the big 3 parties - full of liars and criminals!

PBN | 21.04.2004 21:34

Just some of the many serious crimes carried out by serving and former elected representatives of the main parties: Tory, Labour and Lib Dems

Liars, buggers and thieves

Julian Leppart catalogues just some of the many serious crimes carried out by serving and former elected representatives of the all Gang Trio.

A favourite trick of lib-left interviewers when losing an argument with BNP spokesmen is to start banging on about "BNP criminals."

Well, as Anne Winterton pointed out in The Sunday Times, this really isn't a very honest thing to do when not mentioning the fact that a very small number of BNP criminal records (mainly the result of political persecution, self-defence against leftist thugs and youthful stupidity now twenty years or more in the past) need to be put into the context of the far worse, more numerous and more recent crimes of many members of the old parties.

Here is a far from complete list which readers will find useful as well as shocking.
