North Essex: BNP pledges more candidates
THE British National Party has pledged to put more candidates up, after its first unsuccessful electoral outing in north Essex.
The far right movement's Patrick Sullivan was beaten into fourth place after standing for election to Colchester Council, but at 131 votes, polled more than the Labour and Green candidates in High Woods.
Regional organiser Eddie Butler said Mr Sullivan "did well" and he would be "the first of many candidates" in north Essex.
A message posted on the Gazette's website on Friday said the party would look to field candidates in St Andrew's and St Anne's wards next.
Mr Butler said: "We fully expect to have more candidates in Colchester and Tendring at the next elections, and I'm sure we will make a breakthrough soon."
The BNP claims to have "hundreds of members" in its north-east Essex unit.
"Our unit has only been established for six months and is getting some of our best recruitment figures," he said.
"Colchester and Clacton are full of people who have moved out of east London to get away from the problems there, and are ripe for our message."

Sounds very much like a threat from Giles, above.
Yes, I'm very pleased the BNP is making progress in my part of the country. At last people are being given the chance to vote for a real alternative to the corrupt bunch that are ruining this country.

The vast majority of society know what the BNP is and what they stand for- a lot of the xenophobic nonsense they have within their manifesto is inciteful and myopic.
However, providing they stick within the law, they should be allowed to advise on whatever policies they like.
If people don't like it, they don't get elected. Simple as that- I don't like BNP's views, but nor do I like the 3 "mainstream" parties peddling lies about [italic]benefits[/italic] of EU membership or hearing hypicritical waffle about becoming more green and reducing climate change.
There is too much political correctness & censorship as there is so, although I would never vote for the BNP, to claim they shouldn't have a voice is probably worse than [italic]choosing[/italic] not to listen to them....

The comment from Giles refers to a post, now removed, which from someone who had clearly never bothered to read the BNP policies nor did they believe in democracy, ie only those they agreed with may stand.

I've just had a very inoffensive anti-BNP post removed without explanation. I've no idea what's going on with the people who monitor the Gazette website. Very odd indeed.

Today Boris Johnson has revealed that he intends to be as much an idiot and hypocrite as Red Ken was.
Mr Johnson, elected on Friday, announced the appointment of Ray Lewis, an inspirational black community leader, as a deputy mayor with a key role in tackling youth violence. Mr Lewis, a former prison governor, runs a successful Black only school for troubled black youths, which he predicts will educate Britain’s first black prime minister.
Mr Lewis founded the Eastside Young Leaders’ Academy, which provides disruptive black youngsters with a combination of military-style discipline and a traditional education including poetry and the classics. It says that all pupils gain at least two A-levels and three quarters go to university. Boris has certainly begun where Ken left off
The BNP will grow because apart from the British idiots who still vote for the Lib, Dem, Lab alliance. The BNP are fighting for survival and their country, which the other old gang party’s gave away. So wake up Britannia or tomorrow you may be slaves.

Wow! Did you get bullied a lot at school?
If you think supporting a racist pre-neanderthal party will improve matters then, although I support your ability to have a choice, I think you are bonkers.
Anyone that wants to come into this country to integrate, work hard and make a contribution to society is more than welcome.... but it has to be a two way process.

Mr Butler hit another point there by mentioning that Colchester and Clacton are full of Londoners that have escaped "problems" in the capital.
Perhaps there should be an Anglian Regional Party that thinks Londoners shouldn't be allowed to move to this region. I mean the region is nearly at bursting point and these Londoners are taking our jobs.
The cockneys come in large numbers and are quite happy to claim social security. And once one family of Londoners moves in they take over the street. What with their funny accents,strange clothing (tracksuits mainly) and propensity to cause an increase in local crime. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only East Anglian in my neighbourhood nowadays.
So there you go, how would you like it if you weren't allowed to move to a new area to escape crime or worse? Huh? There's no difference between someone moving from Poland to start a new life, than when a family move to a different part of Britain. Well, apart from the fact that foreign migrants generally tend to keep themselves to themselves and don't like stone-cladding.
So vote for the Anglia Regional Party. Let's keep Anglia Anglian and stop those who don't understand the culture and the history out.
See, it's not quite so nice when the boot is on the other foot and perhaps you'll think about that when you're considering putting an 'X' next to the name of a BNP representative.

