BPP Lose Mailbox

Yorkshire antifascists force closure of the Nazi British People Party's Leeds accomodation address (see also linked story.)

Following protests by antifascists in West Yorkshire Mail Boxes Etc (MBE) have now terminated their contract with the Nazi ‘British People’s Party’ (BPP) and closed their accomodation address in Leeds. The decision follows protests outside MBE's office in Great George Street, Leeds, and numerous complaints to the company. The protests were organised by The 635 Group, the West Yorkshire arm of Antifa, with a picket of MBE's office attracting around 25 antifascists, as well as a couple of fascists, who were quickly shown the pavement.

In a statement issued to Indymedia The 635 Group said: "The closure of the BPP’s accommodation address is a significant victory for antifascists, and the first step in closing down this Hitlerite sect once and for all."

For their part, the BPP are clearly very upset, posting up MBE's letter terminating the contract on their website, they forgot to remove the address of their National Secretary, Kevin Watmough! A laughable statement, worthy of Dad's Army reads: "We tell the Reds here and now. NOTHING will stop our growth. We will not back down to Communist threats and violence! We are White Nationalists. We fight back and we grow. Until we are an unstoppable force and those who tried to stop us will one day be called to account for their vile threats and blackmail."
