A BNP election candidate advocated the murder of illegal immigrants in the wake of the recent Cumbrian massacre. Right-wing activist Charlotte Lewis, from Thornton Heath, wrote on her Facebook page that mass-murderer Derrick Bird should have come to London and slaughtered illegal immigrants rather than his "fellow British people".
Her tirade is the latest in a string of hate-filled rants and calls for violence against "pakis" through her Facebook page. The latest post reads: "Ok, so I may well get in to trouble for saying this - but I've got to get it off my chest. I wish that Derrick Bird could have come down to London & shot dead some illegal immigrants, rather than killing his fellow British people. If that offends you then tough; it's my opinion and I'm entitled to it."
Her comments refer to taxi driver Derrick Bird, who went on a killing spree in west Cumbria on June 2, shooting dead 12 people and injuring 11 others.
Her latest Facebook rant was highlighted by website Hope Not Hate, Searchlight's campaign to counter racism and fascism in elections and beyond. Gerry Gable from Searchlight said: "I think anybody advocating the murder of illegal immigrants should be prosecuted. People may view Charlotte Lewis as being a bit potty, but the overwhelming interest in firearms of the BNP tells a much more serious story."
When contacted by the Croydon Guardian Miss Lewis, 37, questioned why her "innocuous" comments were being treated so seriously. In a bizarre rant she flip-flopped repeatedly over whether illegal immigrants should be murdered or not, before asking why her love of Chandi the dancing dog in Britain's Got Talent was not being treated as a story.
She said: "It would be preferable to kill illegal immigrants than fellow British people, because they shouldn’t be in this country."
Miss Lewis' true face was revealed in April after pictures were discovered of her swigging from a bottle of alcopops while clad in a burqa during a Halloween party. The Carshalton and Wallington parliamentary candidate, who also ran for Croydon Council’s Shirley ward in the May elections, was snapped revealing her contempt for Muslims by hitching up her costume to reveal her underwear.

She ought to be arrested for inciting violence against minorities.
I wish Charlotte Lewis would get a job and stop sponging of hard working ethnic families.
It is indeed her opinion, to which she is entitled. And my opinion is that it proves her to be a seeping drool of pus from the necrotic haemmorhoids of British fascism's prolapsed arsehole. And she's probably a bit thick as well.
Nothing wrong with having contempt for muslims. Their beliefs are ridiculous. Exactly as stupid as the beliefs of Christians. And all other religionists. But murdering them? No.
But can anyone who loves Chandi the dog be ALL evil?.....
The answer is clearly YES, you only have to see her Fb page to notice she also loves New Kids on the Block AND Desperately Seeking Susan!
As with most of these BNP types, clearly not all there upstairs
Actually I would deport her to Saudi Arabia. save the cost of a trial !!!
Old Sailor
It's disgusting that she believes that, just because she's entitled to an opinion on things, she can abuse and hide behind that entitlement whilst expressing such hateful comments. Disgusting.
I suppose I really shouldnt get the boot into her as she really has got some serious mental health problems.... but.... she is BNP so.......
1. Chandi - not a very 'British' name is it you fruit loop?
2. Its not even a 'British' Bulldog is it, Charlotte, you evil creep.
3. A dancing dog........ whatever happened to your animal rights principles? Thats forcing an animal to perform for humans.... Thats cruel is'nt it? You flipflopping failed animal rights freak...........
Anyway, If you are reading, please go and get some proper medical help.
I... Wha... Good GRIEF! How many bigots ARE there in our society?? It shocks me that there are people in politics who have no idea about immigrants, why they're here, who they are, or any such background. Love the idea of sending her to Saudi Arabia. Perhaps then she will get a real lesson in life? Pillock!
Get a job you deranged twat
This woman went from Animal Rights Fanatic to racist extremist. I remember her when she used to call Radio London and rant on before being cut-off. She seems mentally unstable even by the standards of the BNP and is somebody who needs an outlet for her hatred to compensate for her own obvious inadequacies. There are also mutterings on the far-right that she's a provocateur who's job it is to make outrageous statements, however, I don't buy that.
I suppose we should be relieved that while the BNP are standing specimens such as her in elections they've no hope of the big time.
It will be interesting to see if Ms. Lewis lands up in Court over this. Others have for writing less.
She does seem to lead a bit of a charmed life in in that she's able to make extremely racist statements and even to incite murder and not get her collar felt.
Hmmmm
"instead of fellow British people" she says. Right. As a non-British person, please point me in the direction of the next mad gunman. I missed this one. So sorry - you giant fascist wankstain.
I work in Whitehaven, next to Duke Street where the taxi driver was killed, so I am obviously aware of the impact of the hurt and devastation felt by us locals. We would have preferred for this not to have happened here. But we wouldn't have wanted it to happen anywhere else, either, whether to british citizens or illegal immigrants. One plus point: I don't think there is any chance, however many times she stands, of this woman getting to sit in parliament.
I wish he'd shot you, Charlotte, and the rest of the members/supporters of your ridiculous organisation.
Trollolololololololololololol
She's allowed her opinion, even if it's extremely misguided and wrong. Theres disagreement with certain societal topics and then theres this.
The trouble is that whist all reasonable people find her hugely offensive, there are some dangerous individuals out there who will follow her.
Shes grim, her parents must be so proud
The dirty slag should go back to her own planet, Mars, instead of polluting Earth with her verbal diarrhoea.
Let her have the 'freedom of speech', though it is inciting hate and violence, the more she and the other Nazi's open their mouths, the more they show their true colours and the more eyes will be opened.
@ Tim Footman
Couldn't have put it better myself, good work.
If a muslim had said the same about a british person they would be labelled a terrorist. Freedom of speech doesn't exist and neither does equality. Talk about stooping low.
