Nick Griffin claims to have made BNP more gay-friendly
British National Party leader Nick Griffin has admitted that he finds gays "creepy" and would ban civil partnerships – but claims he has removed the most homophobic elements from the party.
Mr Griffin spoke to Tory activist and blogger Iain Dale for Total Politics magazine and PinkNews.co.uk has been given exclusive extracts of unpublished parts of the interview.
He conceded that his party used to be "drastically" anti-gay but he now knows it has gay members, although he said it was a "don't ask, don't tell" situation.
Mr Griffin said of homosexuality: "It's unfamiliar, it’s odd and I’m afraid it is creepy. Grown men kissing in public is creepy to most people. You don’t often see it but if you do see it, it’s not a matter of homophobia, it’s odd and you have to explain it to little kids and so on – that’s strange.
