Stop the Nazi Festival!
Saturday 11 August 2001
Ring ANL on 020 7924 0333 for assembly details

The Nazi BNP have organised a two day rally in Wales. Nick Griffin the leader of the BNP has a farm Y Gribyn, Llanerfyl, Welshpool, Powys SY21 OJQ (01938 820 198 or 01938 820 560) and intends to hold the rally on an adjoining farm called Llechwedd-du.

Griffin is organising to bring in Nazis from across Britian to redirection points via his mobile (0781 332 8955) before ferrying them to the farm to listen to Nazi speeches and a presentation on White Slavery.

His mother Jean Griffin (1 Waterloo Terrace, Welshpool, Powys SY21 0JQ) is organising B&B accommodation for the Nazis (0700 900 2671) with the help of Griffin's wife who is a district nurse in Welshpool.

The BNP hotline boasts about the Red White and Blue festival. It is the only time in the year all the BNP Nazis are able to get together. The BNP hotline then plays the Nazi CD of the month by a band called Avalon. Avalon's most well known song was "Combat 18 are calling".

There is anger locally at this Nazi gathering. The National Farmers Union has urged its members not to cooperate with the BNP and the local residents from Welshpool, Newtown, Llanfair Caereinion, Llanerfyl, Llangadfan and Foel have written to the local paper as the "People of the Banwy Valley" stating their horror at the BNP event.

The ANL are assembling to stop the festival.
NOTE assembly details changed - ring ANL office for details. Transport from South Wales, the North West, West Yorkshire, West Midlands and London: contact office. The ANL demonstration is supported by local trade unions and Plaid Cymru, who don't want the Nazi BNP in Wales!

Stopiwch Wyl Natsiaidd y 'BNP'
Mae'r BNP Natsiaidd yn cynllunio gwyl deuddydd yn yr ardal hon.
Mae Führer y BNP, Nick Griffin, yn honni mai hwn fydd digwyddiad y flwyddyn i'r BNP ond mae e'n cadw'r lleoliad yn gyfrinach. Nid yw hyn yn syndod. Mae'r Natsïaid yn gwybod nad oes croeso iddynt yng Nghymru ac y byddai ffermwyr lleol yn gwrthod a darparu'r safle iddynt pe byddent yn gwneud eu cynlluniau'n gyhoeddus.
Mae'r BNP yn gwybod nad yw pobl lleol eisiau rali gan addolwyr Hitler yn eu hardal. Mae'r gwyl "Coch", "Gwyn" a "Glas" yn esgus i'r BNP ddathlu ymosodiadau a llofruddiaethau hiliol ac i wadu marwolaeth y miliynau yn y Holocaust.
Mae'r digwyddiad "teuluol" hwn mewn gwirionedd yn ysgol hyfforddi i droseddwyr Natsïaidd.
Nid ydym eisiau i'r Natsiaid ddod i'n cymunedau ni yn ddirybudd.
Rydym eisoes wedi gweld y trais y maent wedi ei achosi yn Oldham, Burnley a Bradford.
Mae Nick Griffin wedi ei ddyfarnu yn euog o ysgogi atgasedd hiliol ac o wadu'r Holocaust.
Roedd David Copeland, a gafodd ei garcharu am oes am y bomiau hoelion a laddodd dri pherson yn Llundain, yn aelod o'r BNP.

It certainly is extremly hypocritical of the IMC...which claims to support the idea of democracy.
Let the BNP red, white and blue festival go ahead. What are the IMC (which is nothing but a far Left front for marxist and other left organisations to spread their propaganda) afraid of?. It has to be said that the BNP have won signifcant support and as a result of the general election have a electroal mandate. SR isn't pro-BNP, NF or any other far Right organisation but we know that the role of the SWP/ANL in encouraging racial violence (i.e egging on asian thugs to riot, attack whites and destroy property) needs to be kept in mind. I think the visitors to the IMC site should also keep in mind that dismissing (e.g asian racist thugs not being refered to as "racists" in contrast to whites) asian violence against whites is counter-productive to race relations in many of the cities that experienced the troubles over the last few months. The left and liberal media (including IMC) talks about inclusion and the benefits of multi-cultural Britain...well start talking about the problems facing many white people.

Perhaps the IMC would like to explain why it claims to oppose the 'misinformation' of the mainstream media when it is itself promoting equal misleading propaganda (take Genoa and previous 'anti-globalisation' protests as good examples!!!) and totally one-sided news coverage. I kno what the IMC and what it's aims are...but come on...surely you can see the double standards???. Do you seriously think it does the IMC's image any good when it essentially justifies the violence from certain sections of the anarchist movement???.

To conclude i'd like to ask why in 'anti-capitalist' circles Zapatist rebels are held up as opponents of capitalism. What excatly has this separatist revolt (which is about the self-determination for Chippas and has nothing to do with anti-capitalism!!!) got to do with anti-globalisation?. Isn't this another sign of the far lefts hypocrisy...i.e "we'll support certain types of nationalism and particular separatist and terrorist groups when it suits us" (so much for internationalism and opposition to racial and ethnic hatred eh?). Explain Explain Explain?????
