ACTION CALL ON FAR-RIGHT BNP 2007-09-18 10:14:00 The spectre of far-right politics taking hold in the county needs to be tackled with a campaign of communication and engagement, Llanelli AM Helen Mary Jones has said.The Plaid politician has spoken out against the BNP with next year's Carmarthenshire Council elections looming.She has warned against the "vile politics of ignorance" following the example of a Swansea Council by-election in July.The BNP won 226 of the 2,080 votes cast in Llansamlet. However, Labour held onto the seat, having secured 769 votes. "As we see from the Llansamlet results, the BNP intends to fight elections in South and West Wales," said Ms Jones."As politicians, it is our responsibility to talk to the voters and point out the facts in response to the lies peddled by right-wing parties such as the BNP."We must persuade people to go to the polling stations and vote. If people are ap
Solidarity with anti-fascists in Russia 2007-09-17 11:43:00 “International support is vital and valued” explains St Petersburg anti-fascist activist Bruno Garmson It is not easy being an anti-fascist in Russia
at the moment. We are under constant attack from racists and fascists
and we receive little or no protection from the authorities. Several of our activists have been murdered in recent years and even when the attackers are caught they often walk free with suspended sentences. The rapid decline of Russia’s fledgling democracy, marked by gross violations of human rights during the government’s Chechen campaigns, the granting by parliament of unprecedented powers to the secret service, the abolition of elected executives (governors, mayors etc), the introduction of censorship and political show-trials and murders have changed the political atmosphere. This has enabled nazis and their extreme-rightist allies to stage campaigns as well as using nationalism as an alibi to commit murders, many of which go unpunished. Outside Russia, thi
Sunderland BNP Organiser quits 2007-09-17 04:39:00 Ian Leadbitter, Sunderland BNP organiser, has now quit the British National Party.He announced this yesterday in the letters page of the Sunderland Echo and cited "differences" with others as the reason for going.Leadbitter,who is a taxi driver,fell foul of the local authorities in 2006 after upsetting autistic children that he had been transporting.He also abused several members of school staff.He was subsequently banned from taking the children to school.See:http://www.sunderlandecho.com/news/Radio-row-costs-cabbie-school.1943261.jp
East German police face neo-Nazi inquiry 2007-09-17 04:11:00 A PARLIAMENTARY inquiry has been launched in the eastern German
state of Saxony-Anhalt into allegations that police failed to deal effectively with neo-Nazi attacks.A spate of crimes, including racially-motivated assaults, has left some politicians worried about their region's reputation.Last month, a group of Indians were attacked in the small town of Muegeln in the neighbouring state of Saxony and in June, police in Saxony-Anhalt came under fire over their response to an attack on a troupe of actors.The inquiry will focus on the police leadership in the city of Dessau-Rosslau. Several newspapers have quoted an officer there as advocating "turning a blind eye" to right-wing crimes.Far-right violence is on the rise in Germany. Last year, it reached its highest level since reunification in 1990.Groups who work with crime victims have long said that the country's right-wing culture is institutionalised and criticise police and prosecutors for being slow to bring cases to court."We must

Racist group originates in Worksop 2007-09-14 14:19:00 IT has been revealed that the sickening Wolf's Hook organisation, which Sanderson, Pakulski and Parker-Brown belonged to, originated in Worksop. Notts Police confirmed this week, that the 'white brotherhood' was set up in 2004 by ex British National Party Activists, who preach the 'preservation of white racial purity'.Before the stabbing of Sanderson, police did not know the extreme group existed, and have since found out it has roots in our town, and that Parker-Brown is the woman behind its racist website.The truth about the hate-filled organisation only became apparent when police officers and forensic experts began looking around Pakulski and Parker-Brown's home."It was clear from the flags in the window and by all the posters on the walls that they were into some sort of nationalism," said a Notts Police spokesman."It was only when we started digging deeper that we discovered that a national racist group was operating in the area."The spokesman said that Paku Read more:Racist
Former BNP candidate is given an ASBO 2007-09-14 07:38:00 Pelsall residents have praised police, housing officers and councillors who helped evict and obtain an Antisocial Behaviour Order against a BNP candidate and his family who made their lives hell.But residents of Avon Crescent are still so fearful they asked the Advertiser not to print their names.Dominic Bugler, who stood in May's council elections on a platform of law and order, was given the ASBO last month after neighbours complained of 18 months of abuse at his family's hands. The conditions of the ASBO mean Bugler, his wife and two children, have been banned from entering the Heath End area of Pelsall, the Walsall Road and Norton Lane, plus Pelsall village and its High Street.One Avon Crescent resident, who wished to remain anonymous, said residents wanted to thank everyone who helped evict the family and obtain the ASBO."They have provided us with their utmost assistance and dedication and we cannot thank them enough," she said.PC Andrew Harman said the Bugler's landlord - Wal Read more:Former

