'News coming out from London, turn out 35% and BNP are just under the 5%
tulip'
best leave my obsession with the residents association and the BNP until later heh?
More pressing issues here methinks
God this is a great day
BNP achieve .0045% of elected councillors
Is that news from the last election? The BBC reports turnout is estimated at 45% - up from 36.95% in 2004.
The BNP have averaged an increase of 5 new councillors per year (taking a random sample of those I can remember: this year and last) which should see them hit 1000 councillors around the year 2198. Even to get to 100 councillors would take them another decade at the rate they're growing.
Not sure about a quiet revolution but it's a hell of a slow one.
'BNP achieve .0045% of elected councillors'
a great victory !
'Is that news from the last election? The BBC reports turnout is estimated at 45% - up from 36.95% in 2004.'
Sounds about right - though this turnout figure keeps changing dramatically.
in response to green gordon, no thats the figure i was given on phone approx 10 mins ago, by a man who knows....
tulip
I know its childish but what the hell
there are only 2 undeclared councils left
carmerthenshire and newport
I don't think the residents association are standing in either but the question is, are the BNP?
Its not quite neck and neck
the residents association have 43 elected councillors the BNP have only 47
God this is feckin tense!!!
Bloody hell. The waiting's killing me.
From the Guardian diary:
Wednesday April 30 2008
And it is not just the prospect of a Johnson mayoralty that has us all excited. It is the concurrent joy there would be if the BNP, which has bequeathed the Tory its second-preference votes, burgled its way on to the London assembly. Second on the party's list is Robert Bailey, a councillor in Barking, east London, who last week rang his local paper, the Barking & Dagenham Recorder, to discuss its election coverage. He made powerful points to the paper's news editor, but on sensing that she had failed to take them on board, unleashed a tirade of four-letter words, pausing only to draw breath and to call her a "Nazi", a "shit" and a "fucking jobsworth". Half an hour later, Bailey and associates parked their car outside the paper's offices from which they shouted slogans via a loud-hailer. It took a community support officer to move them on. Could this say much about the party's attitude to antisocial behaviour? The high-ups obviously thought so, for the next day Bailey was back on the phone, making a grovelling apology. "I'm not a yob ... I'm sorry for some of the things I said," he told the editor. "We all have our moments sometimes." Some more than others.

Final results are in
159 of 159 councils have officially declared
Total number of councillors elected = 8424
Total number of BNP councillors elected = 37
that equates to the BNP managing .0043% of councillors elected
THE RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION BEAT THE BNP BY 6 VOTES
17% MORE SUCCESS THAN THE BNP
Wheres my Jameson !!!
Well done the Residents Association.
Looks like the London results wont be until about 10 pm according to BBC Radio 5
London Elects says:
2.4million voters turn out at the polls
Early indications show turnout in this year's London elections is 45%. This is equivalent to approximately 2.4 million voters.
The accurate figure will not be known until the whole count is complete later this evening.
This is the first time more than 2 million people have turned out to vote in the London elections.
Turnout in 2004 was 37% (1.9 million voters). This means the number of people voting increased by 20% this year compared to 2004.
well done irish tony, just goes to show the residents really do have the power, the choccy biscuits are on their way.

ps tentative news.....City and East London John Biggs is holding but Respect party are in 3rd place, this is not confirmed.
http://www.hendontimes.co.uk/display.var.2242338.0.mayoral_election_live_boris_leading_race_to_take_power.php
your all very quiet
The spin the BNP is using to try and hide this disaster is comical.
they are claiming to have 100 councilors!!!!!!
I wonder will they ever list them and show how many are unelected parish councillors?
now we all know that a lot of BNP people visit this site and I have a question for them.
Do you really believe this spin?
Do you really believe that parish councillors will make a difference?
Will you continue to fund the leaders of this vile party with their lies?
cheers for the biccys tulip

WHY link to that?
It says, at just gone 7, theres a rumour going round that the BNP is close to winning two seats on the constituent assembly.
R U a Troll?
@ Flakey
Probably. Trouble is that Blogger doesn't let you copy and paste hyperlinks posted as text to see exactly where they lead.
A statement by Searchlight
London Assembly results for Bexley and Bromley announced:
http://results.londonelects.org.uk/Results/AssemblyResultConstituency.aspx?id=2
Conservative member elected.
UKIP trounced from 2004 result and big gain to Conservatives...
National Front came 4th...
IrishTony there may well be spin I don't know but at the end of the day none of the people you associate with have stood for election and never likely to and Red Ken is out so it seems.
So why do you persist in denying a voice to people that obviously want to be heard?
Bexley and Bromley results.
No BNP candidate, but the NF came fourth with 5.56%
"IrishTony there may well be spin I don't know but at the end of the day none of the people you associate with have stood for election and never likely to and Red Ken is out so it seems".
And you know who I associate with do you?
Have I touched a nerve?

