  Good news for Sharon there at Padiham. Im not surprised there though to be honest, as it has a reputation for being a kind of BNP sort of place, if you know what I mean. Often it is negative stereotyping really, but the facts are Sharon seems to do a good job for her people there. So much so that some Lib Dems were in trouble a few years ago for being supportive of the BNP candidate, perhaps one even signed the nomination papers or something which made the local newspaper.   I've been saying for weeks expectations are too high, and I think at the moment Im right. Lots of results to come in yet, but the BNP have been pulverised in some areas coming last or next to last in many wards according to some newspapers from around the country. There are though, quite a few highly respectable 2nd and 3rd places scattered about from what I can tell. I know that this time five years ago we would never have seen such figures, so on that kind of level we have come a long way and are the fastest growing force in British Politics.   I will await the finalities of the results before I break out any beers lol. The conservatives seem to be the ones scooping up at the moment. The two headed pony is switching turns again, and I expect the tories will comfortably win any future election. Then it will be business as usual, only slightly less faster.   I still have my fingers crossed that the BNP is finally going to kick the establishment parties in the bollox and give them a bit of pain, and I think a corner is turned in general, no matter what the results are.  We've yet to see the Euro's, but I suspect similar.   TF  I agree with this, the BNP won't win any seats in euro elections, but we really have come a long way already!!.