Lots of Blood and Dishonour !!! 2007-09-13 12:26:00 John Pakulski, convicted of manslaughter WORKSOP man John Pakulski has been sentenced to six years in prison after admitting killing his friend at a party organised for members of the racist group Wolf's Hook. Pakulski, 55, stabbed Michael Sanderson with a kitchen knife on 26th November last year after he found his partner Catherine Parker-Brown, 37, 'in a state of undress' with friend Sanderson.Pakulski denied the charge of murder but admitted manslaughter due to provocation.Nottingham Crown Court heard this week that Sanderson had been at Pakulski and Parker-Brown's house on Carlton Road for a party on the night of the attack.Pakulski had gone upstairs and found the bathroom door was locked and realised that Sanderson and Parker-Brown were inside.He battered down the door and found his girlfriend with his friend, naked from the waist down, the prosecution claimed this week.The court heard that a violent fight ensued between the two men, which left Sanderson Read more:Blood
Charges brought against BNP German ally 2007-09-12 03:16:00 BERLIN • German
police have charged the leader of a far-right political party with inciting racial hatred after he recommended Adolf Hitler's former deputy for the Nobel peace prize. Police in the eastern city of Jena said yesterday they had filed the charge against
Udo Voigt, head of the National Democratic Party (NPD), after he proposed the late Rudolf Hess for the prestigious award during a speech last weekend. If convicted of incitement, Voigt could face a jail term of up to three years or a fine, police said. Voigt made the comment in Jena last Saturday as he marked the 20th anniversary of the death of Hess. That evening, a mob of 50 attacked and chased eight Indian men through the town of Muegeln, east of Jena. Chancellor Angela Merkel condemned the Muegeln attack, which has prompted a fresh round of soul-searching in Germany about far-right violence, and renewed calls for action against it.http://www.thepenins
Israeli neo-Nazi suspects charged 2007-09-12 03:11:00 Authorities in Israel have charged eight immigrants accused of belonging to a neo-Nazi gang, in a case which shocked the country. The group - all from the former Soviet Union - were charged with a range of offences, including aggravated assault and spreading racist material. They are suspected of attacking religious Jews and other immigrants and daubing Nazi swastikas in synagogues. The group's arrest sparked calls for changes to Israel's immigration laws. The youths, aged 16 to 19, were granted Israeli
citizenship under the Law of Return because at least one of each of their grandparents is Jewish. Shimon Weiss, the lawyer for the alleged ringleader, named in Israeli media as Eli Boanitov, said his client denied the charges against him. A report quoting Mr Boanitov's sister suggested her brother had once worked as an electrician in the Israeli prime minister's office. The grandmother of one of the suspects

