Sheffield postmen say they are "disgusted" after being asked to deliver leaflets for the British National Party along with normal mail. Some posties at the Barnsley Road sorting office in Firth Park are refusing to deliver the leaflets for the far-right party.
Political parties, along with any other organisation, can pay Royal Mail to deliver flyers on their behalf as long as they meet "advertising and legal" guidelines.
But one member of staff, who did not wanted to be named, said: "We have received a load of BNP leaflets to be delivered to every house on each route. Bearing in mind large areas of S5, like Firth Park, have a large Asian and other ethnic minority population, I find it disgusting that Royal Mail would allow this to happen. I myself will be refusing to deliver the leaflets and, like other members of staff, am disgusted Royal Mail would let this happen. The people in charge should be ashamed."
The BNP said it wasn't up to postmen to decide what to deliver. Spokeswoman Marlene Guest said: "There are a lot of things that go out by mail that people could object to, but it's the postmen's job to deliver things. We are a legitimate political party. Some of these people who are objecting should come to one of our meetings and listen before they object."
Royal Mail declined to say if staff would face any disciplinary action for refusing to deliver the leaflets. But a spokesman said: "If any member of staff with a genuine concern raises it with their manager, they will be happy to discuss it with them."

CWU National Equality Officer Linda Roy says:
"The CWU have in fact taken a very proactive stance on this issue and we have negotiated an agreement with the business which effectively is a conscience clause and this allows our members the opportunity to decline to deliver material of this nature.
Given the Euro elections are coming up we actually communicated this to all our branches [including those in the Sheffield area] as it is especially important in times like these."

I object to Marlene Guest loving Adolf Hitler and saying positive things about the Nazi regime.
I also object to the fact she's an ugly minger with a vicious racist mouth, the evil witch!

How nice to read a statement from sometine who doesn't beat around the PC bush. All true, too.
I have just recieved a BNP leaflet today, the 2nd one in the last week, this one was delivered by the postie, I managed to get him to take it back, I won't print what I said to him :-)
Gwen....
school must be out now your removing my postings . ok lets put it another way with your idle threats , how about a website with all your names and addresses on it so you can have your property and your parents property damamged and terrorised , it wouldnt be too difficult from my time living in morecambe and the contacts i have there through my cage and street fighting days , also my mother in law is on admin at lancaster uni so am sure plenty parents addresses etc could be dug up there too !

'ok lets put it another way with your idle threats'
Which threats are these?
'how about a website with all your names and addresses on it so you can have your property and your parents property damamged and terrorised'
You've already got one - it's called Redwatch.
'it wouldnt be too difficult from my time living in morecambe and the contacts i have there through my cage and street fighting days'
Cage fighting in Morecambe? You're delusional.
'also my mother in law is on admin at lancaster uni so am sure plenty parents addresses etc could be dug up there too'
Very nice for your mother to have a job, though she seems to be abusing her position. What's her name again?
And again this assumption that every anti-fascist is a student.
'i fuckin hate gobby little schoolboys like you that cant fight one to one including your gobby fuckin leader , ask him when i broke his nose in the pub one night ...fuckin gobshites'
Broken nose. Whose nose?
'so come on which one of you sad cases wants to start it'
Get a grip son.
oh dont worry am going to get a grip of you antifacist , i will find out you and your parents identity and lets see how you like the inoccent being terrorised eh , fucking lefties like you are ruining this country and want wiped out . about the cage and street fighting i suggest you do some reasearch little boy or are u always smacked up that nothing around you seems real
"it wouldnt be too difficult from my time living in morecambe and the contacts i have there through my cage and street fighting days ",
Jonno???
Get off that computer now, you,re mother is on her way home, also take your sisters dress off and put it back in her room.
The posties shouldn't be obligated to deliver this crap. It should be a matter of conscience, then we'd have the added bonus of knowing that the ones delivering it were BNP sympathisers.
They love this 'legitimate political party meme' don't they, putting aside the fact they haven't actually got any politics; how many nonces, terrorists and violent offenders have to be in a party before it becomes illegitimate ?
Just so we all know in advance, like.
It looks like the fash were dead on with regards to their ranks inability to scribe anything approaching the English language. In other news, 'cage fighting in morecambe' would be a great name for an album.
get back into your cage man or have a spliff it might chill you out lol
Jonno.... you really should put down the Xbox control and go and get some sleep my little munchkin.
Now then if your Mother in Law (poor woman, she must be really disappointed with her daughters' choice of partner) was to get you names and adresses she would lose her job.... so I think she's more likely to say... "Fuck off Jonno you sad loser, why dont you drag your sorry arse away from that bloody TV and get a job"
Now then, its time you went to bed, your getting delusional. when you have hasd some sleep, come back on here and tell us exactly what your trying to say, rather than living out your computer game fantasy.... If you like I can get you a copy of tellytubbies for the Xbox.
'oh dont worry am going to get a grip of you antifacist'
More threats (yawn...)
'i will find out you and your parents identity'
I think you'd have a bit of a job finding my parent's ID.
'little boy'
You have no idea what you're talking about, do you.
'are u always smacked up'
Are you? You certainly sound like you are.
I still want to know whose nose you are supposed to have broken, cage-fighter.
Jonno, why is it your parents house that is being 'terrorised'?
Did likkle wikkle Jonno not dare to put his own adress on the BNP membership form? So he put mummy and daddys' on instead.
Your parents must love you!
I just saw they've picked John P, Barbara Suzuki and Gwen Stevens up on Stormfront and are making threatening noises.
"Get off that computer now, you,re mother is on her way home, also take your sisters dress off and put it back in her room."
LOL
jonno.... You know your 'cage and street figting days'..... they didnt last long did they!
The morecambe MMA has only been up and running since the 18th April (this year)..... was it a bit too much for you.... you being a bit of a porker and all that!

