I have reached the conclusion that the 'extermination' tale is a mixture of Allied wartime propaganda, extremely profitable lie, and latter witch-hysteria"?
Or have they become so disillusioned with the mainstream parties that they feel a vote for the rebranded, nice, clean, shiny BNP, that does not use overt racism would best represent their views?
I suspect the latter, and am saddened by it.

Some of them may well have read the BNP manifesto, which obviously does not contain some of the extreme views you highlight. That manifesto might well appeal to many - how should I put it - British people.
But I suspect you are absolutely correct that it is reaction to the obvious failings of the mainstream parties and their representatives.
