PAYPAL SABOTAGE OF BPP!


Our reply to the latest Paypal refusal to allow the British People's Party to sell its merchandise through PayPal despite our having nearly a year of unproblemed trade with them.

Dear Kevin,
Thank you for your reply. Firstly let me restate that WE HAVE NOT VIOLATED or are in any violation of the User Agreement and Acceptable User Policy.
I quote:-
Under the Acceptable Use Policy, PayPal may not be used to send or
receive payments for items or in support of organizations that promote
hate, violence, or racial intolerance.
I do not feel that the BPP site promotes hate, violence or racial intolerance. I have examined every part of the site and I can say that there is no incitement to violence of any kind on it. Secondly, we do not believe in racial hatred and discourage this in our supporters - we believe in racial seperateness as a path to STOPPING racial hatred. It is the forced integration of different ethnic peoples AGAINST their wishes that promotes racial hatred. We promote LOVE of our own people! As for racial intolerance, we are indeed against our present UK Government's immigration policies BUT we do not promote racial intolerance, we only outline the unfair way the Government our own country promotes racial intolerance towards it's own people by refusing them a say in the immigration policies of this country.
PayPal allows many sites all across the political spectrum to use it to sell merchandise reflecting all sorts of opinions and ideas. BPP merchandise reflects only patriotism and a love for our own people. Neither does anything we do in selling British patriotic merchandise benefit anyone convicted of a felony or any other criminal act.
Why we have been SELECTIVELY banned from using your services is a mystery, when you allow groups from extreme Communists to other varying ideologies to openly sell through your PayPal system.
We feel MOST STRONGLY that it is we who are being discriminated against by PayPal who are taking a POLITICAL stance over what is a purely commercial arrangement and one in which we have had no trouble until we suspect someone in your organisation of a diffrent left-wing persuasion took exception to us ON THIER OWN TERMS or listened to some extreme left-wing partisan compaint against us.
We would ask you to point out exactly which items of merchandise are breaking your User Policy? You can see them at www.bpp.org.uk under Merchandise.
We would also yet again ask you to reinstate our PayPal account and let us get back to a happy and trouble free trading arrangement which we have had with you for over a year. PayPal is a commercial business and should be non-partisan. It reflects badly on you when you suspend accounts for purely POLITICAL reasons when we are sure we do NOT break your rules of acceptance.
Thank you,
E Morrison
National Political Advisor,
BPP.
