BNP's Turkish Delight

Hypocrisy of a BNP candidate from Yorkshire ups ship and moves to Muslim Turkey

Turkish Delight
Turkish Delight


It never ever surprises us at KU HQ the crass hypocrisy that is the BNP in Yorkshire and in particular the never ending list of idiots within the Cass family.

So it came as no shock when we read a letter in this weeks "Dewsbury Press" from none other than Gillian Leake.

Who is Gillian Leake you might be asking?

Previously known as Gillian Cass she is the favourite aunt of none other than the ginger Fuhrer himself Nick Cass,Yorkshire and Humber organiser and failed election candidate.

Sister of failed Heckmondwike BNP candidate Steve Cass.

Like the vast majority in the Cass family,she is a raving fascist and a failed election candidate as well.

She has a long list of election defeats behind her,having stood in both Kirklees and Leeds despite actually living in Boston Spa,most recently she stood just this May in the Weetwood ward of Leeds receiving a rather pitiful 4.5% and came 5th.

Note that she used her address in Boston Spa as the address on her nomination papers.

So we read her letter with delicious irony when it appeared in the BNP's favorite newspaper "The Press"

Here is the letter:

"A GREAT EXAMPLE by Gillian Leake Turkey" "Dear Sir,I would like to know why most Asian women in Batley and Dewsbury wear the veil.Religion? no way. (KU. They don't,but remember she lives in leafy Boston Spa/Turkey)

My husband and I have moved and are now living in Turkey,a Muslim country,and you do not see any women wearing the veil.They wear normal dress (KU.Normal dress? In an Islamic country that would be--Islamic clothing then.)

Some women wear a headscarf,which in the 50's and 60's our mothers wore.The women and men of Turkey do not shove religion down our throats like they do in England (KU. Correct me if I am wrong but isn't the Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Erdogan a staunch Islamist?)

It is about time the people in England stood up to these people.(KU. Or maybe even move to Turkey perhaps? )

We are not taking anything from Turkey,but giving.

We are giving people work,not taking money,abiding by the rules,not building churches,not trying to take over their country,but to live among them in harmony.(KU. I hope thats means that they are fluent in the Turkish language? )


So this so called "British Patriot" has pissed off and left the country that she claims that she loves? And to cap it all she moves lock,stock and barrel to an Islamic country,one which the BNP and its allies are desperate to keep out of the EU.

Not to mention the potential election fraud that was carried out when she stood as an election candidate in Leeds in 2007. We will be speaking to Leeds City Council election offices later.

No doubt she will feel at home in Turkey.

The Grey Wolves are a very popular fascist organisation in Turkey (Responsible for the failed assassination attempt on Pope John Paul the 2nd in 1981) maybe they will drop her a line?

Oh and isn't St George Turkish as well?
