FUCK FASCISM, FUCK NAZISM AND FUCK THE BNP

Info | 03.06.2009 11:34 | World

Fascism is an Ideology based on racism, nationalism, and the supremacy of the state over the individual.

In October 1990, the BNP was described by the European Parliament’s committee on racism and xenophobia as an “OPENLY NAZI PARTY”… whose leadership have serious criminal convictions”. When asked in 1993 if the BNP was racist, its deputy leader Richard Edmonds said, “WE ARE 100 PER CENT RACIST, YES”.Founder John Tyndall proclaimed that “MEIN KAMPF IS MY BIBLE”

TO VOTE FOR THE BNP IS TO VOTE FOR RACISM.. DO THE RIGHT THING.

DO THE RIGHT THING, DONT WASTE YOUR VOTE, DONT VOTE FOR THE FASCIST BNP, VOTE FOR A BETTER BRITAN NOT A WORSE ONE..

According to the BNP 2001 general election manifesto, “native Britons”, who they claim can only be white, would be given priority in the job market. “Non-whites” would instantly become second class citizens in Britain.  http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/static/in_depth/programmes/2001/bnp_special/roots/2001.stm

Any black person who commits a crime would also be thrown out of the country, even those who were born here.

Mixed race relationships would be outlawed.

According to party number two, Tony Lecomber, the preservation of the white race can be done through a racial eugenic programme

The BNP supported ethnic cleansing in the Kosovan crisis. “The Serbs’ real crime isn’t the harshness with which they have expelled so many of the Albanian Muslims who having become the majority in the Kosovan heart of Serbia by a mixture of immigration, a high birth rate, and low level ethnic cleansing of the native Serbs… No! The real crime in the eyes of the powerful advocates of a multi-racial New World Order is for any people to demand the right to preserve their own identity and freedom”.

Former National Organiser Richard Edmonds was convicted for his part in a vicious bottle attack on a mixed race couple in a pub in East London 1993.
The British National Party (BNP) is a whites only far right political party in the United Kingdom, It has around 48 councillors in local government in England, but is not represented in the Parliament of the United Kingdom. In the 2005 UK general election, the BNP received 0.7% of the popular vote..According to its constitution, the BNP is “committed to stemming and reversing the tide of non-white immigration and to restoring, by legal changes, negotiation and consent the overwhelmingly white makeup of the British population that existed in Britain prior to 1948.”

The BNP proposes “firm but voluntary incentives for immigrants and their descendants to return home.” It advocates the repeal of all anti-discrimination legislation, and restricts party membership to “indigenous British ethnic groups deriving from the class of ‘Indigenous Caucasian’”

The BNP asserts that there are biological racial differences that determine the behaviour and character of individuals of different races. THE PARTY CLAIMS THAT PREFERENCE FOR ONES OWN ETHNICITY IS A PART OF HUMAN NATURE. Historically, under John Tyndall’s leadership, the BNP was OVERTLY ANTI-SEMETIC; however, under the leadership of Nick Griffin, the BNP has focused on Muslims. The party has said that they do not consider the Jewish, Hindu or Sikh religions to have a significantly detrimental or threatening effect, although the BNP DOES NOT ACCEPT PRACTISING Sikhs, Jews and Hindus as CULTURALLY or ETHICALLY British..

The BNP has been known to work with EXTREIMIST Hindu and Sikh groups opposing Islam and has actively tried to win Jewish votes by supporting Israel and playing on Islamophobia…

The BNP is opposed to mixed-race relationships on the stated ground that racial differences must be preserved; it argues that when a white person produces a mixed-race child, “a white family line that stretches back into deep pre-history is destroyed.”

Nick Griffin describes his views on race as follows: “… while the BNP is not racist, it must not become multi-racist either. Our fundamental determination to secure a future for white children is restated, and an area of uncertainty is addressed and a position which is both principled and politically realistic is firmly established. We don’t hate anyone, especially the mixed race children who are the most tragic victims of enforced multi-racism, but that does not mean that we accept miscegenation as moral or normal. We do not and we never will.”

