I've just heard that a court in London has just found against Nick Griffin and the BNP. We believe that he now has to find another £90,000 to pay off the 'Decembrists' - a group of former members and party employees who challenged his leadership and were subsequently sacked and expelled. They were sacked in February 2008 and the case came to court in December 2010.
This could turn out to be a very expensive day for Nick Griffin. The party is also appearing in a Bristol court for the latest saga in the on-going Employment Tribunal hearing relating to Michaela MacKenzie, another former party employee who was sacked after falling out with the party leadership. She successfully won an Employment Tribunal in June 2010 but Griffin has refused to pay the £25,000 she is believed to have been awarded in the settlement.
Update
Further details are now reaching us regarding the outcome of the "Decembrist" case against Nick Griffin and the BNP.
This morning in the Royal Courts of Justice,Lord Justice Ward dismissed Nick Griffin and Simon Darby's application for leave to appeal in the Decembrist case.
The £45,000 that had previously been paid into the Court Funds Office is today being paid out to the solicitors for the "Decembrists". Costs totalled around £111,000 when they were calculated back in December 2010. In addition to any further costs incurred this year, Griffin and Darby will have to pay 8% interest.
Lord Justice Ward told Griffin & Darby's barrister "You've done very well. I'm unimpressed, I'm afraid. It's not your fault. None of the arguments are substantial enough to give a realistic prospect of success. I see no realistic prospect of success and I dismiss the application."

ReplyDeleteI don't believe this Wigton place actually exists. If it does, how come anti-fascists have never been to visit?
slightly odd comments from the judge - they read slightly confusingly - are we sure they're a full summary of what was said??
ReplyDeleteI see Simon Darby is trying to get a Lottery syndicate together to support the party. Desprerate or what???
ReplyDelete"I don't believe this Wigton place actually exists."
ReplyDeleteIt was shown on the Panorama programme last month.
The BNP trumpeted "British jobs for British people" and then had its leaflets printed in Croatia. In response to a general outcry, the BNP then had its literature printed in Britain - but failed to pay its bills, thus bringing about the closure of at least one small British printing firm with a loss of many jobs.
ReplyDeleteSo much for that.
The BNP trumpeted "British jobs for British people" and then treated its own British people like shit, sacking employees left right and centre without due process.
At last the hypocrits of the BNP are being held to account for this one. It's a start.

I'm sure that Jefferscum has already stamped the invoice as 'paid'.

Dear Simon,
I think you may have made some mistake with the lottery syndicate this week, Helen and I have checked our numbers and I think that some of ours came up!
Onwards and Upwards,
Gary and Helen, bnp members, bnp gold members, Trafalgar club members and completely ficticious people.
Dear Gary and Helen,
thank you for being so observant (grrr). When your cheque and numbers arrived I checked them and found that you had used some very unpatriotic numbers, which will obviously never come up, so I altered them to some more suitable ones. Nick and I have also planted a mole in bbc headquarters and we know for a FACT that they remove some of the balls, so I changed the rest of your numbers.
I would suggest that next week you increase the number of sets you wish to place to give us a greater chance of a massive victory.
I shall be unable to check the numbers for the next few weeks as nick and I have to attend a really important conference in tenerifee, at the playa ufor amug hotel. It is the "Financial incorporation baloney and latest integration economics summit, the so called FIB and LIE summit. Actually it is so important that we are taking a full heavyweight team to fight for Britains corner, Clive and the Walker brothers will be joining us for the duration.
I will be tweeting over the course of the summit with details of the 'all you can eat buffet'. Watch this space.
Simon.
