‘Third Party’ campaign in Barking is BNP front

A recently registered ‘publishing company’ that has been distributing glossy anti-Labour pamphlets in the Barking and Dagenham and Rainhill constituencies has been exposed as a BNP ‘false flag’ operation following an investigation by Searchlight.

The 12 page ‘Barking and Dagenham Sentinal’, which is devoted entirely to personal attacks on Margaret Hodge and John Cruddas, bears the imprint of  Sentinal Publications Ltd, a company registered on 1 April, this year, by Adam Walker, using a service address in Edinburgh.

Although the BNP’s website quotes Griffin as stating that:

“The BNP has long been the victim of these third party campaigns and it seems that the Labour Party is getting some of its own medicine back,”

Before going on to claim that:

“This magazine has been produced by a loose coalition of non-BNP people,”

In reality, Walker is a BNP Officer in the North East and the party’s official candidate in Bishop Auckland, in addition to being one of several BNP officers on the staff of the party’s two MEPs and, therefore, paid out of EU funds.

UDPATE

It’s just struck me that’s its worth ensuring that this doesn’t fall down the Internet memory hole, so…

the BNP have dropped another bollock – bunch of jokers

you still don’t get it…back in the 80s the National Front combined socialist economic policies with a desire to get rid of darkies…so you called it Right Wing.

The BNP is very very similar. The poeople who like the statist economic stuff but want to solve the “immigration problem” will go from Labour to the BNP. If that makes the BNP a right-wing party, so be it, but at least be honest about which vote it is targetting.

The paper raises legitimate questions about the record of Margaret Hodge. Questions both the report above and the mainstream media choose to ignore. Fortunately the Internet means that people are able to read the Sentinel and judge the content for themselves.

BNP and non-BNP people were involved in the production. Hope not Hate uses Labour Party offices as distribution centres. Unions provide finance for huge negative campaigns for which the Labour Party is the main beneficiary. If it is OK for Hope Not Hate to operate then why not the Barking and Dagenham Sentinel?

4. Cynical/Realist?

@2 – the BNPs policies outside of (and including really) hating minorities are so laughably amature and basic they can’t be called far-left or far-right. They are just a bunch of racists covering up with an attempt of something like policies. To give their policies and ideas a tag of statist or otherwise gives them a legitimacy they don’t deserve.

Well now, the public have spoken, and its a big Fuck Off BNP! Ha Ha!
