Muslim Turkey’s Attack on Leaflet “Proof of the Danger of EU’s Expansion” says BNP Leader

The demand by the Muslim country of Turkey for the withdrawal of British National Party leaflets objecting to that nation’s inclusion into the European Union is proof that the BNP’s position on the matter is correct, Nick Griffin has said.

In his reaction to the news that the Turkish embassy in London has formally complained to the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office over the BNP European election material, Mr Griffin said the reaction “showed that the Turkish government had a fundamentally flawed understanding of what democracy was, and that democracy included the right to free speech.

“We would never dream of trying to dictate to Turkey what it should allow and what it should not, even when it for example officially criminalises anyone promoting the 1915 Armenian genocide,” Mr Griffin said, referring to the near extermination of Armenia by the Ottoman Turkish Empire during World War One. That atrocity is officially denied by the present Turkish government, despite worldwide disapproval.

“The point is that Turkey has a very poor track record of democracy and free speech, and its demand for the suppression of a perfectly legitimate political party’s election material in another country shows exactly how dangerous it would be to expand the EU to include this 99 percent Muslim nation,” Mr Griffin said.

The leaflets to which the Turkish embassy objected were not in fact, as it wrongly claimed, distributed only in Scotland. The 29 million leaflets have been distributed nationwide, and were legally vetted by the Post Office before that body undertook their distribution, as is the norm, Mr Griffin added.

“There is therefore no chance that the leaflets contain anything contrary to the law, so the Turkish embassy is crying for the moon.

“The real lesson to be learned from all of this is just how perilous the European Union is, and why adding another 80 million Muslims to that organisation will be the first step towards creating Eurabia. This will mean the extinction of Europe itself under a tidal wave of ‘freedom of movement’ EU nationals.

“The past record shows exactly to which country these ‘free movement EU nationals’ always aim,” he said.

In addition to the main election address, another leaflet to which the Turkish embassy has objected states that taxpayers’ money “shouldn’t be wasted on expanding Europe so that millions of Muslims in Turkey can join the invasion of foreign job snatchers.”

It also urges voters to “oppose the dangerous drive backed by the other main parties to give 80m low-wage Muslim Turks the right to swamp Britain.”

Orhan Tung, a spokesman for the Turkish embassy, was quoted in the media as saying that his government believes “that the relevant British authorities such as the Equality and Human Rights Commission should consider taking legal action against the party in question.”

BNP Would Take Hazel Blear’s Parliamentary Seat in Election, Reports Sunday Express

The Tory-supporting Sunday Express has broken ranks with the rest of the controlled media and has honestly reported on the rising tide of support for the British National Party, today publishing a poll which claimed that the BNP would win the parliamentary seat of Communities Minister Hazel Blears if an election were held.

Completely refuting other controlled media claims of the BNP polling “one percent” of the vote, the Sunday Express conducted its own poll in Salford, seat of Ms Blears, and found that the BNP picked up 38.4 percent support. The other parties polled as follows, according to the newspaper: Labour 19.2 percent; Tories 13.4 percent; Liberal Democrats 10.7 percent; Greens and UKIP 7.1 percent each.

This result, says that newspaper, means that “Nick Griffin is on course to win a seat in the European Parliament next month on the back of a tidal wave of public anger over MPs’ expenses.”

The newspaper goes on to say that the BNP is one of the “main beneficiaries of public disgust with the political establishment. The survey of 500 voters showed that Ms Blears would lose her seat because of revelations that she claimed thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money on three homes in a single year.

“She also used a legal dodge to avoid paying more than £13,000 in capital gains tax, which she has offered to repay.”

The paper says that “if the result is repeated across the North-West in next month’s European Parliament elections Mr Griffin will be elected to Brussels.”

In his reaction to the report, Mr Griffin, talking to BNP News from Cumbria where he is currently campaigning, said that he was not surprised.

“All our canvass returns show that we are doing very well in all areas around the country. In fact, Salford is one of our weaker areas, which makes the Sunday Express article all the more interesting.”

Mr Griffin said that that he was yesterday campaigning in several towns along the Cumbrian coast, and that the public is “if anything more in our favour than what the Express says.”

He also noted that almost all the old party activists are on strike, refusing to come out and canvass because their Westminster leaders have so utterly shamed them with the expenses scandal.

