Ive been handing out local independent Nottm stop the BNP leafelts independently of Searchlight, though I work with them as I know many organisations can be infiltrated in a negative way by corporate & state forces, including anarchist organisations like London Greenpeace etc.
On way home last night after a lot of leafleting & doing some work at a factory afew miles from where I live I was attacked by 2 large racist young idiots, despite being drunk I just managed to beat them off & told them to get lost. Slightly worrying thing is this happened in quite a radical area, not good.
They probably started muttering their twiddle as I had a english baseball cap on & presumed I was likely to share their views, which is BS. Iam proud to wear the union jack occasionally& the english flag as last time they went into major battle was D day which the 60th annversary of comes up soon.
As well as that Iam proud to be a syndicalist as I know comrades where the ones who led the charge that beat fascism from the 1930's with spaniards & austro germans like my grandad who fought on the side of real democracy, not the corporate sham that we often get.
Please use your vote so some of twisted corporations like Halliburton & afew others cant engineer more global wars, thanks.
Their is plenty of room on this Island in Highlands,devon & cornwall,etc vast areas, we just need to build more sustainably. Simon Fairlie the horticultural scientist& land rights activist has even done the stats, even on this island we can support ourselves organically with abit of free range, hunter gather meat occasionally no problem.
""Martin Wingfield, another former NF member who edits the BNP newsletter and is standing as a European candidate in West Midlands, wrote on his blog last week: "If we get an MEP elected, our campaign has been a success. If we don't, it's a failure." ""

Spoiling ballot pointless...

A spoiled ballot is pointless if your aim really is to stop the BNP. It will have no effect on them whatsoever, when a vote for a party that might make it into the top five will (say, the Greens). Whoever keeps suggesting it will help has no grasp of the system of proportional representation being used.
Of course, if you want to spoil your ballot - fine. If you think it will express your displeasure at democracy in general - fine. But don't kid yourself it's of any use against the BNP. Spreading that kind of nonsense will only make it even easier for the BNP to get a seat.
