A BNP councillor will stand against a policy to promote equality within Markyate Parish Council at a council meeting tonight.

Simon Deacon, BNP councillor and former leading National Front activist, called the Equal Opportunities Policy a waste of time and vowed not to support it.

Speaking before the meeting he said: "I'm totally against it.

"Why do we have to have all this bureaucracy? "People come here with work permits and they are supposed to be put on an equal footing.

Therefore somebody goes for a job and those other people who have been here for a matter of months can apply for the same job - that is what the Equal Opportunities Policy is all about. It is unfair.

"I have gone against things before with the council - that is democracy, that is politics. "I have to do what I think is right. I am sorry if that offends others but I have to go with my gut instinct and go with what I believe in, otherwise I'm a hypocrite."

But campaigners argue Deacon should resign from the council if he does not agree with the policy.

Jon Berry, of Three Counties Unite Against Facism, said: "He purports to be a representative of the community and it is absolutely clear that he regards some members of the community more important than others."

This is the only country in the world that actually seeks positive discrimination against it's native population, it's ludicrous that recently arrived immigrants are on an equal footing when it comes to council housing and jobs.
Well done Simon Deacon and may the BNP go from strength to strength.

Don’t these lefty’s make you sick if Jon Berry is such an ardent believer in democracy why it is that he and his UAF stupid bunch of hilly billiy bullies’ always want want to deny free speech to the BNP.
Good lick BNP at last people are beginning to wake up and support you.!!

Deacon, the former leading National Front activist told the St Albans Observer (25.4.07) on his election

“England was a white country – we think it should be returned to that. “

The Equal Opportunities Policy contains many statements that stand totally opposed to his racist ideology, particularly the clause on cultural diversity that states:

“the council recognises that we live in a multicultural society and believes that cultural diversity should be viewed positively.”

Apart from Deacon’s personal prejudice, this very mild and reasonable statement stands against the policy of the national BNP, which calls for “an immediate halt to all further immigration ......and the introduction of a system of voluntary resettlement whereby those immigrants who are legally here.”

You can hardly value another culture if you want it moved out of town.

Deacon has no place on this council and he should resign immediately.

I totally agree with Cllr. Deacon - why should foreigners enjoy equal footing with native Brits? What have they done to deserve it? Indeed whyare they even in this country?

As for Mr. Jerry - if he doesn't like what Cllr. Deacon has to say then why doesn't he stand for election? It's presumably because few he knows no-one in their right mind would vote for him. My advise to him is either put up (as stand for office) or shut out!

Well said Cllr. Deacon - someone at last with a little backbone!

The games up for all these dictatorial lefties who for the last 40 years have had us Brits in a headlock. Well, we've sussed them and began to wriggle free and will no longer be cowed by stupid name calling and guilt trips. We're going to start acting like other indigenous people areound the world!

Sense will prevail and if these old commies can't stand the policies of Mr Deacon I suggest they stand against him in the next election instead of ranting from the sidelines demanding people should resign. But then beating him in a fair election might expose them as NOT being representitive of the community as they like to make out!

Native white British people and their ancestors created the UK over many generations, defending our borders, often giving their lives in the process. So why should foreigners with no history here or no right to be here be given "equal opportunities" to our own people? There is no logical reason - except if Markyate Parish Council hate Britain and its people, and wish to destroy them. Communism has a terrible reputation and we must resist it - only the BNP, free of the controlling international elites, is able to do so.

Roger, Watford says...

The New Labour Communists are keen on Equal Opportunities (or "Discrimination Against Whites" to give it its correct name) because they want to continue flooding the country with third worlders and Eastern Europeans who, overawed by the sudden improvement in their standard of living compared with the hell-hole they have just left (e.g. Somalia, Zimbabwe, Rwanda), express their gratitude by voting for New Labour.

Immigrants also commit a disproportionate amount of crime, but that's of minor importance to the Communists, for whom staying in power overrides all other considerations.

