I'm not sure it's respecting the BNP, it's showing respect for the system. NG might be a vile human being, but when he's doing his job in the way he's allowed to, he's acting as a representative of such. Not physically attacking elected representatives (assuming they aren't acting outside the reasonable bounds of that job) is something of a point of principle with me too.
Not to mention that these idiots have actually gone and made Griffin look as if he's been telling the truth all these years! GAH! The man's probably been rubbing his hands together in utter glee all afternoon. Making Nick Griffin happy is not high on my list of priorities, funnily enough.
