The Southend Patriot is the official Southend BNP website

The BNP have just dropped a leaflet through my door. On it, Southend Patriot, a blog run by right-wing lunatics, is given as the web address for Southend BNP. It has a clear disclaimer on the blog:

This blog has not been endorsed by the British National Party. This is an independent site for Southend nationalists, it is not a British National Party site. We fully support and will promote the British National Party as we believe it is the only serious vehicle for the advancement of Nationalism in Britain. However, any opinions expressed on this site are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the opinions or policies of the British National Party.

So why is it being given as the official website of Southend BNP, then? Perhaps the BNP know to distance themselves from people advocating their true intentions. After all, Southend Patriot gives an insight into their sentiments. On the blog, you’ll find an article on a part of the history of Britain’s fascist movements, under the title: “HISTORICAL INTEREST No 1, The British Fascisti”. The rest of the site is full of newspaper articles which have been copied and pasted.

This is probably my favourite quote from the blog:

Ethnics at this commemoration were conspicuous by their absence. They expect us to celebrate their culture and their history but they show no respect for ours.

Unbelievable.
