BNP coming to Bradford

I just read on ITN news that Andrew Brons of BNP Yorkshire and the Humber will be coming to Bradford. With Nick Griffin being egged by protestors in London, I fear the BNP won’t be getting a nice reception (not that they even deserve a reception) when they come to Bradford either and I suspect it will probably be worse than egg throwing.

Bradford’s reputation is in serious danger here because if there is the slightest attack on BNP when they come to Bradford, Nick Griffin and the media will pick up on this and Bradford’s reputation will be shattered (as if it’s not bad enough already). No doubt the BNP will want a possible attack so they have a reason to target Bradford’s ethnic minorities and portray them in a bad way to promote their party.

Just remember back to the riots of 2001, could the same thing be repeated again? As unemployment rates soar in Bradford along with racism and ethnic segregation the city is hanging of the edge of a cliff. The BNP are on their way. Disaster is inevitable.

What's with the pics??

Unfortunately, as much as I hate what the BNP 'really' stand for, they are entitled to go where they please. We can't really ban them as that wouldn't be democratic and would make a mockery of the system. The only way we can get rid of them is just to stop talking about them and for the major parties to tackle the issues that the BNP are passing off as ‘their concerns’. We will then not vote for them and hopefully they will then go back into obscurity.

I favour MI5 just making them 'disappear' (well they apparently nearly did it with Harold 'lets ship a TSR2 prototype to my commie friends - the Soviets' Wilson, and he was PM at the time). ;)

To remind us what Bradford is.

Well at least Andrew Brons is only visiting you- I'm stuck with him in Harrogate.

The second is a good photo, but the first shows us nothing except a Guided Busway.
Food for thought...

When we end up with a system of proportionate representation we'll end up with both the BNP and Muslim Council of Britain ruling us in a hung parliament.

We're all doomed.
The best thing would be if they held their meeting without any protestors and with no media coverage

Unfortunately the fascist UAF and ANL will turn up, the media will be there to record the inevitable and the BNP will cast themselves as the party being denied their right to free speech

A guided busway? It does?

Entirely agree with you, think the BNP are given far too much attention. I mean I'm disgraced and ashamed of how they got in here in Yorkshire, but if they weren't paid any notice they'd have very little to shout about. It is actually an error in media attention to crown around stories like this. The more you concentrate on people and stories like this, the more the group will grow in strength or the more likely it is to happen again. I'm sure this point was raised by an academic in regards to the personalisation and investigation into the life of a highschool serial killer I saw once on Newsnight. Do not give the story attention and similar events will not happen. However the media's goal in life is not for good, just for money.
Weird. My current essay is about Bradford and I have to mention the riots in some detail. I hope I don't have to add a couple of nasty sentences about trouble in 2009.

It did, but I took it off, but I've put it back so you can see it;)

Ah, well in that case that's Manchester Road, one of the major entrance roads into the city, seems to make sense as an introductory view.


Anyway, does any one know when the BNP are due so I can make an explicit date to hide under a rock?

Hide under a rock, or throw the rock at the BNP? :lol:

Last time BNP came to town in a big fanfare there were riots, and when you get graffiti like this:

of which I've seen two instances, you get the feeling there's still that idiotic minority ready to drag Bradford's name further into the dirt. I don't generally want to be around if such a thing happens, living on the edge of Lidget Green. Lashing out at the BNP only furthers their cause, it's all clever manipulation and incitement, don't play up to it and they have less of an argument.

We won't, We'll stick with First Past the Post no matter what. Even if the Lib Dems got in power they wouldn't bring Proportionate Rep' because they've managed to get in with FPTP and it would now give them a disadvantage.

P.S i wish the BNP would just realise nobody likes them and just grow up.
The problem is that some people do like the BNP. And I don't really agree with the people who say "it was a protest vote"- I mean there were like 15 parties on the ballot paper! If they wanted to protest there was a whole load of parties they could have voted for.

There should be a 'none of the above' at the bottom of the ballot paper. The problem would be that they'd probably win all the seats!
If there was that option though, what would be the point in going to vote?
Did anyone see the Orange order loyalist march in Leeds on Saturday? Many bald, thick-necked, overweight men, preparing to march less than a hundred yards from the Catholic Cathedral, and not a woman in sight. Each to his own, I guess.
No but I saw a UAF demonstration on Saturday in Victoria Gardens. With that, the ticket launches in Millennium Square there were police everywhere- the Orange Order rally must have added to it. Never seen so many police in Central Leeds before.

This option would only make sense in conjunction with compulsory voting, so that people wouldn't actually have to vote, just to turn up. Not a bad idea imo, too many lazy people out there who actually take pride in not voting and then have the nerve to criticize the government/council.

This is what the BNP are really about









Shocking stuff revealed from the The News of the World:

A LITTLE girl grins with glee as she holds a golly over a fire . . . while a jeering BNP politician finds the doll guilty of BEING BLACK during a vile mock trial and execution.

The baying crowd cheers when the toy - dubbed Winston - is condemned and dropped on to the flames to "die".