URGENT - PLEASE NOTE THAT ARTHUR KEMP HAS ILLEGALLY HACKED INTO MY E-MAIL THROUGH NON OTHER THAN LAMBERTUS NIEHOF AND HAS PROCEEDED TO TRY AND RUBBISH ME - SEE WWW.ARTHURKEMP.COM. SHAME THIS IS THE WORST HE CAN SAY ABOUT ME!
ANYWAY PLEASE BE CAREFUL OF MY E-MAIL ADDRESS -- I WILL BE SNDING A SCEURE ONE TO THOSE WHO SHOULD HAVE IT.
CLEARLY HE IS VERY WORRIED ABOUT THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH HURTS.
I have not sent him anything however he set up the "my pony" e-mail address through Bep and they have now seen fit to access my private messages. I will be taking legal action against both of them, for the record I am a real lawyer and not one like Mr Barnes!
Anyway, the allegation that I am mad, is so old. Yes my one aunt did die of dementia and my one uncle was an alcoholic. My father however is quite sane, is 70 this year is still employed and for those of you familiar with it still competes in the Argus bicycle race every year.
Yes I did have blackouts, I have extremely low blood pressure and low blood sugar (as does my daughter Joanne) which did cause the blackouts.
The rest is all rubbish and all I can say is if that is the worst Arthur can say about me , well............
Anyway I have sorted out the e-mail probelm (yes I am fairly technologically challeneged but Stephan my son is not) and nothing that I do not want Arthur to have access to will be going through karen@mypony.co.za.
I am sorry to have caused the inconvenience to all in so far as he has your e-mail addresses.
Karen (ex wife)
makes you wonder who truly leaked the BNP membership list if Kemp can hack into people's emails.
Kemp ought to go to jail and then be deported.
Didn't the "British Nazi Party" once threaten the death penalty to all immigrants who commit crimes whilst in Britain, the hypocritical scumbags!
I think "Jonno" or whoever he wishes to call himself is the same unhinged neo-nazi troll who made death threats against Ketlan yesterday.
I am really glad that the blog owners have left this fruitloop's bonkers contributions online to show how mad most BNP people are.
Someone suggested this fantasist should be safely locked up in an old-fashioned mental institution, drugged up with tricyclics and left to the mercy of a male nurse with a glint in his eye, wearing suitably lubricated rubber gloves.
I don't like the thought of bringing back such brutal backward psychiatric instutions, when you hear the absolute horror stories that went on there, but the troll would become the next Copeland and set off on a murderous white supremacist killing spree, I would glady be that sadistic mental nurse with the glint in his eye, to keep the lunatic in check.
Pass me the rubber gloves and lube and I will glady volunteer my services to search Mr Troll's smelly spotty rectum for signs of demonic posession!
I'd have to be careful not to make eye contact, as like most girlfriendless BNP internet loners, he's more than certainly homosexual in denial.
Can I go first with the rubber gloves and the ointment, when this dangerous lunatic who loves making death threats about bullets with names on, is finally traced through his email address by Blogger (Google!).
Bend down and spead wide, Mister Fruitcake!
Well a BNP Gobshite is making threats.
His source code is on record.
You have him/it on toast if you need to refer this to Inspector Knacker
Old Sailor
Racism is indeed a mental illness.
It's high time someone reminded everybody that the BNP has become an Odinist religious cult. Odin will apparently return to life, visit Britain and murder all non-white people
NOT
Yes indeedy, Nick "The Cyclops" Griffin's BNP has become a fully-fledged Odinist sect that has little if anything to do with British Nationalism.
It's not the first time Odinist sects such as the BNP have been set up in Europe.
At the turn of the decade, the security service in Norway smashed Tore Wilhelm Tvedt’s nazi psycho sect, called "Vigrid".
Just like the Odinist training of the Young BNP through indoctrination tenets like the BNP's pseudo-pagan "Strider" magazine, Vigrid used Tvedt’s bizarre initiation ceremonies to make them believe Odin would guide them through a lifetime of hate.
What needs to be long-term to all the young people away from their parents, brainwashed and thus mentally abused by the BNP, need to be monitered and deprogrammed from the BNP Cult's dangerous cycle of Odin worship and white supremacist beliefs.
Police in Norway acted fast to prevent the cult from gaining control permanently of these young people's lives and the same thing needs to be done over here in Britain by the police, the government and the security forces to shatter the BNP's Odinist Inner Circle.
We are not talking freedom of religion. Lunatic religious cults operate outside the boundaries of ordinary day life, and cannot be treated with anything but alarm by all concerned citizens, including proper authentic paganists, for the British Far Right have hijacked bona fide traditional Norse beliefs for the purposes of mind-control of the younger generation now organised religion is in terminal decline amonst young white males.
