Radical Islam’s worldwide war against the West has taken a frightening turn with the first reported occurrence of a suicide bomber using his body cavity to transport a bomb past metal detectors.

The advent of “body cavity bombs” marks a frightening development which can, quite literally, cause a complete halt to air traffic and public events while new methods of detection are developed.

The “body cavity bomb” technique was used for the first time last month when a bomber blew himself up in a failed assassination attack on Prince Mohammed Bin Nayef, head of Saudi Arabia’s counterterrorism operations inside the Royal Saudi palace.

The bomber, named as Abdullah Asieri, one of Saudi Arabia’s most wanted men, managed to avoid detection even though he went through two sets of airport security including metal detectors, and also palace security. He spent 30 hours in the close company of the prince’s own secret service agents without raising any suspicion, it is reported.

The blast left the prince slightly wounded, but the method used to bring the bomb to the intended victim has shaken security experts worldwide. It was smuggled in inside a container containing a pound of explosives and a detonator inserted into Asieri’s rectum.

Security experts have warned of a “total shutdown” in air traffic and other public events if counter measures are not quickly developed. Currently, the only way to detect such devices would be to x-ray a person or subject them to a physical body cavity search.

Both possibilities are impossible to execute on large numbers of people at say airports, train or bus terminals. Experts have also pointed out that female Muslim suicide bombers — of which there have already been many — could avoid x-ray checks by claiming to be pregnant. It would in any event not be possible to x-ray commuters on an urban train service each time they travelled.

The bombing mission in Saudi Arabia has been put online by al-Qaeda in the form of an animated film showing the meeting between the bomber and the prince. In the video, Asieri told the prince that more senior al-Qaeda figures wanted to surrender and convinced him to talk to these people on a mobile phone.

In the conversation, recorded by al-Qaeda, a beep is heard in the middle of two identical phrases that are repeated by the bomber and his handler. Explosives experts say that beep was most likely a text message activating the bomb concealed inside Asieri.

The al-Qaeda video says it will share its new technique via the Internet for other bombers to use in their holy war against the West.

The security experts have warned that when these devices become widespread, they could only be combated by naked body searches of everyone at places where large numbers of people gather. The only other alternative is for Western nations to come to an understanding of the cause of terrorism in the world today and act upon it.

The causes — mass Third World immigration and a foreign policy which provides Islamists with propaganda to radicalise even more Islamics across the globe — need to be speedily addressed.

Until mass Third World immigration into Britain and other First World countries is halted — and reversed — Islamists will have a large pool of potential recruits from which to draw. Secondly, the foreign policies of First World nations need to be adjusted to stop interfering with the internal politics of Islamic nations.

Once these two issues are addressed, the primary causes of terrorism will have been abated, although the West must always be on guard. Islam’s history over the last 1,300 years has shown that it has launched violent attempt after attempt to seize all of Europe for Mohammed, and there is no reason to think that this process is yet at an end.

Recommended reading: Jihad: Islam’s 1,300 Year War on Western Civilisation, by Arthur Kemp.

For centuries, violent Muslims have been trying to capture Europe for Islam. Sweeping out from its origin in Saudi Arabia, Islam has expanded through violent conquest into North Africa, the Middle and Near East, and very nearly into Europe itself, attacking through Spain, Italy and the Balkans. Each time, the Islamic hordes were turned back by a united European military effort.

Today, the Islamic invasion is not being carried out with sieges, scimitars, or cannon, but rather by immigration, birth rates and demographics.

Given current trends, Europe is set to be overrun before the end of this century.

This book puts the current crisis into historical perspective, showing that instead of being a “religion of peace,” violent Islam has, in fact, been waging war on all its self-appointed opponents since its inception.

Finally, this book dares to say what must be done if Europe is to avoid succumbing to the new invasion. The choice is hard, but is one which will determine whether Western Civilisation lives or dies. Softcover, 72 pp. £7.95 Click here to order online.

Trevor Phillips and the rest of the anti-British bigots at the absurdly named ‘Equalities Commission’ have underestimated the resolve and tenacity of the British National Party, projects coordinator Councillor Paul Golding told the party’s latest Black Country meeting.

“They think we are as limp and feeble as the rest of the political elite, but we are the descendents of the Heroes of Trafalgar, Rorkes Drift, the trenches, D-Day and the Falklands,” said Cllr Golding.

“We do not give up and we do not back down, no matter how much criminal legislation they rush through Parliament designed to suspend democracy in this country. The outrageous attempt by the Equalities Commission to criminalise our membership criteria is in reality an attempt to destroy even further any basis for the legal existence of the real British people and nation,” he said.

“And by the real British people I mean the native peoples of the British Isles, the people who built and defended this country across millennia, through World Wars, through over 40,000 years of tumultuous struggle and epic history. We are the British people, not immigrants and not asylum-seekers!” Cllr Golding said to great applause.