The New Labour Communists (voted in by just 21.6% of the electorate in the 2005 General Election) have declared war on the indigenous population of these islands and we owe it to ourselves, our children and future generations not to let them get away with it.

Tom, St Albans says...
12:47pm Wed 2 Jul 08

I am sure all the above comments are welcomed by Cllr Simon Deacon, but is there anyone from Markyate Parish who agrees with him. I see people from Swansea, Dustable, Luton, Watford etc anybody from Markyate Parish agree with what he says?

Good to see the lunatic fringe of nationalist right wing politics is keeping abreast of all the developments in these parts.

And there we have the comments of ignorant, hate-filled racists, with no other agenda but to seperate and blame all the ills of the country on people of another colour.

Black people especially have been here in England for over 300 YEARS. Learn your history. They have EVERY RIGHT to be here, as much as the next person. Black people FOUGHT AND DIED in the 2 WORLD WARS - especially the 2nd World War. AND HELPED TO REBUILD THE ECONOMY AFTER THE WAR!! Or are the racists, memories somehow forgetful of that?

England has always been a 'WHITE COUNTRY'?? Since when? Maybe in the part that some of the racists grew up in, yes. England has ALWAYS been a melting pot of colours whether the racists like it or not.

Liverpool, Birmingham London, Manchester Blackpool Bristol, etc etc, the list is endless.

Learn your history. I wouldn't be surprised if any of the racists here now, have BLACK in their ancestory if they took the time to ACTUALLY CHECK!

sean, dunstable says...

Britain has only been a melting pot of "colours" for the past 40-50 years prior to that, coloured faces were virtually unheard of. Black people have worked in Britain for many centuries, but until recently, only ever in tiny numbers.
Presumably everyone in the world will have black DNA in their blood as human life began in Africa, however that does not mean our culture will be the same or compatible with a modern African.
Immigrants do commit more crime, until very recently Sweden had no immigration and crime was non-existent. 1 or 2 rapes a year maybe a few murders but now with large scale immigration their rates of crime are comparable with the rest of Europe, 98% of rapes on white Swedish women were committed by muslims.
I do not hate anyone, but I fail to see why my country has to become a version of Disneys "its a small world".

Steve Jenkins, Hereford says...
4:31pm Wed 2 Jul 08

Yes D'wayne black people fought in the second world war, but it wasn't out of loyalty or alligiance to Britain, they were paid and fed to do so, so let's not have this old " we owe them " rubbish, we owe them nothing, it was actually a catastrophic political mistake when the first wave of afro-caribbeans were allowed to enter Britain and stepped off the windrush in 1948.

Karl C, Carlisle says...
4:33pm Wed 2 Jul 08

Isn't it funny how the Unite Against Fascism always get their oar in... if they feel that strongly about something why don't they just stand as candidates? Ah yes, they are already and they are called the Labour party. All they are is a 3rd party low rate outfit that are hell bent on causing trouble against the British person. Well done Simon Deacon for standing up to these Communists! Good luck. .

Tom Woodson, Luton says...
7:38pm Wed 2 Jul 08

Dear Stormfronter Nazis - The policy has nothing to say about work permits as Deacon claims - it only has this as its central statement - “the council recognises that we live in a multicultural society and believes that cultural diversity should be viewed positively.”
If Deacon doesn't believe that he is not representing all of the people in the village and he should resign.
Oh, by the way, why did he vote for it last year ?

why dont we just give away our jobs and save them the trouble?
Im all for equal rights but bringing in an outsider into the equation is not playing a fair game-espacially when they take their money out of this country and not keep it in our system.

So, if you happen to be non white, you are liable to commit MORE CRIME??? Hmm, somehow, I don't think that equates.

Where are your figures for this 'fact'? Can you back them up with HARD EVIDENCE? Where are you getting your 'facts' from to come out with a statement so obviously untrue that it borders on laughable?

Hmm, I seem to recall Hitler coming out the self-same statements about the Jews. Only this time, the target has changed.

