I find some updates on that close relationship:

BNP election hopes marred by dodgy fascist pals of leader Nick Griffin - mirror.co.uk

Convicted criminals, Nazi skinheads, violent thugs... not exactly the type of people you'd want to be pals with.

But this motley crew of racists and fascists are Nick Griffin's closest European buddies.

...HUNGARY

Zoltan Fuzessy is vice president of Hungary's ultra right-wing Jobbik party - but lives in the UK and has fostered close links with the BNP.

The father-of-two ran an anti-Jewish hate website until last year and has spoken at BNP meetings.

Jobbik - Movement for a Better Hungary - uses Nazi insignia and has been linked to a deadly series of grenade, petrol bomb and gun attacks on Hungarian gipsies.

But all that did not stop Griffin speaking in front of 5,000 Jobbik supporters last year at a rally in Budapest, where he shared a stage with notorious Hungarian racist Gyorgy Budahazy.

When a bunch of fascist yobs were arrested after going on the rampage Griffin toured the police stations where they were being held.

The BNP leader insisted he was trying to ensure they were given "due process" and decent treatment.

Last year Budahazy showed his true colours when issuing a joint communique with another fascist leader, Laszlo Toroczkai, calling on Hungarian racists to disrupt the annual Budapest gay parade.

"We will not permit aberrant foreigners of this or that colour to force their alien and sick world on Hungary," it said.

(I shall note for the record:

1. They don't use Nazi insignia, they use the Árpád-stripes flag, which was also used by the local allies of the Nazis, the Arrowcrossers.
   
2. I haven't heard of links to the still unknown culprits other than inspiration, by generating anti-Gypsy hatred.
   
3. I mentioned Griffin's appearance at that rally.
   
4. I note that Budaházy & Toroczkai, the leaders of the far-right rioters, are in effect a rival group to Jobbik, which prefers 'respectability'.
   
5. Even the Independent doesn't bother with writing foreign names correctly... Zoltán Füzessy, György Budaházy, László Toroczkai.)
