This week..

Submitted by Michael Clarke

I’ve had a busy time with the BNP this week. Here is a brief daily run down of my diary:

Monday: The formal announcement of my selection as the Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for Amber Valley, which resulted in a busy time on the phone receiving calls from well wishers. Thank you to everyone who took the trouble to call and to those who offered to help with the campaign.
Tuesday/Wednesday: Working on the agenda for Wed nights group meeting with Cllr Allsebrook.
Wednesday Evening: The Amber Valley Group meeting. A very successful meeting with a good turnout and financially rewarding for the group funds. Cllr Allsebrook laid out our strategy for the forthcoming elections with local individuals taking the first 10,000 leaflets for distribution.
** Note to Labour and Judy Mallaber: Be warned, we intend to deliver approx. 150,000 leaflets before the elections and whilst your petty, mean minded ‘mirror’ site continues, then the bulk of our leaflets will let the public know of your juvenile antics.

Friday was spent helping the Ashfield Group political stall in Hucknall in preparation for a forthcoming by election there. Two very interesting – and humbling – conversations with women who had come to this country from abroad. One, a very sprightly 83 year old Polish lady who told me of her wartime experience as a child ‘slave worker’ in Hitlers Germany, of the terrible working conditions, but also of the kindness of German civilians who – despite facing punishment themselves – managed to sneak a regular supply of sandwiches to her. Having not been allowed to return to her home country after the war she pleaded with me to keep Britain British. ‘Once your country is gone, its gone forever’
My second conversation of note was with a lady from South Africa who had fled to this country when her aunt, uncle and son had been horrifically murdered in the black on white racist violence that is sweeping the country. Murderous violence that receives virtually no recognition by the British media.
Having read Arthur Kemps excellent book ‘The AWB: Victory or violence’ I was able to converse reasonably well on the political scene in South Africa, which seemed to be appreciated. She warned that if the BNP don’t succeed in this country then she feared for the future.
Some of us moan about receiving threatening calls from Labour supporters, we feel aggrieved when the Tory controlled council defy the democratic process in the help given to our Councillors. Some of us even think delivering leaflets in the freezing cold and rain is pretty heroic. But when you speak to women who have been through and seen so much in their lives it is a very humbling experience. Our trials and tribulations are nothing and I for one came away on Friday afternoon even more determined to stop the traitorous LibLabCon destroying MY country.
Saturday was spent leafleting, delivering our message to yet more houses.
All in all a tiring week, but one that was totally positive and well worthwhile.

BNP Announce Candidate

Press Release

General Election Candidate – British National Party

Local activist Michael Clarke has been selected as our Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the forthcoming General Election.

Michael is 53 years old, married to wife Jane for 30 years and has 3 children and one grandchild. He has spent most of his working life as a Furniture Designer and Upholsterer, winning nine national awards for his sofa designs.

Michael says “I am delighted to have been given this opportunity to promote our common sense policies. I will be campaigning on the nation changing issues that the other parties fear to address. Mass Immigration, the European Union and the loss of our Christian heritage will be my priorities, along with the illegal war in Afghanistan, a better deal for our pensioners and crime.

We are now the third party in Amber Valley, having beaten the Lib Dems in both the Euro and County elections in June, and we are closing fast on the Tories and Labour. To win the seat will be a monumental task but if we work hard and keep to our strategy I genuinely believe it is possible.

Our last two MPs have been outsiders who have put Amber Valley second to their own political careers. Being born and bred in the heart of the constituency, Amber Valley means more to me than just a meal ticket and I will be fighting for the good of the area to my utmost ability.”

END

Please note: The local Labour Party have registered the domain ambervalleymatters.org.uk which takes you to their homepage. Please don’t be fooled by this desperate and juvenile attempt to divert visitors to our site and boost their own paltry viewing figures.

Marxist Madness

Submitted by Michael Clarke

Political Correctness has its roots in the ideology of Karl Marx and his followers. Political Correctness is merely a tool they use to silence debate whilst they carry out their softly, softly nation destroying agenda. They understand that Britain and British people will not accept their form of communism, putting family, religion and patriotism before the insidious agenda of the Marxists.
For the Marxists to achieve their aims they must first destroy the bonds of family and patriotism and make religion an irrelevance. They are succeeding, due in part to the success of Political Correctness.
Unfortunately for right thinking people PC has so scared the spineless Liberals (aka Conservatives, LibDems et al) that instead of fighting, they too have embraced it, and without any meaningful dissent PC has grown stronger over the years to where we are now beginning to witness the logical conclusion of the madness.

We are all aware that wearing a crucifix to work may well cost you your job, but wearing a Burka is ok. Many will be aware of Amber Valley Borough Councils Corporate Equality Plan, whereby they set targets for the number of ethnic minority employees – turn this around and can you ever imagine them setting a target for the number of white British employees? No, of course not, and once they have reached their target for ethnic minorities – to mirror the make up of the local population – will they then say No More Ethnics? – I think you know the answer.
If you dare to query the fairness or highlight the inequality of this ‘Equality’ policy then you will fall foul of PCs’ greatest success, you will be branded a ‘racist’. The reinvention of this word from its original hate and supremacy meaning, to where any discussion of racial issues (immigration, crime etc) has become taboo, is the foremost reason why Labour have managed to wreak so much damage in just twelve years.