My my, how you racists never learn. The 2nd World War was fought on this agenda alone. People fought AND DIED for FREEDOM. Yet, you want democracy for some, and not for all?? Hmm, a strange kind of democracy that is.

And, as for sending people 'back to their lands of birth', well my friend, it would mean having to 'send back' virtually the whole population of the UK,as we are ALL MIXED in some form or other.

It would be a wonder that there would be anyone left to work within the country, if you lot had your own way. And, furthermore, if the BNP actually gained power, it would mean you were all for the pogrom of entire men, women and children?

People who, although they were born here, would be murdered like animals if they refused to go? Hmm, strange kind of democracy my friend. And believe me, THAT WOULD HAPPEN.

As soon as anyone dares stick up for the indigenous popultion "WHO HAPPEN TO BE WHITE" The daft overused racist card comes out it's getting tiresome.

The fact is that immigrants do have a country of their own!, and if its not run in a fit way for them to live there it's up to them to change it.
The indigenous of Britain have for the last 30 or 40 years been very accomodating and tolerant.
No one minds fairness of any race, no one minds helping those less well off of any race.

If you haven't by now realised we are being taken to the cleaners, to the point where it's now legal to discriminate against white straight males. its time that the indigenous people had a say in our own country.

The European Union is working for a multicultural Europe, of which the Lisbon Treaty is a clear example of. The cultural nihilists of the Left are preaching humanism, human rights, anti-racism — and subsequently denouncing anything with a trace of nationality and national pride. The old nation-states are to be destroyed; anyone will have the right to cross the borders, settle wherever they desire, and enjoy the fruits of what others have created.
In England, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Sweden, the feeling of national identity has successfully been subjugated, creating countries with insecure and bewildered citizens. People are seeing their history revoked, their identity, their pride. This is very skillfully done by the Left, who in most of the old part of the EU dominate the educational system and most of the media.
The simple reason that Europe is much easier to govern if there is no sense of national identity.
The poverty in the ‘Third World’ is not caused by lack of natural resources. Poverty arises, as does wealth, from the collective contents of a culture, its religion, values, traditions, language, institutions, art and organization.
Enough is enough, it's time for the silent majority to speak out, before Britain resembles the third world.

Hey D'wayne,

Have you overdosed on goat curry, bro'? You keep hitting the shift key on your keyboard.

Here is some evidence regarding non-white crime, as requested:

In the USA in 2006, of those arrested for murder and manslaughter, 41.6% were white and 56.2% were black. See the FBI's web site here:

http://www.fbi.gov/u
cr/cius2006/data/tab
le_49.html

According to the 2005 census (http://www.census.g
ov/compendia/statab/
files/racehisp.html) the USA's population comprised 81.6% white and 13.4% black.

Therefore blacks in the USA are over 8 times more likely to commit murder or manslaughter than whites. It should be noted here that "whites" includes hispanics.

London's ex-Chief Constable, Sir Paul Condon, said that most muggers in London are black. That was not his opinion; it was a factual statement based on crime statistics. See here:

http://www.telegraph
.co.uk/news/main.jht
ml?xml=/news/2000/10
/25/nfig25.xml

In 2007 in London, 27 teenagers were murdered by knives and guns. With perhaps one exception, all the killers were non-white. If you have evidence to the contrary please post it back here. 17 teenagers have been murdered in London so far this year. Again, I believe all the killers were non-white.

Are you still laughing, bro'?

You havent been paying attention to reality much have you ?
According to Diane Abbot MP who happens to be a black lady.
Sadly 80 per cent of gun crime in London is "black on black", often involving boys in their teens.

now there are two examples , there are plenty more examples.
next thing is to ask the reasons why, as there is a very good reason why this is so, but first people like you need to stop chanting racist, and face facts!
Then the problem can be sorted out.
I will give you a clue, it's cultural.

Referring to Hitler suits your agenda to silence people, however there is no link to the BNP and hitler.