Referring to the story of his great-grandfather, who was captured at Dunkirk in 1940, Cllr Golding asked the audience to raise their hands if they had a relative who fought in the Second World War. The result was astounding with at least 90 percent of the crowd raising their hands.

“As this proves, it was our forbears, our ancestors, our families who defended this country and handed it down to us, their descendents. We have a duty to fight for our country just like they did, so that we can hand our island homeland down to our children and grandchildren,” he said.

The first speaker of the evening was Cllr Russ Green, who outlined some amusing tales of his time as a councillor dealing with the jobsworth non-entities of the local Lib-Lab-Con parties.

A raffle and collection raised crucial funds for local activities, and the chairman of the meeting, local fundraiser John Salvage, announced further meetings and activities in the near future.

By Asmodean — Following the unveiling of a new line of Excalibur T-shirts featuring Welsh hero Owain Glyndwr — The Prince of Wales, the pseudo-nationalists of Plaid Cymru have been in a frenzy.

“Owain Glyndwr wasn’t a bigot,” they wailed. History suggests that he wasn’t, but Plaid are bigots. They have manipulated his legend to further their own anti-English immigration agenda, ignoring the fact that Glyndwr himself was half English.

Plaid don’t have the monopoly on the use of Owain Glyndwr’s imagery and legend, particularly as they support the European Union, which will ultimately place the rule of Wales into unelected commissioners on the Continent.

We can assume with some knowledge of Owain’s beliefs that he would never have supported this development, nor would he have supported Plaid Cymru Welsh Assembly Members leading a Muslim march through Newport.

The anti-English Plaid are a ragtag collection of old Welsh landed gentry, militant Welsh speakers and permanently disgruntled tourist town shopkeepers; the sort who will feign misunderstanding if you try to talk to them in English, not if you’re Muslim though. Any ruler is better than the English, right?

I once listened to a drunken Plaid supporter babble on about “English racism towards the Welsh.” I asked him where he thought his name — Smith — came from. “I’m Welsh,” was all he could say.

Smith is derived from the Anglo-Saxon “smitan,” to smite or strike. Coupled with this man’s physical appearance, he was obviously not one of the ‘Britons’ or the ‘Native British’; he was of Anglo-Saxon stock. His English forbears probably came to Wales from the West Country at the beginning of the coal boom.

Luckily, the dissolution of the series of laws which constitute an Act of Union between England and Wales is not a high priority concern amongst the Welsh population. Many recognise the bonds between the two nations: shared history, cultural values and religion, and in most cases, a shared ethnicity.

Plaid are supposed to be for the protection of Welsh culture. Why then, do they support the multicultural doctrine, which does everything other than preserve the host culture of a nation?

The encouragement of Islamisation is something Owain Glyndwr would never have allowed. If allowed to happen, the monuments to his heroism will be eradicated by Islam, just as destroyed Buddhist statues litter forgotten corners of Afghanistan, testament to the destructive power of unrestrained ‘cultural enrichment’ by Islam.

Plaid shouldn’t throw stones.

The European Union has spent £139,000 of taxpayers’ money interfering in the upcoming Lisbon Treaty vote in Ireland as leading senators in the Czech Republic have launched yet another attempt to halt the ratification process.

In what clearly is an unlawful interference in the Irish referendum, the European Commission paid for a 16-page ‘Guide to the Lisbon Treaty’ newspaper insert.

The EU propaganda, which comprised 1.1 million copies, was distributed at a cost to the taxpayer of £139,000. The booklet explicitly promotes the EU and maps out what it claims are the alleged benefits to Ireland of the Lisbon Treaty.

According to a leak from within the legal services of the EC and the Council of the EU, serious reservations were expressed over the legality of the booklet.

Patricia McKenna, a former Green Party member of the European Parliament and a leader of People’s Movement, a pressure group that opposes the treaty, criticised the latest intervention by Brussels.

“The EU Commission, with the massive funds and resources available to it, courtesy of the taxpayer, can just throw money at influencing Irish opinion prior to the vote. We have to campaign on a shoestring.”

Mrs McKenna won a landmark legal challenge in the Irish Supreme Court 14 years ago to prevent the “unconstitutional use of taxpayers’ money for propaganda purposes in referendum campaigns.”

“This is an unlawful use of European taxpayers’ money, since the EC has no competence whatever in the ratification of treaties,” she said. “It is gross interference.”

Meanwhile, a group of Czech senators today filed the second constitutional challenge against the EU reform treaty, posing another hurdle to its ratification.

Senator Jiri Oberfalzer said that he lodged the petition with the Brno-based Constitutional Court, requesting it to review several sections of the Lisbon Treaty.

The move will further delay a signature by President Vaclav Klaus, which is the last step required for the Czech Republic’s ratification of the treaty since parliament approved it in May.

President Klaus has also expressed his opposition to the Lisbon Treaty.

Nothing better illustrates the hypocrisy and intellectual bankruptcy of the Labour Party in general, and Gordon Brown in particular, than their shameless propensity to steal BNP policies and slogans lock, stock and barrel!  

