Information has reached us here at the Kirklees Unity newsdesk that the Mirfield BNP candidate is an alleged convicted fraudster.

Apparently the Cookson family used to live in the Dewsbury Moor area of Dewsbury.


We know for a fact that Andrew Cookson was born,lived and educated in Dewsbury,only moving to the Mirfield area around 4 years ago.

The informant told us that allegedly Andrew Cookson spent time in prison for obtaining credit cards by deception.Allegedly in the name of his dead father.

Now as we keep saying,these are all allegations,we will be happy to remove this post if we find that the information is incorrect.

We find it rather ironic that unemployed Cookson on his election address criticizes the police saying they should be dealing with real criminals.

Is this another Kirklees BNP criminal that we can add to the already long list?
