It all fits now, what happened to the BNP website at the election, but it was like watching a boxer recovering from an unforseen near knockout punch as the website crawled back into life again. Much is aired on Simon Bennet's treachery, but let's not forget the true patriotic party stalwarts who picked up the pieces and have got the BNP's website up and running again.
I cannot understand Bennet's actions.

I get the feeling that the more democratic structures that can be created within the party, the more the opportunistic hotheads can be identified, isolated and destroyed. Imagine elected regional committees being able to finger local rats, and an elected national executive being able to crush them - as well as being able to vet manifestos, constitutions, appointments, accounts, etc. This is by no means a criticism of the current leader, who has done more than anyone to make the party "mainstream" and one that I was happy to join. But if ordinary member representatives can stab opportunistic self-seekers like Butler in the back, then the leadership would have less to worry about in future.

Anyone who employs Simon Bennett in any category whatsoever, following his attempt to destroy the BNP by sabotaging its website in the run up to May's General election, is guilty of severely flawed judgement at best and more probable, of betraying the British people at worst. I can only conclude that this is the work of deranged people, probably Lib/Lab/Con Establishment sleepers. The only other alternative is that unbalanced people have deliberately set out to destroy Britain's best and only hope, the BNP, in order to satisfy a twisted sense of personal revenge, betraying their country's hopes and aspirations in the process. After a difference of opinions with the leadership, to bow out with grace would have been the honourable thing to do. These people have been washing their dirty linen in public for far too long. It's well past time they vanished into the obscurity where they so obviously belong.

I don't know Butler, Bennett or any of his supporters but from their actions I can see that they are damaging the BNP, causing division and enmity, and acting in a dishonourable, anti-democratic way! To sabotage Richard Barnbrook's blog in this way is contemptible, and would suggest Butler if he knows about it, and his crew are dishonourable, and he would not be fit to lead the party, and if responsible should pull-out of the leadership challenge!

As somebody who is not a BNP member, however i am a supporter who donates regularly, what attracted me to the BNP was the common-sense policies, united leadership and determination of Nick Griffin and many members to reform, progress, build a strong Nationalist movement, and take our fight to win our country back to the Globalist/Marxist enemies of our nation. This is what's important, bringing our message to the british people and winning our country back, not all this bickering and in-fighting.

All this fighting amongst ourselves is manna from heaven for our enemies, and does not look good to the general british public either, it must end.

Members bringing the party into disrepute and sowing division should be expelled, if they are reds let's smoke them out, but after the blood-letting we must unite!

We must unite as Nationalists to convince a brain-washed public of our integrity and honourable purpose, and any true nationalist would put aside ego or personal difference to concentrate on the only fight that matters and that is the one for our culture and country, for our children and grandchildren's sake!

I have, for some time now (since the time, approximately when Simon Bennet departed) my BNP e-mails have been stopped by my ISP's (NTL/Virgin) spam fliter
- the only way in which I can receive them is by forwarding them from the ISP's spam box by lebelling them 'Not Spam' - I wonder if anyonelse is having this problem ?

I don’t really understand how you can turn on good people you’ve spent years with. There are some individuals within the party I dislike, but I put my country, my culture and my future way above one human being that I disagree with on a personality level.

There is no doubt that Richard Barnbrook is of good, healthy family stock. Long may he be, a thorn in the side of the London Assembly!

... and Bennett won't be the last we see of that kind of thing.

The more we grow, the more we will have dedicated and clever people trying to put a spanner in our spokes.

Given recent events, I find it jaw dropping that Mr Butler would employ Mr Bennett as his webmaster. I would urge Mr Butler to refute, on this page, that he did so.

Squabbles like this are exactly what our enemies would hope to engineer. We must not make it easier for them.

It looks like the reds are getting together to try to destroy this party from within. Butler has shown his true colours by teaming up with Bennett the darling of the UAF. Rather than have these traitors running for leader of the party they should be turfed out on their ear. However we may be able to smoke out some more reds by allowing them to vote for Butler and then we can expel the lot.

i email him every day about items of news and how he's unable to cope, asking him if he's really up to the job, i also send attachments...recent ones were ..el megrahi..damien green..caroline spelman..michael gove..karzai..tim yeo..and his buddy clegg ..not to forget the attachment of a couple of burka wearing muslim things...with snippets of the stories to all attachments..i ask him if he's in control because he's only got 5yrs and then that's it........ davidcameron@conservatives.com

If Mr Barnbrook's site has been deliberately sabotaged by the traitor Bennett with Mr Butler's full knowledge, then it is clear to me that Mr Butler should withdraw his name as a candidate for Party leadership: because he has clearly shown that he NOT qualified to lead. We in the BNP need leaders with a sense of ethics and anyone else should join the Marxists and progressives where they will be at home.