So, I bring you two reports that highlight the PC disease that is running rampant through the Public Service industry and having an effect on private business too. Your first reaction might be to laugh at this Marxist madness but please don’t. This is deadly serious and another step forward to destroying our country.

Report 1: View here on Councillor Martyn Findlays blog

Report 2: Incredible but true, from the main BNP Website.

Can't advertise for reliable and hard working staff?
This is what the LibLabCon have brought us to. Only the British National Party have the cure for this disease.

Only ONE vote counts - VOTE BNP

£17m for Public Toilets in Vietnam VS Amber Valley Businesses providing Public loos at home!

Report By CLLR Lewis Allsebrook

DSCF0522The Labour Government’s foreign aid budget has just announced a £17 million grant to Vietnam to build toilets in that country.  Whilst at home tight budgets in Amber Valley mean Public Toilets may need to be provided by local businesses.

Last night I attended the Cabinet meeting where the Tories decided to go ahead with their scheme to phase out council run public toilets in favour of directing people to businesses who will be allowing people in to use their toilets instead.  The businesses will be paid £600 a year to open their loos to the public.  This is a last ditch attempt by cash-strapped Amber Valley Borough Council to provide toilets free to the public because sadly the cost of repairing smashed up and vandalised public toilets has got too high.

Although I can see the reasoning behind the Tories move on Public Toilets and think this is an option that should be tried I do have some reservations.  So I don’t think we should phase out the existing public toilet infrastructure too quickly in case the scheme doesn’t work and we need to go back to them.  Although I hope the scheme works I said this at last nights meeting;-

 “…I was in Melton Mowbray recently and used the public toilets whilst I was there, they were probably the best public toilets I’ve ever been into.  You go through a turnstile and pay 20p.  The toilets are attended, they were well heated, clean and tidy, with no signs of vandalism.  The attendant kept an eye on the kids and logged the times they were coming in, he was very friendly. They also had a heavy duty night toilet.”  I went on to say “..with businesses opening and closing in Heanor like a yo-yo it is my fear that at times we may end up with no toilets the public can use at all”. 

I also said the scheme is not one that I think can work everywhere in Amber Valley and in some places we will need to keep our existing toilets.  However sadly because some people ruin everything for everyone else I think the council may need to take a serious look a bringing in attended Public Toilets like the ones in Melton Mowbray, which of course is only possible by introducing a small charge.  So the next time you see some idiot disrespecting a public toilet, do something about it, the toilets are paid for with your money after all!

At the same time the Department for International Development’s website proudly announced that the “UK will help improve the lives of thousands of people in Vietnam by providing basic toilets and hygiene facilities.”  Making the announcement, International Development Minister Mike Foster said the DFID “will participate in a Vietnamese government-led programme to tackle a chronic shortage of latrines in the country through a £17 million grant. The money will also help spread good hygiene practices such as regular hand washing with soap.”

While no-one in their right mind would not want to help people in need, the first priority should be at home. Until we can afford to provide basic clean, safe to use public toilets at home we shouldn’t spend any money providing that abroad. Both the Conservative and Labour parties have committed to increasing the foreign aid spend from its current £8 billion per year to £13 billion.

Only the British National Party is committed to halting all foreign aid until basic standards are met in our own country and poverty it wiped out here.  Then and only then will we look at sending funds abroad!

Empty Tory/Labour seats as Mercians are granted Freedom of the Borough.


Submitted by Michael Clarke

ALL BNP Councillors were prensent for Amber Valleys most important civic ceremony in years. Last nights ceremony was to bestow the 'Freedom of the Borough' on the Mercian Regiment. The Freedom will allow the Mercians to march with 'drums beating, flags flying and BAYONETS FIXED,' the council has also given the regiment free use of all Amber Valleys Leisure centres. Everyone in Amber Valley should get out to show support for our local lads when the Mercians march through Ripley on March 15th. This event is certainly one everyone will enjoy and one not to be missed.


Even though this Freedom was passed unanimously some Tory and Labour represntatives didn't have the respect to show up! Local MP Judy Mallaber, almost a third of Labour councillors and several Conservative councillors couldn't be bothered to turn up to what should have been a packed Council Chamber so it was disappointing to see so many empty seats.


Where was Mallaber? Out of the area? Now theres a surprise, or maybe she was on yet another all expenses paid African trip?


As for the absent councillors, I will name and shame them shortly as soon as I get the full list. But notable absentees were Langley Mill and Aldercars Stephanie Jo Ward (Labour), Riddings Paul Smith (Labour) and Horsley Woodhouses Kevin Parkinson (Conservative)
What sort of state would we be in if the brave soldiers in the Mercians adopted the same 'can't be bothered attitude'? These guys have carried out three tours of Afghanistan in this Politicians War, and will be going again later this year. To turn up for one evening to show support and respect isn't asking too much of our local politicians is it?

