BNP fined again - late accounts again !
So the accounts are late yet again. Another year, another fine, it seems. But this isn't the horrible Government attacking us, it's the state of the BNP under Nick Griffins leadership.
Are you satisfied that once again, the members are having to 'stump up' for gross incompetence ?
Queue another letter begging for funds from HQ !
-----------------------------------------------
Regulatory Action
The British National Party and the party’s Regional Accounting Unit were both granted an extension to the deadline for submitting their statements of accounts. Both have failed to deliver their accounts within the extended deadline so the party will be fined a minimum of £500 and the accounting unit will be fined a minimum £100, this figure will increase if the accounts are more than three months late.
Peter Wardle Chief Executive of the Electoral Commission said:
“Political parties play a crucial part in our democracy. But, now more than ever, voters need to be confident that party funding is transparent and that parties will comply with the law.
“While we are disappointed that the British National Party and its accounting unit have failed to submit their accounts on time, I’m glad to see that the majority of the large parties and accounting units have understood the need to ensure their accounts are submitted to us by the deadline set. Transparency about party finances is one of the key factors that can help public confidence in politics.”
In May, the Commission published the financial accounts of 281 political parties and 483 accounting units whose gross income and total expenditure were each £250,000 or less. Accounting units with income and expenditure that are both £25,000 or under are not required to submit their accounts.
The Commission has published a comparison of the parties’ gross annual income and total expenditure from 2003 to 2008. This is available on our website.
The Commission is currently reviewing all the accounts submitted. Where this review suggests that there may have been any breaches of the law we will raise this with the parties and where necessary use our regulatory powers.

Any bets on that Gri££in will blame Jenny Noble for this? I can already see the same old tired lies sprouting from Welshpool, : "She was a Searchlight spy out to disrupt us, she's MI5 etc, etc."
Gri££in is a complete and utter fraud, when are the membership going to wake up?
I wonder what 'great' organisational changes this fat incompetent wanker Hannam is refering too? Why wasn't this uselees tosspot doing the accounts books rather than speaking up for Gri££in at branch meetings hundreds of miles from where he lives? What an insult!
"The British National Party is undergoing great organisational changes following the Euro election victories, said party deputy treasurer David Hannam.
Mr. Hannam also explained how the finances surrounding the two new BNP Members of the European Parliament worked. There are guidelines, he said, how grants can be spent, and any donations towards good causes will come out of the two MEPs’ personal pockets rather than formal expenses."
Jenny Noble is a searchlight snitcher.
I don't know what the truth is behind this fraud story, but one thing I do know is Dawson is a complete and utter Griffinite brown nose.

I see the BNP lost the Brinsley by-election yesterday, it was Sadie Graham's old seat. The BNP put up as the candidate that Griffinite bitch Nina Brown, the same woman who Sadie considered a friend and left her door key with, the same key that Brown let Griffin's goons into Sadie's home with. Who needs enemies when you have frinds like that?

im getting pissed off with all the begging emails,the latest one is "get your tickets before august 7th as there going like hotcakes" some years ago i would have believed it but the only way i can read it is :
were in the shit and harldly sold any tickets for RWB come on you dhimmi's get your wallets out as nick needs a new barn extension
if hannam was any good why is he not treasurer? he is completely useless why don't they sack him?
I send greetings from my dear nephew Purple Aki. His release from confinement is only a matter of weeks away, his message to you all is "To make sure all good men and women descend on Beatles Ville aka Liverpool Magistrates Court on the 5th of August at 9-30am (No Batty Boys) this is for a show of solidarity for Peter Tierney a good Nationalist who has had da bone of da evil Chief Bernard Hogan Howe pointed at him (Never trust a man in blue with a double barrelled name). A good turn out in support of Peter will surely drive de evil away. This is important because you could be de next victim of Chief Bernard Hogan Howe's voodoo politics.

