BNP Councillor Paul Golding to speak in Aberdeen

January 27, 2010

pg

ABERDEEN BNP
ARE HONOURED TO HAVE THE PLEASURE OF THE COMPANY OF:

Cllr Paul Golding

Back in February 2009 the BNP gained its first Councillor in South East England when Paul Golding was elected in Swanley, Kent with an overwhelming 41 percent of the vote.

Paul has been a patriot all his life and is immensely proud of his British ancestry and heritage.

Paul first joined the British National Party in 1999 aged 17, and has been very interested in history, politics and the Cause of British Nationalism all his life.

Paul is the BNP’s Projects Coordinator, and is responsible for publicity, campaigns and raising money to fund the Party. He regularly travels the country speaking at meetings and organising BNP campaigns.

Paul has a 2 year old beautiful daughter.

Paul’s great-grandfather fought to defend Britain in the Second World War and was captured at Dunkirk in 1940, something which spurs Paul on to help defend Britain against immigration, colonisation and the treason of the old parties and the lying left-wing media.

ON TUESDAY 16TH FEBRUARY
IN ABERDEEN CITY CENTRE.

Dear All,

Paul is a fantastic and inspiring public speaker and this is your opportunity to see and hear him in action.
This event will officially launch our General Election Campaign in Aberdeen and Scotland so, YOU NEED TO BE THERE!

Refreshments and a buffet will be provided. This event is free.

You must confirm your attendance as soon as possible, please bring a friend/s.

Your name will checked off the list at the rendezvous point and you will be escorted to the venue. Late-comers will be denied access to the event.

Confirm you attendance NOW.

Regards,

Barry Scott,
Aberdeen Organiser.

garthdee

Saturday the 23rd January saw a six-strong team of Aberdeen activists take to the streets of the Garthdee, Mannofield and Seafield areas of Aberdeen despite the terrible weather.

“Even though the rain never stopped the whole day we still had a very productive campaigning session, with the distribution of hundreds of party leaflets and newspapers to supportive residents” Organiser, Barry Scott said.
Candidate, Susan Ross was also on hand to meet and greet members of the public many of whom voiced their concerns about the Government’s recently proposed cuts to OAP’s pensions.
Manno
In the predominantly middle class area of Mannofield, local residents appeared visibly amazed at the BNP’s presence in their area and many stopped to accept leaflets and chat with Candidate, Susan Ross.
“The residents of Mannofield acknowledge the fact our Country needs massive change in the way it is Governed and the majority of them were receptive to the idea of the BNP as a credible alternative” Susan said.

As well as the successful ’street presence’ campaigning, hundreds more leaflets were also delivered through local letterboxes by enthusiastic volunteers.

Richard Payne to stand in Banff Buchan

January 23, 2010

P9080119
BNP Scotland are happy to announce prospective candidate for Banff Buchan Richard Payne.

Mr. Payne told news team, ” I am a Nationalist , a family man ,a fabricator/welder , a biker , an archer , a golfer , and a proud member of the Scottish BNP.I have an extremely deep mistrust and skepticism of the motives and honesty of all the mainstream politicians regardless of which of the virtually identical parties they come from , also of the popular medias version of truth and reality . Both appear to float one part truth to nine parts lies and expect everyone to swallow the lot I was raised as a Presbyterian in a Presbyterian home in two Christian countries ( The UK and Canada ) and am deeply adverse to Islam spreading into the west and changing the very fabric of our society . I am saddened and also shocked at how quickly we are losing the battle against crime , ignorance , and immorality in the UK and the west in general . I am disgusted at how brainwashed our kids are , and how poorly educated in the most basic of literacy skills like writing and numeracy ,yet knowing all their “rights” and all the while dismissing the basic rights of others”.

Richard will be standing to give the voters in the North east a real choice for the first time. Real change or more of the same its up to you!

BNP Scotland meets BNP London

January 21, 2010

bnp pics 011
The report of the recent Barking day of action on the main BNP site mentioned that activists had travelled down from Glasgow to help out over the weekend, it failed to name our super-actvists who are a credit and inspiration to BNP Scotland, well I am proud to put that right.

Well done Walter ‘Hammy’ Hamilton and Denise O’Neill from Glasgow.
Joe T Finnie from Renfrewshire and Kenny MacDonald from Edinburgh.