21st Century Schizoid Men or Headless Chickens?


Submitted by Michael Clarke
As the corrupt LibLabCon and the Establishment careerists try desperately to hold on to power and following on from yesterdays expose of the lying Labour Leader it is worth summarising the recent attacks on the BNP by Labour, Conservatives and Amber Valley Borough Council Officers combined.
WE KNOW there is growing support for our commonsense policies, and so do THEY. That is why they are in a panic and appear to be running around like headless chickens making accusations that are so easily refutable they are laughable.

With local council and General elections around the corner these attacks will undoubtably increase, but with the success of this blog and our leafleting teams, their actions WILL be challenged. And guess who will end up with egg on their faces?
(chickens, eggs? Lets have less ‘fowl’ comments please – ed)

Going back a few months we have the infamous Pink Paper council agenda item, where Chief Exec Peter Carney used obscure powers to force the BNP councillors to declare a prejudicial interest and refused their right to view the documentation so as to make their own judgement. Carney scored a pyrrhic victory here, as his reputation for acting impartially was destroyed. We in the BNP had suspected that certain council officers were denying BNP councillors the same help and co-operation as others, Carneys action proved that the malaise went right to the top.
Unfortunately for Carney, the Pink Paper was leaked to us, only reinforcing the opinion that his actions were unnecessary and unjustifiable. Unless of course he didn’t want us to see paragraph 7.1.8 ‘The BNP is a legal and lawful political body. It possesses a number of members and a greater number of electors who vote for it who express views that perhaps the majority of people would find distasteful if not downright repugnant or anti democratic’
Quite a statement for the Chief Executive to allow from of his office. The same statement could be relevant to both Tories and Labour, yet would he have allowed that? No, of course not.
As an aside to this, the Labour website declared, pre-Christmas, that their ‘super-sleuth’ had found the culprits who leaked the Pink Paper and were going to expose them. Well, its nearly the end of January and we’re still waiting. Perhaps it was just another Labour Lie.

Tory leader Stuart Bradford issued a press release accusing the BNP councillors of only contributing to meetings with pre-prepared statements. Shock horror! BNP councillors DO attend meetings AND come prepared AND do make contributions! What Bradford failed to disclose on his press release was that TORY councillors have almost as poor an attendance record as LABOUR councillors,  that TORY councillors are often caught out unprepared and the MAJORITY OF TORY councillors NEVER contribute ANYTHING at meetings.

The LABOUR GROUP accused Cllr Lewis Allsebrook of ‘forgetting’ to attend a planning meeting. What they conveniently omitted was that this was a LIE. The planning meeting in question coincided with a Parish Council meeting, at which Lewis is also a councillor. Having not yet mastered the art of being in two places at the same time, Cllr Allsebrook decided to make written representations to the planning and attend the Parish meeting in person. Labour also conveniently chose not to highlight the fact that their councillors IN TOTAL have only averaged a poor 84% attendance record for council meetings in the last two years with some councillors only bothering to turn up LESS THAN HALF the time (Cllrs Cato – Heanor East and Cllr Ward – Langley Mill being the worst culprits)

The Council spent weeks trying to find corporate sponsors for the flowerbeds on Tesco island at Heanor. Cllr Allsebrook highlighted the campaign on this blog and within two days sponsors were found. Cllr Allsebrook issued a statement, effectively saying that he was delighted sponsors had been found and that IF his intervention had helped, then he was more than happy. Note the word IF.
That was not good enough for the Council who promptly issued a press release ordering people not to visit this site as it was ‘misleading’. Perhaps Carney can spin some legal jargon that declares the word IF is irrelevant and should be discounted. He is after all a solicitor, as every AVBC letterhead tells us so.

The Labour leader Paul Jones accuses BNP leader Cllr Allsebrook of lying – see previous post. Again a pathetic fabrication.

And finally, the Council hopelessly changes the rules on use of Council Property to try and thwart the BNP papersales in Heanor. YOU CANT STAND ON HEANOR MARKET AND SELL YOUR PAPERS, they triumphantly declare!
Oh hum…. Then we will just have to move twenty yards or so and stand in front of the Town Hall, where you can’t do a damn thing about it.

You can just imagine the Tory/Labour/Officer cabal having meetings, on taxpayers expense of course, just to dream up ways of attacking the BNP. You can imagine the backslapping and handshakes amongst those infected with the malignant Politically Correct disease as each new plan is approved. You can visualise the happy smiling faces as they declare ‘We’ve got ‘em this time!
But to those of us who inhabit planet Earth it is seen as victimisation and contempt for the electorate who asked to be represented by the BNP. What they don’t appreciate is that we in the BNP are BRITISH (there is a clue in the title, dummy) and the harder they push us, the more determined we become.
