BNP hires security to protect billboard

Aberdeen BNP were forced to hire security firm to protect their trophy billboard in Aberdeen following persistent attacks.



The BNP has been forced to hire a 'security firm' in Aberdeen to protect their first ever billboard in Scotland following sustained attacks. Having already being replaced once, the BNP decided to instate round the clock protection on the poster.

However, this security transpired to be nothing more than two beefy BNP members who were soon arrested for assault during a violent attempt at a citizens arrest. They also racially intimidated the victims. During the same incident two anti fascists were also arrested.

In a discussion on the fascist 'green arrow' blog the BNP confirmed this version of events: 'the two security men were then arrested for assault and racial comments, and taken into police custody,, finger printed, dna sampled, and formerly charged'.

One of these men was the local BNP organiser Barrry Scott. (pictured below).

Following this incident the attacks on the billboard appeared to increase, leaving it almost completely destroyed.

A subsequent arrest was made last Friday after a man set the poster on fire. He was charged but let off with a caution at Aberdeen Sherif court yetsterday.

Unfortunately this local newspaper printed this man's address, leading to threats and intimidation.

Security.

The securty is not actual security from a firm, it is BNP members composed of ex-prsion guards, ex-military and ex-cops being paid by an "anonymous local business owner."

they are sat in a metallic blue ford focus opposite the billboard in th car park of the Northern Hotel.
Don't think they will be anymore considering they are up on assault charges.

What a sad lot

I fought for this country and the way your readers comment is so sad. Democracy must be defended at all costs because to attack it is the work of fascists, and the lies being spoken here is disturbing.
I bet the man rightly charged with fire-raising, has received no threats, because where I am standing it seems to be the University thugs who masquerade as intellectuals, that are the ones carrying out criminal acts and threatening people.
Some day you will no doubt grow up and reflect on who it was that sacrificed so much for you to enjoy the freedom you have today. Probably the same ex military men who are guarding that poster and with it the democratic process.
Churchill was correct when he stated the real fascists will return as anti fascists. And so it plays out.

I doubt it, & if you did I bet the rest of your platoon had to babysit you, stop you embarrassing the uniform & or deliberately raping-torturing-killing youngsters or babies.
Dont emberrass yourself, go to the toilet where your thoughts belong please& shut the door,
then go to your doctor & get proper therapy please,
your a liability+threat to yourself & fellow human beings & a disgrace to the Britain.

Was the accomplice of the poster wearing a black suit, bowler hat, smoking a cigar
& doing the V sign, by any chance?

to be honest.

To be honest I almost feel bad for the above guy losing a good chunk of his life to the army for nothing beyond imperialist statist nonsense. I can understand how you feel fucked over by this counry but resorting to racist politics as the solution is ignorant at best. Your country fucking you over has nothing to do with immigration, it's to do with the fact they don't give a fuck about us.

At the end of the day we are all just niggers to the rulers of this land.

"Churchill was correct when he stated the real fascists will return as anti fascists. And so it plays out"
