In a move that will surprise many, the Anti Nazi League and the British National Party are to join forces.

A statement issued today announced the amalgamation with immediate effect. The new party will be known as BAMPL, the British Anti Mainstream Party League.

"For years we have been fighting each other and getting nowhere." said spokesman Stan Viscious. "In fact it has started to become boring. So to widen our circle of enemies we have decided to unite against the big three."

Sir Tarquin Knowall, Professor Of European History And Politcs at Oxford University said, "This move is not so surprising. You need look no further than World War Two. There was no difference between Hitler and Stalin."

A random member of the public, Robert Middleroad of Caterham, Surrey, said, "I don't know why this didn't happen sooner. I think I speak for the majority of people when I say that both parties are just violent, bigoted thugs."
