Wait a minute Mr Postman

Sheffield has over the last eight or nine years seen a collection of oddballs claim the leadership of the local party.

We have had Roy James and Iain Cain with their sex tourism to Thailand where they were sleeping with transsexuals and were so delighted with their exploits they put up pictures and videos on the internet.
Roy went as far as to enquiring on a forum dedicated to the transsexuals of Pattaya for Visa information so he could bring his little darling back to the UK.

The real driving force behind the local BNP at that time was Sarah Cain (the 14 year old daughter of Iain) who appeared in many BNP videos at the time. She was for a time the joint leader of young BNP until she did a runner to the United States to live with a family in North Carolina alleging all kinds of abuse.

The current incumbent of the poisoned chalice that is the leader of Sheffield BNP is a young man called Jordan Pont.
Now Jordan is possibly best known for his award winning camera work filming Adam Walker and a couple of local Police Officers at a pub called The Malthouse in North Sheffield after their BNP meeting was cancelled a couple of months ago. He also stormed out of an Eddy Butler reform meeting because he didn’t like hearing the criticism of Nick Griffin and the way the BNP was being run into the ground.
His youtube party political broadcast is worthy of a Bafta

He is also the Yorkshire organiser of young BNP in their current guise “The Crusaders” or whatever they are called this week and says he is a close friend of Nick Griffin.

Jordan has worked as a postman from the Woodseats sorting office for the last two or three years and he is very proud of his Woodseats heritage. He has a couple of incredibly badly done tattoos that even his friends take the piss out of.
One is the logo of his local pub called The Big Tree and the other is Woodseats in a gothic script that for reads as Woodteats to my untrained eye.

Now, unfortunately for me I live in the area served by Woodseats Sorting Office and over the last couple of months I’ve asked a few of the other local posties what they think of him and the general consensus is that he is a twat. I'm not one to argue with informed opinion.

As usual with the local BNP and despite the best efforts of the moderators Sheffield Forum is one of their main hunting grounds for new members and for putting their ideas across.

These are his views on what Britishness is

“Well it's a long list but here are some basics, standing up and celbrating British holidays without being branded a racist! Fly the Union Jack with pride without being branded a racist! support your local butcher without being branded a racist! Boycot Mosques without being branded a racist, could go on and on shall i?”

And this from last October,

“How can you say we admire Hitler.
Hitler enjoyed having muslims in his SS,
He loved the Islamic Faith!
The BNP aren't to fond on Muslims and i for one is against the Islamic Faith.

Sheffield BNP is like much of the rest of the BNP in the Country - at a very low ebb with only two candidates standing in the local council elections compared to 13 mostly paper candidates last year.

Yesterday morning Pont took part in a phone in on Toby Foster's breakfast show on BBC Radio Sheffield. Rather than transcribing the seven or so minutes of audio some kind person has uploaded it to youtube and sent the link through to us at LU.


Many thanks to Miss Pontifikate for the link.

As a little Brucie bonus here is a screen grab of Ponts Facebook page where he announced that he had been on the show. The really interesting stuff is the reaction of other BNP members and the fact that Adam Walker thinks he did ok.



Clicky for bigger and many thanks to "Big Gunz" for the screen grab.

Update This afternoon the Royal Mail press dept released this statement :-

A Royal Mail spokesman said: "Royal Mail has very clear policies to
ensure that all of its people behave in a way that at no time brings
the business into disrepute. We also work extremely hard to treat
all our customers with respect.

"We do not comment on the detail of individual cases. However, we
can confirm that, following a media interview on Wednesday, an
employee has been suspended and further urgent investigations are
underway."
