War of words over BNP’s new recruit


A LLANDYBIE community councillor has become the second member of the authority to join the extreme right-wing British National Party.

Meirion Bowen, a former Plaid Cymru county council candidate who in recent years has been standing as an Independent, claims local people are “disillusioned” by the mainstream parties.

And he revealed he is also considering standing against Carmarthen East and Dinefwr MP Adam Price in the next general election, which must take place sometime in the next 14 months.

The shock move follows the announcement that Llandybie councillor Kevin Edwards, who represents Penygroes, will be standing for the BNP in the European elections on June 4.

Cllr Bowen told the Guardian he had been thinking of joining the BNP for some time.

“I walked away from Plaid because I was being dictated to by party politics,” he said.

“People feel let down by Plaid and Labour and the BNP is prepared to address certain issues other parties aren’t.

“Labour and Plaid have lost their way while the BNP has more in common with the man in the street.”

But his decision has been condemned by Mr Price.

“I think it is sad that anyone would join a party with fascist principles,” he said. “The people of Ammanford were among the first to respond to the threat of fascism during the Spanish Civil War.

“We are certain the message of hatred that is at the heart of the BNP will receive little support today either.”Llandybie-based Labour county councillor Anthony Jones said: “Mr Bowen’s efforts to attract publicity come as no surprise.

“Dig deeper into the BNP’s policies and they’re actually quite frightening.”

And fellow Labour councillor Peter Cooper commented: “I don’t think Mr Bowen is the type of person voters will take seriously.”

Well done Councillor Meirion Bowen. I and most of the local people I speak with fully intend on voting BNP and others should look beyond the lies and smears on this patriotic party and make their own minds up rather than listen to the like of Plaid and Labour who are only interested in their huge salaries. Visit www.bnp.org.uk and see the truth for yourselves

This is exactly the cheap name calling that I expected from these politicians.
Firstly, Councillor Jones, I always work transparently, in the open and not behind closed doors.
As for Adam Price MP., I would have expected a more mature and poitical response rather than the usual nonsense in an attempt to brand the BNP something that they are not.
As for Councillor Cooper's further cheap comment, this is water off a duck's back.
I suggest that all three instead of criticising myself and my new party start talking to the people that they were elected to represent in order to get a true picture of how unpopular Labour and Plaid really are.

It may surprise some people that the BNP have members of polish,Italian, hungarian decent, gay, disabled, jewish, and many members have foreign wives/husbands etc.
The BNP have Jewish councillors, a Jewish treasurer.
BNP also have Members of the Armed forces, ex WW2 veterans, ex spitfire pilots, pensioners.
Unemployed, Self employed and professional people !


Adam Walker BNP teacher has a Japanese wife, Richard Barnbrook (BNP GLA member) his partner Simone Clarke (BNP member)are bringing up Simones mixed race young child.

Regarding the usual ‘racist’ accusations – the most seriously injured BNP activist (attacked with a claw hammer by anti-BNP loonatics) turns out to have a Chinese wife; one of the two BNP officers in Wigan turns out to have been married 24 years to an Asian woman, and has a mixed race child (well, she’s 20 now).

Democracy=the will of the people, the opposite is dictatorship.


Soon the Media will HAVE to report the BNP in a fair and honest manner, because the people are waking up!

JUST REMEMBER.
It was not the BNP that started the illegal wars that are getting our soldiers slaughtered. I WOULD CALL THAT EXTREME!


It was not the BNP that stole the pension funds of millions of our elderly.
I WOULD CALL THAT EXTREME!


It was not the BNP that sold of our Utility Companies to overseas buyers who now exploit us. I WOULD CALL THAT EXTREME


It was not the BNP that betrayed the True British People by swamping Our Country with mass unfettered immigration. I WOULD CALL THAT EXTREME


It was not the BNP that sold our gold for peanuts to Europe.
I WOULD CALL THAT CRIMINAL !
It was not the BNP that gave away our fishing fleets, industry, farming.
I WOULD CALL THAT TREASON !
It was not the BNP that allowed the banker to rip us off for billions.
I WOULD CALL THAT THEFT!


It was not the BNP that destroyed our education, NHS, Law AND Order etc
I WOULD CALL THAT CRIMINAL!
It was not the BNP that destroyed our manufacturing base.
I WOULD CALL THAT TREASON!

It was not, not, not the BNP that created the mess we are now in !