What part of deport ILLEGAL immigrants and bogus asylum seekers of what ever race don't you understand?

you have got it bad, where do you get the notion of going around murdering people?

you should give up reading searchlight and UAF lies.

Come back when you have actually read the BNP policies, and debate when you have some facts.
that's a democracy.

That's right people have died for our freedoms, yet you use yours to tell lies.

You come to Britain to live or work and muddle along with the rest of us, and abide by British laws then welcome of whatever race.

Hey D'wayne,

I have some more statistics for you.

According to the Home Office's report on homicide for 2002 - 2005:

http://www.homeoffic
e.gov.uk/rds/pdfs06/
s95race05.pdf (see table 3.5 on page 21)

... non-whites accounted for nearly 23% of murder suspects (black 12.6%, Asian 6%, Other 4.2%) yet, according to the 2001 census (see http://www2.warwick.
ac.uk/services/equal
ops/areas/race/) non-whites represented just 8% of the UK population.

Therefore non-whites are about 3 times more likely to commit murder as you would expect, based on the demographics.

Now can you work out why we're angry?

Hi D'wayne,
You are correct that there have been black people here for over 300 years, they were servants then we abolished slavery in 1833. Apart from that the rest is drivel. Nobody forced the Jamaican's etc. to fight for us and if the employers at the time had paid a decent wage to men that had just saved us from conquest, we wouldn't have needed to import any. Give me a break. I was raised in South London during and after WWII and saw the place rapidly deteriorate, so don't tell me I don't what is was like first hand.

Yes, read the BNP policies. Hmm to give every householder firearms? Thereby giving racists licence to kill and murder. Very nice law that.

* make all benefits and social housing only available to British citizens.'

So, by 'British Citizens' I take it, means only WHITE? Thereby creating mass homelessness and starvation for those that do not happen to have been born with a white skin.

Your policies are odius in the extreme. And, if such policies were adopted, you would be kicked out of office before you have even started.


Oh, and you brush off the part about Hitler? How convenient. Black people have just become another scapegoat of your rabid hatred. Where will it end my friend?

First the Jews, now the non-white population. Very convenient to brush that off. The BNP ARE associated with Neo Fascists ALL OVER EUROPE AND AMERICA, and that is a fact.

Also, 'I come to Britain'??? My friend. I WAS BORN HERE! Yes, there is black on black gun crime, as there is white on white gun crime, as there is Child molestors and murderers of children .

Wayne, Liverpool says...
1:09am Fri 4 Jul 08

Child Molestors and murders of children, I might add, the majority of which are WHITE

Wayne, Liverpool says...
1:23am Fri 4 Jul 08

* replace 100,000 NHS bureaucrats with doctors, nurses and dentists.
* invest sufficient money in the NHS to provide a decent service to the British people.
* bring hospital cleaning back in-house and make high cleanliness a top priority.
* end the scandal of foreign ‘health tourism’.
* train and pay to retain British doctors, nurses and dentists instead of looting the Third World of staff who are desperately needed in their home countries.

So, you would 'Send Back those doctors and nurses . Now, this is even though they are qualified to do the job. You propose to train up white, doctors and nurses to do the work instead? For a start, there would NEVER be enough staff for you to be able to do that. And secondly, the NHS would collapse overnight, with everyone having been 'send back'

And what of those people who were born here, who don't happen to be white? Where would you send them back to? And, it has to be asked, WHY? Especially if they were born here? No, your policies are evil and odius and unworkable.

As I have stated before, the whole country would come to a grinding halt if the BNP ever took power. Because there would be nobody left within the country to do the jobs that the WHITES would not do.

I agree totally with
Simon Deacon(equality waste of time). What this country neeeds is people like him to speak up for the silent majority who are fed up with immigrants getting
so much priority the moment they step into the U.K. Charity begins at home!

I think that you should look at things the in relation to your country the same way as you would look at things in your own home. You would not put outsiders before your own son or daughter if your own needed a room or food I think that most of us would look after our own before anyone else. If anyone should resign I think it should be Mr. Berry