It's just sad that we all can't work together for the good of the Party and the Country!

"This sort of bad play is slightly underhand" says Richard Barnbrook -- this has to be for me the best example of English understatement.....
Unable for some reason to access this website last week, I tried to get in via Google and found myself directed to "BNP" sites which opined that Bennett and Butler might possibly be seen as somewhat questionable because of wrecking this site just before the General Election. But really they are honest and upright chaps who only wish the best for the Party, it said. Really? I was astounded and even more so when I saw that Butler is actually standing for Chairman!!
On another site, I read about Bennett and Peter Mullins and the ABEX scam.
I am a Celt, so don't altogether understand English tolerance for people who are no more than traitors, thieves, incompetents and bar-room drunks and con-men.
Personally I hope Nick Griffin wins by a landslide. That is as far as I get with "tolerance" for Bennett, Mullins, and Butler etc.

I do not know this Eddy Butler, have never seen or heard him but I can tell from his recent sabotaging and underhanded actions just what sort of man he is. Actions speak louder than words.
I do not qualify for a vote (yet) but my support, thanks and best wishes go to Nick Griffin. I stood next to him some 18 months ago at my first BNP outing - a protest outside Burnley police station - and realised that he really does care about those things important to us, not just shambolic gestures like all the self-serving, greedy, opposition politicians.

If someone employed a person who had already been disgraced, I would find their motives questionable. The least Mr Butler should do is make a formal public apology and step down as a candidate.
I find this sort of practice dispicable. He may have had the freedom to choose who designs his web page but should also be held accountable for the actions of those he employs. Anything less would only serve to prove that the corruption within the Lib/Lab/Con ranks doesn't end there. We should ensure that anything that may besmirch the name of BNP is stamped on hard to prove that this party is not corrupt like all the others.
Please don't give the Lib/Lab/Con hydra any more ammunition to discredit this party.

Mr Barnbrook, keep up the fight, and expose these people for what they are, you'll win in the end. However, is there not laws that can stop this kind of behaviour, can they not be sued for deliberately disrupting a legitamate website? Their behaviour exposes their character fully, therefore, when people come to vote they will rethink whom they vote for. They are a disgrace that they only have this kind of behaviour to resort to, to try and gain votes. They won't of course for people will see them for what they are. Poor uneducated, miserable beings who have nothing better to do, cannot fight fairly, cleanly, and debate sensibly. This alone shows the calabre of these people, now I ask you, in all sense who would vote for any of them? You have my support Mr Barnbrook, you have conducted yourself correctly, with head held high, and that's what we want in politics today, not corrupt individuals who think they are above the law. The public will understand this and accordingly you will succeed, they won't.

Say what you will about Richard but one thing that comes across from watching all
the BNP footage ect is that that guy seems up front and honest!

why is this person allowed anywhere near our party after what he did at the election.
A monumental mistake by Mr Butler and could have cost him alot of votes.
I wont even read what he has to say considering his choice fo allies

if we dont have enough of a fight on our hands saving our own culture and people, we certainly do not want internal espionage and corruption. i am not sure why we are having the vote. it does not seem the right time. one of my comments would not be printed because of its byass nature towards someone. it worries me that these traitors in this country who hate the english, (well they must do must nt they)and are targeting our party must dealt with . i hope the voters get candidates with true intentions. i know that all of you trying to hurt the party will fail. the bnp feeling is too strong and i also feel there are members of this party more than capable of fighting off this corruption and leading us on to a powerful party where people will start to realise we are the only party to keep Britain British, and England as England should be.

I really don't think this dirty trick by Simon Bennett will gain many supporters for Butler.

now now lets not stoop to the level of the lib lab con

i am satisfied who i want to be leader and have no complaints as this party has come a long way...as a tradesman you can always get other labourers and when i was running my own building show, i got rid of back stabbers because they hold you back, go forward as you are, it's a great party, ask the idiots to leave, we can all see through them, if you haven't got the literacy or speech talent, do the party a bit of good by doing what your good at..not making a mock of us in the eyes of the opposition

Look, this matter is very serious and it must be put right. It is vital that all contenders for the position of Party Leader get together in a meeting and agree on the proper way to go forward. We simply must be united as a Party and we must be able to set aside personal ambition. I would go further. This is no time to abandon Nick Griffin and we should halt this idiotic quest for a new leader for at least two years. Let us deal with our real enemies -- that rat Phillips, the socialists, Searchlight and the "progressives" -- in that order.

A shame people have to resort to tactics like that.

Although I would not vote for Butler... The fact he is employing Bennett... Somebody who sabotaged the website before the election, resulting in many more lost deposits than necessary, is making it even more certain he will not get my vote.

is a dirty business - you have to be careful who you trust...but if you want real dirt just look at Mandelson's memoirs
