BNP leader Nick Griffin welcomes Australian politician Pauline Hanson's move to Britain
Source: UK Telegraph

"The decision by the controversial former anti-immigration Australian politician Pauline Hanson to emigrate to Britain has been welcomed by the BNP leader Nick Griffin, who said she would be a 'good addition' to the UK."

"It is not known where exactly she plans to settle, but she said she would consider buying a property in the English countryside. Mr. Griffin warned Miss Hanson to choose her new home carefully because Britain had become one of the "most overcrowded" nations in the world, thanks - he claimed - to the Labour Party's decision to admit "three million spongers".

"He claimed that more than 100,000 "indigenous" Londoners had fled the British capital every year over the past two decades.

"It has been a relentless flow because they can't stand living there and feeling like foreigners in their own city. I'd recommend she stay away from inner London and go off and find somewhere that is recognisably still British. Any of the smaller towns or the country, places you know you are in Britain and are not the Third World yet," he told the Sydney Morning Herald."

"Ms Hanson was popular with some Australians in the 1990s with her anti-immigration and trade protection policies, before losing her seat in 1998. At its peak, her One Nation party attracted a million votes. In 2007, she ran unsuccessfully for a national Senate seat, switching her target from Asians to Islam and calling for an end to immigration by Muslims to protect "Australian culture"."
