Bankrupt the BNP!

(A) Sab x | 19.11.2009 08:32 | Anti-racism

Just came across this on another IMC site - might be worth doing as the BNP are already on the verge of bankrupcy! (a group I belong to subscribe to their e-newsletters, and everyone is a desperate plea for more cash)

Well, maybe not quite bankrupt, but folks in the UK can help make this bunch of fascists considerably poorer.

They've just got themselves a freepost address:

British Heritage FREEPOST

Nice and easy to remember eh? Every 'letter' to this address costs them 42p, and can simply be an empty envelope with the address on it. It's cheap to buy a bunch of these (you can get 50 self-seal ones for 75p from Wilkos) and run them through your printer while you're off doing far more interesting things. A friend has so far sent 1250 envelopes, costing the fash over 500 quid. That's less than £20 of my mate's hard-earned cash very well spent!

Please feel free to join in.

Good Idea

19.11.2009 08:47

Apparently Royal Mail will deliver anything with an address on it, (to a freepost address), so cheap envelopes are good....but maybe something a bit heavier might be even more effective?

I heard a rumour that our friends at "British Heritage" are collecting broken fridges, washing machines and cookers...although remember this is just a rumour, so please confirm with them before sending them anything as they might not actually want people posting them heavy broken kitchenware ;)

My first dump of the morning can be quite heavy. I wonder how much the Royal mail would charge. I know the BNP are already full of shit but every little helps.

A slight wrinkle

19.11.2009 09:26

I like it :-) However, I believe that the receiver of the mail can say "This month I've had so many posts that are 'abuse'." - these are then deducted from the bill - I believe though only up to a point so the idea is still a good one. :-)

A suggestion is to make sure the envelopes look different (Handwriting envelopes obviously has issues)! Then the fasch have to open each one just in case it is relevent to their grubby activities!

If the address is run by Dowson - I wonder would the bill be going to the BNP or Dowson?

No mention of retrieving DNA from stamps and you can lift DNA in many ways, no need to lick.

Stamps and police?

19.11.2009 23:04

Stamps? Hello, it's FREEpost.
Police? Um, pretty sure sending mail to freepost addresses is still legal
Which just leaves the bnp's crack forensics team dusting for fingerprints.
Nice one 'true brit', i think i'll rest easy in my bed tonight

True Brit? True Twit...

20.11.2009 15:35

Ah, I could almost picture 'true Brit' sitting in his armchair after a hard-day-not-at-work- because-everyone-from-everywhere-has-stolen-his-job, spitting feathers into his copy of the sun, kicking the staff, giving Kylie a slap and shouting at the kids Britney and Dwayne, after someone has taken a swipe at his beloved little racist (anti) social club..
Anything, and I mean absolutely ANYTHING that costs those sexually repressed, socially inept, intellectually devoid and all round fucking shit on the bottom of your shoe Bigots Nobodies and Perverts (and their pathetic splinter groups) time money, inconvenience and cause to lose support amongst possible gullible converts, is lets face it, a wonderful thing.
Oh, and while im here - to their nasty small minded kiddy fiddling / sex case leaders, dont forget - yours is definately in the post.
True Brit - You are a cock.

Your letters can be traced

21.11.2009 12:15

Keep sending us letters then we can have your letters traced and have you all prosecuted under the malicious communications act! You forget that the Royal Mail can trace letters and can also have you identified by your handwritting etc.

Excellent idea, and sending mail to a freepost address is NOT a crime.

Now I have something to do with those thousand envelopes I found