I have voted for Labour in the past but I feel that they have left the working down over the past 10 years. The rich have got richer and the poor have got poorer.
Gordon Brown has tried to screw poor working class people with the abolishon of the 10% rate. I also hate tax credits - why should I have to fill in forms to get tax back that should never have been taken from me.
I visited the BNP website www.bnp.org.uk and I was very surpised by their very good manifesto.
I have now decided to vote BNP in future as they offer many of the things that I want in their manifesto:
1) A reduced, simplified and flat rate tax system.
2) Raise tax free allowance to £15,000
3) Withdrawl from the European Union
4) Renationalisation of Gas, Water, Electricity and British Rail
5) Protection for British farming and manufacturing.

Gideon Smythe, Wivenhoe sounds a bit disturbed.
I am not a BNP supporter but to suggest that Londoners are the same as Poles is a bit of stretch and very offensive to Londoners.
Is Gideon Smythe the sad and unwanted result of a cloning experiment that went badly wrong?

Steve, I agree with points 1, 2, 4 and 5.
But unfortunately the BNP is run by people with a racist agenda. It's obvious that they will pad-out their manifesto with a few juicy carrots to dangle under the noses of floating voters. But they should be approached with extreme caution.
The reason I don't agree with point 3 is; have you been to mainland Europe recently? It's cleaner, friendlier, the public transport runs on time, taxation is lower, crime is lower, they get more bank holidays than us, the kids are well educated and respectful of their elders and you can still find a butchers, greengrocers and those old-fashioned things called bakeries in most high streets. All of the European countries in the EU have kept their identity but have forged closer ties.
If it's the pound you're worrying about, I thought the standard currency in Essex was the VISA nowadays.

Cockney Tim. Yes I am, but I don't really want to talk about it. And, you've missed my point. I love Londoners, Poles, French, Africans, human beings in general. The only people I don't like is those that judge others based on colour, race and religion.
Don't forget, 500 years ago most of our families lived in France, Holland, Germany, Norway. In fact most of us are immigrants. So remember that next time you want the borders shut. This isn't OUR country, it's A country.

I apprciate your point of view Gideon however I don't but the whole EU con trick.
I voted for Labour through thick and thin for the best part of 40 years.
I am fearful for the effects that immigration has had on Britain.
I am fearful for the effects of this immigration on the future wellbeing of my children and grand children.
Labour and the other parties claim they listen but they don't and that is why I have decided to vote BNP.
It is still a free country. I wish you all the best for the future issrective of who you vote for.

It appears that a lot of poets visiting this site are left wing nonce cases, on prescribed medication Coke most probably...
No Spartacus I wasn’t bullied I was the the bully. So as you hold no allegiance to his country and are proud of its multi cultural diversity, you will have nowhere to run and hide in the not too distant immigrant uprising. But then you do consider yourself Spartacus and we all know what the Romans did to him Dont we.!!

Funny that all of the londoners who are coming here " to get away from the problems there" are the ones being blammed for the incredible fast-rising crime rate here in clacton! Drugs, knife-crime, chavs boozing in the parks- they are all from nice white families. How come?
I lived in London for over 20 years and the schools my children went to ( very mixed )were far acedemically ahead of the generally not-mixed race schools they now attend in clacton. How come?
Have any of you traced your family tree back beyond the immediate family you know? It's all quite laughable. But very sad.

Jacqui, good point.
I personally think that racism is the preserve of the lazy and insecure. I'm sick of it and can only see things getting worse if our doorsteps are darkened by the BNP.
With reference to Nick's comments, I'm not a poet, I'm a writer and I can't stand Coke, Pepsi or any other fizzy drinks for that matter.
However, your comment about being a bully made me laugh. Very funny. Is that you Mum?

