Gary Tumulty Salford BNP Wastes £40-80,000 of British taxpayers money on spurious FOI costs

13 Comment (s)
Two days ago we brought you the news about how Gary Tumulty was claiming to be outraged by the amount of money that Asylum Seekers were getting whilst pensioners were seemingly freezing in his borough of Salford. He claimed he was fed up of the amount of money being wasted locally by Salford.

However it appears that Mr Tumulty of Salford BNP is not concerned when it comes to him being the originator of money being wasted and is costing Salford City Council £1000s in spurious Freedom of Information Requests to Salford City Council where he claims to be living and employed by the Council as a Caretaker. Not content with demonising Asylum Seekers in order to stir up racial tension , he has now taken to attacking Local Councillors as well. He is also going to great lengths to cost Salford City Council lots of money :

Tumulty complains about how much money the local council is spending on various initiatives , claiming to be acting in the 'Public Interest' by making various Freedom Of Information requests in the borough.

A Freedom Of Information request can cost anywhere up to £650 in adminstration and clerical enquiries. His first request was made twelve months ago and his most recent being on the 10th November this year.

Gary Tumulty of Salford BNP has made to date a staggering 124 FOI requests! :

The nature of these requests are spurious at best and seem to concentrate on things like trying to find out the ethnicity of HIV+/AIDS sufferers in Salford, the ethnicity of Drug bustees and the ethnicity of those licensed to sell alcohol in the borough (at least three FOI requests on 'Beer' alone) in fact Tumulty seems to be mainly focused on ethnicity , which as a BNP Organiser and Candidate should not surprise anybody

We estimate that Gary Tumulty is costing Salford City Council anywhere between £40,000-£80,000 a year with these spurious Freedom of Information Requests perhaps local residents would like to ask Mr Tumulty why he is intent on wasting so much of the Council's Budgets on asking such FOI requests as 'How many Gamestations have the council bought'

We are sure that local residents of Salford would be very interested in knowing how between £40-80,000 of British Tax Payers Money is being wasted by the British National Party in Salford and where this money could be better spent on Pensioners and the vunerable and needy in the borough as we approach the harsh winter months.

Police worker sacked for being a BNP member

2 Comment (s)
A police worker from Lancashire was sacked after it was discovered the person was a member of the British National Party.

Bosses say the worker, who worked in the force's eastern division which covers the Ribble Valley, Longridge, Clitheroe and other parts of East Lancashire, had their contract terminated after a leaked copy of the party's membership list was published online in 2008. An investigation was launched after the worker, who has not been identified, appeared on the list.

The disclosure was covered in answer to a Freedom of Information request to the force.

Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans said all political parties should be treated the same. He added: "I think the guidelines should affect everyone equally. As much as I might hate everything the BNP stands for, they are a legal party and have representation at local government level and European Parliament level and they do score a lot of votes out there."

It is not clear what post the worker had within the force.

The Freedom of Information request also revealed that no Lancashire officers were affiliated to the far-right party. A spokesman for Lancashire police said: "Membership or promotion of the BNP by any member of the police service, whether police officer or police staff, is prohibited as it conflicts with our duty to promote equality."

Association of Chief Police Officer guidelines adds that the policy "specifically includes the British National Party".