Even as Labour politicians abused the BNP in the most immature and childish terms from their conference platform, they once again paid the most generous possible tribute to the British National Party’s hegemony in the battle of ideas. For today’s Labour conference speech by Gordon Brown contained another truly astonishing example of Labour’s desperate policy plagiarism.  

A draft policy proposal from London BNP to the British National Party’s 2009 annual conference in Blackpool contained the recommendation

“…that there be no council flats and no welfare benefits available to unmarried mothers under the age of 21. Instead they will be placed in ‘mother & baby homes’. Here they will receive academic education as well as parenting classes, plus courses covering all aspects of their social development. The homes will be run by ‘matron’ type figures.”

This draft conference proposal from London BNP triggered a predictable apoplectic reaction in the Leftist media, with The Daily Mirror – in effect, the Labour Party’s house rag for the cerebrally challenged – ranting and raving on 1 September about the BNP policy proposal under the headline “BNP to attack unmarried mothers next”.

Clearly there must have been a strange change of heart in Labour circles before Gordon Brown’s keynote conference speech today, in which the Prime Minister said

“And I do think it’s time to address a problem that for too long has gone unspoken, the number of children having children. For it cannot be right, for a girl of sixteen, to get pregnant, be given the keys to a council flat and be left on her own.

From now on all 16 and 17 year old parents who get support from the taxpayer will be placed in a network of supervised homes. These shared homes will offer not just a roof over their heads, but a new start in life where they learn responsibility and how to raise their children properly. That’s better for them, better for their babies and better for us all in the long run.

We won’t ever shy away from taking difficult decisions on tough social questions.”

So bankrupt Brown has yet again been caught red-handed trying to steal BNP policy proposals in the most blatant possible fashion.   Truly, we live in extraordinary times, where a small nationalist party, reviled by the Left-liberal Establishment, can also act as a fertile policy think tank for a decaying and desperate Left-Liberal Government.  

Of course, the electorate will not be taken in by Brown’s bogus adoption of BNP policy proposals, any more than they were fooled by Brown’s empty sloganising about “British Jobs for British Workers”.   After all, voters who want nationalist policies have the option of voting for nationalist politicians who say what they really believe and really believe what they say.

The old saying that ‘You can’t get blood out of a stone’ could be used to describe retrieving what should be public information from the corrupt Manchester city council, reports British National Party super-activist Derek Adams.

“I am still waiting for a truthful reply to the freedom of information request I first submitted in February 2009 concerning the use of Manchester Town Hall facilities by extremist communists,” Mr Adams said.

In the reply Mr Adams received on the 8th July 2009, the Chief Executive’s office reluctantly admitted that Cllr Jim Battle had allowed UAF and Searchlight, the organisation run by Communist Party council candidate, Gerry Gable, to use the Manchester town hall free of charge.

“They even conceded that Mr Battle had led them to believe that the rooms were being used for council business,” Mr Adams continued. “However they did not fully disclose the true extent of this cosy little arrangement between the extremists of the far left and the Labour controlled council.”

Armed with proof of further dates when these extremists had used the town hall, Mr Adams submitted a new complaint about the original answers.

“I spoke on the telephone to the freedom of Information (FOI) officer Marilyn McGuinness on 6 August 2009,” he continued. “I explained to her that the information she had previously provided was by no means a complete and honest disclosure.”

Mr Adams confirmed that he had proof of other dates that these extremists had use of the public building and provided Ms McGuiness with a small selection of the dates he had at his disposal. “I urged her to quickly give an honest and complete answer to his original request,” he said.

The next day Mr Adams received the following e-mail from Ms McGuinness:

To: Derek Adams

Subject: Re: Regarding our telephone conversation at 13.21 on 6/8/09

From: m.mcguinness@manchester.gov.uk

Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2009 16:24:55 +0100

Thank you for your email. I will of course look into this matter but before I do, if you have information that other meetings of the groups in question have taken place in the Town Hall, please let me have dates and details now so that I can make full enquiries.

Mr Adams thought it prudent not to disclose all his evidence at this stage and replied as follows:

09 August 2009 13:33:59

To: Marilyn Mc Guinness FOI

Mcr cc (m.mcguinness@manchester.gov.uk)

As I clearly stated in our telephone conversation, I have provided you with a selection of my evidence. I am not prepared to make further disclosures at this stage.

I now request that my original FOI request is dealt with in a wholly honest and transparent manner, as it should have been dealt with previously.

If there is some sort of cover-up or conspiracy occurring within Manchester town hall, then this will be exposed to the electorate of that city; therefore you must understand the requirement for me to withhold my further evidence until after your final response.

I am about to publicise the results of my inquiries into the Labour parties unhealthy relationship with Manchester city’s civil servants; as such I would prefer to do so once I have received your amended answer to my request.

I will await your response with interest.