When are we going to get away from extremist parties present Government included. I must admit that I have only seen Boris Johnson on “Have I Got News For You” Not impressed and he is to stay as an M.P.? I remember not so long ago Trevor Phillips was a reporter on London ITV. There should be a party that stands for equality throughout society and for that you have got to get rid of value mainly money. While you have value and a very materialist society you will have greed and envy, which is the ruin of us all.

And my Dad was from an east -end docker family, so poor he had to
pick up veg from chapel street market at the end of the day as a kid to help feed his family- and he was PROUD of the fact the the black shirts were stopped from marching in the east end in 1936! He never forgot that working-class people got together to oppose the evil of racism ...Shame on you!

So the labourites listen, that is what they say at all levels, but the s**ds don't put anything into ACTION! The hypocrites of the left only know how to con the people all of the time, they think that the population at large are dense and won't notice that they are being 'dipped' by this Labour government, we are ALL poorer (except the City Gents and well healed) this year than we were this time last year, don't let them tell you otherwise. Voting BNP ain't going to help all that much. I remember the National Front fielded a candidate in Colchester in 1968 an he got nowhere, Tony Buck trounced the lot of 'em!

Mr Smythe,name one area of this country that's a multicultural success? There aren't any!! Multiculturalism leads to the fragmentation and final collapse of western society! All over europe nations are on the brink of something very serious!! And it's multicultural advocates like you who've caused it!! The BNP is the remedy to the poison your lot have pumped into our nation's bloodstream!! And I'll think you'll find that the British(English) make-up is of predominantly germanic-celtic stock.Two races with largely the same features and geographical backgrounds!!

Mark Thorn, you need help. Do you seriously think that mixing people of different skin colours will cause civilisation as we know it to come to an end? If so, why?
As for your opening assertion, the country as a whole is generally a multicultural success. I'm constantly staggered that it's those least exposed to multiculturalism (people living in places like Colchester), that seem to make the biggest noise about it's apparently damaging effect.
Why on earth should I be afraid of my neighbour whatever he looks like, sounds like or acts like, just so long as he's no threat to me? For gods sake sort yourself out.

I do not understand what people are so afraid of. People have always emigrated to other countries - it's human nature! My god, how many countries have us white folk taken over without pwermission throughout history, not to mention areas of Spain that have been completely taken over by the English, proudly flying their St George flags - but I suppose that's ok! I welcome people from other countries and cultures - I find them far less threatening than any beered up idiot coming out of Yates's on Saturday night or so called 'hoodies' who congregate in their large groups.

Thanks to Ginsters and, of course, my wonderful wife.
It does look as if Mr Thorn believes everything he reads in the Daily Mail.
Given your narrow-minded point of view I'd question whether you've ever been outside Colchester. You are hopelessly wrong by the way.
There is naturally some concern about unlimited migration and I have no problem with anyone offering intelligent and constructive debate about it.
Unfortunately there are far too many people out there who deal only in 'tabloid' soundbites and are not clever enough to formulate their own opinions based on fact.
If you are white and 'English' the probability is that you are actually of Danish, Italian, Dutch, German, Irish, Welsh, French, Scotish or Norwegian blood. So what's the problem with our brothers and sisters who stayed, until now, across the water?
Unless of course that's not the problem and you're just a racist. Then perhaps you could just be honest with us instead of pretending that you have the concerns of Britain at heart.

