Vile BNP member Vivienne Parker has unsupervised access to psychologically vulnerable and physically disabled persons. With her internet race hate postings against Blacks, Ghurkas, Asians and Muslims exposed, there is the real prospect that disabled non-White persons may be at risk of abuse at the hands of Vivienne Parker.

Vivienne Parker’s racial abuse of Blacks as “evil savages” full of “wickedness”

My interest in BNP member Vivienne Parker was originally elicited by her following internet posting in which she racially abuses Blacks in the most repugnant and vitriolic of terms:

“God created negroes black as a warning. They are mostly evil savages and cannot be trusted. everywhere they go they create mayhem,evil and ghettoes. All of Africa stinks,esp.sub-saharan African which oozes with wickedness and evil behaviour. Taking blacks into civilized countries is a big mistake and the price will be paid in perpetuity as blacks scrounge off welfare and predate decent white people.”

Vivienne Parker’s attack on British Ghurkha soldiers

Alas, for purveyors of civility this is not an isolated, random outburst by Downham Market-resident Vivienne Parker. Not content with drubbing Black people with her caustic BNP tongue, Vivienne Parker attacks Ghurkha soldiers, who have so bravely served our country, in her following posting on The Times website:

“I do not agree with allowing Gurkhas to settle in the UK. They get a contract of service so why should we then be saddled with them and their grannies. Another huge financial drop on the UK taxpayer. If this becomes the normal I think its time to end Gurkha recruitment to the British army for good. Viv Parker, Norfolk, UK”

Given that only a few hundred Gurkhas will eventually settle in the UK and given that they defended our country, why is Vivienne Parker getting bent out of shape by the prospect of a small number of Gurkha soldiers taking up British citizenship? Because the Gurkhas are non-White, naturally Vivienne Parker and the BNP hate them for this random accident of birth.

Vivienne Parker’s racial abuse of Asians and Muslims as “evil” and “parasites”

In numerous postings on the BNP website and elsewhere, Vivienne Parker goes on to racially abuses Asians, Pakistanis and Muslims as “parasites” and “evil”. These are quite sweeping and profoundly racist statements. Alarmingly, Vivienne Parker (who partly resides in Spain) has unsupervised access to physically disabled persons and pensioners. In light of Vivienne Parker’s racist views we wonder how such a person is permitted unfettered access to such vulnerable groups.

Refuting the racist lies of Vivienne Parker’s BNP postings

Like all good fascists and racists, Vivienne Parker has a severe aversion to empirical facts and an inherent, indisputable inclination towards lies, hyperbole and hysteria (a BNP specialism). In this section, we dissect and refute Vivienne Parker’s racist claims against Asians, Pakistanis and Muslims made on the BNP website in her two following postings:

“As long as we ‘reward’ these people for breeding they will continue to come and breed. Family allowances and child allowances were designed for the nuclear family of 1-3 children. Its quite normal for Asians to have 7-14 children and with Islamics having more than one wife the whole process is a real moneyspinner for them. We need to pay for the first 3 children only. That would help solve the breeding problem of these parasites”.

“The average Pakistani family have 7 kids and this is in the UK. How much is that in child support?”

Source: http://www.bnp.org.uk/2007/12/mohammed-to-beat-jack-as-top-uk-boys-name/

Viv Parker Racist Claim No. 1: “Its quite normal for Asians to have 7-14 children

This is a lie by Vivienne Parker. According to the government’s UK Statistics Authority no Asian group in the UK has 7-14 children per couple as Vivienne Parker fantastically claims! Unlike Vivienne Parker, the UK Statistics Authority breakdown the category ‘Asian’ and accordingly provide empirically-grounded figures for each of the main three Asian sub-categories as follows:

Indian women (comprised of Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists and Christians): average 2.4 children

Pakistani women: average 3.4 children

Bangladeshi women: average 3.6 children

source: http://www.statistics.gov.uk/cci/nugget.asp?id=961

So, it is clear that ‘Asians’ don’t have 7-14 children as Vivienne Parker’s made-up racist claims on the BNP website state. Vivienne Parker Lie No.1 refuted.

Vivienne Parker Racist Claim No. 2: “The average Pakistani family have 7 kids

Another classic Vivienne Parker lie. As we have seen from the above UK Statistics Authority figures, a Pakistani woman in the UK has on average 3.4 children, not seven children. Vivienne Parker Lie No.2 refuted.

Vivienne Parker Racist Claim No. 3: “with Islamics having more than one wife

The number of British Muslims in polygamous marriages does not even reach one-tenth of one percent of all Muslims in the UK! Pejoratively referring to Muslims as ‘Islamics’, Vivienne Parker again does not provide any evidence for her unfounded lies. In fact, based on Department for Work and Pensions figures for the number of polygamous marriages in the UK (not all them Muslim), only 0.06% of Muslims are estimated to be in polygamous relationships! The actual figure could be even lower. Vivienne Parker Lie No.3 refuted.