In areas that the BNP target, such as Barking and Dagenham, racist attacks and other hate crimes increase

Nazism came to stand for a belief in the superiority of an Aryan race, an abstraction of the Germanic peoples. During Hitler’s time, the Nazis advocated a strong, centralized government under the Führer and claimed to defend Germany and the German people (including those of German ethnicity abroad) against Communism and so-called Jewish subversion.

The various aspects of Nazi ideology were combined to form a political programme, the concepts merging and supporting each other. Nationalist feelings linked with the racial prejudices of Nazi ideology. Nazi belief in a master race of Aryans, represented by people of ‘pure’ German stock, supported Hitler’s policy of Lebensraum (‘living space’). As the Nazis considered that Aryan Germans were superior to other races, such as the Slavs of Eastern Europe, they felt justified in annexing neighbouring states to reduce the overpopulation of Germany. Anti‐Semitism was a key principle of Nazism; any failure on the part of Aryan Germans was blamed on the Jews. They were accused of being part of a worldwide conspiracy to destroy Germany, in league with the communists. To save the purity of the Aryan race and the strength of the German nation, the Nazis believed that the Jews would have to be removed from German society.

The BNP, its former leaders and present leader, Nick Griffin, have PROMOTED ANTI-SEMITISM and HOLOCAUST DENIAL or revisionism in the past. In 1996, writing in his own publication, The Rune, Griffin stated that:

“I am well aware that orthodox opinion is that six million Jews were gassed and cremated or turned into soup and lampshades. I have reached the conclusion that the ‘extermination’ TALE IS A MIXTURE OF ALLIED WARTIME PROPAGANDA, EXTREMELY PROFITABLE LIE, AND LATTER WITCH-HYSTERIA.” The following year, during a Cook Report documentary he stated: “There is no doubt that hundreds, probably thousands of Jews were shot to death in Eastern Europe, because they were rightly or wrongly seen as communists or potential partisan supporters. That was awful. But this nonsense about gas chambers is exposed as a total lie.”  http://news.bbc.co.uk

Holocaust Deniers. The BNP, and especially Nick Griffin, are close to many of the world’s leading Holocaust deniers. Robert Faurisson, one of the foremost Holocaust deniers, was a star witness at Griffin’s trial for racial hatred in 1998. The German Gunter Deckert, who has been to prison for denying the Holocaust, spoke at a London BNP meeting in 2001. Even the British Holocaust denier and antisemite, David Irving, has addressed BNP meetings and his recent imprisonment in Austria sparked protests by BNP members in London. When Irving was jailed in Austria for denying the Holocaust a number of people including the BNP’s Richard Edmonds staged a demonstration outside the Austrian Embassy. Amongst them was Irving’s chief cheerleader Lady Michele Renouf. Although officially barred from addressing the Croydon BNP recently many BNP members still flock to hear Lady Michele Renouf speak at other far right events.

David Copeland, who exploded a nail bomb at the Admiral Duncan pub in the heart of London’s homosexual community, was a former BNP member. Although the BNP distanced itself from Copeland, Griffin wrote in the aftermath of the bombing that homosexuals protesting against the murders were “flaunting their perversion in front of the world’s journalists, showed just why so many ordinary people find these creatures disgusting.” http://news.bbc.co.uk

In 1998, HEAD OF THE PARTY Nick Griffin was convicted of violating section 19 of the Public Order Act 1986, relating to incitement to racial hatred. He received a nine-month prison sentence, suspended for two years, and was fined £2,300.

Tony Lecomber: Group Development Organiserm 1980s – Two convictions for criminal damage. 1985 – Convicted on five counts for offences under the Explosives Act. 1991 – Sentenced to three years’ imprisonment for an attack on a Jewish teacher.

Involved in fascist politics since the early eighties. Ex-member of the National Front and the New National Front. Inaugural member of the BNP. Previously edited the journal Young Nationalist, a heavily racist and anti-Semitic magazine.

Andy McLorie: Regional organiser for Ulster.. 1986 – Sentenced to two years in jail following a petrol bomb attack on the home of an RUC officer. 1980s – The National Front Ulster organiser.