Whoops they did it again !! 2007-09-10 10:49:00 We all know that Fascists are pretty stupid.Just look at Kirklees BNP who must be one of the most intellectually challenged branches in the whole country.However The BNP are a whole party of Bamber Gascoignes when compared to the muppets in the tiny British Peoples Party.Led by notorious glue sniffer Kevin Watmough of Redwatch notoriety and "Frosty Jacks" favorite customer Eddy Morrisson, The BPP in various guises have lurched and tripped towards idiocy on just about every possible occasion.Who could forget Sid Williamson National Inspector of the BPP (What exactly does he inspect ?)turning up at the Gay Pride march in Brighton this year to demonstrate against homosexuality.What happened to this great white warrior? He got his arse kicked and had to make a hasty retreat.They always make us here at KU chuckle,life wouldn't be the same without them.So without fail here is their latest installment of stupidity.The BPP produce a weekly e-newsletter called "Nationalist News"Miraculously it
BNP councillor loses appeal over assaults 2007-09-10 09:51:00 A MIDLAND BNP councillor convicted of assaulting his estranged wife and mother-in-law has lost an appeal to clear his name.David Enderby, aged 46, of Winyates East, Redditch, who is a member of Redditch Borough Council, was found guilty of three assaults, fined £300 and ordered to pay £100 costs.Enderby, who pleaded not guilty to the crimes, appealed against the conviction but a two day hearing at Worcester crown court last week resulted in the councillor failing to clear his name with all three appeals dismissed.The councillor was also ordered to pay £200 towards the Crown Prosecution Service costs.Enderby was convicted of attacking his wife Jane, mother-inlaw Noel Campion and a 14-year-old girl at a family birthday celebration in June last year.The original court case at Kidderminster magistrates court in January heard Enderby flew into a rage when he went into the party uninvited with presents, but was told to leave.The councillor - a vehicle tester for Land Rover in Solihull - a
Monument to Anti-Fascist Fighters Torn Down 2007-09-08 19:04:00 A monument to the British who died in one of the bloodiest battles of the Spanish Civil War fighting against fascism has been torn down by right wing extremists. The plaque, naming the 90 Britons killed while fighting for the International Brigades at the Battle of Ebro, was removed from the site and the area covered with graffiti proclaiming that the right wing Falange Part was “still fighting”. The Falange once provided the political support to Franco’s fascist-backed forces but is now fractured into several parties that play no significant role in Spanish politics. Campaigners have already vowed to replace the monument. Over 2,000 British volunteers joined the International Brigades after the civil war broke out in 1936. More than 500 were killed and many more injured during the failed attempt to stop the forces led by General Franco, with help from Hitler and Mussolini, from imposing a military dictatorship. Following the almost 40 years of dictatorship and the re-establishme Read more:Monument

Denial at war show 2007-09-08 19:00:00 The organisers of a military exhibition have been criticised after a BBC documentary found concentration camp goods on sale and revealed that neo-Nazis and Holocaust denier David Irving were at the event. The Panorama documentary, Weekend Nazis, aired on Monday, discovered a Bergen Belsen concentration camp trolley for sale and a stall hosted by Irving at July’s annual War and Peace Show in Kent. The military extravaganza includes reenactments of World War II battles where some groups dress up as Nazi soldiers and SS guards. Stalls at the event offer military memorabilia such as toy tanks, Nazi uniforms, flags, and Hitler mugs.But some were more controversial. One offered to stamp swastikas on 50p pieces, while a Bergen Belsen concentration camp trolley was on sale in another for £550.David Irving, who completed a prison sentence for Holocaust denial in Austria last year, had a stall at the event, offering his controversial books on revisionism.

Purge Latest: Griffin to discipline/expel Mike Easter? 2007-09-06 16:32:00 Thanks to Lancaster UAFIn a move that is so full of irony that the BNP had better check it for rust, news is emerging that Mike Easter
, election agent to leadership-challenger Chris Jackson, is to be disciplined for late submission of the challenger's election expenses to the party treasurer.One would expect a party that is a couple of months late with its own accounts submission to the Electoral Commission to have had more sense that to make itself a target for ridicule in this way but Nick Griffin
is presumably so anxious to punish those who assisted the challenger that he is prepared to ignore the laughs to get his revenge.Regular readers will no doubt recall his description of Chris Jackson's supporters as cranks, Hollywood Nazis, congenital losers, thieves and vermin - and all this in a single blog post - despite the fact that they included five founder-members, two advisory council members, three councillors, eight branch organisers and 20 election candidates.

