far-right in Cumbria

jimbob | 19.02.2004 17:46

"Party 'right of BNP' to stand in Cumbria" EFP are putting candidates up for the June european parliament elections.

in the lastest east cumbrian Gazette (19th feb 04) there was an artical called "Party 'right of BNP' to stand in Cumbria" which states that the England first party (EFP) are putting candidates up for the June european parliament elections.

according to the artical, the party (if you can call it that), says it's the U.k. arm of aryan unity. although the chances of them getting in are slim to nothing theres still a chance which is worrying.

it is known that the BNP are putting up candidates for both the european and the local elections (both in june) for seats in Cumbria.

with the bnp gaining seats in councils last time around notably in Lancashire (next door) theres more of a chance that the bnp, rather than the efp, will gain some seats here in cumbria.

with national front (nf) gaffiti and stickers all round the city and 'bussines cards' of the bnp in the city library left on the tables they are putting their awful messages across spreading their hate and racist lies.

june will be here before you know it and if the far-right get a foot in the door we only have ourselves to blaim.

the time is now to organise against this threat. we live in a mult-cultual muti-ethnical country (that has been this way since day dot) which makes it the great place that we all live.

these are strange times and action is needed

Quote: "they are putting their awful messages across spreading their hate and racist lies." That is exactly what people on the left such as the SWP do about Israel. There is even an anti-Israel picket every week by a far left group outside Marble Arch Marks and Spencers. The left are also followers of Karl Marx who was himself an anti-semite and wrote a book called "The Jewish Problem". If anything it is the far left which poses the greatest threat rather than the far right. For example the far left Militant controlled Liverpool City council of 1983 to 1985 bankrupted the city with their overspending. Left wing regimes have also always led to tyranny whenever they have come to power. For example Robert Mugbee's socialist regime in Zimbabwe, and Castro's Cuba have been great disasters.

a race war is being fostered by the powerful
...those with political will.

don't succumb to the political games that are being played...

remember there are real people being
effected by intolerance and bigotry...
violence and hatred...THIS IS TERRORISM

Micheal Howard and Tony Blairs corporatist
YES MEN should be ashamed that
the UK [has become?] is an undemocratic sham...

observe them hiding behind the BNP
as they introduce far-right policieson the back of
a fake terror war...

war is peace
freedom is slavery
work makes you free
peacekeeping force
unlawful combatent

love and peace

A candidate from 'England First' (I think) is also standing as a candidate in Heysham West wards here in west Lancashire. The candidate is at Lancaster University and is also a member of the ultra-right White Nationalist Party, with links to members of Combat 18. The local parties are getting together combined statements again the party, and activists from University, town, @narchist group and Anti-Nazi League (not an SWP front here) are together leafletting every house in Heysham this weekend...

CAUTION - DO NOT EMAIL, POSTER COULD BE REDWATCH

21.02.2004 16:15

DO NOT EMAIL THE ABOVE EMAIL ADDRESS

It's highly likely that it is one of Tony White's email addresses (of redwatch.org fame)

never let facts get in the way of a good troll

solo has clearly never read Marx's "The Jewish Question", otherwise he would know it's a short essay, not a book.

You can read it at the Marxist Internet Archive:
 http://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1844/jewish-question/

Instead of taking other people's word for it that Marx was an "anti-semite", why not read for yourself what that thoughtful Jew had to say about Judaism and the future of human liberty.

and wanting to do something about it