To Mr Smythe,Mrs Smythe and Friend.
Firstly Mr Smythe,the 'ever been outside of Colchester' comment.Well yes actually,spent the last 16years working in Wood Green.Do you know it? Beautiful place,full of every colour,creed and religion known to man.Drug wars,rapes,murders,s
tabbings,shootings all the time. None of it English.Strange that? I can see the facts Mr Smythe,I don't need the Daily Mail to formulate my opinion. Mrs Smythe ,I'm not an apologist for the past,what's done is done,we,that's me and you can only affect the present and the future.What white people have done in the past is not my concern or responsibility. And you have to ask yourself why so many Brits go to Spain.I don't think the likes of you would ever quite understand the reason! Just put it down to the sun!! Lastly GD(idiot),if you really believe this country is a multicultural success,then I wholeheartedly commend you for your ignorance!!! You and the SMITHS live in bubbles! Bubbles burst!!!!

Wow.I see, it's the fault of the foreigners then.
I wonder how the Spanish feel about us moving over there and taking over their towns.

Yes, you're right Mr Thorn. All foreigners (particularly the dark skinned ones)are responsible for drug wars, rape and murder. It's a living hell here now, in fact I'm thinking of emigrating to Spain with a suitcase full of sleaveless T-shirts and union jack emblazoned bermuda shorts. That's where the [bold]real[/bold] British culture's to be found.
Leaving aside the rather inconvenient fact that violent crime is going down rather than up, I only hope that you're not now (or ever intend to be) a serving policeman.
Finally I'd like to correct your assumption that I'm a friend of Mr and Mrs Gideon - the only things we have in common as far as I'm aware is our place of residence and our capacity for reasoned thought.
Incidentally I've lived in a number of places that have experienced large scale immigration (Birmingham, East London and Sheffield). No it wasn't Nirvana (nowhere is), but that had nothing to do with the ethnic make up of the population. Live and learn Mark.

Sirs,
I am appalled by Mr Thorn's comments and I am wondering if his intentions are to rile you.
It is my experience that Englishmen are kind, intelligent and are not racists. I can not therefore think that Mr Thorn is for real.

Proverbs of our time: "The ramblings of the feeble minded make for mildly humorous distraction".
It was a joke, wasn't it?!

As long as they go back overseas,no problem! Just so I know,point out the racist comments?? Very easy to be critical when something conflicts with your opinions,but the problem is it is the likes of you,GD(idiot) and the Smythes who've caused the massive rise in public support for the BNP.You tend to think anyone against immigraton and alien cultures diluting and destroying our own is a racist.By calling someone a 'racist' you immediately stifle debate.Trouble is feelings simmer and people eventually find an outlet.That outlet has become the BNP.And to you Jerzy,I don't mind the odd personal attack but to attack children will not be tolerated and since I can't reach you I shall report you!!

Crikey, you are for real. Attack races at your leisure, but don't bring the children into it. What wonderful double standards Mr Thorn.

Family values Mark - stop it, you're becoming painfully funny now.
Now where's the racism? Hmm, perhaps the implication that Drug wars, rape and murder (imagined or exagerated) are all the fault of the non-English. Now do you really mean that? Is it the Scottish and Irish that you're blaming. Say what you mean Mark, you're really referring to those who aren't of 'germanic-celtic stock' - whatever the hell that means. You might like to compare yourself with cattle, but leave me out of it.
When are you off to Spain? I'll be there to wave goodbye.

If Mark Thorn says that non-english people are responsible for most of the crime in his area then it is probably true. It may be rude of him to say so but the truth sometimes is a rude thing, but it shouldn't be silenced for fear of offending someone. Things may be different in other places but Mark has the right to comment on his own experiences.

Yes Joshua I'm sure Mark is commenting on 'his experiences'. He's not a reactionary, ignorant bigot in any way at all.

Well done Joshua! If however your looking for reasoned debate,then please don't think you'll find it on here!! Facts mean nothing To this lot,they work completely on assumptions,rose tinted spectacle theories and general nastiness!! DON'T SPEAK THE TRUTH,YOU MIGHT BECOME A REACTIONARY BIGOT TOO!!

Mark, I find everything you've written truly offensive - your grammar really is awful!
But seriously, I'd like to be the first to say we've all had our fun and let everyone know what we think so maybe it's time to put this to bed now.
