Regarding the title of this thread which asks if the English Democrats "are finished?"
I can remember some people saying (after General Elections Labour lost) that that party "was finished." I advised those who made such remarks that Labour was not "finished" and that one day they would be the Government again. As (sadly) they are now (if you can call this shower in power a Government).
The English Democrats are not "finished" just because their London Mayoral candidate has resigned from their campaign. Many people quit the Labour Party in the early 1980s (including leading figures in that party) to join the europhile SDP. Labour survived that split and has now been back in power for a decade. The SDP, of course, has ceased to exist.
London Mayoral Election 2008 candidates: Richard Barnbrook - British National Party, Gerard Batten - UK Independence Party, Siān Berry - Green Party, Alan Craig - Christian Peoples Alliance and Christian Party , Lindsey German - Left List, Boris Johnson - Conservative Party, Ken Livingstone - The Labour Party, Winston McKenzie - Independent, Matt O'Connor - English Democrats, Brian Paddick - Liberal Democrats.
