If we all stopped going on about them they would probably both go away.
Looking at the bloggesphere recently, you might be forgiven for thinking that the two biggest issues facing British politics at the moment are the BNP and Derek Draper. They're not!
DD and the BNP have a lot in common. Both think that they are right, and they're not. Both generate a lot of heat but very little light. Both are from the authoritarian left and neither deserve anything like the amount of coverage that they get.
I feel that both have the right to have a voice on the Internet, and I have the right to completely ignore what they say there.
Think of it like a scab on your knee (remember when you were small?), the more you pick it the worse it gets, ignore it, get on with something more positive and it goes away quicker than you would ever have imagined.

Bravo James! Well said! Tp
Don't mince your words James, just get straight to the point.
Seriously though I think that metaphor really does sum the two up.
Bit contradictory really. Advertising that which you purport to ignore.
0/10 for consistancy James
Good old racial discrimination. Stands firm in the left's tradition of equality and anti-racism.
James, Whenever I see Draper can I wave a placard and shout 'Scab! Scab! Scab! Scab!'? I'd enjoy that.
Best post I've read this week, to be sure!
Draper is like the extra pint at the pub, or a cream cake with lunch - yes, I know I shouldn't have them and I agree that ignoring DD would be best but I can't help it - watching him get angry is fun, reading people insulting him is fun. I know it's bad but I keep going back for more
