BNP Cares for World War II Hero in East Midlands

Snowbound George, an ex Royal Naval war hero, was set to celebrate his 90th birthday with nothing more than a half empty tub of margarine in his freezer, reports East Midlands British National Party press officer John Ryde.

“However, George is a member of the British National Party and was called by the BNP call centre, as they are doing for all of our elderly members, to see if he was alright during the present winter weather,” Mr Ryde said.

“When they heard of his plight, the call centre immediately contacted East Midlands regional organiser Geoff Dickens who set the wheels in motion to bring food and company to George.

“Activist Peter Cheeseman found out what was needed on the shopping list and collected it from a nearby supermarket and took it round for George — and included a few luxuries.

“George asked how much he had to pay, but Pete said ‘Happy Birthday, this is on me, from one member to another.’

“The British National Party is more than a political party and it practises what it preaches. We have to thank all those caring people within the party who are making this an event right across snowbound Britain,” Mr Ryde said.

Nothing Stop's Cllr Cathy Duffy...


IT takes more than a bit of 
snow to deter intrepid BNP
councillor Cathy Duffy from
going about her council duties.

The representative for East Goscote
ward on Charnwood Council was out
and about in the bitterly cold weather
to deliver leaflets advising her constituents
of her forthcoming surgery dates. Husband 
Maurice, is very much part of her campaign 
team and he was on hand to help deliver the  
leaflets and take the photographs.

While doing the rounds, Cathy was  
stopped by a gentleman (above, right)  
who had just been made redundant 
and he had a number of questions about 
what the BNP 's policies were to get 
people back into work.

"He went away reasonably happy with 
what I told him and I said I would get a 
BNP information pack sent to him. Over 
the last few months people that you meet 
are becoming more and more interested 
in politics. I think that they are beginning 
to realise that it's time to make their voice 
heard," she told me.