The last contact made with Ms McGuiness was on 16 September 2009 when she advised Mr Adams that he would have his request answered by the end of the week:

Subject: Request for information

From: m.mcguinness@manchester.gov.uk

Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2009 18:12:15 +0100

To: northmanchesterbnp@

Dear Mr Adams, further to your phone call, your request is being progressed and we aim to send full reply by the end of next week.

After several futile attempts to contact Ms McGuinness by telephone, Mr Adams spoke to Elaine Williams, Sir Howard Bernstein’s secretary. Ms Williams also assured Mr Adams that his request was being dealt with.

“It is now almost the end of September and we are still no nearer to extracting a truthful reply to the simple request for information,” Mr Adams said.

“It is an indictment of a ridiculously incompetent regime if they genuinely do not know who used council taxpayer owned property,” he said.

“However, if, as we suspect, they are attempting to cover-up illicit activities committed by the Labour Party and other councillors, then they had better be aware that we are watching them closely and soon they will be answering for their anti-democratic activities.”

Mr Adams made an appeal for readers of the BNP website to help him to get the reply for which he has been so patiently waiting.

“It would be a great help if readers could politely call the people involved in this debacle and ask them when they intend to respond to this FOI request,” he said.

A shocking 50,000 jobs in Britain are taken every year by foreigners through the “transfer visa” scheme, it has emerged.

The 50,000 workers — of whom the majority come from India — are exploiting the “intra-company transfer scheme” in terms of which companies with offices overseas can transfer staff to Britain.

This process takes place as a mere formality and the transferee does not have to compete on the open market for the job in Britain.

Critics have pointed out that the no-questions asked scheme is being used to bring low-skilled workers into Britain without having to undergo any of the normal immigration hurdles that might otherwise present themselves.

Earlier, the Association of Professional Staffing Companies (APSCo) said that tens of thousands of British IT workers were being displaced as a result.

Industry experts have pointed out that there were documented cases of “IT workers” subsequently taking manual labour jobs in the agricultural sector.

There is no requirement for the company doing the transfer to advertise the job locally and, worst of all, recipients of such transfer visas have the right of settlement in Britain once their contract is complete.

In effect, this means that the legal immigration figures — already set at nearly 300,000 per year — are underestimated by 50,000.

According to APSCo, most of those coming to the UK on the visas are IT workers, with more than 70 percent from India. They also reported that experienced British IT staff claim they are now finding it “virtually impossible to find work” because of the flood of overseas contractors, who also work for cheaper rates.

According to newspaper reports, figures obtained under the Freedom of Information Act have shown that far from being specialists, the majority of IT workers arriving under the scheme are entry-level analyst programmers with fairly basic experience.

Apparently the transfer scheme is even being used by companies who have Government contracts to bring in overseas staff to fill jobs in Britain. In theory, at least, these should be civil service positions, paid for as they are by the British taxpayer.

According to APSCo chief executive Ann Swain, over “80 percent of non-EU IT workers coming to the UK are on intra-company transfers.”

In his reaction, Migrationwatch chairman Sir Andrew Green said companies were “exploiting this system to reduce costs. The losers are British IT workers.”

Threats by the Communist Party front organisations to interfere with the 22^nd October broadcast of the BBC’s Question Time show featuring the British National Party have been dismissed as “empty nonsense” by the BNP leader.

Reacting to the news that far leftist cranks hope to demonstrate and physically interfere with the broadcast, Mr Nick Griffin MEP said this “sort of nonsense was heard every time the BNP and the BBC were mentioned in the same breath.

“These cranks are closely allied to a Communist Party front organisation and each time the BNP has had a television election broadcast, these tired old whining extremists are wheeled out,” Mr Griffin said.

“They have threatened disruption, switching off the power, destroying the tapes; you name it. All of it has been empty nonsense and no one takes them seriously for a second.”

Mr Griffin also said he was not concerned about threats made by far left trade unions. “These fools blame the BBC when all it is doing is adhering to its legally enforceable charter.

“Instead of attacking the BBC for doing its job, the leftists should be wondering why their political party is importing workers from all over the world to take their own members’ jobs,” Mr Griffin said.

“If these so-called trade union leaders spent more time working for the interests of British workers, they would not be in the isolated minority position in which they find themselves.”

Mr Griffin said he was looking forward to discussing the topics of the day with the other panellists. So far the only one confirmed to take part is cabinet minister Jack Straw. The Justice Secretary was hurriedly brought in after his cowardly colleagues Peter Hain and Alana Johnson revealed themselves as being too scared to appear in debate with the BNP leader.

“I look forward to discussing the wide range of policies which the BNP has,” Mr Griffin said, pointing out that the party’s immigration policy only makes up about ten percent of its manifesto.

* Mr Griffin is set to appear on BBC1’s Question Time in London on 22 October.

Overwhelming popular demand has forced Excalibur to re-introduce the famous ‘It’s Cool to be White’ T-shirts.

Available in short and long sleeve versions, these fun T-shirts featuring a Polar Bear transmitting a humourous — but important message — were highly popular when first launched nearly five years ago by Excalibur.

