I was just telling my old mate Ernesto I had booked a short break in Krakow next week as a post-election wind down. "Take some of your new colleagues with you" he said, "they were there in 1939!"
Anyway, I can agree with at least some of what one newly elected BNP councillor says:
Russell Green, who won a seat in Sandwell, said: "After tonight's results we can all see that the BNP is on its way.
"It is plain to see that the vast majority of us are sick..."
