The last three months since the General Election have been a fascinating insight into how the BNP functions and it seems like each day since then there has been a major cock up, calamity or act committed under the BNPs and Griffins "interesting" idea of internal democracy.
Todays latest news is that Julian Leppert (former councillor), John Savage (S.W. Fundholder) and Chris Roberts (London Organiser) are amongst about 20 BNP activists at the latest count suspended today. They are being investigated for "serious breaches of the BNP code of conduct" after supporting Eddy Butlers leadership nomination.
With the nominations for leadership closing tomorrow one has to ask if Griffin is so worried about Butler getting close to the amount that he needs, is he purging the people who are Butlers most vocal supporters that can be identified from the various websites and fora?
The timing of the letters is a bit of a surprise with it being the day before the nominations close unless of course this is a total cock up by Griffin & Dowson enterprises and they should have arrived tomorrow.

Interesting that the suspension letters (according to a posting on Butler's blog) were posted from Spennymoor, Co. Durham, the world headquarters of Squalidarity and home of the Walker bros.
ReplyDeleteWord on the street is that the Walkers are out of synch with the rest of the North East bnp and in the forthcoming split might be the centrepiece of a Griffinite rump with Molloy and Scott.
The Walkers, of course, are dependant on Cyclops for their liveihoods. Molloy's just a tag along. Scott really should make some comment on the unconstitutional suspensions on his Civil Liberty blog - should be a laugh watching him defend Griffin against his comrades.
Where did you get that list from is there anymore?

It is on Butlers blog.
The article on there about the election expenses is an interesting read.
yes the timing is interesting and would indicate butler has there or there abouts enough signatures for a challenge.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it could be quite an interesting few days.

ReplyDeleteUltimate toothless tiger.
There is no liberty in the BNP.
And its officers are far from civil
Its amazing that Dicky Barnbrook and the other idiot sorry cant remember his name hve not received a letter either.
ReplyDeleteIf you were to look at the decision to suspend others sensibly then these 2 should be at the top of the list, they have both put up blogs and encouraged others to nominate them.
Mind you Dicky has obviously been on a bender since Thursday as noothing new has appeared on his blog.

There are all sorts of rumours going around at the moment but we would prefer facts if you have them.
It would be quite amusing if Eddy Butler didn't have enough support to make a leadership challenge, but did have enough of a case to make a court challenge.
