Last night saw the first Aberdeen City meeting since new Organiser Barry Scott had taken on the role. .
“As this was my first meeting I was naturally apprehensive about meeting members for the first time “, said Barry, “but after the introductions were over, we all simply got down to business discussing Branch Strategy”.
It was agreed that our efforts would be concentrated on contesting Aberdeen South, currently held by Anne Begg of Labour. Members proposed a leafleting campaign in the days following Nick Griffin’s Question Time appearance on the 22nd of November, in the hope of benefiting from the good publicity this should bring.
The highlight of the evening was the very generous offer from one of our members, of payment in full, for the deposit for our candidate in Aberdeen South, who is to be announced in the next upcoming meetings.
A collection was held at the end of the meeting of which Fifty Three pounds was raised. This will be put to good use as payment for a Wreath to commemorate Remembrance Sunday at BNP Scotlands service on the 8th November.
Mr Scott finished his report by saying, “The over whelming support for the British National Party in Aberdeen really is an ‘un-tapped resource’ and I believe as a group we have a very exciting future ahead of us”.