On 6 July 2006, I attended the Stand Your Ground meeting at the Rugby Club in Carmarthen where Mr Adam Price MP was in attendance. The meeting was packed and Mr Price heard first hand of the problems that his constituents were experiencing with regards to the corruption in the Dyfed Powys Police Force, where the police were refusing to investigate fraud and other serious crimes against his constituents.

Many at this meeting complained about the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) failing to investigate the wayward Police, and felt that the IPCC was not independent and had lost all faith in it.

Mr Price also heard first hand of the corruption in the legal profession and the conspiratorial, “Memorandum of Understanding between the Association of Chief Police Officers of England and Wales and the Law Society” – Any normal twelve year old would have the common sense to know that this arrangement is not compatible with natural justice.

Mr Price could not but notice the amount of people who complained about the judicial systems that it had failed them and in some cases destroyed them. It was pointed out to Mr Price that the UK Courts were not Courts of Law, as they were NOT independent and impartial tribunal established by law, which is a requirement under Article 6 (1) of the Council of Europe Convention. Therefore, Mr Price was made aware that the courts in the UK are bureaucratic Kangaroo courts with no jurisdiction to try a freeman without his written consent.

A court of law is: TRIAL by JURY, when twelve freemen are sworn in as jurors as they ask, "So help me God" so that they can administer justice.

Magna Carta reads: “No free man shall be taken indeed imprisoned, either dispossessed, or outlawed, or exiled, or in any manner destroyed, nor pass over him, nor send over him, except by means of the legal judgment of his own equals (Trial by Jury) indeed the law of the land. To no one will we sell, to no one will we deny or delay Right or Justice.”

On 6 July 2006, I was framed-up twice in seventeen hours by the Dyfed Powys Police and the South Wales Police, which is a measure of the corruption in Wales. Now I understand the serious problems that the people were complaining about to their MP, Mr Price.

I strongly suggest that Mr Price, dig deeper on behalf of his constituents, and see how actually frightening it is for them to live in a justiceless, remediless country - with no light at the end of the tunnel.

Hopefully Mr Price will come to understand why the likes of Kevin Edwards and Meirion Bowen joined the BNP as a last resort.

Following my being defrauded by a con man who gained his home at no expense to himself, but at the cost to myself of losing my own home and property, I turned to the legal system for justice. Apart from one lawyer who tried to help, but was unable to, I encountered nothing but corruption within the self serving and incestuous legal and judicial system.I became aware that, for whatever reason, when the interests of justice conflict with the interests of lawyers, then injustice is inevitable.
The injustice happened 23 years ago during which time I have sought help and a remedy from the West Yorkshire Police and MPs from all the
main political parties to no avail.
Years ago. I voted for labour on Tony Blairs promise that he would bring justice to the people.
I will never ever again vote for any of the mainstream parties. Should any party come along promising justice against the tyrants who rule our courts, and be seen to be delivering this justice, then I will vote for them.
In government and legal system, all we have is the biggest bunch of backscratching -snouts in the trough-
rogues imaginable.

“...the BNP has more in common with the man in the street.”??
As long as the man in the street is White, Christian and British? Sounds a bit like Blonde Hair, Blue Eyes and 6ft Tall.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...please have the decency to call this what it is - FACISM.

War of Words.
‘Here we go gathering nuts in May...’
The words of the ancient song came to mind as I read the ‘comments’.
Number One (on the list) thinks that the criminal conviction of the Great Leader of the BNP is a ‘lie and a smear’ does he?
Number Two can’t even spell ‘political’. So not a lot of hope there when seeking accuracy from a politician.
Number Three opines: ‘It may surprise some people that the BNP have members...’ who are ‘...decent’. Just so.
Number Four wants Adam Price MP to answer a comment attributed to County Councillor Anthony Jones- so whatever answer may be given will probably forever remain a mystery to Number Four.
Number Five graces us with his presence all the way from Harrow, whence, one hopes, he returned safely without attracting the further attention of his old sparring partners in the Dyfed Powys Police. We are told he was ‘framed-up’. Not the more modern thieves’ parlance of ‘fitted up’ then. But Number Five has an intimate knowledge of the Magna Carta, so maybe his term stems from there.
Then, for our Grand Finale, we have Number Six who has had twenty-three years to fester about a perceived injustice in Yorkshire, dating two thirds of the way back to when it was transformed into East and West. He drags his 'beef' south west for our local fascinated attention. Thank you Number Six.
Oh yes, free speech is a great and wonderful thing. It can often provide so much harmless entertainment don’t you think?

“ImpertInent” – by name and Impertinent by nature: -

Is this nameless individual a COP or a LUNATIC?

