Shocking!!
Nick Griffin, British National Party leader, gives the victory sign as he leaves the grounds of Burnley Football club, following a recount of votes for local elections Friday May 3, 2002. The recount resulted in the BNP, Britain's main right-wing extremist party, gaining three council seats in Burnley, one of four cities in northwestern England that suffered racial riots last year.

Is there any wonder why journalists rank below ambulance-chasing lawyers and used car salesmen in the public esteem?

Liberals must hate that.
It always astounds me the way liberals get so wrapped up in promoting their fantasy of the wonderfulness of "diversity" that they manage to blind themselves even to their own best interests and loudly defend people who would kill them first if they ever took over. Sort of like Casey "I live in a penthouse" Kasem's support for Nicaraguan commie, Daniel Ortega. Casey would have been first in line for the firing squad (#1 With A Bullet!) if his pal ever took over America. Say, maybe that's a good reason to elect him...
Our hard working Chairman declared Victory this morning as votes were still being counted in Burnley.Nick Griffin spent a solid five hours on Friday morning conducting interviews with the World's media who had descended on the small Lancashire town of Burnley. CNN, BBC, ITN, French, Italian and American crews were all eager to capture the atmosphere in the town as Nick Griffin conducted a drive around in the BNP battlewagon.
The mood amonst BNP voters in the town was described by observers as one of "elation".
The Chairman conducted further interviews on the village green in Worsthorne, a setting that is "typically English" and sums up an image totally at odds with the media portrayal that the BNP can only win in rundown inner city areas.
The party may not have taken as many wards as some had expected and indeed we all hoped for, but taking 3 wards in Burnley is a victory for the British people. It is a victory for common sense. It is a poke in the eye for the biased elements of the media who used their wealth and position to tell blatant lies about the BNP. We applaud those journalists that used their pens to write as fairly as they could about us and thank them for their coverage. We utterly condemn the wealthy plutocrats like Rupert Murdoch, Richard Desmond and Michael Green and their political pawns in the Labour Party who abused their positions to influence the outcome of these elections.
Back to the BNP's successes last night. In addition to the outright wins the party has seen seen the average vote almost double overall.
Highlights
- David Edwards takes Cliviger in Burnley
- Carol Hughes takes Rosegrove in Burnley
- Terry Grogan takes Gannow in Burnley
- Second place in Dudley (Castle & Priory) (26%)
- Second place in Oldham Chadderton South (29.89%)
- Second place in Wigan 22.9% which has never been contested before!
- Second place in Bexley Northend, our 3 candidates averaged 21.3%
- Third place in Sandwell Princes End,(24.6%) pipped by just 7 votes by the Tories.
We have only just begun the enormous task of restoring power to the British people. We have been heard and our voice will not be silenced. The British people demand better from our elected politicans.
Our campaign to win a future for British children is only just beginning!
My, the Brits do like a lot of government, 45 council seats for a town of 90,000.
It not a fluke either, the 174 towns mentioned average over 34 council seats per town.
My city has a population of about 55,000, we have 6 city council seats.
Because the liberal media are so confused by all of this that they're losing their minds?
Even below politicians and telemarketers.
There is nothing more Communist than having the people involved in the government.
Clamp down on the masses. Long live the state.
