, and I don't attempt to prioritise them:

- the section appeared twice. I'm sure this was an oversight, but at least one version had to go
- nothing in it was sourced. Misplaced Pages is an encyclopaedia, and we need to be able to say where our information comes from.
- to me, it doesn't feel as if this is the right article for this information. The tone of the existing article seems to be about British Nationalism in general, and admits of the possibility at least that there may be a left wing variety, but the new information is about parties which would happily define themselves as being on the right.

If the information can be verified, then there's a place for it in wikipedia. But I'm not sure this article is the place.
