Double Standards From The BNP

Antifascist | 23.11.2008 22:52 | Anti-racism | Liverpool

Whenever anti fascists are being beaten and arrested by the fascist police, the BNP cheer them on, for once, they're at the receiving end of the coppers cuffs so apparently they're hardline Communists. So which is it Nick? Commies or heros?

When anti fascists attempted to stop the BNP's scumfest in Denby back in August, the BNP were more than happy to have the wrath of the British police protecting their little Nazi get together. The minute the cuffs are on the other wrists the police are 'Communist Thought Police'.

This is the reaction of the BNP to 12 of their members being arrested under the public order act for handing out racist leaflets in the Whitechappel area of Liverpool. One local fascist, Roy Goodwin of 43 Sunnyhurst Park, Blackpool, Lancashire, FY4 2HR tel. 01253 405519, 07801 081427, e-mail northwest[at]bnp.org[dot]uk said

"There was nothing unlawful in the leaflets - all the contents of the leaflets had been carefully vetted, or they would not have gone out."

In otherwords, they weren't as racist as they wanted.

We've always known the police are fascists, you only have to look as far as Steve Bettley the disgraced copper who only this week has been outed as a BNP member, whose name and address also appears on the list.

All Coppers Are Bastards And All Fascists Are Scum.

We need a more self policing rational direct democracy yes, the police often get in the way of that yes. Not all of them are bastards though, there are varying degrees, various factions, forces & groups within the police force. Most active aNot A.C.A.B., anarchy is self policing, wectivists& anarchists know this & respect the fact. I dont blame or hate all coppers for the whacks on the head or false arrests Ive had, there arent just niave nice people who join. There are also good people who join to help people through the system or to help their local area & actively work to stop government policy thats repressive. Most longterm gangs,"criminals",activists have their contacts & sympathisers in the police including antifascists & libertarians. Some rare examples Ive seen include instances of known police troublemakers-provacetuers being singled out at demo's to activists & beat officers on the ground. Police do a job that makes them more "guilty" than most in a capitalist society, but capitalism almost 99% of us "guilty", you could falsely incorrectly all us gringo westerners are bastards.AWAB

Whilst the BNP bang on about cases of "muslim" gangs abusing young girls they're on members are doing precisely that! Look at the story of the two BNP Paedos - makes you sick.

To all members of the BNP - you are a sick joke and the rest of the working class - white or not - won't touch you with a barge poll!

Save the rantings

Save your rantings, the BNP is right, you can support Bin Laden and join the British Police but you can not support the BNP and do the same.

Double standards? Yes

Jim's talking shite

So I can name several fascists that are or were in the police. How many Bin Laden supporters can you name in the police?

None ? Then you are talking shite. The fact is Al Qaeda is a proscribed organistaion and no Briton can legally offer them support. However in the UK only police and occasionally prison officers are banned from being Nazis, and that is due to a long history of legally-protected racial abuse.
