Sedgefield Results

OK Guys. Keep Going.

Well there we go. We are still not getting through to enough people. Even while I type Andrew Spence is speaking after obtaining 2494 votes. The Tri-Axis parties have given the illusion of democracy again and the sheep people have done as they have done for decades. Voted without thought for their children's future.

But we take heart from the fact that we took 4th place with a saved deposit and 8.9% of the vote in a Constituency with a 95% white population who are still sleeping and voting the way their fathers did before them. Of course reality as not yet arrived on their doorstep. One day they will curse themselves that they did not vote BNP yesterday.

• SEDGEFIELD 19/7/07
• Gash (Eng Dem) 177 0.6%
• Gittins (Ind) 1885 6.7%
• Grainger (Christ) 177 0.6%
• Haine (Green) 348 1.2%
• Hope (Loony) 147 0.5%
• Horton (UKIP) 536 1.9%
• Robb (Con) 4082 14.6%
• Scarth (Anti Crime) 34 0.1%
• Spence (BNP) 2494 8.9%
• Stone (LD) 5572 19.9%
• Wilson (Lab) 12528 44.8%

Where to from here? Where the British National Party always goes. On to the next battle with more members, activists and supporters and a National Campaign Team that is really starting to get its professional act together. Well done Andrew and all the activists. Next time. Next time.

Whilst here. We must not forget the Swansea activists whose hardworking efforts were overshadowed by the events in Sedgefield.

The results for Llansamlet(Swansea) Council by-elections were

• Labour 769 36.9%
• Lib Dem 581 27.9%
• Plaid Cymru 283 13.6%
• BNP 226 10.8%
• Ind 221 10.6%

Well done Swansea.

BNP responsible for donation to Charity

Forget the Donor Card - Carry one of these

Well, if nothing else, the standing of a Candidate in the Sedgefied by-election by the British National Party has resulted in a donation of £1200 pounds to the Butterwick Childrens Hospice by the fork tongued Northern Echo.

The BNP as taken out some advertising space in that rag because some people are still reading it. At least until they realise they can get the real truth elsewhere.

They have posted the following in their comments section. Sorry I do not yet have the link. But here you go.


"In defence of free speech today, on page 13 we publish an advertisement for the british national party.

it is not something we have done lightly or from which we take any satisfaction, because we oppose everything that this far-right party stands for.

we understand that some of our readers will disagree with the decision, believing that the bnp should be denied the oxygen of publicity.

however, in going ahead with publication, we have taken into account the fact that the advertisement is perfectly legal and that the bnp os a legitimate party which is entitled to field a candidate in the sedgefield by-election.

the northern echo has a proud tradition of campaigning for freedom of opinion. we believe it is central to a democratic society and we should be proud of the fact that individuals and organisations in this country are free to express their opinions.

it would be hypocritical of us to champion those freedoms only to deny them to an organisation just because we disagree with what it stands for. where would the line be drawn? how far would we descend into the darkness of censorship?

this is an advertisement which is published reluctantly in the belief that it is right to do so.

but when the people of sedgefield vote for a successor to tony blair on thursday, we call on them to do so in pursuit of hope rather than the hate which the bnp stands for.

the £1,200 which the bnp paid for the advert will be donated to the butterwick children's hospice."
