The BNP has just announced that it is scrapping plans to move its national media office to a unit on the Salmon Springs trading estate near Stroud following opposition.
This statement was sent to the SNJ this morning.
"The local economy in Stroud and Painswick has been deprived of many thousands of pounds of ancillary business and a number of jobs after the British National Party announced that it was going to seek office accommodation elsewhere following protests organised by the local far left anti-democratic Socialist Party, Nick Griffin MEP has announced.
“Previously, the BNP had announced its intention of moving its national media department to a unit on the Salmon Springs Trading Estate between Stroud and Painswick."
The statement then goes on to refer to the Say No To The BNP protest meeting due to be held tonight, Wednesday, at the Space.
The statement continues: “The BNP is a recognised political party for which a million people have voted. We have five national offices across the country, and have many other accommodation possibilities open to us where we are welcomed by democratically-minded people.
"It is no problem to us, but is a blow to the local economy because all the office supplies, rates and taxes and ancillary business which employees in the area would bring, have now been lost to Stroud and Painswick."
The Say No To The BNP protest meeting is still going ahead at 7.30pm at the Space, Lansdown, Stroud tonight, Wednesday. Organisers fear the party may look for another location for its media operation in the Five Valleys.

I don't know why you bothered. Stroud was NEVER going to have an office there. The main hub belongs to the snake oil salesman in Belfast. Stroud was just a sop to members in England. You did them a favour by opposing it. Now they can continue in Belfast.

And look how well Belfast is going.
Lets face it they couldnt afford the rent on the unit.......... I'd imagine that the life memberships are hardly flying off the shelf and the 'fight the EHRC' thermometer (after being mysteriously reset) has been stuck on '9' (pounds, pence, buttons, 2nd hand chewing gum, who knows!) for ages.
ReplyDeleteAs has been mentioned it was all a scam to leave Dowson with his face in the trough in Belfast.
Have to agree with anonymous. You've done Griffin and Dowson a favour. Now they have an excuse for leaving the Stroud office empty.
ReplyDeleteMore likely you are frightened of democracy mr griffin, when you try to move your tinpot organistation into a democratic town the residents oppose you. Isnt that the same 'freedom of speech' your sheeple are so prone to shouting about?
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who thinks that this talk of "five national offices", jobs for Stroud, thousands of pounds of lost income etc is like Hitler in his Berlin bunker moving imaginary forces around a big map of Central Europe?
ReplyDeleteBNP - going down !!!
I do wonder just how they are financing 5 offices, even if they are empty of staff they still have to pay business rate tax?
ReplyDeletetulip
They could always set up office in a phone box. Probably more appropriate
ReplyDeleteBreaking news........
ReplyDeleteNutzie central has found a way around the "Extortionate business rates being charged by local authorities, so that they can finance 5* accomodation for the millions of illegal immigrants invading our shores and taking the jobs from our brave war heroes... etc", they have decided to opt for a mobile media hub that will tour the country providing state of the art media services to the ever expanding bnp regions. The ultra modern media centre will be leased to the bnp by generous donor Lord scrotal sac Dowson (http://www.bbc.co.uk/nottingham/content/images/2005/08/25/tramp_master_361x470.gif). We have been given a sneak preview of the 'fastest growing party in britain's' latest hi tech weapon in the fight against immigrants, lefties and unpatriotic traitors. Patriots, I present to you the 'media mansion': http://s0.geograph.org.uk/photos/37/94/379480_8fe2a264.jpg
Thanks, boys and girls, we never liked Stroud!
ReplyDeleteNonsense again. These are the scrutiny panels recommendations and nothing to do with opposition. That's just Griffin putting his spin on the reorganising.