Stocks eventually ran out and the T-shirt was not reprinted, with other designs taking precedence. However, continuing inquiries and demand from all over the world has now reached a point where the design has been brought back to life.

The T-shirt joins the more than 40 other designs which are stocked by Excalibur and can be ordered online by clicking here.  Sizes available: S, M, L, XL, XXL.

New figures have shown that the number of UK-born tenants in social housing over the last ten years has fallen by about 1.2 million while non UK-born tenants have increased by 300,000.

The Migrationwatch figures were unveiled by that organisation’s chairman, Sir Andrew Green, during a speech at the annual conference of the National Housing Federation in London last week.

Sir Andrew said the figures showed that the proportion of foreign born beneficiaries of social housing had increased over the period in question from 7.2 percent to 11.1 percent — an increase of 54 percent.

 “Migrants who arrived here in the last five years and are not refugees are not yet eligible to apply for social housing but could become so in future years if they are granted settlement,” Sir Andrew said.

“Grants of settlement for non-EEA nationals are running at about 160,000 a year, giving a potential pool of 800,000 although, of course, by no means all will apply.

Figures quoted by Sir Andrew showed that the number of social housing units in England had fallen from 4.4 to 3.9 million in the last ten years, but that immigration has added nearly three million to the population of the UK over the same period. England has borne the brunt of the population growth.

“The waiting list for social housing in England has risen by 80 percent in the six years from 2002 to 2008,” he continued. “This is up to 1.8 million, with a sharp peak in 2003–4. Recent research by the National Housing Federation, published in March, suggests that the waiting list could approach two million in 2011,” Sir Andrew said.

Earlier this month the Government announced plans to build 2,000 homes in England in a move which it described as the biggest social housing building project in England for “over 20 years.”

“This would be enough to meet the projected household formation of new immigrants for just over a week,” Sir Andrew said, adding that the pressure on social housing was set to continue because of a number of factors:

– The population of the UK is growing rapidly. It is twice as fast as in the 1990s and three times as fast as in the 1980s. At this rate it will exceed 70 million by the year 2028.

– Seventy percent of this increase is due to immigration. In other words, unless it is controlled, immigration will add the equivalent of seven cities the size of Birmingham over the next 20 years.

– Immigration is the major factor in household formation. Forty percent, or on average, nearly 2,000 new households a week are being created through immigration alone.

“Unless immigration is brought under control, we will need to build one home every six minutes for new immigrants for the next 25 years,” Sir Andrew said.

“In the debate about housing, immigration is a huge elephant in the room. Pressures on the green belt, the need for more affordable housing, overcrowding — all of these are made worse by large-scale, uncontrolled immigration. We are sitting on top of a population time bomb,” he concluded.

More than 1,500 British National Party leaflets were snapped up by eager members of the public in Neath Port Talbot town centre last Saturday morning, reports Councillor Kevin Edwards, prospective parliamentary candidate for the Aberavon constituency.

“The newly formed group of Neath Port Talbot BNP handed out over 1,000 leaflets to a very receptive public in less than two hours,” Cllr Edwards said.

“Around 500 leaflets were also delivered to a nearby housing estate and a leafleting team will be out in the constituency this coming week.”

Cllr Edwards said the enthusiasm shown by the public had shaken the small group of Labour activists who were also out in the town. “They soon disappeared when they saw how quickly our leaflets were being accepted by a grateful public,” he said.

“I was approached by the very ineffective local Labour MP Hywel Francis, who asked me why I was going to stand in what he called his seat,” Cllr Edwards said with a laugh.

“I answered by pointing out his inability to represent his constituents, and his party’s record on local job losses thanks to the fact that 70 percent of new jobs created under his government have gone to immigrants. He then turned and left.”

Cllr Edwards said Mr Francis also appeared to be quite upset at one of the BNP leaflets being distributed which detailed how much taxpayers’ money he had been milking in expenses over the years.

“My thanks go to everyone from the team who turned up on the day at short notice and particularly to the many members of the electorate who offered their support,” Cllr Edwards concluded.

The British National Party is serious about making a breakthrough in Coventry and has already identified its target wards in the city, new organiser Tom Gower has said.

Speaking before 40 people at the latest BNP meeting in Coventry, Mr Gower said that the branch had also drawn up its plans to take the party forward during the coming year.

The meeting was opened by branch fund holder Mark Badrick, who brought the audience up-to-date with recent events in the area, including the group’s printed A3 supplement that it issues with the Voice of Freedom on its paper round.

Mr Badrick also publicised the group’s yellow pages where local BNP tradesmen can advertise to fellow BNP members.

After a brief interval, during which a collection was taken, Mr Gower introduced the BNP organiser and local councillor for Melton & Rutland, James North.

In a wide-ranging speech, Mr North discussed how to turn extremist leftist propaganda into positive news for the BNP, the abuse of the National Health Service by bogus refugees, and the phony UKIP party’s role in acting as what he called a “Government safety valve.”

