BNP not wanted back in Blackpool!

SeaSider | 14.10.2008 16:24 | Anti-racism | Liverpool

The BNP may be coming back to the grotty hotel in Blackpool where they have had their autumn conference for the last few years. We don't want them back! Ring 01253 341184 and tell them so.

Please ring the "New Kimberley" (585-589 New South Promenade, Blackpool FY4 1NQ)
on 01253 341184, and ask the management - Pete & Susie Metcalfe - not to accept the BNP's booking this year. We must campaign against all businesses who support the BNP; if you take money off fascists, you will be targetted by anti-fascists. Simple as that!

What's your problem with someone renting rooms to people for a party conference? If you don't want anything to do with the BNP conference why not do what 99.99% of other people will do while it's on - simply stay at home and not attend it? What business is it of yours what arrangements people make for their accommodation while going about their lawful business?


Stop being so childish.

Pete


@ Pete

It really shouldn't need saying, but for the hard-of-understanding like yourself - there's nothing childish about not wanting violent racist scum like the BNP meeting in your town.

You seem rather naive, or maybe a BNP member yourself?

Fascist scum arent wanted in blackpool or anywhere else for that matter

14.10.2008 19:24

The british Nutter party and anyone helping them to put on a fascist conference in this town or any other town should expect a lot of antifascist action!

Some guy


Very nice for you, Pete

I take it you're white, then, so not at risk from these violent racists -as long as you don't stand up to them, that is. You'll probably not be Jewish, transexual, Roma, an Irish traveller or fleeing from persecution in some other part of the world either.

"First they came for the communists, but I was not a communist, then they came for the Jews, but I was not a Jew..etc. etc."

No Pete, its' you who needs to grow up and act responsibly instead of pulling the blankets over your head as if you can blithely ignore a danger just because it doesn't immediately threaten you. Well, not yet anyway.

That's how the BNP's predecessors got control of the German state apparatus before people like you had woken up.

Actually it sounds like quite a good place for these bastards to meet

"The Blackpool hotel used by the far right British National Party for its annual conferences was branded a hazard to humans by health chiefs.

Officers investigated after guests complained about diarrhoea and vomiting while staying at The New Kimberley Hotel, Blackpool. They were also told of guests being given uncooked food and meat which smelt bad. Officials found the kitchen of the 50-bedroom hotel on South Promenade was filthy and discovered food which was out-of-date and in danger of cross-contamination from bacteria.

Peter Metcalf, 45, of Wyredale Road, St Annes, the hotel's former-leaseholder, admitted nine offences of breaching food hygiene safety rules and was found guilty of 11 similar offences after a trial. He was fined £1,000 with £500 costs and ordered to pay the £15 victims' surcharge by Blackpool magistrates.

Victoria Cartmell, prosecuting for Blackpool Council, said there were complaints in 2006 about the hotel.

Health officers first visited the hotel in July 2006 and Metcalf was given numerous chances to clean the kitchen. Officers again visited on August 14 last year and found the kitchen was filthy. Ceilings, walls, sockets, surfaces, pipes, floors, a cooker, fryer and freezer were greasy and dirty and food debris was scattered around. Black mould was on chopping boards, freezer seals and an ice-making machine. A wash basin was dirty and there were no paper towels.

Ms Cartmell said: "Double cream in the fridge was past its use-by date. Containers of ice-cream were stored next to boxes of raw bacon which could have caused cross-contamination of bacteria."

Mitch Sarangi, defending, said at the time Metcalf's mother-in-law had been diagnosed with a terminal illness. He and his wife travelled to and from Scotland to visit her before she was transferred to a hospice and died. Metcalf had now been declared bankrupt and he no longer held the hotel's lease.

The hotel hit the headlines in November 2006 and 2007 when it twice held the BNP's annual conference."

Mmmmmmm lovely botulism. Eat up, Nazi scum! The thought of those arsewipes simultaneously puking and shitting through the eye of a needle is more than a little amusing :)

Couldn't make it up, could you?

Thank you for this insight into the hygiene regime at the BNP's judicious choice of hotel. Priceless!

The next time I find myself shouting across several rows of cops in a manner which may cause the nazis "harassment alarm or distress", I will make sure my words reflect the lurid specifics recited above. You never know, the plea that it was merely a health and safety warning might get me off.

Come to think of it, if anyone could bring along some of the aforementioned lurid specifics in a thin plastic bag that would be even better.

You Couldn't Make It Up

The BNP chooses to hold its nazi shitfest in what sounds like the filthiest hovel this side of Hotel Paradiso, the ironty is not lost on myself nor anyone who has been in contact with these wankers, vermin living in filth, no suprises there then, no suprises at all.

Of course you have to ask how this reflects on the BNP and how they view their supporters.

If you won't do the right and sensible thing and ditch the BNP over their offensive, class prejudiced, racist, homophobic ideology then perhaps you should think of ditching them due to the fact that they are quite happy to rent the shittiest hotel they could find regardless of your health and safety.
