For the first time in BBC history British National Party leader, Nick Griffin has been given a chance to present his platform on Question Time.

Nick Griffin will take part in today’s edition of the show with the likes of Justice Secretary Jack Straw, Tory peer Baroness Warsi and black American writer Bonnie Greer.

Gordon Brown reportedly agrees with the BBC’s decision, (despite huge opposition from the likes of  labour MP Peter Hain), saying it was time the party showed the country what it stood for.

Many people have questioned whether or not this is ethcially a wise choice due to the party’s policy on race- but arguably tonight will reveal all- with such a diverse panel it is sure to make televsion history.

and im sure it won’t harm tv ratings either…
