The Branch has recieved the following message from the Hope Not Hate campaign:
"The BNP's campaign launch on Monday showed just how desperate they are to deliver a seat for Nick Griffin - they are willing to freely and openly tell out and out lies.But we can fight back with the truth - and I know that our supporters are more than able to match them leaflet by leaflet, phone call by phone call and pound for pound. We will beat their politics of hate and division. This weekend thousands of anti-racist campaigners will be doing just this - and I need you to stand alongside them. You can help do your bit at a local event near you:
The BNP have shown how they plan on running their campaign. At their campaign launch Nick Griffin said that Unison members have been telling residents at old people's homes that they'll be thrown out on the streets if they vote BNP. It's clearly a lie - but it just shows how far they are willing to go to snatch victory in this campaign. We can beat them - we just need to make a concerted effort. Just imagine how you'll feel waking up on June 5th to a BNP victory - in the knowledge that you could have stopped them. I'm giving you the opportunity to do this - you just have to take it.We've got 1.1 million leaflets to deliver this weekend - will you give me two hours of your time to deliver a few hundred? By working together I know that we'll make this ambitious target - sign up now:
Our campaign's success over the past months has been built by people accross the length and breadth of Britain who believe in a tolerant society. It's all been about people willing to invest whatever time and effort they can afford to stop the BNP and that's how we will close this campaign out. Our supporters, giving their time, to secure a victory for a just and fair society.
