Who are Nick Griffin & the British National Party

October 23, 2007

Nick Griffin is a white supremacist, a holocaust denier, is
homophobic and is an all around racist. These images are just a
taste of the hate that he and the British National Party (BNP) represent.

Griffin has stated that Islam is a “wicked, vicious faith” and that Muslims were turning Britain into a “multi-racial hell hole”(1-BBC).
Griffin has called the Holocaust the “Holo-Hoax” and wrote that, ‘I am well aware that orthodox opinion is that 6m Jews were gassed and cremated or turned into
soup and lampshades… I have reached the conclusion that the “extermination tale is a mixture of Allied wartime propaganda, extremely profitable lie, and latter witch-hysteria.’(2-The Guardian).
Click on “more” for Griffin and the BNP’s attacks on Islam, their Anti-Semitism, direct links to Neo-Nazis, Homophobia and example after example of them being nothing more than bigoted white-supremacists.

Griffin on Islam
In a speech, British National Party leader Nick Griffin made in the Reservoir Tavern in Keighley, West Yorkshire, on 19 January 2004, in which he described Islam as a “wicked, vicious faith” and said Muslims were turning Britain into a “multi-racial hell hole”.(3)
Another Griffin speech turned to allegations of violence by Asian Muslims against whites. He said: “These 18, 19, and 25-year-old Asian Muslims who are seducing and raping white girls in this town right now are not particularly good Muslims, they drink and all the rest of it, but still part of what they are doing comes from what they are taught is acceptable.”
Griffin said Asian community leaders would condemn the attacks to the press, but not to the attackers themselves. “It’s part of their plan for conquering countries. It’s how they do it,” he said. He added that this would expand to cover the UK “as the last whites try and find their way to the sea”.(4)
In interviews, he has refused to say sorry for comments on Islam and said the “Islamification” of the West had partly happened by rape.(5)
Griffin’s Anti-Semitism and Holocaust Denial
In 1995, Griffin joined the BNP. He began to edit The Rune, an anti-Semitic quarterly. He also announced that the BNP should prioritize denying the Holocaust to schoolchildren.
He earned a two-year suspended prison sentence for his sick views on the Holocaust. In 1998 he was found guilty of inciting race hatred at Harrow Crown Court for denying that the Holocaust ever took place.(6)
He wrote in the Rune: ‘I am well aware that orthodox opinion is that 6m Jews were gassed and cremated or turned into soup and lampshades… I have reached the conclusion that the “extermination” tale is a mixture of Allied wartime propaganda, extremely profitable lie, and latter witch-hysteria.’
He insists the number of deaths at Auschwitz has been inflated, and is emphatic that no more than 3.5m Jews had perished under Nazi rule.(7)
A Griffin publication, “Who are the Mindbenders?”, claims to prove that the minds of British people are brainwashed through Jewish control of the media. The booklet includes a list of all known Jews working in the media as though they are working together for a joint cause. He proves Jewish control of the BBC by naming a mere 19 Jews who work for the corporation.
In 1996, Griffin launched a vicious attack on the Holocaust denier David Irving for admitting that some people might have died in the Holocaust. “True Revisionists will not be fooled by this new twist to the sorry tale of the Hoax of the Twentieth Century,” Griffin wrote.(8)
Griffin remains an ardent Holocaust denier. Even today, he still refuses to accept the Holocaust happened. In 2006 he was quoted in the Mail on Sunday as saying: “It’s well known that the chimneys from the gas chambers at Auschwitz are fake, built after the war ended.”(9)
Griffin’s Homophobia
If Griffin’s reform is not a ruse then it certainly has limits to its tolerance. In response to the protests following the Soho bomb planted by former BNP member David Copeland, Griffin wrote: ‘The footage of dozens of “gay” demonstrators flaunting their perversion in front of the world’s journalists showed just why so many ordinary people find these creatures so repulsive.’(10)
Griffin’s Racism
According to the BNP 2001 general election manifesto, “native Britons”, whom it
claims can only be whites, would be given priority in the job market. “Non-whites”
would instantly become second-class citizens in Britain. Any black person who
commits a crime would also be thrown out of the country, even those who were
born here. Mixed-race relationships would be outlawed.
Privately, the BNP leaders have continually reasserted their political views. “all
black people will be repatriated, even if they were born here,” BNP leader Nick
Griffin told Wales on Sunday in 1996. “We must preserve the white race,
because it has been responsible for all the good things in civilisation.”(11)
Affiliated with Neo-Nazis
The BNP has a long relationship with William Pierce, leader of the National
Alliance, one of the most hardline Nazi groups in the USA. In August 1999,
Pierce addressed an American Friends of the BNP (AFBNP) meeting in
Arlington, Virginia. Pierce’s articles have regularly appeared in Spearhead, and in
1995 he addressed a BNP rally in London.
The website of the American Friends of the BNP has links to openly Nazi and
anti-Semitic groups.
BNP members are heavily involved in the violent Nazi skinhead music scene,
Blood and Honour. In 1998, Blood and Honour hosted a fundraising concert for
the BNP European Election campaign in Coventry. Among the audience were
Nick Griffin (BNP Chairman) and Tony Lecomber (BNP Group Development
Officer).(11)
Nick Griffin of the BNP has met with the National Alliance via the American friends of the British National Party, the main avenue of contact between the BNP and American Neo-Nazis.
This relationship is highlighted by comments made by the leader of the American Friends of the British National Party (AFBNP), Marc Cotterill, “It is not an American fight or a British fight or a German fight. It is a white fight, and we have got to win it.”(12)
Background on the British National Party

