A PENYGROES-based BNP councillor has hit back after a strong attack by Neath MP Peter Hain.
Llandybie community councillor Kevin Edwards was among BNP members who distributed leaflets in Mr Hain’s constituency calling for him to be sacked.
Mr Hain afterwards voiced his anger and concern.
“The BNP are a force that has to be confronted and defeated whenever they appear from beneath the stones,” he said.
In a letter to Mr Hain, Cllr Edwards replied: “Mr Hain, we do not hide beneath stones.
“We are a very active political party, we are open and transparent.
“We are active and speaking to ordinary people on a daily basis throughout the UK.”
