Comment against MP's in 1653 - Oliver Cromwell
"It is high time for Me to put an End to your Sitting in this Place, which you have dishonoured by your Contempt of all Virtue, and defiled by your Practice of every Vice; Ye are a factious Crew and Enemies of all good Government; Ye are a Pack of mercenary Wretches and would, like Esau, Sell your Country for a Mess of Pottage; and like Judas, betray your God for a few Pieces of Money; Is there a single Virtue now remaining amongst you?
Is there one Vice that you do not possess?
Ye have no more Religion than my horse! Gold is your God: Which of you have not bartered your Conscience for Bribes?
Is there a Man amongst you that has the least care for the Good of the Commonwealth?
Ye sordid prostitutes!
Have you not defiled this Sacred Place, and turned the Lord's Temple into a Den of Thieves by your immoral Principles and wicked Practices?
Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole Nation.
Your Country therefore calls upon me to cleanse the Augean Stable, by putting a final Period to your Iniquitous Proceedings in this House, and which by God's Help, and the strength He has given Me, I now come to do. I command ye, therefore, upon the Peril of your Lives, to depart immediately out of this Place; Go! Get out! Make haste, ye Venal Slaves, begone!"
Oliver Cromwell 1653.

Such a principled man would soon have been expelled from the BNP.
Oliver was removed from the grave in Westminster Abbey and his corpse ceremonially hung at Tyburn.
Oliver Cromwell's statement to the then Parliament of 1653 applies exactley to to-days worthless,corrupt Partliament. I doubt if there is a single 'man' or 'woman' in the Parliament who is not corrupt and filled with lies. Nothing less than turning them out will suffice.

HOW RIGHT HE WAS.
Here is a quote from the bbc. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8052709.stm
'And the TaxPayers' Alliance has complained to police about former minister Elliot Morley, who claimed £16,000 for a mortgage he had already paid off'
Does'nt such a claim amount to fraud? Does'nt such fraud warrent investigation and carry a possible prison sentence? Don't hold your breath. I suspect that the police and the legal system are as corrupt as the politicians and that they all work hand in glove.
The police, I suspect, are more concerned with how these facts became public than vigerously investigating any possible fraud.

This post is just a little gossip and light entertainment. A digression from the apparent corruption of the British parliament.
Two N.W sorces have informed me that Duncan Warner has been removed as the N.W regional secretary. Apparently Duncan was visited by the new N.W regional Organiser who discovered that Duncan,the BNP N.W secretary, had not bothered to open any BNP mail for six months. Well this is most likely nothing more than incompetant idleness and indifference on Duncan's part. (if what I have been told is true.) On the other hand I believe Duncan's family have long standing extreme left wing views. A sister is , I understand, a SWP member. So there is just a chance that it is something more. (who knows?) Now let me see who made Duncan the organiser of Stockport BNP? (unconstitutionally) Oh yes, I remember, it was David Joines. Some BNP members have had their doubts about David. Now who was it that was considering making Duncan N.W regional organiser why back before Decenber 2007? Oh yes ,I remember , it was the BNP chairperson. And who made (or accepted) Duncan as regional secretary? The BNP chairperson. So who is a bad judge of character?
As I said just a little entertainmant.

Cromwell To Ebenezer Pratt of the Mulheim Synagogue in Amsterdam,
16th June 1647:
— “In return for financial support will advocate admission of Jews to England: This however impossible while Charles living. Charles cannot be executed without trial, adequate grounds for which do not at present exist. Therefore advise that Charles be assassinated, but will have nothing to do with arrangements for procuring an assassin, though willing to help in his escape.” —
To Oliver Cromwell From Ebenezer Pratt, 12th July 1647:
— “Will grant financial aid as soon as Charles removed and Jews admitted. Assassination too dangerous. Charles shall be given opportunity to escape: His recapture will make trial and execution possible. The support will be liberal, but useless to discuss terms until trial commences.” —
