I read an article a few weeks ago in the Guardian that said the BNP did best in areas of high poverty rather than of high immigration...

Sometimes you will find (often in my region) they are the same thing. Now i'm not saying that immigrants are poor at all, just that your average Joe person probably isn't as wealthy as perhaps somebody who has grown up within the country.

true enough, the UK has awful inequality though, I reckon if people had more help and better education they would be more likely to see the benefits we get from immigration.

Yes maybe they would see the benefits, they would also understand the numerous problems associated with excessive immigration as well.
