The sickening stunt was staged at the British National Party's annual FAMILY festival last weekend - yet the BNP insists it is NOT racist as part of its successful ploy to attract votes in elections. Around 1,200 members converged on fields at Codnor, Derbys, for the Red White and Blue "fun" weekend. Our undercover reporter, posing as a supporter to gain entry to the members-only event, secretly filmed racism everywhere.
For £1 a go, people were throwing wet sponges at a man in a Barack Obama mask locked in stocks. Elsewhere stalls were selling T-shirts with slogans like It's A White Thing and books such as Race, Evolution and Behavior - which insists whites give birth to larger-brained babies and blacks are prone to crime. Supporters gave Nazi-style salutes and shouted Sieg Heil...

stupid comment on News of The World website

"If this practice is illegal, ie burning a childs toy which is supposed to represent a black person then surely having a large bonfire with the whole village invited and burning an effigy of the Pope must also be illegal but this religious intollerent activity goes on year after year."
Errrrrm, I think it's an effigy of Guy Fawkes, dumbass.
But maybe us anarchists should complain it incites hatred against people who try to blow up politicians!

After 700 years of burning effigies of Popes it is instructional that none of the firestarters ever bothered to visit the Vatican. (Hip rebels, safe rebels...)
A 12 year old child is an innocent regardless of their views, indoctrination or affiliation and so they should not be highlighted in the media. They are a victim of their sick parents and should be rescued liked you'd rescue a beaten dog.

Why does Barnbrook acknowledge it on his blog.
Why are the BNP looking at disciplinary action against the 2 candidates?
Either you're a lying faascist twat or a lazy fascist twat who wasn't doing his job properly! If thyer latter then perhaps the BNP top fascists should investigate you and why there were campfires blazing merrily away fueled with toy gollywogs and where were you when you should have been doing your job properly and putting the fire out?

BNP forced to distance party from this....

So, yes it did take place; and this whole episode is a very revealing insight into how the BNP desperately guards its new "respectable" image. The racist, fascist nature of the party and its members is never far beneath...

To paraphrase the German philosopher, Heinrich Heine, "Where one burns golliwogs, one will soon burn people."
This is where it leads; this is how it starts.
