BNP leader Nick Griffin declared bankrupt but will stand again in Euro elections (and is writing a leaflet on dealing with debt!)
- Earns a salary of £76,000 as an MEP plus generous Brussels allowances
- Owes £120,000 to solicitors hired to fight European Commission, court told
- Insists it will not stop him standing in Euro elections in May
He brushed aside the idea that his financial problems would end his political career and revealed he is writing a booklet on dealing with debts.
BNP leader Nick Griffin has been declared
bankrupt but insists he will stand for election to the European
Parliament again in May
As an MEP Mr Griffin enjoys a basic salary of around £76,000, plus extra basic allowances worth £46,000 with more for travel and accommodation.
A listing at the Insolvency Service showed Mr Griffin was declared bankrupt at Welshpool and Newtown County Court yesterday.
The BNP said that Mr Griffin had run up debts of £120,000 to solicitors Gilbert Davies & Partners, which represented him in the early stages of legal action against the European Commission.
He had offered to repay 42p for every pound he owed to all his creditors but this was rejected by the courts.
Mr Griffin was elected for the North West region of England in 2009
Politicians declared bankrupt used to be barred from seeking election again, but the rules were changed in 2002 meaning it no longer prevents someone from being an MP or MEP, or standing for election.
In a statement Mr Griffin said: 'This order will not prevent me fighting for the interests of the British people or leading the British National Party to a fresh round of electoral victories.
'It’s of no political significance whatsoever. I will take whatever is thrown at me and deal with it.
'I champion the right of the British people to their land and I will never surrender.
'On a practical note, I am now much better able to advise and help the huge numbers of decent ordinary folk in my constituency who have financial difficulties of their own.
'I will be producing an advice booklet on dealing with debt very shortly and can speak from personal experience rather than from an ivory tower in Brussels.'
Mr Griffin will be automatically discharged from bankruptcy in one year, on January 2 2015, in accordance with the Insolvency Act. He was elected for the North West region of England in 2009.
Advice published by the Electoral Commission said bankruptcy in itself does not bar someone from being a member of the European Parliament or standing for election.
Restrictions are only triggered if an individual is made subject to a bankruptcy restrictions order or debt relief restrictions order.
The Insolvency Service said such orders had not been made in Mr Griffin's case.

Ex- BNP Treasurer Mike Newlands used to use the quote often about Griffin being "the once and future bankrupt".
How perceptive!
Yet another nail driven into nationalisms coffin by Gri££in.
Gri££ins useful idiot in Sheffield has written on VNN that this story is all lies.
If he had a brain, I wonder how he feels now?
Gri££in is morally bankrupt.
Miss Badpenny.
That's twice the fat bastard has gone bust.
Who want's share's in the Gri££in family business?
Should true White-race nationalists achieve government power, the bloated one-eyed bag of MI5-controlled treasonous jooshit, Gri££in, and his jooboy MI5 controller will be sone of the first crypto jooz who'll swing for high treason and high crimes against the indigenous English people - the only people now still BNP members are deadbeats and morons witlessly shovelling their money into Gri££in's hidden off-shore Family Trust accounts already overflowing with countless Wills Gri££in fooled testators into leaving to him, in the belief the money/assests were for the benefit of the BNP - there are none so stupidily deaf and blind as those who refuse listening to truth and unable recognising obvious boiler-house scams such as Gri££in has conducting with the full knowledge and approval of the United Kingdom government, it's security agencies and the police.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Depends in what context you mean "of MI5 fame" - are you suggesting I'm an M15 stooge or famed for my well-documented history of holding MI5 in contempt? - no too sure about "fame" - I'll go along with 'notorious' - for your information my home internet access has been continually blocked since around 17th December 2012 to the present date - I'm subjexted to the Tempora program and all my postings are from another natiolist internet service elsewhere from my home - hence my sporadic postings.
Fly On The Wall
Fly on the Wall is a real live Walter Mitty he mistake's Gay Lefties looking for his favour's for Mi5 Spook's the only thing that's not blocked is his bomb hatch one wonder's what hold's the turd's back, his arse retention muscle's must be well flogged.
