Belfast attacks and recent BNP victories in English/MEP elections; are they, in any way linked?

The part of South Belfast (where the attacks happened - and racists threatening to cut a Romanian child's throat) have had their fair share of ultra right-wing Combat 18 leaflets put through their letterflaps over the months...and with Nick Griffin MEP visiting BNP Call Centre in Belfast recently, what do the people of Ulster think of their part of their world being under a microscope again...just over three weeks away from the July Marches?
