There is a useful chart of the BNP’s local authority election results on its website, from which we can construe a few facts about them and the mountain they are climbing. I think the present tense in that latter regard is entirely justified now, btw. The climb, wherever it takes them, has properly begun.

The first thing to make perfectly clear is that it is a climb in three parts. A base camp must be established in each local authority ward and Westminster constituency. There must then follow a period of steady progress - hard graft with the object of familiarisation of the terraine and consolidation of further gains. Finally, when all is ready and the electoral conditions are right, one may strike out for the summit.

What the BNP’s figures tell us is that besides the 32 mountaineers who planted the Cross of St.George on their particular summits on Thursday there are a further 225 in the middle phase of the local authority ascent. They are comprised of about 75 second places and double that number of thirds. And that, of course, does not include the twenty councillors the Party has in areas where no election took place this time, nor all those in the middle-phase in those areas.

The climb these guys are attempting would daunt any new Party in Britain, never mind one that the liberal Establishment demonises and persecutes relentlessly. So it is safe for us to assume that they are extremely determined and their supporters sincere. Likewise, it is not useful to draw too many negative conclusions from those wards where supporters are less numerous. In the Respect stronghold of Tower Hamlets three brave BNP candidates polled 972 votes or 9.4% of all votes cast, and finished 10th, 11th and 12th! But 9.4% sounds pretty good to me under the circumstances. The general range of third-place percentages was 11% to 25%. Seconds ranged from 20% to 30%, and one or two even higher than that. A first place required about 35%. One must, then, analyse according to the phase of the climb and the nature of the terrain, or one will miss the real and hopeful meaning of what took place.

The three main parties will not make that mistake when their backroom boys sit down to crunch the BNP numbers. They will see that something new is occurring, and the old methods of containment cannot be relied upon anymore.

So expect the sincerest form of flattery as all three suddenly rediscover the concerns of their white working class electorate. They don’t have much elbow room. Since 7/7 all of them have been desperately but unsuccessfully looking for ways to nullify young Muslim alienation, and there is no obvious way in which relaxing the endemic anti-white racism of our age can be accomodated to that. The multicultural project is founded on legal repression. Ease back and demands for freedom of expression and association will come barrelling out of the sunlight, guns blazing. That simply can’t be allowed.

So then, it will have to be not a change of philosophy in any way but a plethora of carefully contrived, sticking-plaster policy proposals - social housing investment, fake public consultation, even more fake community cohesion initiatives ... They will be palliatives, yes, and they will not survive close inspection. But they may slow the climb insomuch as in working class areas the BNP campaigns heavily on housing for asylum seekers and other forms of official favouritism which rile white hackles. The great questions of race and England, and the Marxisation of politics, don’t hit the electoral spot.

Personally, my heart sinks when I hear BNP interviewees insist to the BBC that the issues are not about race. I yearn for them to round on their persecutors and demand the evidence that our people share the liberal elites’ love of racial diversity. But I have to remind myself that they are not yet far enough advanced on the Great Climb. One day, perhaps.

Very gratifying results. The Cross of St George reference is,however, more suited to an ENP than a BNP. The Union Flag will do nicely,thanks.

Al,

When Scots survey the prospect of a non-white majority in Glasgow in just four years, as applies to London now, then it will be time for BNP Scotland to claim the Saltire from the Marxist SNP.

Martin,

Here is UKIP glorying in its “breakthrough” on Thursday - a single seat on Hartlepool council, God help them.

In the small hours of yesterday morning Nick Griffin had a very tough interview with a well-prepared and totally hostile Richard Dimbleby, backed up by a studio filled with hateful chortlers of other political persuasions. Griffin didn’t do well, particularly on his economic policies, which do not make sense.

I can’t find the link now. It was on Nick Robinson’s blog, but has gone off the page.

Economics is the achilles heel for Griffin, and he will be slaughtered regularly unless he gets real.

I’m pleased with the result, it’s raised the profile of the BNP . But it’s just the beginning - Liberals aren’t democrats.
Griffin did well in the interview with the very hostile liberal, but I do think the party should voice the postive points about the world economy. It is after all not such a big deal.

Of course, if they do continue to climb they might just progressively jettison all the principles that built the BNP platform.

Once reaching the top they might be featherweights like the current parties which hold power.

Maybe we are in a different era now?

All this speculation would be more meaningful were it not for the BNP is most likely fully infiltrated with state assets and run by MI5 and Special Branch.

racial antagonism (gruesome description of and reveling in rape cases, for example) however cathartic they may be to the simple minded are just asking for trouble and should be avoided

You must mean stuff like this:

A MAN whose head was sliced open with a machete by a racist mob as he tried to protect two young women has been left paralysed down one side.

John Payne, 33, a construction superviser for South Quay-based company Construction Resources Ltd, and two friends were viciously set upon by a gang of Asian youths wielding machetes and metal bars in Stepney on April 8. At around 11.30 pm that night, John was walking two young female friends home after an evening out. Det Con McCullogh of Tower Hamlets police said that a gang of between six and nine Asian youths, aged between 16 and 20, were waiting in the car park. They shouted racist insults at John and his friends, who told them to be quiet. They were then set upon by the gang, which swelled to a mob of 20 as other Asian youths rushed to join in the beating.

Despite John and Denny’s attempts to protect her, Jenny was repeatedly punched and kicked, and struck on the head with a metal pole.

Denny and John were both hacked around the head with machetes, leaving John with a deep wound.

If this had happened in a foreign country, the Foreign Office would be issuing travel advisories and warning Britons to stay away. Yet it happens to us in our capital city and there is silence.

Yes indeed, Mr Rackell, stuff like this.

Comparisons between this and Basil Fawlty’s “dont mention the war” are compelling and, as usual, JJR as Manuel isnt paying attention.

David Dimbleby interviewed Nick Griffin. His father, Richard, died in 1965. His brother, Jonathan, ‘died’ today—at least the show of the same name on ITV1 did, having its last transmission.

I think these types of story actually help to open peoples minds to accepting anti-multi-cultural arguments. Why else does the media play up the more horrific white-on-black/brown crime stories while playing down the more horrific black/brown-on-white crime stories.

I am happy to report that MR has been taken off the list of banned sites in Surrey County Council’s libraries, so all that special pleading by JJ Ray on behalf of the you-know-whos must have been good for something after all;-)

Amalek,

Thanks for that news. At last, we are just a conventional political website.

Martin,

Tottenham Lad is right, I think. Consider that the first Charlene Downes post is still attracting comments, some from Blackpool folk who have obviously googled for information on Charlene and only really come upon us.

When the MSM will not report a story like Charlene’s we have a choice. Either we give it an airing or we allow the burial policy to proceed as intended. It is, of course, no choice at all.
