The Prime Minister is thought to be "deeply concerned" by the continual rise of the support base of the BNP in the forthcoming European Parliamentary elections in June.

The internal poll conducted by the Prime Minister has projected that the BNP could take up to 7 seats in the European elections, capitaliasing on the weakness of UKIP with an estimated 5 per cent of the vote going to the extreme party in the June euro-elections.

The News of the World is projecting that the BNP will scoop up to £4 million of funds from the EU if it was to win 7 seats in June.

Increasingly the BNP has been winning support from working class Labour supporters and disillusioned Conservatives who believe the party's line on immigration is "too weak".

The London stronghold of the BNP is Barking and Dagenham were the number of foreign workers has increased rapidly and the BNP have made full use of this in propaganda to exploit local people.

Success for the far right in the UK could be higher than previously calculated. According to John Charmley and other academics & journalists www.globalpolitics/ukfarright/9876483, the BNP could win up to 18 seats in the European Parliament this June. The more established UKIP is believed to lose all the 12 seats they had won five years ago. The problem for mainstream parties, however is the more the far right is talked about and talked up, the more chances they have of actually winning in these sorts of figures.
