A very fair article in today’s Sunday Herald (1 November 2009)

This illustrates the extent to which the British National Party in Scotland is growing and developing into a credible alternative, which stands a chance of having a candidate elected at the 2011 Scottish election, or perhaps more probably in 2015.

The Sunday Herald reporter was at our launch on Tuesday night and he writes:
“True to the BNP’s ’suits not boots’ rebranding, there are no skinheads, no fixed scowls at the press, and almost no tattoos on show. Most people are in their 30s and 40s, with women making up about a fifth of the crowd.”

The report quotes quite a bit from our Glasgow North East candidate, Charlie Baillie’s enjoyable and colourful speech, including his paraphrasing of the Randy Travis song, “Point of Light”.

As the article says: “Mr Baillie detects a ‘darkness’ threatening Britain. ‘It’s a darkness everyone must face. That darkness covers everything in sight. It needs a single point of light. The BNP is that single point of light. We alone stand for the survival of this nation and will secure a future for British children,’ he says.”

Charlie and his team need all the help they can get for the by-election on Thursday 12 November 2009. If you can help Charlie and his team to provide the Point of Light for the electorate in Glasgow North East, then please give him a call on 07827 811008.

Now is the time to come forward – and if you cannot campaign physically, please donate to us financially by sending a cheque payable to “BNP-Scotland” or “British Heritage” and sending to PO Box 11815, Turriff, AB53 8WB.

There is a point, when you cannot walk away.
When you have to stand up straight and tall,
and mean the words you say.
There is a point you must decide,
just to do it ’cause it’s right.
That’s when you become a point of light!

There is a darkness, that everyone must face.
It wants to take what’s good and fair
and lay it all to waste.
And that darkness covers everything in sight.
Until it meets a single point of light!

Point of Light, Randy Travis, 1991
