ALL HAIL THE MASTER RACE
The National Front are certainly a force to be reckoned with in the West Country. Their 2008 newsletter boasted of their highlight of that year’s campaiging, a press release to the Wiltshire Gazette supporting Dame Judy Dench’s call to save Lacock Post Office.
Emboldened by this success they have moved on to bigger and better things, submitting a motion to Haydon Wick parish council calling for a referendum on the Lisbon treaty. Sadly this major step forward in the campaign for a sovereign and racially pure Britain was thwarted when the secretary of the parish council ruled it ultra vires,, and contacted the police to warn off NF activist, “Mike Matthews” from attending. On his blog “Mike Matthews” complains:
This was the opportunity for true democracy to take place; however, the local councillors have gone against their duty- ie, provide the local people with a voice, be them on a local or national issue- and have called the police to ensure that I do not turn up tomorrow to hold this very important meeting. They have also failed to contact me concerning this, and have left the police banging on my door to tell (warn?) me not to turn up tomorrow. To be honest, if they didn’t want me to hold the meeting they could of told me, either by phone, post or email, since I provided them with all three details.
This has forced me to cancel the meeting. The council are refusing to hold this meeting and in essence are against giving the people of Haydon Wick a voice. But don’t threat, this certainly will not deter us from what we aim to achieve- true democracy!
After discussing this with other local committee members, we have decided we will hold a parish meeting in January when we have found an appropriate location in the parish, since the parish council will not allow us use of the public building.
Some of you may recall an arson attack on Swindon’s Broad Street Mosque in 2006, carried out by Mark Bullman, at that time the treasurer of Wiltshire BNP; and who used a BNP leaflet as the fuse for a molotov cocktail. “Mike Mathews” was recently overheard admitting that he was the person responsible for this “highly juvenile incident”, so Sherlock Holmes might conclude that Mike Mathews and Mark Bullman might be the same person. Bullman has previously used the pseudonym Mark Bullock.

The poster on that bulletin board says that I ignored his approach to me. In fact i didn’t ignore it, but I was delayed in replying because my son was ill with swine fku at the time.

I’m afraid if that is indeed an accurate surmise of what he said - then he makes far more sense than you do.
Hail the Master Race! Good God, you are scraping the barrel aren’t you?

Andy didn’t ignore me at all, he contacted me once his son was well. And made the very reasonable point that the NF aren’t necessarily the main enemy at the moment.

Mind you the only reason the parish council got worried enough to contact the police was because I pestered them to death about who this idiot was.
And by the way I don’t think he is the same person as Bullock. Bullock was in the BNP at the time condemning the attack:

Firstly, I want to say that your information is inaccurate. Mark B is not the same as Michael Matthews, because the latter was in prison at the time of Mark’s arson attack. You should really try and get your info right Andy before spilling your c**p. As someone who is helping Michael with the Swindon NF campaign to try and give a voice to local residents, I can tell you know you will have a lot to write about, cause we have a hell of a lot planned, from demonstrations, to days of action and maybe even some candidates to stand in the next election.