Stars each and every one!

Denise told newsteam, “After a photoshoot, everyone was allocated their designated areas. Heavy rain and wind did not deter our hardened activists and several hours work saw us distribute hundreds of copies of “The Voice of Barking & Dagenham” Sunday brightened up a great deal and we were joined by Nick Griffin with a couple of leafleters. Another few hundred were distributed and after 4 hours, we all retreated to a local hostelry where Mr Griffin and his team were well received. After an hour or so Mr Griffin left with Simon Darby to head for Brussels, but thanked us all for making the effort to start him off with his campaign. All involved with the week-end activities had a good time. Thank you everyone,”

Action in Lothian’s continues

January 20, 2010

IMAG2036
West Lothian BNP members were out again today leafleting for Thursdays meeting, local organiser Mike Coyle reported, “Due to the high level of interest that has been shown, I have opened the meeting to the public. To that end, we put out a large number of personally made leaflets and invitations around the town of Whitburn. As always, everyone we spoke to had nothing but praise”.

The meeting will take place on Thursday 21st January 7.30pm at a West Lothian venue. It will be informal, with free refreshments available. “We will be discussing past acheivments in West Lothian, where we stand today, a talk on the coming election, a question and answer session and we will also hold a minute silence for the children of Haiti.” adds Mike.

If you are free this Thursday Contact West Lothian’s Organiser Mike Coyle for venue details. 07815597675.

“On a more personal note while out leafleting one lady, who always votes BNP, that I spoke to almost brought me to tears. She approached me with the most awful story of how her partner left her days ago taking everything, leaving not a penny to her name and 2 young children to care for. West Lothian BNP gave her a donation to cover her Gas, Electricity and basic provisions. We then put her in touch with the appropriate agencies. WEST LOTHIAN BNP WILL NEVER ALLOW CHILDREN TO GO COLD AND HUNGRY”

BNP Scotland can also announce that West Lothian BNP has established working and supportive communications with the local Police. This has been done with mutual respect, where all branch activities will be registered in advance to provide a safe and secure working environment for all activists and volunteers.

If you can help build the party in Lothian please contact 07815597675 and join the team that cares.

The SNP, criminals party of choice!

January 19, 2010

as

So now we know the sort of people that make up Alex Salmond’s new Scots.

Salmond has lobbied the Home Office to allow an illegal immigrant criminal tax dodger to stay in Scotland. Just the sort of immigrant we need so badly to keep our country going according to Salmond.

Zheng Bin should have left the UK ten years ago, last week he was arrested by police on an outstanding warrant in connection with the supply of drugs.
This particular enricher of British society had been working secretly in the kitchen of the Shining Pearl restaurant in Peterhead, just across the road from Homer Salmond’s office doh!

I wonder how much tax he has paid in to the system. Oh that’s right he was working in secret so that will be none then, still we all know how fond Homer is of his take a ways!

If anyone was in doubt of the SNP’s soft approach to crime then here is cast iron proof, the First Minister lobbying on behalf of an illegal immigrant wanted on drugs charges, what a major embarrassment for the man who would be king.

Scottish leader to stand against Jim Murhpy MP

January 17, 2010

 

IMG_1021

British National Party Scottish leader Gary Raikes has been selected as the prospective candidate for the East Renfrewshire seat, currently held by the Revolutionary Communist Party “ex-member” Jim Murphy.

Mr Raikes has stood in both local council and Scottish parliamentary elections and was lead candidate in the 2009 Euros. He has been our Scottish leader since 2007.

“I am pleased to be standing against the Labour Scottish Secretary who has appointed himself as the anti-BNP spokesman here in Scotland,” Mr Raikes said.

“I very much look forward to sharing a platform with Mr Murphy during the campaign and enlightening him to the truth about today’s BNP as well as getting answers to questions about his dalliance with the Revolutionary Communist party (RCP) during his student days.

“If a politician is discovered to have been a supporter of any so-called far right party during their youth then they are forever attacked by the likes of Murphy,” Mr Raikes continued.

“Yet those like Mr Murphy who dallied with the vile politics of the extreme left during their formative years are allowed to pretend this is of no concern.