Could be a flash in the pan. Blackham was from Beckenham which is part of Bromley, they held a march there and they fought the By Election there. BUT..... If the NF polled as high, relatively as that, dos it mean the BNP are on course for a LA seat
I thought I'd let you have a pop at him, Irish Tony.

LOL No worries D, your'e entitled, I'm no good with figures but this certainly looks like the Nutzies have failed (Again)
Can you give us the average?
Maybe later, RAH - I'm very tired after last night.
Somebody is telling me that Griffin has been seen at City Hall.
Boris just crowned Mayor.
Barnbrook 69,710 1st prefs
Nice work Denise and Ketlan. I think we're all jigged after last night. I think there's a long wait for speeches before GLA results start again. Have yourselves a tot of something strong ;-)
Barnbrook was beaten into 5th.
The rest below him did very poorly.
GLA result Croydon and Sutton
For info, no BNP involvement
Barnbrook gave a speech just now
GLA result South West
NF 5th, 2.48%
...and nobody listened.
BNP/Barnbrooke only 2.9% in Mayoral vote - so cant see him/them getting on the GLA. Twice as many people would have to vote for them in the top up as they did in the Mayor.
Unrelated but of note: Appalling votes for Ukip
GLA result Barnet and Camden
For info, no BNP involvement
Trolls are quiet tonight Neezles. Crying in their Tesco lager?
A lot of the Top-up vote percentages are available on the london elects site under 'Download Results'
There have been a few.
Do Tesco do lager?
Here's a link for that
Guardian
London assembly results
Con 8, Lab 6
So this means no GLA for the BNP?
That's not a link for Tesco lager
:-)
Bumbrook gets 2.88 percent of first preference votes
GLA result The Guardian/Comment if Free
"Second, there is at least a smattering of good news about the British National party: having aimed at up to three seats on the London Assembly, they reportedly look set to win only one, while they've lost two councillors in Epping, and made no breakthrough in their target area of Thurrock. On an otherwise bleak day, such little things mean a lot."
Or "is Free", even...
GLA result Enfield and Haringey
For info, no BNP involvement
GLA result YWest Central
For info, no BNP involvement

GLA result Ealing and Hillingdon
NF 5th, 4.49%
GLA result Havering and Redbridge
For info, no BNP involvement, but UKIP 7.27% and Eng Dems 3.86%
Barnbrook on GLA - Maybe not:-
Now on Stormfront posted by Leicester Minority - Poster on Vote 2007 was Leicester. He, or she, hasnt waited for the results. Derr.
Would Leciester Minority be Mark Collett
Always knew he'd be premature
GLA result Greenwich and Lewisham
NF (Tess Culnane) 5.7%
Let's wait and see.
Barnbrook elected on to London Assembly with 5.4%.
Oh dear, now the fun really begins, how much does Griffin want from his wages?
Leicester on Vote 2007 and Leicester Minority on Stormfront are the same. Not sure who it is but it's not Collett.
RAH SAID
"Barnbrook elected"
How the hell did that happen?
under 2.9 in Mayoral to over 5% in top up.
Have they done it?
Was it 'cos some of the racist minority voters attracted to vote for Boris Johnson's London Conservatives first over the "piccaninnies" racial slur voters, were also BNP supporters, but their hatred of Ken Livingstone was greater than their love of the BNP, because the far right are obcessed with hating socialism to the detriment of their white supremacist "racial pride".
Is that confirmed?
They didn't get three or even two and if it's true Bumbrook only just scraped it.
I don't think anybody's worried about Bumbrook being on the GLA.
It's probably true but not confirmed yet.