Mr North ended his speech with a call for activism. “Our time is now, but now is not a time for complacency. Now is a time to continue the hard work we started last year,” he said.

After an extra long ovation for Mr North, it was announced that the meeting had raised another £363 for the branch coffers.

The Conservative Party has formally committed itself to increasing the number of British troops in Afghanistan should it come to power.

This shocking statement from Tory Shadow Defence Secretary Liam Fox was made at an International Institute for Strategic Studies (ISS) meeting in London.

“A Conservative government would consider NATO requests for extra Afghanistan UK troops sympathetically,” Mr Fox said.

“We would be prepared to send additional forces to accelerate the training of the Afghan security forces in order to enable them to take on responsibility for combating the Taliban,” the Conservative Party frontbencher said.

He added that Afghanistan would be the military’s “main effort” under a Conservative government and that he had assured General Stanley McChrystal, the US commander in the country, that the Tories would be prepared to send more British troops.

Directly contradicting a number of British military commanders, Mr Fox went on to say that the “war in Afghanistan is winnable” and that “Britain’s commitment remains firm.”

With over 9,000 troops stationed in some of the most violent parts of Afghanistan, Britain is America’s biggest NATO ally there.

Mr Fox went on to fantasise that “moderate” elements of the Taliban could be brought into a democratic Afghani government.

“If sections of the Taliban can be brought into the political fold in Afghanistan and allowed to express their grievances through a political process rather than through violence, then why shouldn’t we support this?” he said.

Mr Fox’s plans are identical to those currently being followed by the Labour government.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown has talked of a process of ‘Afghanization,’ in which NATO trains and prepares the Afghan army and police to handle security themselves, and Foreign Secretary David Miliband has said NATO should try to engage what he calls moderate parts of the Taliban.

“The goal of security is achievable,” Mr Fox continued. “The current war in Afghanistan in that context is winnable. This is the message we must get across to our own people — many of whom think any military action in Afghanistan is doomed from the outset,” he said.

In other words, Mr Fox and the Conservative Party are not satisfied with the over 200 British deaths in Afghanistan and actively seek to increase the exposure of our troops in that country.

The British National Party is the only party that has opposed the illegal foreign wars form the word go. A BNP government would not only immediately withdraw from this Afghanistan disaster but would also seek for war crimes charges to be pressed against the Tory and Labour Party politicians who created those wars in the first place.

Yet another sign of the accelerating Islamification of Britain has come with the news that a Muslim prayer room has been specially constructed in the Government offices housing the Department for Children, Schools and Families.

There is no “Christian prayer room” in the new offices, which cost £3 million to upgrade. There is only a “contemplation area” and the Muslim area.

The refurbishment of Mr Ball’s offices have also included a massage room for him and his staff in case they get stiff spending the taxpayers’ money, or possibly from pain caused by sitting at their Italian designer furniture.

Mr Balls might need a massage after gorging himself at one of two cafes specially built in the new offices, or perhaps if he bumps into the black granite surface tops in the kitchen areas. 

Possibly Mr Balls might need massage after tripping on the grand staircase made from glass and surgical steel which cost several hundred thousand pounds.

The revelations around the luxury offices and the Muslim prayer room come the week after Mr Balls announced massive cutbacks in the Government’s education budget which could see up to 3,000 teachers lose their jobs.

Mark Wallace, of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, was quoted in the media as saying that it was “appalling that with taxpayers struggling to make ends meet, record national debt and children leaving school unable to read, these bureaucrats have been splashing our cash on luxury offices.

“The first things that need to be cut are the excessive perks and lavish furnishings for which ministers use our taxes.”

Of more importance, however, is the fact that Mr Balls and his cronies specifically make plans for the Muslim area and not for any other specific religion.

This has to be one of the clearest indicators yet of the extent to which the Government is encouraging the colonisation of Britain by Islam.

The Conservative Party also studiously avoids discussing the invasion of this country by Islamic hordes and boasts several Muslims in its shadow cabinet.

Voters concerned about the colonisation of Britain will therefore find no succour in the Tories.

The British National Party has started moves to copyright its political slogans after the Labour Party stole the BNP-origin term “Operation Fightback,” Nick Griffin MEP has announced.

Speaking to BNP News after Labour unveiled its “Operation Fightback” banner at its flop conference this weekend, Mr Griffin said this blatant theft was the second time that the Government had used a BNP phraseology.

“Last year we saw Gordon Brown use the slogan ‘British jobs for British workers’ at a Labour conference,” Mr Griffin said.

“Enough is enough; the BNP is now going to start copyrighting its slogans to prevent the ideologically-bankrupt thieves at Labour HQ from using our ideas,” he said.

‘Operation Fightback’ is a slogan that the BNP has been using since before the European elections in June this year. The BNP program has seen mass mobilisation by supporters objecting to lies told about the party in the media which has resulted in several successful Press Complaints Commission rulings and withdrawal statements being published by several newspapers.