“I will remind the voters that Mr Murphy allied himself with the murderous creed which killed more people than fascism and enslaved and killed many millions after the war had ended.

Mr Raikes also pointed out that it was “no surprise” that this “ex-Communist” did not bother to turn up for nearly a third of all the votes taken at the House of Commons during the last term.

“Mr Murphy voted for the Iraq war and then voted against appointing an investigation into that war. Of course, Mr Murphy might not relish the thought of a BNP candidate pointing these facts out in public and he may choose to hide behind the ‘no platform policy’ of Scottish Labour. I somehow don’t think that will help him,” Mr Raikes said.

West Lothian BNP in action

January 16, 2010

Sale and leaseback madness exposes MOD’s desperation for funds

January 14, 2010

4168043331_JPGNICK Griffin has received a sizeable mailbag concerning the Government’s plan to sell-off a Ministry of Defence building in Glasgow and then pay almost 40% more than the asking price to lease it back over 20 years.

Gordon Brown & Co wanted to sell Kentigern House (left) in the Anderston area of the city for £50million to the Canada Life insurance group to try to raise some quick cash to fund its ill-conceived adventure in Afghanistan.

The sale, however would have cost the taxpayer tens of millions of pounds more in the long run as the Government wanted to rent the building back for the next 20 years.

Canada Life would have received £70.2m in rent from the MoD over 20 years with interest adding another £1m-£2m over the period.

The sale-and-leaseback madness had led to employment concerns amongst the 1700 workers based in Argyle Street building where staff store military data and NATO records.

Thankfully, the sale has now been scrapped so Tina Wingfield, the MEP’s constituency office manager, was able to respond positively to worried constituents.

She wrote:

“While common sense has prevailed on this occasion and the sale plans have been abandoned, the fact remains that the MoD is being starved of the resources it needs to operate effectively. The proposal to sell Kentigern House was a desperate, short-sighted act by the MoD to secure essential funding to be spent on other commitments.
 
“This Labour Government has systematically scaled down the financial support given to the MoD, at the same time as continually extending the military’s commitments to unwinnable and wholly unjustifiable overseas conflicts.
 
“As Treasurer in 2004, Gordon Brown refused, for example, to release the funding required to buy new helicopters, which could now be used in service in Afghanistan. Instead, the lack of air support experienced by military personnel is now exposing them to Taliban attack, as they are forced to take dangerous journeys by road.
 
“MoD figures released this morning illustrate well the terrible consequences of the Treasury’s short-sighted penny-pinching. More than 1,000 servicemen and women have suffered combat injuries in Afghanistan and Iraq since 2001, and 20% of army infantry personnel are now classified as unfit for frontline combat duties.

“Mr Griffin fully supports our brave armed services and has consistently campaigned for better equipment to be issued to them when they are deployed in combat zones.

“He is however, opposed to the Government’s callous use of British troops in foreign conflicts that do not involve the national interest and is calling for the return of our troops from Afghanistan.”

