BNP panic spreading across Merseyside

Anti- BNP panic spreading across Merseyside

Anti-BNP hysteria has broken out across Liverpool as former footballing "superstars" are being coerced into the campaign to undermine local democracy in a city where the BNP has six candidates.

Jamaican-born, former Liverpool star John Barnes was the first to wade in with a rather ill thought-out offering to the Liverpool Echo. He said: "We live in a free society which means people can stand for election no matter what their views. In this sense I believe as a country we can sometimes be too liberal because ideally the BNP would be banned." (Mr. Barnes might be interested to learn how many people are killed in "democratic" elections in the Caribbean Island of his birth!)


Elections-Jamaican Style. Burnt out cars, assassinations, kidnaps and violent intimidation mark the so-called "democracy" of this most populous of Caribbean islands, home to former footballer John Barnes.


Mr. Barnes, who was frequently booed for his lack-lustre England performances, then went on to trump his somewhat nonsensical sentence with a comment that would shock even die hard "anti-racists". Apparently deploring an excess of white people he amazingly stated: "When I first came here I was shocked when I walked along Church Street because there were so few black people working in the shops. "In London it was totally different. Now, like most British cities, Liverpool has changed for the better and there are many more black people prominent in everyday life."

Well John, as a so called "anti-racist" defending the democratic process, all we can say is, don't give up your day job.

The Liverpool Echo did not waste any time in encouraging a former Everton player to join Mr. Barnes nauseating venture into the realms of politics as well . "I hope the people of Liverpool will reject the BNP at the ballot box because Liverpool is a great city which does not deserve to be saddled with extremists."

Were the words attributed to ex-Everton star Pat Nevin? However, a little further on the newspaper and Mr. Nevin scored a spectacular own goal by admitting that Mr. Nevin had refused the delights of multicultural Liverpool and voted with his feet - "Nevin, 39, now lives in (all-White) Berwick in Scotland with his wife and two children."

"Anti-racist" campaigner Pat Nevin. The obvious question media pundits should be asking is why Mr. Nevin moved from the multi-cultural "paradise" of Liverpool to the exclusively white town of Berwick. Perhaps the lower crime rate and a friendly (white) face in every shop, school, and household was a factor?



With a rapidly increasing vote share these attempts to besmirch the British National Party are becoming increasingly untenable. The politically correct, multiracial fanatics occupying some aspects of our mass media are about to learn a very hard lesson. The BNP don't just seek to represent the British people, we ARE the British people; the descendants of the very folk that carved out an existence from the forests, the marshlands and the highland peat bogs thousands of years ago. We are their living blood line and this remains our only home. We can defend it or just hand it over to those that would be happy to enslave and exploit us! Make YOUR vote count on May 1st.

IMC is not a platform for political parties, not least racist, far-right ones like the BNP

The small-minded racism that is taking over..

in this country is really starting to make me feel ill.

I have lived in predominantly white areas (small middle-class northern villages) and in massively multi-cultural areas and I for one know what I prefer.

My favourite music is Jamaican, my favourite food is Indian, my favourite films are Hong-kong Chinese... I could go on.

If you people want to live in little "whites only areas" then off you go - form a little white comunity and build a wall around it.

Believe me, no-one will miss you.

All the waves of settlement by the peoples of this world into little old Britain have made it the thriving centre for innovation, culture and human endevour that it is (when not being held back by small minded racists who pine after the "good" old days of intolerance and racial hatred).

Where does this insecurity in yourself come from? Why do you have to hide behind a racial stereotype to feel worth? Are you afraid that without the indentity of "white and proud" you will be revealed for the worthless human being that you really are?