Vivienne Parker Racist Claim No. 4: “How much is that in child support

Vivienne Parker doesn’t know what ‘child support’ is! No one in the UK can claim child support from the government! Child support is a private arrangement between two private citizens using their own private funds! Child support payments arise when a child’s parents separate, live apart and the child lives with one of their parents. One parent pays money to the other parent with whom the child lives. Once again Vivienne Parker exposes her own ignorance (coupled with a great deal of arrogance to make any of her claims in the first place). Vivienne Parker is trying to imply, based on her lie that the average British Pakistani family has seven children (refuted above), that Pakistanis are a drain on public resources by claiming ‘child support’ for their mythically large families. Vivienne Parker Lie No.4 refuted.

Viv Parker Racist Claim No. 5: “As long as we ‘reward’ these people for breeding they will continue to come and breed. Family allowances and child allowances

Again, Vivienne Parker is trying to assert that Asians and Muslims are sponging off the welfare state by claiming family allowances and child allowances. This is another Vivienne Parker lie. Research by the famous and respected Fawcett Society reveals that 30% of people from ethnic minorities eligible for benefits do not receive them; that Pakistani and Bangladeshi families are more likely to be ineligible for child benefits and child tax credits; and, that black women have the least access to free childcare. Vivienne Parker Lie No.5 refuted.

Mad dogs and BNP members: Vivienne ‘The Patriot’ Parker tells us that Spain is better than Britain!

It is clear that Vivienne Parker has spent too much time in the hot Spanish sun. The distinct image of ‘Mad dogs and BNP members’ irreverently comes to mind. In addition to her online rants, perhaps Vivienne Parker should stop writing letters to her local newspaper to tell us how much better Spain is then Britain and how unbelievably cheap property in Spain. One would hazard a guess that the Spanish don’t exactly go out of their way to invite BNP parochialites such as Vivienne Parker to their Moorish-tinged Iberian shores. Further, if Vivienne Parker doesn’t like immigrants in Britain, then she’s definitely not going to the fact that immigrants make up a greater proportion of the Spanish population than here in the UK.

Can Vivienne Parker self-hypnotise herself out of her own BNP stupidity?

Vivienne Parker claims to be a ‘transpersonal hypnotherapist’ providing past-life regression services to those persons she describes as having “deep rooted problems and issues”. This raises the serious prospect that she has access to vulnerable persons who could be exploited by Vivienne Parker’s racist agenda. Interestingly, Vivienne Parker describes past-life regression as a therapeutic tool that “is very effective for all sorts of phobias and behaviour fixations”. We suggest that Vivienne Parker appropriate her self-accredited therapeutic skills and self-hypnotise herself out of her own self-induced phobias and behaviour fixations – her overwhelming and neurotic racist obsession with non-Whites. Vivienne Parker may also find the following organisation for hypnotherapists particularly useful: the London-based Prevention of Professional Abuse Network. It is referred to in a hypnotherapist article, Professional Abuse. The article lists six areas where therapists can abuse clients in violation of their professional ethics. One of those areas is racism. The article explains that:

“Racial abuse can be both direct and indirect, and can also be surprisingly discrete. A number of years ago a relationship between a supervisor and the therapist under supervision deteriorated when the supervisor learned that their supervisee was involved in a long term and stable inter-racial relationship. Nothing was ever said but a lot was communicated in other ways. Racism is not always a colour issue either – prejudices are frequently pervasive and often ill defined”.

The hypnotherapist community, via best practice, is trying to rid itself of, amongst other things, racist practitioners. Yet, Vivienne Parker is intent, it seems, through the practice of her racist beliefs, on impeding such efforts.

What further concerns us is that Vivienne Parker is the organiser for the Downham Happy Circle Disabled Club for physically disabled persons (most of the members are pensioners). Now, what if some of those disabled persons are Black, Asian or Muslim? Given her rabid hatred for non-Whites, can Vivienne Parker, we ask, be trusted in such a position of responsibility? No BNP member can, especially Vivienne Parker. Not only does she gratuitously defend the racist killers of Black teenager Stephen Lawrence in a twisted posting on the Daily Mail website but she comes to close to admitting to a desire for physical violence against Muslim women in her following internet posting:

Whenever I see a [Muslim] woman in the UK wearing either the niquab or burka I have an overwhelming desire to ...

Why don’t you finish that thought Vivienne Parker?

Midlands BNP leader demands Gurkhas are banned from staying in UK

7 Comment (s)
Veteran soldiers have rubbished a Midland BNP leader for claiming there is ‘no space’ in Britain for Gurkha heroes.

Simon Darby said his far-right party wanted the Government to ban the Nepalese soldiers from living in the UK. But his comments were condemned by the Royal British Legion, days after the Gurkhas won a landmark victory to settle here following a campaign led by Ab Fab actress Joanna Lumley.

Deputy BNP leader Mr Darby, who is standing as a West Midlands candidate in next month’s Euro elections, was filmed saying the famous fighting soldiers should be barred from Britain earlier this month. He had been questioned on the BNP’s stance on the issue and said: “This question highlights the way the British army is opening itself up to become a mercenary army, with so many foreign people serving in it. It’s a bad idea, right, a bad idea.