Message from new FEBA patron Diane Leech

January 12, 2010

feba

Dear Supporters,                                                                                     

It is now with a great honour, and huge respect and love and also a deep sadness, that I can announce to all those who care to listen, that I have now been named as patron of  F E B A (which stands for – Forward Edge of the Battle Area)  FEBA is a charity in Scotland for veterans many live on the streets and it was created by a incredible man named Tommy Moffat, this man along with his lovely wife have given everything to help these veterans, they have begged the government to help and even met Gordon Brown and many other politicians who happily smiled when the cameras were clicking and then have done nothing including Alex Salmond, also the RBL HAVE OFFERED NOTHING APART FROM A PRAM, SO NOTHING HAS CHANGED THERE THEN!
My self and Steve have been up to Scotland and taken much needed food and clothing but we need more. We require tins of food including beans and tinned tomatoes as this charity tries to give veterans a free breakfast so a least they get one meal a day and a break from the streets. We also need food biscuits drinks and cakes to take out to the homeless, also items of clothing in excellent condition, blankets towels and also furniture. We also need gifts of donations to help keep this  place going as this is the only secure place these veterans have.
Tommy who created this place has given everything he has to keep it going and almost his life too as he had a heart attack and had to have a heart by pass, and is now depressed and run down with the strain of trying to help all these veterans which up to date is 600 and growing. I Am begging you all to please help in any way you can, we are now looking somehow to try to raise the money to get us up there will a large van full of items and money, I have over the years put everything we have into financing the work we have done with honour, but  we cannot find the money to do this much longer and pay our way in the world as well.  To all those who know the work I do, you will know I am telling you as it is and you all know me by now to know I am dedicated to my beloved service personnel and everything I receive by way of gifts, has so many areas to cover i.e. Selly Oak Hospital ,parcels to Afghanistan that are sent out constantly, and of late, money and items to FEBA. I do this alone with my husband and rely greatly on the people who know and support what I do, along with going to various groups and giving talks to raise more money. For all of this to continue. please if you can help in any way or do you have that large van and the petrol to fill it, please help me to help them. Through December,  I sent out to Afghanistan approx 200 parcels. All these parcels were wrapped in Christmas paper and when each soldier opened their parcel up just inside their box under the lid I had taped onto the lid either a Christmas star or a angel or something relating to Christmas such as a bauble and  a hand written Christmas card and other items. I spent everyday in November/December preparing these parcels, it was exhausting but just to know the comfort and joy these would bring is everything one could wish for. I have done this every year for the past 3 or four years, constantly throughout the year. Please help in any way you can and never underestimate how grateful I am for all your help, I would be grateful if this letter could be passed on to everyone. I am selling tshirts too with ”Support Our Troops” on them, all sizes available £12.50 each inclu P&P.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SOLDIERS. Please feel free to call me on 07719898322 or email me at

Many thanks for reading this and fro your support.

Kind regards from the SOLDIERS FRIEND.

DSC00740
BNP Scotland are sad to announce the loss of a great friend and fellow member of the BNP Brian Reilly.

a lively debate ensued. The new Glasgow Organiser, Hammy, headed the meeting, along with Charlie Baillie in his official capacity as Spokesman, as
well as some Organisers (Joe Finnie, Renfrewshire) and Billy Phillips (North Lanarkshire). Along with regular members, there were several new people

Inspiration at its best

January 6, 2010

imagesCAVJ1B0VI hope the following will give all BNP members and officials inspiration for coming campaigns. I recently read the life story of Abraham Lincoln it shows the failures he went through yet he never lost hope. For 32 years he fought with his destiny before achieving his pinacle – his presidency. Read on

1832 Lost job. Defeated for state legislature

1833 Failed in business.

1835 Wife died

1836 Had nervous breakdown

1838 Defeated for speaker

1843 Defeated for nomination of congress

1848 Lost renomination

1849 Rejected for land officer

1854 Defeated US Senate

1856 Defeated for nomination for vice president

1858 Again defeated for US Senate

AND HERE GOES THE LAST AND PERHAPS THE BEST ONE :

1860 Elected as President.

I was amazed by the number of failures and number of years he fought before achieving what he wanted. We usually lose our hopes, say that I cant take it anymore, it’s enough for me etc etc long before 32 years!
Like Lincoln we have to keep on and we will get our just rewards, of that I am certain, 2010 could well be the best year yet for the BNP!

The new year begins!

January 4, 2010

pgThe first Scottish office meeting of 2010 for all organisers and officials is being held this Saturday where BNP Councilor Paul Golding will provide a special General Election local fundraising presentation. This year is an important stepping stone to BNP Scotland winning a regional list seat at Holyrood in 2011. Januarys issue of our newsletter ‘The Bugle’ will include an A4 appeal for funds and another A4 separate appeal for candidates, the mailing to 232 enquirers will also include a membership form – or instructions as to how to become a member. A total of 740 copies will be sent out, another significant rise in the numbers receiving our quarterly publication.

Candidates for the general election have started to be appointed and we hope to have up to 23 in place by polling day. To make this a reality we need to raise funds and we need committed members to step forward and put their names in the hat. We must give the people of Scotland the chance to vote BNP in every region we can, especially the Central region where we came so close to beating the Conservative candidate to win third place in the recent Glasgow by-election sending shock waves through the establishment. Our percentage of the votes in the last few years has steadily grown and we are now on course to gain the 5-6% needed to win a regional list seat in 2011, standing candidates in every Central seat this year will confirm our support.

If you would like to be considered for a candidate please contact Scotland@bnp.org.uk Your party and your country needs you!