Gentlemen please.
The effective running of the BNP from Griffin's viewpoint requires people who are useless or expendable if otherwise.
Nothing new to see here. Move along now.
Mr Griffin is a very important man with a lot of money to look after.
Hang on, when they were late previously, you all slagged Walker, said he should be sacked etc. So they sacked him, brought in Noble, and they are still late. But you don't slag Noble, I'm confused.
The best way to defeat the BNP is for everyone to vote for their candidates so that we can see how bad they are.

Classic Israeli Subterfuge
When Israel is Wrong, attack the Victims.
Israel is all a dither because people are angry and outraged at the litany of Zionist rip offs, cheats, liars, spies, money laundering, scam artists, paid for politicians and theft perpetuated around the globe at the hands of none other than "Zionists" working for Israel. And as totally predicted, they fall on the never ending "Pity Party" call of "Anti-Semitism"

Am I the only one to notice that the BNP seems to get a new Treasurer every year, just in time for Griffin to blame the sacked treasurer for the late accounts?
The BNP's management strategy has been clear for years.
1. A huge turnover of members so hardly anyone knows what goes on
2. Explain the turnover as Searchlight spies being ejected
3. Satisfy the appetite for entertainmenta and social contact on the part of the isolated and those needing to vent their anger about Britain
4. Provide small positions for people who'd never get any position elsewhere but who then feel important
5. Against this background few will ask about the money. It seems impolite when you've only just joined
6. Junk any branch looking to develop if it can be done not too obviously to other areas. Explain as clearing out Searchlight spies
7. Encourage the idea that any dissatisfaction not the fault of Searchlight spies is caused by teething troubles in a fast developing organisation. Everything about to be put right.
8. Keep repeating the cycle
A similar scenario operates in many cults

That crooked conman Jim Dowson has completely seduced Griffin with all his big talk about money making scams and 'professional' organisation strategies etc. Dowson now controls all the BNP's bank accounts with his non BNP staff including one of his partners in crime John Thompson. Dowson is running a number of illegal scams over there in Ulster including a 'charity' that is not registered with the Charity Commission. Under the law every charity must be registered and have their books checked once a year, this evidentially doesn't happen with Dowson, he also runs a number of dodgy companies. Dowson has no loyalty to the BNP, he has even admitted it in at least two newspaper articles when speaking to the press : Jim Dowson has denied that he is a far-right sympathiser, claiming to be a Christian Socialist. On 28th of October 2007, he told The Observer : “I find the whole of the right-wing utterly ridiculous”. and a similar quote in the Catholic Universe 27 March 2007. I noticed the last begging letter sent out from Belfast had a second class stamp stuck over the pre-paid mark, has the Royal Mail stopped their contract? Do they owe money? It's obvious that the BNP is bankrupt, the only person who made money from the Euro elections was Dowson. A thorough investigation is needed into this amoral crook's dealings and his exposure to the BNP membership?
The Broxtowe Borough Council by-election for Brinsley ward results: John Booth (Conservative) 416; Nina Brown (BNP) 288; Stuart Hosker (Liberal Democrat) 224; Ed Jacobs (Labour) 68 and Keith Marriott (UKIP) 21.
This was a unnecessary election, Sadie was doing a great job, the party had the cheek to put up the treacherous Nina Brown as the candidate. I don't think the truth about the leaked membership list will ever come out. All I know is Sadie & Matt had nothing to do with it. Poor Matt has now suffered a mental breakdown over the affair, he was completely loyal to the BNP and it's leadership until things started to unravel. Griffin's attack dogs and smearers have done their dirty work, I hope these unscrupulous bastards are proud of themselves?
Matt Single was causing trouble 8 years ago. He drove Big Jim out by telling everyone he was 'dodgy'
Matt didn't even come from Basildon, why was he organiser? Matt was chasing bits of skirt everywhere, Shadie Graham was just one on a list.
Matt is a plonker, he believed rumors without any proof and now he's paying for it.
groups are being urged to pop up all over the place ? for the simple reason put in an organiser and a fund holder.once they are up and running central accounts raid the money usually taking the new formed group overdrawn which causes all kinds of accusations.luckily some new formed groups have clocked this and are now running independant and want no more to do with corruption and we thought labour were bad ?
Watch this cynical Griffin damage limitation ploy the day before all political parties had their accounts published (except one!), see Fat Boy Hannam lie through his teeth: " what I do keeps us legal." What a joke, he should be helping out with the audit not recording this stupid video for Griffin and the idiots in the membership who don't know what's going on. Hannam admits is no longer involved in the bankrupt GWR. What has our new accountant Ulsterman John Thompson been up to. Is he really an accountant?

