"We'll burn your f****** homes"

March 30th 2004

The threat that "we'll burn your f****** homes" was made this evening to the committee members of a working men's social club in the Tyneside town of Gateshead by a senior figure in the so-called "United Against Fascism", formerly the extreme left Anti-Nazi League.

The social club has been a popular venue for BNP meetings over the past 2 years, but the threat of having their homes targeted and their families killed, was understandably too much for the good folk of the ruling committee of Team Social in Gateshead who have not been used to this kind of violent and threatening behaviour.

The BNP meeting, which was originally planned tonight to raise funds for the Euro Elections due to take place on June 10th, was hastily rearranged to make use of a back-up venue - the Forresters Arms. However the UAF were aware of the change of location, possibly due to monitoring of mobile phone activity and a UAF mob arrived to deny access to the venue. A scuffle broke out which led to UAF assaults upon a BBC camera crew and Dr. Alan Patterson, the BNP lead candidate for the North East Region. Dr. Patterson, a private medical practitioner was allegedly knocked to the ground and had his car keys stolen from him by one member of the UAF mob.

We have been told by eye-witnesses that the leader of this anti-democratic gang is one Yunus Bakhsh, a staff nurse of Pakistani origin currently working at Newcastle General Hospital. He is a member of the extreme left wing trade union- Unison's National Executive and is also a member of the Marxist "SWP". Following complaints by Dr. Patterson and others, Northumbria Police have arrested and this evening continue to detain a number of UAF thugs.

This kind of challenge to the British democratic process serves to simply polarise those of our own kind; those Britons who value the ability to debate freely all issues and the mutual respect that we may sometimes" agree to disagree", against the wholly alien concept that political opponents have to be beaten into submission. One method wins support amongst those that value democracy, the other wins support only amongst those minority newcomers that are innately hostile to the ancient European concepts of free speech and democracy.

One positive aspect that certainly results from this evening's activity, is that, those good and thoroughly honest folk that have for the first time in their lives, been regrettably subjected to fear and hatred by a minority of thugs, will be exercising their democratic right in the privacy of the ballot booths on June 10th. Those in charge of the working mens' club, who are coming to terms with the threat of having their homes firebombed by left-wing and Pakistani extremists have made it clear which candidate they will be backing on June 10th! When Britons have their back to the wall, that is when we are at our very best!

I'll burn their f***in homes! bloody BNP have some nerve calling those they seek to opress "thugs". Though thugs they (the UAF) may be, it's people like the BNP who've put ethnic groups such as the Pakistanis in the position of having THEIR backs against the wall. Headline should read
"BNP hoist by their own petard"

Or have a look here and see some of the people involved in Unite Against Fascism, and see whether the BNP smear campaign or the UAF supporters seem more worthy of suspicion:

Typical Liberal news source, no mention of the scuffle where the Liberal activists were at fault...

so... anti-nazi is liberal? Says something about conservatism, doesn't it? ;)

Lets be honest; a key tenent of Nazism is the removal of most, if not all, of our civil rights. It's so delicously ironic when they clamour for their own. I don't sympathize whatsoever.

I'm not convinced the BNP is "Nazi".

Don't respect something that has no respect.
Don't sympathsize something that has no sympathy.
Don't understand because they have no understanding.
Don't give them freedom because they're not going to give yours.

Fuck Nazi sympathy.
Don't give them freedom because they're not going to give you yours.

Well, its the only other reference to the incident that I can find online. The news source are owned by Mirror Group, who may or may not fit your own particular definition of 'liberal' - I guess that depends where you stand in teh political spectrum. Strange that the BBC have not appeared to report anything online, despite the claim that their camera crew were assaulted.

As far as I am concerned, whether the BNP have a hidden "Nazi" agenda or not is irrelevant: the policies that they openly advocate are abhorent to me, and the criminal records of their leading lights hardly instill me with confidence.

Here is a sample of the thoughts of the above-mentioned Dr Patterson:

Dr Patterson said he quit his job in the NHS because he was fed up with treating foreign patients.

He said other doctors in the NHS think as he does but are afraid to speak out.

Dr Patterson, who was a member of the Ulster Unionists when he lived in his native Northern Ireland, said he fears Christianity in Britain will be diluted and overwhelmed by incoming religions.

He said: "I lived in the mixed culture of Northern Ireland and attended victims of bomb blasts. I do not want that over here. I believe that we should only accept a small number of persecuted people into this country.

"Any that come into this country should accept this country's culture and traditions and I would want them to drop their false religions."

Make up your own minds.

Oh no.
Looks like the dreaded Mongoose Spatula has been reincarnated, after shooting himself in his bunker.

Johnny Tolerant - you fucking tit, if you really think that this sort of bollocks will convince anyone to join your cause, you are sorely mistaken, I will continue to support left wing organisations and causes, no matter if a few members get a little carried away (and I don't blame them), because I beleive that social justice is right for this country, the BNP are wrong for this country, their policies are disgusting and abhorrent, they should take their own advice and piss off back where they came from, namely the other side of the channel (go back far enough, its where all the bloody Saxons came from)

Sooooooooo...

A BBC crew were 'attacked' yet they've not mentioned it at all.

The people who own the Mirror and Daily Mail are 'liberal'.

Looks like the BNP have once again taken their 'facts' from their collective anal orrifices.
