It’s the first time the Party has ever

County Council and a number of days
of action have been organised to pro-

The first one of these took place in
Malton and Pickering where thousands
of leaflets were delivered both door to

the two towns, as well as numerous
copies of Freedom being sold.
The BNP activists were well received
and a number of enquiries gained.
Further activities are planned in the

BNP MAKING THE NEWS VOICE OF FREEDOM - ISSUE No.102

BNP in Exeter showing support for the Immingham workers

British jobs for


British workers
T
by Mike Turner
HERE WAS a very positive
response to the first ever
BNP table top sale in Exeter
City Centre held on the morn-
ing of Saturday 31st January.
Held in support of the British
construction workers at the
Immingham refinery, the eleven
BNP activists running the stall
created a lot of local interest.
Many copies of Freedom were
sold and a vast quantity of leaf-
lets were handed out. On numer-
ous occasions those buying the
newspaper gave a pound for the
60p cover price, telling the BNP
sellers to keep the change.
The most popular issue had
the “Safeguarding British Jobs”
headline, and even though it was
November’s issue it still sold like
hotcakes.
There were also a couple of
homemade posters on show
detailing recent BNP election
results. These created a lot of
interest as most of the Exeter
public were oblivious to the
progress the Party has made in
recent local council contests.

It is only the BNP that says