“Nowhere in the Gurkha’s contracts – all those Gurkhas – does it say that you have a right to live in this country after your service. Yes, within reason some of them can stay. But 100,000 people? For Heaven’s sake. It’s not on is it? No.”

But Robert Lee, Head of Campaigns at the Royal British Legion, said: “We have made it possible for 186 Gurkhas to live here while they campaigned for justice. “In that regard we are 100 per cent Joanna Lumley and 0 per cent BNP. The Royal British Legion fully supports the rights of the Gurkhas to live in Britain because we feel they would make a long-lasting and valuable contribution to society.”

And a spokesman for anti-fascist campaigners Searchlight also criticised the BNP comments. He said: “It’s difficult to know what is more nauseating, Darby’s prejudice or his hypocrisy. In public he pretends to support the Gurkhas, but in front of his bigoted supporters he attacks them as mercenaries. The Gurkhas have fought and died for this country for generations, yet even they are not immune from Simon Darby’s vile smears.’’

The video emerged in the same week BNP leader Nick Griffin was condemned for claiming ‘Gurkha ghettos’ would emerge should they win the right to settle in Britain.

But Mr Darby, who previously attracted criticism for calling Ugandans ‘spear-throwers’, defended his latest comments about the brave foreign soldiers.

He said: “Look, I don’t want to see a couple of old boys get kicked out, but the idea of 100,000 of them coming over is just unacceptable, there just isn’t enough space. It is simply a matter of space. For me the answer is to allow them medical treatment and give them a proper pension, but they shouldn’t be allowed to settle here.”

Lumley: BNP sickos slur hero Gurkha

12 Comment (s)
Angry Joanna Lumley last night blasted a British National Party leaflet targeting a heroic Gurkha recently killed in action.

The Ab Fab star branded as “disgusting” the racist party’s use of a picture of Corporal Kumar Pun* with a cross through it. Thousands of the hate-filled leaflets also demand: “Stop this illegal Gurkha immigration.”

They were issued by teacher Adam Walker, a BNP candidate in next month’s European elections. His party warns of “Gurkha ghettos” if the Nepalese fighters win the right to settle here.

Joanna, 63, said: “The use of a brave British Army Gurkha’s photograph as part of their political campaign is disgusting, especially as he has not yet been buried. A vote for the BNP is a vote against all Gurkhas, against honour, sacrifice, duty and courage.”

Joanna yelled their war cry “Ayo Gorkhali” — “The Gurkhas are coming — outside the House of Commons last month after MPs backed her bid to let all Gurkhas who served in the British Army live here. Ministers ruled last week that Corporal Kumar’s widow and two daughters can stay in Britain. But in his leaflet for the European elections, Mr Walker, of Durham, uses scare tactics to demand they are sent packing.

It reads: “The Government would allow over half a million Gurkhas into this country. This will swamp our local housing and the NHS as most Gurkhas are elderly. They would contribute nothing.”

Last night a spokesman for the anti-racist group Searchlight said: “For the BNP to slur the memory of a serviceman who has laid down his life for his country is sick beyond belief.”

Sedgefield Labour MP Phil Wilson added: “This leaflet just shows what the BNP stand for. I was shocked. I didn’t think that even this party would go that far. It’s an absolute disgrace.

Gordon Brown has promised to review Gurkhas’ rights after a campaign led by Joanna, whose father fought with the brigade. About 36,000 have been denied UK residency despite being prepared to die for the country.

BNP leader Nick Griffin warned of “Gurkha ghettos” and vowed to remove all non-serving Gurkhas.

Technology teacher Mr Walker, 39, left Houghton Kepier Sports College in Houghton-le-Spring, Tyne and Wear, in 2007. He is being investigated over claims he used a school laptop in lessons to contribute racist views to online chats.

Keep brave Gurkhas out of Britain says BNP

21 Comment (s)
Nick Griffin yesterday branded Gurkhas "mercenaries" who should not be allowed to stay in Britain.

The leader of the far-right British National Party said: "We don't think the most overcrowded country in Europe, can realistically say, 'Look, you can all come and all your relatives.' When the Gurkhas signed up - frankly as mercenaries - they expected a pension which would allow them to live well in their own country.

"Because of economic development in Nepal, the British Army pension isn't now enough for them to be able to do that. It would be cheaper for us and probably far better for the Gurkhas to say, 'Why don't we just increase your pension so that more of you can live in Nepal rather than coming to Britain?'"

Griffin made the comments on Nicky Campbell's BBC Radio 5 Live breakfast show.

Martin Howe, solicitor to the Gurkhas, said: "Nick Griffin is wrong. He does not recognise the depth of feeling around the country that this is a debt of moral honour and gratitude."

Griffin also claimed football stars Rio Ferdinand, Theo Walcott and David James are not English. And when Campbell asked if he would let his daughter bring a black man home, he said: "I would be disappointed."
