NP Rank:
Nick Griffin, the leader of BNP is said to be officially a gipsy, according to researchers. The 1871 census records revealed that Griffin's ancestor's were gypsies who lived in caravans and peddled their wares in different locations.
This came as a surprise since Mr Griffin claimed "travellers are anti-social criminals who have no place in Britain". He has made no bones about kicking out gipsies, black, and other ethnic groups out of Britain.
It is interesting to wait and see what Nick Griffin's reaction to this new fact will be.

Lol, that's such a good strategy to perform with racists: dive in their family history and you'll find foreigners

Far be it from me to defend Nick Griffen, but I'm just not seeing any truth (or point) in this. But, even if it is true that Griffen comes is Romany - it neither deters from, nor adds to, the fact that he's a racist bigot.