The Sunday Express opinion that the BNP will be the main beneficiary of the current political fallout was echoed today in an article in the Sunday edition of The Scotsman in Edinburgh. Admitting that Mr Griffin correctly predicted “homegrown Islamic terrorists” and that an “aftershock from a cataclysmic implosion of American capitalism would ripple through the world like a financial tsunami, spreading hardship into every corner of the globe,” The Scotsman goes on to say that the expenses scandal, which it describes as a “profound” domestic “crisis”, has propelled the BNP to “centre stage in the forthcoming local and Euro elections.”

Peppering its article with the usual ant-BNP hatred, The Scotsman goes on to say that the “confluence of the war on terror, the credit crunch and the public's incandescent rage at the expenses scandal which has debased parliament has produced a perfect storm” for the party.

The Scotsman article then confirmed that on the streets of Carlisle, where its reporter accompanied Mr Griffin recently while he was campaigning, “roughly 80 percent of people took their fliers, with a quarter of them stopping to talk. Each of the voters who engaged with Griffin said afterwards that they were actively contemplating voting for him,” said The Scotsman.

Quoting some of the reactions, The Scotsman said that the reasons people gave for supporting the BNP varied. “My interest stems from the fact that the indigenous people of this country are treated far worse than anyone else," that paper quoted a pensioner identified as Eileen. “I don't have anything against anyone of a different colour or creed but charity begins at home. It's ridiculous that people are coming here and sponging off our social services, and getting things ahead of people who've worked hard all their lives. I think it's got to stop. I've had enough.

"The BNP are the party that will best represent me; I don't want to be European, I'm proud to be British and what it stands for. Nobody asked me if I wanted to be multicultural and I don't want to be. We're not even consulted; we're just expected to take what's given. The BNP's the only party that's going to keep us British and I know a lot of people who think that way too. I don't think they'll win here but I think it'll be close. The British people have completely lost faith in the main parties," The Scotsman article continued.

“Even angrier was James, a married freight train driver in his thirties whose sense of dislocation from the political classes was palpable. ‘I'm interested in the BNP because they're upsetting people who've been upsetting me for a bloody long time and because they're outside the mainstream,’ he said. `I've long held views about politicians which have recently become quite fashionable; it's like the whole nation's woken up. That's why I am, for the first time, considering voting for the BNP.’

“Pensioner Linda Smith is another convert. ‘The government have really shown their true colours; I felt the same even before the expenses because they're all busy doing for themselves,’ she says. `This will be my first time voting for the BNP; I'm usually a Conservative voter. Lots of my friends are going to vote for them and I think they'll do very, very well’,” reported The Scotsman.

Labour Minister Tells UK Graduates to Leave Britain if They Want a Job

In a shocking display of arrogance we have come to expect from the Government, Labour’s Universities Minister David Lammy has told British youth to “go overseas” if they want a job.
Mr Lammy (who obtained his degrees after being given handouts by the Inner London Education Authority, said the 300,000 people who graduate from universities in this country every year should consider “working abroad, whether in internships or volunteering, to avoid the worst of the recession.”
Incredibly, the government funded National Health Service has just launched a campaign to advertise for university graduates in India to come to Britain to work, said BNP education spokesman Joan Bridge-Taylor.
“What Mr Lammy is telling young British people is that he and his colleagues at Westminster have so destroyed the British economy that there will not even be any work opportunities for them anymore,” Mrs Bridge-Taylor said.
Mr Lammy’s suggestion to graduates to leave the country has also been backed by the ultra-leftist extremist National Union of Students, which, when it is not campaigning against the BNP, will also be handing out leaflets telling students to go away over the next few weeks.
“It is an indictment on the ruling elite when government ministers have to admit in public that people should leave the country rather than work to build it up,” Mrs Bridge-Taylor said.
“Britain is becoming more and more like a Third World country every day, and Mr Lammy’s announcement merely confirms this.
“The statistics show that the number of foreigners in employment in Britain is steadily rising, and the number of British people in work is dropping,” she said.
“This is a national disgrace, and borders on treason. The time has come for a government which will actively protect British jobs and which will rebuild the British economy through, sound, sensible and practical policies designed to protect our society and put our own people first,” Mrs Bridge-Taylor said.
“The only party which has this policy is the BNP. The voters have the choice, therefore, to vote for a party which will put their interests first, or stick with the old Labour/Con/Lib-Dem treason on June 4th.”
