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.

Lede

This sentence in the lede does not actually make sense:

As Britain has been the place where both Conservatism and Liberalism have grown, Nationalism has been new to both the 20th and 21st century ever since the collapse of the British Empire, mass immigration, globalism and the EU resulting with extreme opposition from Nationalist groups such as the National Front which gained mass support in the 1970s and today's British National Party. Some elements have occurred in the United Kingdom Independence Party where they have eschewed the EU and have a 5-year pause on immigration.

I am removing it. It needs re-writing if it is to be included.BobFromBrockley (talk) 15:03, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
