YESTERDAY 29/1/09 was a great day for British Nationalism.

In Grimsby, 1000 British construction workers demonstrated in support of British jobs for British workers and in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, 836 British voters returned their ballot papers marked in support of the British National Party.

Newcastle City Council
Fenham Ward
Thursday 29th January 2009
Mitzi Emery (Lib-Dem) 1049
Helen McStravick (Lab) 1025
Kenneth Booth (BNP) 836
Sarah Armstrong (Con) 186
BNP Percentage: 27.0%
May 2008: Lib-Dem 1491, Lab 1188, BNP 295, Con 290.

At the citys local council local elections in 2008, when Fenham ward was last fought, the British National Party polled 295 votes which was just 9% of the total vote. Last night BNP candidate Ken Booth, received 836 votes, 27% of the vote, and trebled the level of BNP support in the ward.

It was another in a string of brilliant results for the British National Party in local elections, Ken Booth told the BNP website this morning.
We were the only Party whose vote share went up which shows that our message is getting home and that was in spite of the huge campaign by the trade union, Unison, which put out thousands of leaflets and sent out thousands of letters telling people not to vote BNP. Their campaign was a spectacular and expensive failure and a waste of their members money.
We can clearly win this ward next time, but the next stop for us here in Newcastle is the European Elections where with a few more results like this one we shall be on course for a North East seat in the European Parliament, he said.

The result has sent shockwaves through the political establishment, and was the main item on BBC Look North news this morning with Labour and Lib-Dem spokesmen clearly stunned by the size of the BNP vote. And this result couldnt have come at a better time, as on Sunday the BBCs Politics Show for the North East and Cumbria is charting the rise of the British National Party in the region.

In the past the Old Gang parties have blamed low turnouts for giving the BNP a high percentage of the vote, but last nights huge 40% turnout, double the norm, blows that theory firmly out of the water. The BNP result is even more noteworthy in the light of a sizeable 11% ethnic minority population in Fenham Ward.

  • @godkingRoss Your missing the point

  • @bladerunner91100 you're not English.

  • @Glory2Eva it's not just "skin colour" you ignorant twat.

  • I don't think people get it do they? You don't have to be white to live in Britain, you don't have to be black to live in Africa!!!! People immigrate, all white people in Britain or descended from the middle east. So what if people immigrate today? So what if white British are a minority? WHY THE FUCK DOES IT MATTER? IT'S A SKIN COLOUR? Just because we were 'here first' doesn't mean we get first dibs on jobs!

    The BNP are so shit they have to get google translate to voice over there adver

  • Am from fenham and if it wasn't for the Asians this place would be a slum full of charves getting drunk and trying to kill each other am glad there here at least they got morales

  • I am from Fenham. I'd say there are 3 types of people. Pakis, Hippies and Nationalists. It's that polarised.

  • Lol the BNP are so poor and insignificant, they can't even get someone real to make their speeches, they make a computer do it xD An actual party has never been so pathetic!

  • Since then the BNP have lost seat after seat, losing over half their council seats in the last year. They are now down to 22, out of a national total of 22,000.That's 0.1%. Massive vote? They are nothing more than a fascist, fringe lobby group, who occasionally pick up a protest vote, responding to certain news events. They don't like to hear this, but it's the truth.

  • Haha such a laugh in newcastle av u seen who run da westend. U scumbag racist bnp need a life nd proper education

  • Just because you were born here by chance it does not give you the right to be a dick about it. We are EXTREMELY lucky to live in Britain. Think of this, you were one of millions and millions of sperms, and you happened to be born in one of 195 countries, so instead of slagging off people from other countries think how lucky you are for a change.