Occupid Britain I don't know what you are saying is true about your experiences with Matt Single, but I always found him to be a decent, hard working activist for the BNP, he spoke very well when invited as a guest speaker to branch meetings and was exceptionally good and professional at working within our security team and conducted himself in a civilised manner. Probably his only let down was trusting that swine Griffin.
'exceptionally good and professional'
Exactly the type of person the BNP does not want except to to be used in the short-term. Usually the victims of this sort of organisation cannot believe what has been done to them.

Who is Joe Owens a tea cup reader?
what on earth is wrong with you guys? under the midas/dowson era of only 18 months the party has exploded in wealth , membership and professionalism not to mention 2 MEPS. i have worked in industry with mr dowson and i can assure you he has no dealings with dodgy companies nor dose he flout the law regarding the charities and societies he supports,indeed he is on the board of several societies and charitble groups in ni(they do not show up on the english charities reg because ni is under a different system and due to historical reasons personal details are not let into public domain. but his dealing are completely beyond reproach. may i remind all the malcontents that mr dowson has always been a true blue patriot a staunch unionist and devout protestant,as well as being a senior partner with a firm that has raised 10 s of millions for its clients. in 15 months he will be back in private industry and i bet he will be glad. getting the BNP on its feet has given him nothing but grief but he did it because he was fed up with the way english patriots were being treated and it was obvious they did not have anybody with the skills or money to sort the party out and as a deeply patriotic man he took a decision (despite advice from his partners not to) to give three years to the cause or the bnp.it is vile to suggest that he is a crook and if you have anf moral fibre say it publicly in your own name and have it out in front of open court. no wonder british nationalism is in such a state, small people with even smaller minds. jim will be well rid of most of you.
4 people in west midland branch's have now quite because of being stabbed in the back by gri££in. all because they dared speak the truth, so much for democracy? join the nf.
If Jim Dowson is so good, how come the BNP is skint, even after all these begging letters sent out nearly every day ?
skint? the party has just fought the biggest election campaign in its history,only 8 weeks ago and unlike the lab/con the bnp now has no huge debts and is in profit for a change. being skint at present with no debts is surely a fine position to be in. i bet many other political players would give thier right arm to be in the bnps position financialy .mr dowson will leave the party in a strong and secure position of that i have no doubt. remember only one year ago the bnp was a small cottage industry on the brink of collapse, now the party has the means and equipement to play with the big boys, and oh yes 2 MEPS. SKINT AFTER AN ELERCTION...GROW UP, PLEASE.

