Can you believe these people?

Which is worse: the numberplate or the councillor's pretence that it ended up on his car by coincidence?

Fairness not fear

Putney BNP members outed

The entire national membership list of the fascist, racist British National Party has been posted on the web.

I managed to get a look before the website was taken down, and found that the BNP has a grand total of eleven members in Putney - not exactly a mass membership party!

But you'd be surprised where some of them live - mainly in more affluent parts of the constituency like the Southfields Grid, a street off Lower Richmond Road, the Lytton Grove area and leafy West Putney.

These are usually regarded as affluent, Conservative-voting areas, somewhat removed from the stereotyped BNP member as working class, living on a council estate and poor. But wherever they live, BNP members are just pathetic, usually poorly educated people who can't handle the modern world and who are too cowardly to do anything other than blame "outsiders" for that.

London's elections & the BNP

A low turnout in May's elections could result in the BNP winning a seat on the London Assembly. The more of us who turn out and vote, the harder it becomes for the BNP to slime their way onto a capital-wide stage.

In case you didn't read it in Tuesday's Evening Standard, this is what the person who the BNP felt so well represented them that they placed him second on their list of candidates thinks about rape:

"Rape is simply sex. Women enjoy sex, so rape cannot be such a terrible physical ordeal. To suggest that rape, when conducted without violence, is a serious crime is like suggesting that force feeding a woman chocolate cake is a heinous offence. A woman would be more inconvenienced by having her handbag snatched."

Since his comments became public the candidate has been dropped by the BNP. But ask yourself whether he's been sacked because of the views he holds, or because those views have been unearthed?

I hope you will vote for Ken, Leonie Cooper and Labour in May's elections. But if you do not want the BNP and their abhorrent opinions elected to represent YOU in London, whoever you support make sure you vote on 1st May.