“What makes matters worse is the fact that Labour genuinely does not believe any of the slogans which it uses,” continued Mr Griffin. “The ‘British jobs’ one, for example, was an outright lie as Mr Brown knows very well that the European Union freedom of movement regulations prevent the Government from reserving jobs for British nationals.”

The half-empty hall at the Labour conference also reflected the air of desperation which marked Labour’s annual meeting. That party is on the point of a massive implosion with backbenchers openly dismissing Mr Brown as a “dead man walking” and pretenders to the throne already jostling for position in the hope of kicking out what has clearly become one of the most hopeless British Prime Ministers ever.

Labour’s desperation was also revealed with ‘Lord’ Peter Mandelson declaring last week that he would be prepared to take up a post under a Tory administration if his party lost the next election.

Although commentary on Mr Mandelson’s confession focussed on the fact that he was in effect admitting defeat, the reality is that there is so little difference between Labour and the Tories that it would make almost no change for him.

The European Union’s carbon policy will almost certainly plunge Britain into a severe power generation shortage and needs to be reversed, says the British National Party’s energy spokesman.

Professional engineer and industry expert Mr Brinsley Jenkins told BNP News that the “avoidable catastrophe” of blackouts in Britain had been known for some time.

“All Government Ministers have been aware of this; they are advised on a weekly basis by experts on the requirements and consequences of all policies,” Mr Jenkins said.

“One has to ask the question why has this situation been reached?  If they knew, then it has to be deliberate,” he said.

The European Union has decreed that all of Britain’s coal-fired power plants must be closed down within the next six years.

“With many Marxist disciples in Government it should not be a surprise. The destruction of the old order has been their plan for many years,” he said, adding that it was “now too late to stop rolling power cuts.

“Every year’s delay merely exacerbates our difficulties. Unless we have a cheap generating supply, the National Grid is going to be redundant.

“With 28 percent transmission losses, the costs are enormous and not sustainable.  Are we moving towards a time when power is only available locally as it was prior to the Second World War?”

Mr Brinsley said the BNP would immediately invest in clean-burn coal-powered generation. “Five new plants need building now, close to where power is required,” he said.

“Nuclear power needs to be reconsidered urgently, and the cutting-edge, intrinsically-safe, fast-breeder nuclear stations, but the time scale involved puts that many years into the future.

“Renewable energy devices need to be built and evaluated. We could have a bright future, but only with pragmatic policies put in place by a British Government, and not the unelected EU commissars,” Mr Jenkins said.

Turning to the topic of ‘global warming’, Mr Jenkins said it was interesting how this had been morphed into ‘climate change’.

“Antarctic ice core samples have been used to support this theory. However, analysis of these samples has shown that previous temperature rises preceded that of the carbon scare by 80 years.

“If carbon had been a cause, it had to be before not afterwards. Cause and effect may not be reversed as a proof,” Mr Jenkins said.

“Talk of carbon trading is just a red herring and is not linked to the very real and important issues of pollution control and nature conversation, which must receive high priority by any government seeking to improve living conditions,” he concluded.

* A BNP government will develop alternative transport fuels such as bio-diesel and hydrogen and investigate the viability of renewable energy sources such as off-shore wind farms, wave, tidal and solar energy.

The British National Party in Canterbury will have distributed more than 250,000 leaflets in the local area before the end of the year, the latest branch meeting in that town was told.

Speaking before a packed meeting this week, Kent Sub-Regional Organiser David Price revealed that the branch activists had already distributed more than 150,000 leaflets since the beginning of the year and were on course to reach the 250,000 goal before year’s end.

The incredible achievement is the result of the energy and drive which Mr Price and his highly motivated team of activists have put in, working every second Saturday and odd days at short notice as well.

At the same meeting, Thanet and the East Kent organiser Dennis Whiting revealed that more than 70 people had joined up in the past few months and that the party was financially still firmly in the black despite the heavy demands of the European elections.

The final speaker was Councillor Mark Burke, deputy regional organiser for the South East and parliamentary candidate for Bracknell, who spoke on various matters to do with the recent success in the Euros, the current financial crisis as well as the importance of good relations with the media.

Cllr Burke stressed that whilst national papers often portrayed much the same message as the party on such matters as immigration, it was local papers and radio that had the greatest effect on the public.

“To avoid or isolate ourselves from them was to make the task in hand much harder,” Cllr Burke said. “All efforts should be made to develop good working relations with the local media. This can be to the advantage of any group and must become a greater priority, especially with local elections in mind,” he said.

Cllr Burke also referred to the issue of ethnic minorities being admitted to the party. He said that such changes would not mean a 180 degree change of principle. “Instead, it will ensure greater opportunity for the party to put across its case at all levels whilst greatly reducing the nature of the attack against it.”

He pointed out that very few minorities would actually join and those who did would be expected to toe the party line on all matters. “However, the opportunities presented by such a move may well outweigh any other factors,” he said.

