A BNP view on the Darlington result.
I received the following reaction to the Darlington by-election result and exchanges from Trevor Agnew which is quoted in full below:-
Quote
From David Davies
this is the first time that i am aware of that UKIP has fought a council seat in Darlington
It is in fact the third time that UKIP have fought an election in Darlington. The first was in 1999 when Trevor Agnew (now with the BNP) took 16.5% for UKIP in the local elections. The other was Jennifer Maile who took 4.5% approximately.
Behind all the bluster and wound licking, UKIP have the benefit of a media who love them. The BNP are done down by that same media at every opportunity.
UKIP have a whole host of celebrities to endorse their campaign. The BNP have none.
And on the subject of running recruitment drives, wasn't the recent Euro elections just that. Broadcasts, leaflets with UKIP contact details delivered to every home in the country.
We in the BNP have a contact in the local UKIP who informs us that up until the euro elections UKIP only had 3 members in the town - The candidate David Davies, Charlotte and a Doctor. So I suppose 2 out of 3 mucking in with the election isn't bad!
With all that UKIP has going for it & all that is thrown against the BNP, it is fair to say that UKIP were forced into last place by the BNP who overcame their handicap fair and square. How many more advantages does UKIP want?
To be fair though and putting tribal party politics to one side, the far right parties scored nearly 10% in the ward. I look forward to the day when both parties can pool their resources and fight an effective fight against our enemies.