BNP official arrested during campaign 2007-09-06 16:28:00 Whitehaven police arrested
a BNP official in King Street on Saturday.The Copeland organiser for the BNP, Clive Jefferson, had been giving out BNP literature to town shoppers as part of the by-election campaign for the Copeland Council Harbour ward poll later this month.Mr Jefferson was arrested after a member of the public alleged he had been threatening or abusive.Police press spokesman Ben Meller confirmed to The News that: “A 40-year-old man from Cockermouth was arrested for an alleged Section 4 public order offence. There had been reports the BNP had set up a stall in King Street. We saw copies of the literature and it was not regarded as being of a racist or hate crime nature. However there was a complaint from a member of the public of that he had been threatened or abused by a person at the stall.”He said the arrested man was released without charge but will have to return to Workington police station to answer bail on September 21.Mr Jefferson later said: “The complainant
Lecomber dragged out of storage to persuade Bowden to return 2007-09-06 16:23:00 Thanks to Lancaster UAFTony Lecomber, the former Group Development Officer in the BNP and Griffin loyalist, has a fine reputation. He has received two prison sentences of three years apiece, one for possession of explosives (caught en route to blowing up a left-wing group's offices) and the other for wounding a Jewish schoolteacher who he observed removing racist BNP stickers. These are just two of his twelve convictions (so far). He was finally booted out of the BNP after he was found to have approached Griffin's former bodyguard Joe Owens to attempt to persuade him to join a plot to assassinate leading government figures. Fortunately Owens realised that there was either an attempt at entrapment going on or Lecomber had gone insane and promptly blew the whistle on him.Following an attack on the BNP's 'election guru' Eddie Butler earlier this year, Lecomber was finally half-heartedly proscribed by the party.At the time there was all kinds of speculation about exactly why Lecomber Read more:storage

Anger as BNP targets town with racist video 2007-09-28 14:04:00 LOCAL politicians have slammed a disturbing British National Party (BNP) video
that is using Horley as a focal point to win support.The notorious far-right party has been blasted for "frightening people with factually incorrect information" by posting a four-minute film on video sharing site YouTube.They say it exploits serious issues surrounding the Horley Master Plan in an attempt to justify its bigoted policies, with the film itself featuring shocking racist terminology.And Councillor Mike Miller, ward councillor for Horley West, condemned the video as "a load of rubbish".He disputed the party's claims that 1,500 homes would be constructed in the northwest sector of the plan, and 1,100 homes in the north-east sector.Mr Miller said the actual figures are 1,400 and 700 respectively, with an additional 500 homes to be built on brownfield sites within Horley.And he added the party's views on race were "best ignored".A BNP activist unashamedly uses the phrase "white-flight" in the Read more:targets

Electors’ fury as councillor joins the BNP 2007-09-25 05:30:00 A ROW erupted yesterday after it emerged a community councillor co-opted as an independent had officially joined the far right British National Party. Patrick Pattison, 55, was co-opted without an election to fill a vacancy on the Llysfaen community council last November to represent the troubled Peulwys housing estate. But his move to the BNP sparked fury because electors were not given a chance to have their say. Yesterday leader of the Conservatives in the Assembly Nick Bourne said voters had a right to expect to choose their representatives wherever possible in a ballot. He added: “If BNP supporters stood in elections as councillors inevitably they would be beaten by all the other established political parties. “I would like to see that happen because I hate their message of bigotry and racial hatred and there is no place for the BNP in the political life of a civilised society.” Welsh secretary Peter Hain said he was concerned that unelected, if co-opte
Walkout over Nazi taunts 2007-09-25 05:19:00 HUNDREDS of workers building one of Wales’ biggest engineering projects downed tools last night because one was allegedly taunted with Nazi salutes.An estimated 300 people at the coastal terminal for the trans-Wales liquefied natural gas (LNG) pipeline, near Milford Haven, took action in support of worker Omar Mohammed.Mr Mohammed’s colleagues stopped work at the South Hook site on Thursday, with some walking off site yesterday, after claims that management repeatedly failed to act on his allegations of racial harassment.It has been alleged that two workers made Nazi salutes at him, spoke to him in a mock German accent and pointed a hammer at him as if it were a gun.Union leaders yesterday said fellow workers had been left “aggrieved” at a perceived lack of action from the two men’s employer, Taylor Woodrow.The Western Mail understands the two have been suspended on full pay pending inquiries.“For nine days I went through the proper channels,” Mr Mohammed, 65, from Cardif Read more:Walkout

