Comment on Reasons to Vote British National Party by Michael Barnbrook.

David,

Thank you for the comments. I don’t think either you or notobnp have treated me badly, just tried to give me a hard time. You are entitled to do that of course. All’s fair in love and war. You have to have thick skin to be a member of my party. The problem with putting personal comments on a website, as I have learned in the last 24 hours, is that some individuals might take those comments to be official party policy, which is not always the case. I now know what it must have been like when I was interrogating prisoners in police custody and throwing quick fire questions at them. I am my own man and cannot answer for the sins of others. I can assure you of one thing though, you will not find anything detrimental about me in any newspaper or on any website. When you have made as many enemies as I have in my fight against corruption, you have to be squeaky clean. I am not naive enough to realise that I could be on some establishment list for future retribution and I am not being paranoid when I say that. The problem with being a member of the British National Party is that if you are brave enough to put your head above the parapet and take it from me, sometimes you have to be brave, you lay yourself open to all sorts of abuse, both verbal and physical and in many cases, the threat of losing your employment. If that is what you call democracy I will do everything in my power to help change it. Contrary to public perception, many of our members are elderly and are not prepared to subject themselves to the threat of violence. We are all entitled to our political affiliations and I respect the fact that we have different views on what is the best way forward for our country. I am fearful however what is in store for us if Labour is re elected. I am reading an interesting book by Orlando Figes called ‘the whisperers’. It is all about life in Russia during the Stalin era. I would urge you to read it. It is all about how ordinary people’s lives were controlled by the state. If I had said to you five years ago that this country would reach a stage when you could be fined for putting the wrong rubbish in your bin or putting your dustbin out on the wrong day, you would have locked me up for being mentally unstable and thrown away the key. Now we all accept these kinds of intrusions into our daily lives as a matter of course. Frightening, isn’t it.

Regards,

Michael
