as it would appear the site is left of centre,

what is your opinion off the goverment funding the unions?

Labour Government Paying Its Activists with Your Money : The British National Party

Casper

That’s a very unreliable description of this webforum’s political stance as this forum encompasses a wide range of views. The term ‘left of centre’ also arouses suspicion because I know you mean 'liberal left', but considering the BNP’s rather left of centre economic views, this can be cofusing.

Yes, perhaps some of us (including myself) are socially left wing, but I'm right wing economically. However, this forum appears to attract a disproportionately large number of BNP supporters.

Anyway, in answer to your question, I quite happen to agree with the BNP’s article warning us about how this Labour Government uses taxpayers’ money to fund Labour activists. Funnily enough, that is not the only report out there about this sham:

Fake Aid - How foreign aid is being used to support the self-serving
political activities of NGOs

I am left of centre. I don't think New Labour is left-wing and the unions generally are only out for what they can get for their members, they don't care about the wider society.

I can tell you now, that the unions are a good thing. Maybe not all, but they do their best for employees, who can be very isolated out there when faced with a big employee.

If that's the best the BNP can do.....!!!!!!!

It's mutual support. The Labour Party and a number of MPs are also funded by the unions.
