Support Our Troops - Bring Our Boys Home

Week 1

Saturday brings week two of the Support Our Troops campaign.  Groups and branches from the Isle of Wight, Scotland, Wales, England and over to Northern Ireland, will all be out to to show that we are the only political party that cares about our military personnel. 

Prior to week one of the campaign, it was reported that 90 tabletops would be in action over the first couple of days.  Since then, news has come in that the number during week two has increased to 100.  New groups in Scotland will also be cutting their teeth during the coming weeks.  Who knows what the number will be when week three kicks-off.

Photographic evidence has also shown that lines of people have been drawn to our campaign by signing our Bring Our Boys Home petition.  Most branches and groups have each reported back that 100's of people have put their name to our campaign, and others have signed up members of the public on the spot. 

If you are reading this blog as an overseas reader, please go to the British National Party website and sign the online petition: Bring Our Boys Home Petition

Week 2

From official reports around the internet, it looks like week two of the campaign beat the expected turnout of  100 groups and branches by an additional 20.  The official BNP website fedback that we had 120 tabletops setup in villages, towns, and city locations last weekend.  Many groups have also vowed to keep the message out there during the week days as well. 

On Nick Griffin's Twitter page today, it mentioned that 10,000's of signatures have already been gathered on the petitions.  With two more weeks left of the main push, we are probably looking at between 40,000 - 50,000 signatures in total.  This campaign will continue on a smaller scale, from October 18, so it's anyones guess what the final tally will be.

Good luck to all of our activists on October 2.

Week 3

From the handful of reports that have filtered onto the BNP website so far, it looks like the interest from the public is still as strong as it was during weeks 1 and 2.  People are still lining up to sign our petitions in the 1,000's.  A round up of the first three weeks has been captured by Bertie Bert from thebritishresistance.co.uk .  Please add their website to your favorites list.

Week 4

With the 4th weekend of the campaign behind us, and the main push now complete, it has been an extremely encouraging period for the British National Party.  The response on the ground, from the British public, has confirmed that the war in Afghanistan is very unpopular.  With a figure of 50,000 received signatures announced  last week, and many more weeks/months of action across Britain to come, we are on course to hit the 100,000 + mark before Christmas. 

Before now, there wasn't a political outlet for the frustration towards the Labour/Conservatives/LibDems ran "War on Terror".  The only option was to sign a high street petition ran by the anti-war/socialist worker party front groups.  As neither of the groups has any political representation, at any level, there was no way that they could force change.  The British National Party instead decided to campaign against the war seeing as no one else was interested.

With cuts to Social Services being made by the government, it doesn't seem fair that the Con/Dem alliance are still giving the U.K Ministry of Defence Billion's of pounds a year to fund this war until 2015.  Our troops should be brought home and the money should be used to protect our borders and police our dangerous streets.

An Interview with Franklin Graham

This article was published in the May 17, 2010 edition of Newsweek (U.S Edition).

For those of you are not aware of who Franklin Graham is, I ask if you have heard of Billy Graham?  Billy Graham is a very successful Southern Baptist Evangelist, who has been the spiritual advisor to 12 American Presidents.  Franklin Graham is his son, and the president and CEO of both the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) and the international Christian relief organization Samaritan's Purse.

Franklin Graham was originally invited to the Pentagon National Day of Prayer, as a representative of the Christian community, but was then told that he had been disinvited due to his comments about Islam (see interview below).  After complaints about Reverend Graham's comments, by the muslim participants, he was barred from attending the event by the Pentagon's Chaplain's Office.

Reverend Graham was interviewed by Jon Meacham and Lisa Miller regarding this event at the Pentagon.  The full interview is reproduced below:


MEACHAM: Would your sense of Christian humilty not lead you to see the point of critics who say, because of the things you've said [calling Islam "wicked,""evil"], you could possibly be divisive than unifying at a state-sponsored occasion?

GRAHAM:  Someone could try to make that argument. Eighty percent of America claims to be of the Christian faith. So there may be 20 percent who may be offended.

MEACHAM:  I'm in the 80 percent, and I'm offended.

GRAHAM:  That I mention Jesus Christ [in prayer]?

MEACHAM:  No, sir, by what you said about Islam, because I think it's more divisive than unifying

GRAHAM:  Nine years ago I said it was wicked

MEACHAM:  But you still believe ?

GRAHAM:  Sure.  But, again , I don't go out and speak about it.  I just have to ask you:  what they do to women, is that wicked or evil?  

MEACHAM:  I would go to the cross for your right to preach in almost any forum.  But I also understand the argument that the point of a public religious service is to be as unifying as possible.

GRAHAM:  I am who I am.  I don't believe that you can get to heaven through being a Buddhist or Hindu. I think Muhammad only leads to the grave.  Now, that's what I beleive, and I don't apologize for my faith.

MEACHAM:  We are an incredibly hospitable country to all faiths.  I think that's a good thing.  I don't know that you do.

GRAHAM:  Of course I think it's a good thing. And when the Muslims wanted to celebrate Ramadan at the Pentagon, I didn't write a letter and voice objections. And when they wanted to have their prayer service on Capitol Hill, on public property, supported by the Obama administration, I didn't write a letter to my Senators and congressmen.  But why can't we as Christians have our own program?

MILLER:  Forgive me, but you're not being disinvited because you're a Christian.

GRAHAM:  I'm being disinvited because of my faith and what I believe.

MEACHAM:  I understand the principle.  You're urging religious freedom - that your liberties have been abridged.

GRAHAM:  The Obama administration better be careful.  Millions of evangelical Christians voted for him in the last election. 

MEACHAM:  Are you suggesting that the Obama administration has been soft on Islam?

GRAHAM:  I think the whole nation is soft on it.  No question.  And there's still the concern with many people about what Obama really believes.  Obama's father was a Muslim, so the Islamic world sees him as a Muslim.  Now, he has told me personally that he believes in Jesus Christ and he is a Christian.  He said that again to me last week.  And I said, "Mr. President, thank you for sharing that with me.  I appreciate that."  So I believe what he says.  The Islamic world, though, they see him as one of their own.  So if the the president and his administration want to cut guys like myself out, that's fine.  But it's just sending a signal to the evangelical community that our people aren't important to him.

Now, we as nationalists have experienced a similar situation when our Chairman was disinvited from the Queen's garden party during July, because he took part in some interviews with the MSM.  He was already on his way down to London from Wales when he was informed that the invitation had been cancelled.