Goading on the assembled adults and kids the politician, a local council candidate, yells out these chilling words: "Let's get a real one . . . in the town we'll find one or two."

The sickening stunt was staged at the British National Party's annual FAMILY festival last weekend - yet the BNP insists it is NOT racist as part of its successful ploy to attract votes in elections.

Around 1,200 members converged on fields at Codnor, Derbys, for the Red White and Blue "fun" weekend. Our undercover reporter, posing as a supporter to gain entry to the members-only event, secretly filmed racism everywhere.

For £1 a go, people were throwing wet sponges at a man in a Barack Obama mask locked in stocks.

Elsewhere stalls were selling T-shirts with slogans like It's A White Thing and books such as Race, Evolution and Behavior - which insists whites give birth to larger-brained babies and blacks are prone to crime.

Supporters gave Nazi-style salutes and shouted Sieg Heil.

Cooked

And in the "political tent", party chairman and MEP Nick Griffin, 50, was setting out how his party would deal with proposed anti-discrimination laws forcing the BNP to change its whites-only membership policy.

He said: "Since if we want to survive we will be forced to let them in, the key will be before we do so to change the party - to ensure that whoever's coming in doesn't have any control."

Saturday night was the climax of the festival - and when the vileness reached its peak. Firstly, around 50 skinheads took part in a PAGAN ceremony to summon occult powers for their cause.

They chanted incantations as they passed around and drank from an animal horn filled wth mead.

Two hours later, local council candidates John Coombes, of Maidenhead, Berks, and Dick Hamilton of Marlow, Bucks, were sitting with others around a brazier.

Hamilton's ghettoblaster blared out songs supporting Hitler and attacking "ni**ers".

Then began the "trial" led by Coombes, 45.

A 12-year-old girl there with her dad (we are protecting her identity) held a golly called Winston over the fire as Coombes "charged" him with "mugging, rape, drug dealing".

He sneered: "Right Winston, you're about to get cooked. Anything else to say?

"Says he ain't a drug dealer. He thinks he's not black. He's charged with being black. Now get on there."

Skinhead Hamilton chipped in: "If he jumps off he's innocent." Coombes went on: "He's guilty, guilty as charged.

"Let's get a real one - in the town we'll find one or two. They'll also be guilty of the heinous crimes I charged him with - may God forgive your horrible soul." Coombes repeated the charges then added: "He may have appeared innocent to you lot but I'm sure he done lots of things wrong."

During the weekend the party's other MEP Andrew Brons used his stint in the political tent to compare Muslims to SMALLPOX during his speech.

He declared: "I'm less concerned about the presence of mosques than the presence of the people that use them. Being worried about the presence of a particular mosque is almost like looking at a disease like smallpox and saying it's a problem with spots."

Ex-BNP cultural officer Jonathan Bowden, 47, also attacked Islam, and dubbed Jewish Israel as "cancer".

He bleated: "The only way this (Muslim) problem will be solved is if they go back - go back to their civilisation.

"(But) we must renounce support for Israel. Israel is the cancer that lies at the heart of much of this."

And Greater London Authority member Richard Barnbrook joked about BLACKING himself up.

The deputy opposition leader of Barking and Dagenham council boasted: "I've got balls made of steel. In my own ward, if I go around naked, and put boot polish on my face, they'd still love me."

In the evenings, supporters sat round campfires venting hate.

During one chat, Stockport area organiser Duncan Warner explained to our reporter in sick twisted logic why using the word "P*ki" was OK.

"P*ki means pure. So why do you get offended when all that they're doing is calling you pure?" he whined. "You get called a P*ki, how can you get offended by that?"

Elsewhere party supporter Danny Marshall, and his girlfriend Bev boasted of using intimidation tactics to rid the village of foreigners who'd moved there.

Bev said: "Where I live is National Front. It's BNP. There's this black family that's just moved in from Nigeria. An hour later they were out . . .

"They were coming to nick our jobs. They had an hour to get out of their premises - from us people, ourselves."

Marshall said: "The Lithuanians and Czechs are sneaking in because they're white. You find the f***ers on the doorstep."

Bev added: "These guys from Poland came into Cotmanhay and did a car wash. Somebody wrote BNP on their sign - once that was there they were gone . . . guess who that was? Me and Danny. I wrote BNP."

Elsewhere another man moaned: "If things don't become any better, and I become older, so I'm 70 or 75, I'll take a GPMG (machine gun) - seriously, I'm not joking here - and I'm going to f***ing destroy lots of people."

Embers

On one occasion shouts of "Reds, reds" broke out.

BNP members grabbed hammers and axes then charged to the perimeter fence. A lone anti-facism protester trying to get into the festival was stopped by police before the thugs got to him.

During the weekend police arrested 19 of the protesters outside - and one BNP member.

Meanwhile, half an hour after the sick golly burning the BNP's London organiser Bob Bailey arrived.

With him was Griffin - who stated last October "the BNP is not racist".

Together they warmed themselves on the embers.
