NNP? BPP? EFP? More letters than members...

A brief round-up of what's going on at the periphery of the UK nazi scene.

Is the BNP bovvered by the NNP? Well yes, actually.

Readers who frequent the blogs and forums where BNP members are allowed to vent their communal spleen have observed both a marked increase in verbal attacks on Sharon Ebanks' group of BNP-rejects, the New Nationalist Party (NNP), and an even larger increase in the amount of venom expended per attack.

One of the nastier and openly pro-BNP sites on the internet is named, believe it or not, Covert Undercover Nuisance Tactics (you work out the acronym) - as rabid a bunch of thugs as you could have found in the National Front in its heyday, though the activism in this case is solely internet-based. This charming group took such exception to a Stormfront poster writing in support of Ebanks and her party that they printed his name and address for all to see - and this is someone who is well over on their side of the political spectrum! Not content with that, they have also uncompromisingly attacked Ebanks herself, posting a swathe of virulent articles complete with pictures of black TV stars labelled with her name - an obvious and hardly subtle reference to the persistent rumour that her late father was black.

Stormfront, the largest of the nazi forums, is suddenly awash with anti-Ebanks/anti-NNP posts, many of them direct attacks and insults (including one attack on the NNP deputy-chair Dave Cheetham, who was called a traitor - there being no worse insult in the disturbing world these people inhabit).

As far as Lancaster UAF and other observers can ascertain, these attacks are coming almost exclusively from the BNP members - some very prominent members indeed - who are also members of Stormfront (despite the party's proscription on membership of the forum). Which leads one to wonder why the BNP is so obviously bothered about what it describes dismissively as 'a micro-party'.

There are probably two reasons. The BNP was hoping to get its claws into Birmingham and almost did last year, when a miscount temporarily put the then BNP's Ebanks into a seat by mistake. The party is desperate to get there, despite last year's fiasco which not only lost them the seat but also Ebanks after a furious row about money. Unfortunately for the BNP, the NNP have every intention of standing in Birmingham and for all that Ebanks is as vile as racist as you could find, she also happens to put in her work in the ward, which frankly is more than can be said of practically all BNP councillors or would-be councillors. If the choice is between the nationally high-profile BNP and the locally high-profile Sharon Ebanks, it's difficult to see which way the voters would jump. The most likely outcome - and the most desirable for us, is that neither get in and the seat goes to a hard-working member of a bona-fide party without a fascist axe to grind.

The other reason for all the attacks on Ebanks revolves around her continual threats to reveal all she knows about Nick Griffin. We all know a lot about him, particularly his moral (and fiscal) bankruptcy, but Ebanks claims to have information that will destroy his so-called political career. While she teases the nazi world with the threat of startling revelations to come (maybe), her attackers are frantically destroying her credibility on the far-right. By the time she reveals all, no-one will be around to listen to her. All of which indicates that she might have something worth saying but, if she has, she'd better say it quickly.

Lancaster UAF blog readership goes up by nearly one

News reaches us that Unsteady Eddy Morrison, the laughable 'National Political Advisor' for the British People's Party (now run by Mr Inept himself, Kevin Watmough), has started reading our blog. Well, he's got nothing else to do, the poor old sod. Running over the memories of his undistinguished career in the nine hundred far-right political groups he's been a part of must have taken him all of five minutes.

Oddly, he wrote on his own blog about our reference to the BPP as a 'three man and a very large dog' party, which segues very nicely into the next item...

The England First Party is easily confused

Steven Smith (the owner of the very large dog, pictured left) is a member of the British People's Party. So why are we writing about him here? Because he is also the new Leader of the England First Party, following Mark Cotterill's resignation from the post. We have no information on which party the dog belongs to though so far it's joined its owner in the BNP, the BPP and the EFP - it's no wonder it looks depressed.

In an attempt to clear up any confusion that may have arisen from Smith's role in both parties, EFP posted a statement on its website:

'Whilst he is a member which, his joining was a show of solidarity it is not true for him to be described as a senior member he does not have any influence or input into the political direction or internal workings of the party and is 100% committed to the England First Party only.'

Which almost, but not quite, makes sense.

Steven Smith, you may recall, is the uncle of the football hooligan and violent thug, ex-BNP councillor, Luke Smith. Uncle Steve was alleged to have left following nephew Luke's expulsion from the BNP after he glassed a member of Nick Griffin's security team in the face at the BNP's family fracas, the Red White and Blue Festival. That was a fib though. Smith left the BNP because he was about to be done for electoral fraud, an act that earned him six months and a five-year ban on standing for council.

Now that the ban has ended, Smith intends to stand and to help himself has taken on the role of leader of the fast-collapsing EFP. Quite how an electoral fraudster expects to win an election is beyond most of us with brain cells but apparently he's full of confidence - even given the fact that both of the EFP's Blackburn councillors have resigned to move elsewhere.

It's no wonder Smith is a member of the BPP as well - he can obviously see there's absolutely no future for the EFP. Even less now he's involved.

The efp is dead, along with the BPP, the NF and all the rest of tem. The only party worth fighting is the BNP and to a lesser extent the NNP but surely the latter won't be standing anywhere other than Brum?If they are, I don't see any point.

I put a post up on C.U.N.T months ago. The author of that blog is so advertly racist he would have made Hitler say 'I think you're going a bit far there'.

It's a filthy site. I'm surprised Google hasn't got rid of it yet.
