Defeat the BNP in east London on 3 July

I am writing to you to tell you about two forthcoming council by-elections in which the BNP pose a serious threat of winning. The by-elections in Chadwell Heath (Barking & Dagenham) and South Hornchurch (Havering) will both take place on Thursday 3 July.

It is vitally important that we stop the BNP from winning either. Both these wards are in the new Dagenham & Rainham parliamentary constituency and given the results in the recent London Assembly elections, where the BNP virtually tied in the popular vote with Labour, it is clear that this seat is going to be the BNP’s national priority at the next General Election.

To make sure the fascists are defeated the HOPE not hate campaign is organising a number of activities in the two wards. Our initial campaign dates are:

Sunday 15 June 11am Chadwell Heath station. Click here for map.

Saturday 21 June 11am Chadwell Heath station. Click here for map.

Sunday 22 June 11am Dagenham East station. Click here for map.

Details of activities for the final week of the campaign will be released at a later stage.

I really hope you can spare some time to help in these elections, especially on 21 June, which is our key Day of Action. It is vital that we start to turn the tide on the BNP advance in East London.

I look forward to seeing you on these dates, please do not hesitate to contact me with if you want more information or would like to help out on other dates.

The Church of England is moving towards excommunicating BNP members

Miss Vasantha Gnanadoss (Southwark) to move:
‘That this Synod, noting that in 2004 the Association of Chief Police Officers adopted a policy whereby no member of the Police Service, whether police officer or police staff, may be a member of an organisation whose constitution, aims, objectives or pronouncements contradict the general duty to promote race equality” and “this specifically includes the British National Party”, request the House of Bishops to formulate and implement a comparable policy for the Church of England, to apply to clergy, ordinands, and such employed lay persons as have duties that require them to represent or speak on behalf of the Church.’

To actually prevent the fascists from winning in these seats it would be a fantastic victory for anti-fascism and would herald the push forward in reoving Barnbrook and his cronies from office.

All hands forward!