In his sect similar to the BNP, cult-leader Tvedt claimed he was appointed as the prophet of the ancient Norse god Odin during an incident in which Odin “revealed himself” to him in 1997. Tvedt, who spent the last couple of years before embarking on his prophetic career in France and Belgium, had already had contact with Norwegian nazis a long time before Odin turned up.
His first attempt to form his own nazi group was the Oslo-based Bootboys thug squad. But the young boneheads he managed to recruit objected to his ban on alcohol and soon split with him. This left Tvedt free to run his other pet outfit, the so-called Association for True History, set up to smear Norwegian war veterans and Jews and to spread all the usual rubbish denying the Holocaust.
His religious cult venture, Vigrid was created in 1998 and took hold by 2001. In publishing one of Europe’s weirdest nazi rags, Tvedt quickly demonstrated the distance of his organisation even from the nazi mainstream. His magazine contained pictures of scantily dressed “valkyries” in steel underwear and interminable articles about alleged Jewish plots to destroy the white race.
When Tvedt found a hexagram in the logo of Norway’s biggest brewery, he took it as the ultimate evidence of a Jewish master plan to destroy white people by poisoning them with alcohol. Similar findings in the watermarks of Norwegian banknotes and passports only made him even more ecstatic in his ravings about the “world Jewish conspiracy”.
Anxious to spread his racist poison to young and impressionable minds, Tvedt cottoned on to the fact that the young people he so desperately wanted to recruit would hardly be impressed by an elderly man who could only moan on about Jewish plans to conquer the world. He therefore started to conduct strange ceremonies in which he baptised and confirmed people in the name of Odin. Swinging a huge wooden hammer of Thor, Tvedt pronounces his blessings and presents his young followers with knives after the ceremony.
Knives and other weaponry seem to fascinate Tvedt. He has appeared on television to demonstrate how he practises axe fighting every time he goes for a walk, and on his website urges young Norwegians always to carry a knife when they leave home, which is eerily similar to Nick Griffin's use of politics to insist that all young people have compulsary military service and everybody is allowed to carry automatic weapons.
In another similarity to the BNP's youth training camps, Vigrid arranged paintball training exercises that resembled serious paramilitary exercises, preparing his members for "holy racial warfare".
According to Tvedt, who wanted to expel Jews from Norway, he stated in an interview on television that he would not be sorry if members of his group caused damage to people he does not want in the country.
When a 14-year-old girl had a schoolyard quarrel with his daughter, cowardly Tvedt chased her, punched her hard in the face and threatened to send his nazi playmates after her.
During a raid on his home, police found a sawn-off shotgun. Tvedt’s family since refused to have any contact with the self-proclaimed prophet including his daughter. According to her, Tvedt raved about entering a mosque loaded with dynamite and blowing himself and the building sky high.
Odin worship seems to link up easily with organised paedophilia. Like the BNP's youth drive, many Vigrid members were very young, some only 14 years old. With shades of the alleged antics of Mark Collett and Dave Hannam in that Blackpool hotel. The 60-year-old Tvedt drooled over the young girls in his group, describing them as sexy and praising their physical attributes, and his second-in-command, Torgrim Bredesen had, according to some of the younger members, taken a much more aggressive approach than Tvedt (just like Mark Collett).
Society should not stand back while the BNP uses similar neo-nazi Odinist beliefs to entrap young people into a dangerous cult of mind control.
How come the police have never investigated the BNP's Odinist brainwashing of young people, when young Muslims seen to be at risk of religious extremism are closely monitered by the powers that be?
It really does make you wander!!!
"also my mother in law is on admin at lancaster uni"
LOL
"so come on which one of you sad cases wants to start it"
"YOU LOOKING AT MY PINT???"
BNP idiots.
Every time the BNP's Odinism is mentioned on Lancaster Unity, Lee Barnes shits himself.
What's he got to hide?
Just what is Lee Barnes attempting to do to the minds of impressionable young people through his cult of Odinism???
"makes you wonder who truly leaked the BNP membership list if Kemp can hack into people's emails."
More likely his mates at thames house.
As a postie I have refused to deliver Labour Party leaflets because of my contempt for their corruption.
I have been threatened with the sack.
That Lee Barnes just can't stop himself bitching about the "JOOS"! He's a great advertisement as to why people should not join or vote BNP.
Go to any BNP forum and eventually one of the councillors on there or a hardcore known member will start with the Jewish conspiracy theories.
Their hate is pure evil.
