I suspect you may well be right.

I'll go one further on the contentious side of things and say that 'pure fascism' is prefable to merely scapegoating one group of people; fascism, in the proper sense, in the literal sense, needn't immediately mean 'racism' (although that's one consequence of the political system, particularly when it's married to an ideology). Political ideologies, are, in themselves, a fairly 20th-century idea.

I get a bit excited by words, how they're used, and what they represent. It's one of my bags.

EDIT: oh, sorry incomplete response - the BNP are one concerning but relatively minority aspect of 'racism in the UK'; there's a subcurrent of 'iffy political stances' which complicate matters. I have issues with liberals alienating themselves from the 'absolute' notion of 'racism'; I can't propose a be re-orientation of personal/ local/ national identity politics, but I can point at hot-spots of concern.