How could any normal thinking person ever think that, corruption in the ‘Independent’ Police Complaints Commission (IPCC), corruption in the legal profession, corruption in the judiciary, and our Members of Parliament aiding and abetting this endemic corruption: - is “entertainment”? It is evident that this individuals thinking is very sick indeed.

Just ask yourselves, where this NAMELESS individual got the intimate knowledge to make the following (give away) statement, “without attracting the further attention of HIS OLD SPARRING PARTNERS in the Dyfed Powys Police” ???

As an Irishman, with no axe to grind, I remind the British People at the European Elections on June 4 that, it was NOT the BMP that framed me up and robbed me of my (Four bedroomed) home and possessions in London NW9. On 30 March 1999, I was put onto the street by seventeen (17) Police Officers and High Court Sheriffs, while my Labour MP, Barry Gardiner was in the full knowledge that the Inland Revenue were in collusion with High Court Judges to framed me up, and dispossessed me of my property on Summary Conviction, which was illegal and criminal.

Moreover, it is NOT the BMP who has denied me compensation and justice since 30 March 1999. Therefore, don’t be brainwashed into wasting your vote on 4th June 2009. As seen at the G20 Summit protests in London, the Labour Party have militarised the Police to unlawfully detain and attack the People who are exercising their rights in law and looking for justice, like I was, having being dispossessed of my property and totally destroyed in bureaucratic Kangaroo Courts, where, irrespective of the evidence, you cannot win: -

Please Google: - “Evidence put to the high court shows that Cullinane, far from owing tax, was due a rebate” – By Phillip Inman of The Guardian

Please Google: “This man was right all along” - By Phillip Inman of The Guardian for the facts.

It is also worth noting that, when the Conservative Party was in power, they were also aware of my plight and did absolutely nothing to get the Police to do their duty.

P. Nikiforos Diamandouros the European Ombudsman advised me that, as my case is FRAUD, go to the POLICE, which I did on numerous occasions to no avail.

The Tory Party, the Liberal Party and the Labour Party are FULLY aware of the Police failing to act on the blatant fraud against me as an ethnic Irishman in the UK. Therefore, in what way could the British National Party be worse than this?

Headlined in the Harrow Observer on Thursday, April 9, 2009, “Harrow’s (Labour) parliamentarians Tony McNulty and Gareth Thomas claim for more than £180,000” – This, while their constituents are being demented for the want of Natural Justice.

It is evident everywhere that the British mainstream parties have hijacked the rule of law for their own ends, by denying the people Courts of Law, due process and justice.

Under the known circumstances, I strongly advise the People in the UK to go for the likes of, Kevin Edwards and Meirion Bowen, Big-Time in the forthcoming elections, as I am confident they will bring me and the People in the UK long, long overdue JUSTICE, and restore the rule of law in our bureaucratic Kangaroo Courts in the UK: - To Trial by Jury for EVERY case Civil and Criminal, which is the law of the land.

Patrick Cullinane, I salute you sir for having the honesty and integrity to put your name to your views and opinions, unlike 'impertinent' who hides behind a nom de plume whilst seeking to mock and trivialise the horrific experiences of people like ourselves at the hands of individuals within a corrupted system.
I note that in your first letter you state that, "A court of law is trial by jury.
I would amend this to, "A true court of law is trial by jury."
Referencing my own experiences, 'impertinent' alludes to 'a perceived injustice.'
I wonder where does he/she get their information from?
The word 'perceived' could not be further from the truth, and I would replace it with a better word like 'certain' or 'definite' as is clearly demonstrated on my website, Colin Peters Before the Court of Public Opinion.
My website can accessed at http://colinpetersbd
40jh.tripod.com or by Googling 'Colin Peters Dennis Bottomley John Walford.'
The party who can restore democracy and the principles embodied in the Magna Carta to this country is the party I shall vote for.

It is about time the people of this country opened their eyes to massive frauds being perpetrated against them and in their name. I met Mr Bowen way back in the 1980s when we began our campaign to halt the rising tide of corruption by bankers and lawyers against the honest working people, now we can see what happened when the people did nothing . Now THEY have generated a legacy of debt for our children with the blessing of a Labour government. The Conservatives also did major damage to British industries with their policy that Britain's economy to be based on "service" (finance) industries, in other words making money out of money. Unless a country has massive natural reserves to sell to the rest of the world it cannot survive without a manufacturing industry. Perhaps the BNP have something to offer by way of a different approach. The Israeli Prime Minister said that the primary duty of a state is the security of its citizens. Somewhere along the way the British government have forgotten about the citizen.
