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.