Colin Smith: Regional organiser for South East London… Has multiple convictions, including possession of an offensive weapon, driving whilst disqualified, and possession of a controlled drug.
In its 1997 general election manifesto the BNP pledged to ban homosexuality “…driving these revolting practices back into the closet where they belong”. When the BNP was first elected in Burnley, it ran a gay pub landlord out of business.  http://www.uaf.org.uk/resources/LATESTnewsletter.pdf

The BNP has been accused of having links with Loyalist paramilitaries in Northern Ireland

Nick Griffin is a Cambridge graduate, and the current leader of the BNP. He has been involved in far right politics for the past twenty-seven years. For most of that time he was in the National Front. He was a firm believer in racial separation and in the Jewish global conspiracy. Griffin, like others in the National Front, claimed the Holocaust did not happen.

While Griffin was still a leading figure in the National Front, he was a close associate of Roberto Fiore, an Italian who, having fled to London, was convicted in absentia of belonging to the Nuclei Armati Rivoluzionari, a terrorist group that was alleged to have carried out the Bologna massacre, which killed 85 people and injured 200 others in a railway station. However, no connection to the bombing was ever proven, and the case is still open

The BNP has attempted to cultivate links with right-wing organisations overseas. The American Friends of the BNP was originally set up as a fund raising branch. The AFBNP co-ordinator was Mark Cotterill.

Panorama has obtained videos of a number of AFBNP meetings. The main topic of discussion at these private gatherings was the preservation of the white race.

Australian Friends of the BNP was set up last year by an ex pat called Mark Wilson. He is a former BNP organiser from Hertfordshire.  http://news.bbc.co.uk

The BNP are profiting from the media campaign which feeds a hostile climate against Muslims. The BNP called the 2006 election a “referendum on Islam”, and describes Islam as “a wicked, vicious faith”, perpetuated by rape. It made its gains of four council seats in Bradford and Keighley in 2005 against the backdrop of racist allegations that exclusively Asian men were preying on under-age white girls, grooming them for sex. The police have stated that the BNP’s claim this crime was being committed by any particular ethnic minority is false.

WORSE STILL HOLOCAUST DENIAL!
On anti-semitism In 1997, Nick Griffin published a booklet entitled “Who are the Mind Benders?”. It claimed to prove that Jewish people controlled the British media and thereby were able to brainwash white British people into accepting multiculturalism.

In 1988, The Sunday Times revealed that Holocaust News, a publication that claimed the holocaust was an “EVIL HOAX”, was being published by the BNP’s then deputy leader, Richard Edmonds.

WANT THE TRUTH ABOUT THE BNP ADVISORY COUNCIL APPOINTED BY NICK GRIFFIN:  http://news.bbc.co.uk

The British National Party is claiming that 400,000 ballot papers in the London election were officially declared “spoilt” because of “massive and organised ballot box tampering”.

According to a statement on the BNP website, this went unreported by the media “because the most likely target of said suspected vote tampering or ‘ballot box stuffing’, would be the BNP.”

They Overlooked the fact that “stuffing” ballot boxes with spoilt papers would be rather pointless, the reason the media did not report this is because it is simply not true.

Each voter had three ballot papers covering the constituency vote, the London-wide list and the election for mayor. In the constituency poll there were 47,799 spoilt papers, less than 2% of the total votes cast. The London-wide list results recorded 41,489 spoilt papers, amounting to 1.69% of the total votes. And in the mayoral election 41,032 papers (1.67%) were rejected in the count of first choice votes.
That adds up to 130,290, a long way short of 400,000 BBC undercover documentary: The Secret Agent – Involved in far right politics since the early 1980s. Ex-member of the openly nazi British Movement before leaving to join the BNP in the early 1990s. 1981 – photographed wearing a British Movement jacket with a swastika armband at a British Movement rally.

Paul Golding: Director of Publicity.. Though only 20 years old, Golding produces the bulk of BNP propaganda and designs the monthly magazine, Identity. August 2000 – Attended the Bleu, Blanc et Rouge festival in France held by the right-wing Front National. Golding has been pictured with FN leader Jean Marie Le Pen.
