BNP win 3 seats

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Friday May 03, 2002 12:14author by terry connolly - swp Report this post to the editors

bnp elected

In the british local elections the BNP has won three seats. one of them is in burnley.
The success of le pen has given them more confidence. The result of this confidence has been more attacks on jewish places particulary in london. As when derek beacon got elected in millwall racists attacks skyrocketed.
This proves the danger of giving these fuckers the oxygen of publicity.

The BNP would get lynched if they strayed into republican areas of belfast, event the loyalist paramilitaries dont like them, apart from UFF c company, who have been banished to Lurgan, to shelter with other special branch agents.

BNP would get lynched if they strayed into republican areas of belfast, even progressive loyalist paramilitaries hate them, with the exception of UFF/LVF C company whove had to flee their derelict wasteland/stronghold in the lower shankill, to join other special branch informants/robin king in Lurgan, where they are hoping to rebuild their snowy white empire, and lay loyalist areas of lurgan to waste as well.

From above...

"This proves the danger of giving these fuckers the oxygen of publicity."

And today I heard FG gobshite saying that "we shouldn't not talk about suicide because we make it happen more when we do"

What is the bloody world coming too! These people should get publicity so we can all realize what crazy fucks they are and how psychologically messed up their pro nazi thinking is.

As for Nonan FG, do you think that magpies give you spiritual guidance? Talking about issues gets them into the public for debate and concern, it gets people THINKING! Sorry, but according to FG, you can't think for yourself.

Nah, give the fuckers a bit of publicity, but make sure thay get a bit more publicity when thay are shown up to the no hopers that they are. But if they preform well kill them and stop the messin'around.

GOd bless Fidel.

Don't want to make a big deal out of this cos we all know nazis are nothing more than human swine. I just think that the nazis should not be given a platform. The guardian has been falling over it self doing interviews with the BNP youth leader, and every day reports about the bnp giving them some form of repectability.All the articles gives the softcore get the feeling of repectability, the hardcore members encouragement. Lets not forget that these people want to smash self activity, smash working class opposition. The whole point scott is that journalists can uncover the true nature of the nazis i dont think you really believe you can win them over with force of arguement.
point is behind respectability lies the jackboot. time to bury the the nazis forever. time to bury capitalism. terry

The thing about the BNP is that they have only won 3 council seats in the entire of England. Now don't get me wrong, these nazi scum are not fit to hold public office no matter how bad the Blairites are and no matter how few other alternatives there seems to be.

However the BNP have been afforded publicity that is completely disproportionate to their size. Its almost a wonder that with such publicity and dissilusionment with Blair that they only got three seats.

With that said I don't think there is any place for complacency when it comes to the far right. When the National Front arrived in towns across France the Communists often laughed at the prospects of them gaining a foothold. Now the National Front controls some of these towns while the Communists, once France's largest party, got only 3.6% of the vote in the Presidential elections.

Of course the question is how to combat the far right and unmask their politics without just giving them more publicity, hype and attention.
