As regards Stephen Newton’s claim that the BNP are fascists, Chambers Dictionary defines fascism as being composed for four or five characteristics, one of which is “militarism”. Labour, Tories plus G.W.Bush took their military machines to Iraq (“for the oil” according to Alan Greenspan) and a million Muslims and Kurds died as a result. In contrast the BNP always opposed the war. Who are the fascists on that score?

And then there is small question of the million or so Muslims and Kurds killed. Who are the racists?

The BNP are going to have to kill an awful lot of Muslims etc before they become more racist than Labour or the Tories.

Another element of fascism as per Chambers dictionary definition is “restrictions on personal freedom”. There have been dozens of articles in broadsheet newspapers in the last year cataloguing the attacks on civil liberties and human rights by Labour.

And then there was the undemocratic (i.e. fascist) decision to implement a policy of mass immigration to the UK, a decision taken without consulting and against the wishes of the majority of Brits: a decision backed by Labour and Tories and opposed by the BNP.

The list of Labour and Tory fascist characteristics is endless. It’s a moot point as to who the fascists are, isn’t it?

They have been specifically carpeted for this – and other police related fibbery by GMP – with Cllr Marc Rambo being hauled over the coals for shameless exaggeration over proposals to regulate drinking in Canal Street and the same man I think at the back of the knife crime lies covered in the North Manchester press. They also took the last Chief Constable’s name in vain on Focus leaflets and got caught when they shoved them through his own door.

Is Barnbrook actually picking and mixing his tactics from some minty old Lib Dem campaigning handbook prepared by their current post-Rennard Campaign Director Hilary Stephenson? She’s authored a few whoppers that one. And Rennard was essentially removed for a HUGE RAMP on his accommodation claims re Lords where he apparently used to clock in daily and then go to his day job. Plus plus plus lying re “main home” nonsense.

Has Barnbrook got the Lib Dem playbook?