“Possibly the time has come to reach out to the many highly respected members of the ethnic minorities who share the party’s views on issues such as law and order, education, the NHS and entanglements in foreign wars. This in turn will develop the potential for a dramatic improvement in media and local relations,” Cllr Burke said.

“The result will rebound on the ill-thought out and vindictive Labourite left moves against the BNP and will only be of advantage to us.”

He concluded by urging all present to participate in the increasingly successful leafleting operations and to look for opportunities to stand for election at both local and national level.

The meeting produced an outstanding collection in excess of £200 and the audience showed their appreciation to the two gentlemen making so much of this success happen, Mr Whiting and Mr Price.

Team Black Country British National Party spent yesterday campaigning in Cannock for an upcoming by-election, reports correspondent John Salvage.

Over 20 activists took part in the leafleting and canvassing of the Heath Hayes ward for candidate Shaun Grimsley. Supporters from Birmingham, Wolverhampton and the Black Country were directed by West Midlands regional organiser Alwyn Deacon.

“’This election campaign is drawing a fantastic response from members of the public, especially the elderly,” Mr Grimsley said. Most of the ward has now been canvassed and leafleted.

“It is important to keep fighting the local by-elections as it keeps the party in the public’s mind and continually builds upon our voter bases,” he added.

In what turned out to be an appropriate setting, the team photos were taken in front of a local war memorial in an area formerly known as Fiveways. Originally a farming and coal mining village, Fiveways was a booming town until the closure of the last mines in the 1960s.

Lincolnshire Coastal British National Party group has held two highly successful meetings within the last three weeks, raising more than £600 for local funds, reports organiser Robert Ashton.

“Coming only three weeks after the Lincolnshire Coastal Group’s late summer meeting, an additional activists’ meeting was held in rural Lincolnshire and proved to be a spectacular success, cementing the Coastal Group as the most progressive group in the area,” Mr Ashton said.

“At this extremely well attended meeting, I was able to report to the group that we had continued our expansion plans with record new membership levels,” he said. “Three new members joined on the night and the collection raised another £245. In addition, new leafleting teams have been created to cater for the record enquiry levels.”

Members from North Lincolnshire attended the latest meeting to discuss party developments in the local area. It was decided that cross county support would be provided when key elections are being held.

Financial pressure on the National Health Service has forced it to start prescribing cheaper generic “potentially harmful” drugs and to recruit additional Third World staff to replace British nurses who leave for better paid positions overseas.

New regulations which will be implemented next January have sparked health fears after reports revealed that patients could face what has been described as “life-threatening side-effects” when NHS dispensaries are forced to issue cheaper generic drugs.

The cutbacks are part of a general shortage of Government finance caused directly by the gross mismanagement of the economy by Gordon Brown.

More than £150 billion has been spent bailing out banks and tens of billions on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, leaving precious little for NHS shortfalls.

As a result, asthma, epilepsy, Parkinson’s, bipolar disorder and hypertension sufferers will soon be given prescription drugs based on generic, cheaper versions.

The new regulations will allow dispensaries to change prescriptions without having a doctor authorise the different drug. The move has been criticised by medical experts who have pointed out that asthma and epilepsy sufferers, in particular, are at increased risk from changed drugs.

The financial constraints have also contributed to the numbers of British nurses leaving for Australia or being unable to work in the profession because of the relatively low rate of pay.

Official figures showed that in 2007, almost 5,000 British nurses received offers to work in Australian hospitals that year. According to the Royal College of Nursing (RCN), the nurses had received “attractive salary offers.”

Furthermore, recent figures suggested that hundreds of newly-qualified nurses and midwives are struggling to find work in the NHS months after graduating.

A government census in 2007 found that almost a third of new graduate nurses were still unemployed some six months after qualifying. Of around 9,000 nurses who qualified between May and September 2006, nearly 3,000 were found to be without work in March 2007.

The census also indicated that over 50 percent of physiotherapy graduates had not yet found a job at that time.

Dr Peter Carter, of the RCN, told the BBC at the time that he was “hearing worrying stories from recently qualified nurses who are unable to get jobs because trusts are freezing entry level posts to save money.

“Not only is this a waste of taxpayers’ money but it is a waste of new and much needed nursing talent.”

This contrasts strongly with the announcement made this week by the Colchester NHS Trust that an additional 80 nurses from the Philippines are to be “fast tracked” through immigration procedures to work at Colchester General Hospital.

Fifteen nurses are currently having their visa applications speeded up so they can start work as soon as possible, the Trust said, adding that the foreign nurses were being recruited to fill “shortages.”

It is little wonder that there are “shortages” of skilled First World indigenous British nurses when the Government has a deliberate policy of underpaying frontline NHS personnel compared to what they can earn overseas.

The British National Party is fully committed to properly financing the NHS. This can easily be done once the wasteful expenditures such as the Middle Eastern wars, the banker bailouts, foreign aid and the immigration and asylum swindle are dispensed with.

The BNP will ensure that salaries for frontline NHS staff are of an acceptable level which will guarantee that British staff can be retained in the service.