The BNP's leader is getting a big salary yes. Meanwhile the BNP is essentially one man's property with arbitrary expulsions and dubious finances.
If you think an outfit like that is a contender for power you need to grow up. The big parties have many faults but they are not run like the BNP. The communist left is and look for far they've got
Oh and how do you know what debts there are?
“Remember only one year ago the BNP was a small cottage industry on the brink of collapse, now the party has the means and equipment to play with the big boys.”
Now that is an interesting assessment of the state of the BNP a year ago, after eight years of Nick’s brilliant leadership, but, no, here and now you don’t have “the means and equipment to play with the big boys.”
Jim Dowson is making some of his office space and equipment available to you . . . at a price (in the case of his (not your) “truth truck” a high one).
As for your current financial position, well, nobody knows, since Gri££in cannot even produce last year’s accounts after a time extension.
I would hazzard an educated guess that Gri££in and 5IMon are engaged in frenetic negotiations with Silver & Co., in an effort to dissuade the auditors from qualifying the BNP’s accounts in too embarrassing a way. Time will tell (and, quite possibly, another fine).
mr griffin and the party employed a person to look after the books, she was indeed removed in april 2009 so she should have had the 2008 accounts DONE. they were not! that is why in spring 2009 a professional accountant was hired,but no pro will stand over someone elses 'work' surely its not griffins fault if people mislead regarding thier abilities and fail to perform. why not critisize the person who was paid by the members to keep the books in order ? why is griffin getting it again for something he had no imput in? 2 MEPS,4 OFFICES, FULL TIME STAFF,IT AND TELECOM SYSTEMS,MAIL AND PRINT MACHINERY ALL BOUGHT AND PAID FOR! surely even the most ardent griffin haters must see all this, maybe thats the problem? the BNP will no doubt continue to grow and those who cannot or will not 'step up' will be left to wander the bloggs, ranting and moaning. but in the real world the party will simply go on to bigger things.
'mr griffin and the party employed a person to look after the books, she was indeed removed in april 2009 so she should have had the 2008 accounts DONE. they were not! that is why in spring 2009 a professional accountant was hired'
Really. How come there was no professional accountant already in place? The income has been what half a million for years and NO PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTANT in a party filled with professional people we hear and boasting about professionalism.
We will be happy to say 'told you so' later on.
It has been stated that this is not NG's fault etc he was let down etc. But every year this happens, and every year there is total silence from the party about this appalling state of affairs. The membership are kept in the dark, and not a squeek appears about this on the BNP members forum.
'It has been stated that this is not NG's fault etc he was let down etc. But every year this happens, and every year there is total silence from the party'
Let's see Darby lasted about three months so the latest treasurer can expect to be rubbished around March next year if he lasts that long. You can set your clocks by it!
Gri££in has such bad luck with money.
ask the irish pro-lifers why dowson was happy to take their money on one proviso: he didn;t raise funds in ireland.
he then set up a paper org in eire to... raise funds!
he shit on the irish for money.

i thought dowsons outfit oporated in ireland, north and south. the british religious papers are full of irish pro-life begging ads so why shouldnt his group return the favour? free market and all that! i think you will find that the agreement to stay out of each others 'patch' was broken by our friends from the emerald isle. far from being a 'paper org dowsons fro-life outfit is one of the largest in the world with branches in europe, africa, israel and the east. like or hate him he is good, when he leaves the party set up who will we blame then? it is a problem.
i have heard the membership is now apprx 15000 up from 9000 last year?
anybody now the truth?
Lets face it folks dowson is a successful businessman period, all this talk about him being dodgy, crooked and a fake holy man is simply embarrassing. He has been a controversial figure for 20 years and his business interests and his charitable work has been scrutinized be all-unsundry and he IS as clean as a whistle, he was once a trainee minister with a scottish denomination (failed to make it,who knows)
Now, he may be deviously motivated, mi5, a terrorist or even a liberal but his businesses are successful and he is on the board of several charities, societies and community groups. He is even a trustee with a PEACE AND RECONCILLIATION GROUP IN IRELAND!!! .
It is rumoured that he finances and controls the countries biggest ‘rat run’ from London to Glasgow, Belfast and Dublin hiding pregnant illegal immigrants mainly from Africa (he even had a Ugandan women hiding in one of his houses until she gave birth).
We are missing the point with mr dowson, its not a money thing with him, he already has plenty, so what is it? He also for sure runs a shadowy anti gay group called STOP THE PARADE COALITION.
ONE MAN MANY CAUSES..WHY
'i have heard the membership is now apprx 15000 up from 9000 last year?
anybody now the truth?'
You'll never know. One spin after another. If someone does not renew how long is he counted as a still member?
Another begging letter from BNP this morning.
Lets see Griffin and Brons on 65K a year. Brons recently retired after being a college lecturer so he must also have a good pension. Griffin of course is also on 25k a year as party leader - total 90K a year. He only gives a pathetic 8% to local good causes - but none to the BNP.
And he has the nerve to beg me for money.

How do you know what he gives? Are there audited accounts?
Oh where are the BNP's accounts by the way.
That Matt Single always worried me a bit, although he was a very good speaker he knew far to much about 'military things' and designs etc, he had another side to him I'm sure. Nick must have got rid of him for good reason.
