Massive BNP losses in Nottingham

Antifascist | 24.10.2009 18:02 | Anti-racism

The annual BNP membership leak gives an opportunity to take a look at the state of the party's growth in the local area. Since the 2007 list was published they have lost a massive 70 out of the 165 members they had in Nottingham (42%). Even when new members are taken into account, they now only have 77% of the numbers they had in 2007. Far from growing, the BNP is shrinking into the extreme political margins in this city.

By counting Nottingham as postcodes NG1-NG11, the BNP had 165 members in the city in 2007. 70 of these had not renewed their memberships by early 2009 - over 40% of the 2007 membership in the area! The BNP is leaking like a sieve and the rats are jumping ship.

32 new recruits were made in the same period of time, but that still only takes them up to 127 members, only 77% of the 2007 membership. How long will these newbies last knowing that their personal data is regularly going to be leaked into the public domain?

The BNP is a waning force in Nottingham. Concerted antifascist action can take them from the margins into total irrelevance.

Are you sure they are not leaving to join something much nastier with much higher standards of security?

Has anyone done a proper genealogy on Griffin? Is there any British blood in him or is he entirely composed of Huguenot, Norman, Saxon, Angle, Viking and Roman?

If so where should he go?

I live in kimberley and opposed them when the one eyed monster griffin came here to speak. This area broxtowe was one of their strongest in the country so they said, wheras now its all but dissapeared.
local gossip says its a split within the fascists themselves if anyone can add anything to this please do as the final nail need knocking into the coffin while theres still time.
yours hopefully ian

Don't knock us normans. as we weren't invited in the first pace we possibly have less moral right to be here than more recent arrivals who were either invited or perhaps snuck in only wanting to live/work here.
my ancestors (since we invaded) have managed to get on so well with our neighbours that we decided to join into the notion of being british. now along comes nick griifin and, the way i see it, tells us that unless your a direct decendent of piltdown man, your just not fit to be in the 'british' club.
so the moral of this story is... dont piss off the normans. remember what happened to (ex) king harold.

if nottingham bnp/broxtowe has been destroyed we should use the same methods to do the other local groups,,,,,,,,,,,, amber valley, erewash, ashfield ,derby etc....... lets not fall out amongst ourselves lets fight the fash and move forward.we could destroy them all with a little effort what we have done in broxtowe is just the tip of the iceberg..