The wally is out of his depth, it's going to be fun watching him make an 'arse' of himself...
Worried?
If anyone should be worried it should be the BNP.
If it's true, hopefully somebody can dig up more of the dirt on bumbrook to make him a laughing stock.
Just hope parliament never has proportional representation so these scumbags can never become parliamentary members.
If bumbrook is partial to cottaging as rumours said hopefully cameraphones will be on hand to post said videos on youtube, as the homophobia of the bnp would soon cause the party to drop this drunken prick.

Dont worry denise, it's only one seat.

There's no way the fash can call this or the local election results a victory.
They didn't meet targets, went into decline, only just got over 5% to bag a GLA seat.
If I was BNP I'd want my money back.
Thanks for this tonight Denise. You've been a star.

Confirmed now
Nick Griffin must be counting the pennies as I speak. So don't drink too much special brew, Bumbrook. Griffin is your pimp, and he won't pay your bar tab.
A warning!
Much appreciated, Charlie.
Thanks to everybody who came along tonight.
I'll give it until 2 for final comments, then I'm off to bed.

Confirmed now
It may turn out to be a blessing in disguise
Media focus on Barndoor can only be a good thing as far as we're concerned:)
G'night Denise, and thanks very much for keeping us informed:)
Kind regards...Rah
A good two days for antifascists and a great two days for Lancaster Unity I reckon.
Cheers Denise and Ketlan. We owe you one.
I blame all those gutless rebels who pntificated how much they hated Richard Bumbrook only to help deliver leaflets on the streets of london, the spineless losers.
How indeed will Cyclops repay those dear loyal brainless rebels when his court cases resume over the next few weeks, folks?
Just like Adolf Hitler who repaid the generals who plotted against him.
There's no such thing as loyalty in far right circles.
Goodnight Rah xx
If there's a media focus on the gay pornographer Bumbrook, hopefully they will remind people he invited the world's most vile Holocaust deniers to london.

The best way to show gratitude is by pressing the Donate button:P
How much time can Barnbrook devote to the LA seeing as he is also a councillor in Barking.
He is prone to gaffes and is not articulate considering he is a teacher, or was.
UKIP got two elected last time round it didnt catipult them to greater success. Why should it the BNP?
It has saved Nick Griffin's neck that is all, if they hadnt got the seat the rebels would have got more supporters.
I doubt there'll be a leadership challenge now.
For the time being the BNP will be happy bunnies
Thanks for this Lancaster Unity. Roll on the General Election, can't be far offf.
I mentioned the general election to Ketlan when we were snowed under last night.
He said something unprintable... ;-)
When I was a naughty seven year old girl, my mum dad and sister refused to speak to me for the rest of the day. The silent treatment, they called it.
How long would it take for the pervert freakshow to crack if nobody speaks to him for the next four years?
If everybody gives bumbrook the silent treatment, he would probably start fighting and threatening people because that's what he's like when he's drunk.
Fun and games await!
It serves the rebels right for helping a man they loathed, Nick Griffin, by offering their support for Richard.
Just a thought - If Boris Johnson is a changed man since his "piccanninny" days, he must try to win the confidence back of London's non-white population by totally and utterly humiliating bumbrook. Anything less would keep the rumours alive that Boris Johnson is indeed a racist.
Sugar! I dozed off at half 1 and missed the end.
No worries about Barnbrook, would've been surprising if he didn't sneak in even if he only just made it.
Old Nicky boy was there to get his share of the £400,000 was he?
Great couple of nights all round, nothing for us to worry about but in Barnbrook the best target we've got.
All the antifash who got out have a bloody good drink, you deserve it, and to Ketlan and Denise bloody well done with this blog. They hate you so you're doing everything right.
Adrian
Just got in from work I think I speak for many people when I say a big thank you to Denise and Ketlan.
There are lot of people who use this site as their first point of call for anti BNP stuff and I'm one of them.
As Irish Tony has pointed out several times this has not been a very good election for the bnp with them only winning 10 seats (well done to the residents assc') but the media have as always made a big deal of the BNP breakthrough. Front page of my local paper, BBC Radio 5 ect.
The BNP are still a very small party and we have 4 years of Dicky to look forward too. Keep at them, keep laughing at them and keep annoying them. If there is one thing a bnp member doesn't like, that is being laughed at.
Again many thanks to K+D.
John
Well done everyone who campaigned against the BNP on this. A splendid job!