, the BNP’s “Legal Eagle” may be the Nutzis very own version of haemorrhoids. But we’re a little concerned he may be losing his grip. Or as one Stormfronter wrote today, "[Bagel]Barnes has gone totally bonkers"Were he actually a member of the BNP instead of we presume, a Griffinite sycophant and hanger-on, Barnes would surely rival Mark Collet as the least liked party member; a real pain in the arse, no less.There’s something about Barnes you see, that riles the Nutzis in the BNP (and indeed all of the other satellite shysters,) because far from being a Devils Advocate that introduces political debate for the politically dead to wrangle with, Barnes inflicts upon the far-right views that are (even) to them mostly repulsive.Barnes is billed by his small army of followers (his mum and dad mainly) as some sort of radical free-thinking, far-right modernist. He bills his blog as "a synthesis of the best of history with the needs of the future." Get

Since then, it has been confirmed that party management has been handed over to a three-person team - Tony Brewer, Martin Clutterbuck and Michaela MacKenzie - though the party has stayed remarkably tight-lipped about Cass and has av
BNP IN CRISIS 2007-10-01 11:40:00 Searchlight has learnt that there are serious and major splits within the leadership of the British National Party. Nick Griffin won the party’s leadership election with 91% of the vote but he is now facing a far more serious challenge from within the party’s own Advisory Council, its leading body. Full-time officers have resigned and others are openly speaking out against the party leader. Over the past three weeks Searchlight has been sent a number of documents that throw light onto these splits and the personalities involved. We have also received some evidence which, if genuine, exposes financial irregularities at the heart of the party. The November issue of Searchlight will carry a special report on the internal strife in the BNP but if you cannot wait that long, please keep checking this website.http://www.stopthebnp.org.uk/
Thursday's by-elections - nondescript performance by BNP 2007-10-01 03:43:00 Thanks to Denise G There are just three local council by-elections on which to comment this week, the British National Party contesting two of them but failing to put in a promised appearance in a third.Both seats the BNP did contest were virgin territory for them, leaving us unable to measure their performance against previous outings.Chester-le-Street Central ward saw a strong Labour vote on May 3rd, its two candidates garnering 42.07% and 39.52% respectively, leaving a lone Local Conservative to scrape a meagre 18.12%. Thursday
's contest was more straightforward. In a dismal 25% turnout a single Labour candidate took nearly 60%, and while the Conservatives lost 2% on May, the intervention of LibDem and BNP candidates sucked enough votes from Labour to give them 14.89% and 9.38% each.Chester-le-Street Central ward result (percentages on right): Lab 324 59.56 Con 88 16.18 LibDem 81 14.89 BNP 51
Discredited Irving plans comeback tour 2007-10-01 03:28:00 · Historian blames Himmler, but not Hitler· Writer freed from jail says views have 'crystallised' Ten months ago he was languishing in an Austrian jail, less than halfway through a three-year sentence with his career - and professional reputation - in tatters.This week David Irving, the discredited British historian who was described by a high court judge as a Holocaust denier and a racist, says he is launching a comeback
with a speaking tour of British cities and a series of new books. "I have kept a low profile for several months because I have had to sort out where to live and to address my financial situation," said Mr Irving, who was declared bankrupt in 2002 after an unsuccessful libel action over claims he was a Holocaust denier.

Leader backs frontbencher over views on BNP voters 2007-10-01 03:21:00 David Cameron yesterday backed a Tory frontbencher who sparked controversy by claiming that BNP voters had "some very legitimate views
on race and crime".Race relations campaigners attacked Sayeeda Warsi's comments, but the shadow community cohesion minister insisted she was no apologist for the BNP.Two years ago the gay rights group Stonewall criticised "homophobic" remarks in her election leaflets. Some Tories were concerned by her sudden elevation to the shadow cabinet - and the Lords - this year. While her confident campaigning has won admiration, critics see her tendency to speak her mind as a mixed blessing.Lady Warsi attacked the BNP's "race [and] hate agenda", but added: "There are a lot of people out there who are voting for the BNP and it's those people that we mustn't just write off. "They have some very legitimate views - people who say, 'We are concerned about crime and justice in our communities, we are concerned about immigration in our communities.'"The controvers Read more:Leader
