David Cameron called yesterday on voters in next month's English local elections to support any party other than the far-Right British National Party.Please note: That the mainstream parties - Labour, Conservative, and Liberal - are becoming ever more fearful and desperate at the prospect of significant gains by the British National Party (BNP) is obvious. When people like Cameron call out for voters to vote for any party but the BNP, something is seriously wrong. Cameron is the second to raise the spectre of such gains in less than a week.
The Conservative leader accused the BNP of "thriving on hatred" and wanting to set one race against another.
"I hope nobody votes for the BNP. I would rather people voted for any other party," Mr Cameron told Sky News.
His remarks reflect growing alarm among mainstream parties that the BNP is poised to make gains on May 4 when almost 23 million voters in London and in borough and metropolitan councils go to the polls.
A YouGov survey for The Daily Telegraph today suggests that millions of voters are not enamoured of any of the main parties.
Fewer than one voter in five wants the Conservatives to control their local council. The same small proportion wants to see Labour in power locally. Still fewer fancy the Liberal Democrats. Cameron calls on voters to back anyone but the BNP
If the mainstream parties are fearful, then you can bet your bottom dollar that the British electorate is both fearful and desperate: fearful of what the mainstream parties have turned this 'Sceptered Isle' into, and desperate to find someone with enough courage to fix the problem.
The fact of the matter is clear and simple: The mainstream parties are guilty of a dereliction of duty. If the British electorate becomes desperate enough to look for radical and extreme solutions, the main parties have only themselves to blame.
It is high time that politicians of all hues - red, blue, and orange - do a bit of serious contemplation. It is also high time that they stop the spin and find their backbone. Without backbone, there will be no solution. Beware: The electorate will tolerate this nonsense no longer!
By the way, just in case you didn't know who Cameron is, he is the increasingly unconvincing leader of the Conservative Party! The man who used to think of himself as a "media tart"!

Mark,.. I am glad to see your scorching analysis tackling the major issues we are facing in the UK.
Voter apathy is paralysing our land into acceptance of a yoke the weight of which is such, that when the oxen's back is broken, it is hard not hard to imagine the potential calamity we face.
Not hard to imagine, but terrible to contemplate.
At best we may face a curfewed police-state as a last resort to preserve security. At worst, I wish not to think on over my coffee.
It will take more than caffeine to wake our somnulent political pocket-liners.
While they argue whether Cameron's Lexus 3.5 litre car is "green" enough or whether fatty-tank-head John Prescott should keep his Jaguars, the World is perceptibly crumbling around them.
Perhaps it would have been kinder if a crack in a globally-warmed melting glacier, could have swallowed up Cameron, before he wrecks whats left of the Conservative party.
It does illustrate his dumbness, to fly by kerosine-hungry private jet to see for himself the melting ice-world of the Arctic, an act that was worthy even of a Labour minister!
Just another PR man. Just like most of the Labour cabinet are just another lawyer.
One thing they all share is how to make a pile for themselves,.. looking after number one is there prime mover, whilst bullcrapping the public is the other.
trouble is, their masks are slipping and people are beginning to yearn for something more basic and honest.
Will the BNP give the public what it wants?
Maybe not this time, but I hope they give the "hogs in the trough" a good kick up their corpulent backsides!
"ANOTHER FINE MESS YOU GOT ME INTO"