Out of the public eye, the BNP’s “cadres” make no secret of their fascist sympathies. In a 2002 Channel 4 documentary entitled Young, Nazi, and Proud Mark Collett, the then head of the BNP’s youth organisation and a protégé of Griffin, was secretly filmed declaring that “Hitler will live on forever”. Collett endorsed Griffin’s view that an openly Nazi movement was inappropriate to Britain in the early 21st century. But he insisted:
“National Socialism was the best solution for German people in the 1930s…. When people say ‘Do you take any inspiration from that?’, I mean, I honestly can’t understand how a man who’s seen the inner city hell of Britain today can’t look back on that era with a certain nostalgia and think, yeah, those people marching through the streets and all those happy people out in the streets, you know, saluting and everything, was a bad thing … would you prefer your kid growing up in Oldham and Burnley or 1930s Germany?”
In October 2004, when the BNP contested a council by-election in Dagenham, an Evening Standard reporter infiltrated their campaign. He quoted Tony Lecomber, who as we have noted was one of the earliest proponents of the current “modernising” project, expressing similar pro-Nazi sentiments to Collett’s. Lecomber asked: “Do you remember Cabaret with Liza Minnelli, the part where, one by one, the Hitler Youth, our fellas, stand up and start saluting and singing? That is right stirring that is, gets the blood up every time.”
On the eve of the 2005 general election the Yorkshire Evening Post reported details of a video made at a BNP social event “in which its members and supporters sing neo-Nazi songs, praise the leadership of Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich, and give Sieg Heil salutes accompanied by shouts of ‘Auschwitz!’.” One of the songs sung in the video is “a re-write of the Kenny Rogers 1969 chart hit ‘Ruby, don’t take your love to town’, except that the words have been changed to ‘Nigger, get the **** out of my town’.”(14)
bnp quote – Collett said gangs of Asian lads wanted “to wipe out white people”. He added: “I honestly don’t hate asylum seekers – these people are cockroaches and they’re doing what cockroaches do because cockroaches can’t help what they do, they just do it, like cats miaow and dogs bark. They do it because they are what they are and they’ll do what they do. The people I hate are the white politicians who have sold us down the line.”

I do not believe that there is EVER a morally acceptable contingency where a vote for The BNP is acceptable.
A vote for The BNP may well be the lesser of two evils but I consider it a vote for evil on any occasion.
NEVER FORGET that The BNP has failed/refused to repudiate its association with White Supremacist Extremists and the murder of some 4-5,000 mostly young men BECAUSE they are coloured - including an elected Black Mayor January 2008 & a Mexican American 2009. Similarly they have failed to renounce their past association with extreme anti Judaism.

#Doc016* - 17/12: BNP Leader's Family Alleges Abuse

#Doc016* -  17/12: BNP Leader's Family Alleges Abuse

Arthur Kemp, the third highest-ranking member of the British National Party, is accused of years of unspeakable, sadistic abuse of his children, according to an interview with his family published earlier this month in the United States.


Kemp’s wife and children recalled beatings, death threats, denial of medical care and forced neo-Nazi indoctrination from Kemp, who now directs “ideological training” for voting members of the BNP.

Kemp’s family paints a chilling portrait of a cruel, messianic father who forced his racist beliefs upon them, often violently. When his son, Stephen, was eight, Kemp repeatedly punched the boy in the face until he was almost unconscious. By the time Kemp’s wife, Karen, pulled Arthur off the child, the bedroom walls were spattered with blood, she recalled in the interview. The marriage ended shortly after this incident.

Kemp’s family remembers him as a racist tyrant who would beat his children until they couldn’t walk. He made them read racist books, forced them to listen to racist music and would not allow his son or daughter to swim in a public pool if it had been occupied by non-whites.

Today, Arthur Kemp directs member training and sells racist children’s books and music for the BNP. He is in charge of the group’s merchandising arm, Excalibur.

According to Kemp’s book, March of the Titans, mandatory reading for all BNP leaders, race is the sole determinant to the success of any civilization. The depth of Kemp’s racism is reflected in that book and in the years of suffering he inflicted on his children.

When the family was living in the UK a few years ago, Kemp refused to allow an Indian dentist to treat his six-year-old daughter. She suffered excruciating pain with a tooth abscess for several days until Kemp could find a white dentist to treat the child.

Around 2003, Kemp’s son and daughter claim he threatened to murder them if he ever found out they were in a relationship with a non-white.

After years of psychological counseling, Kemp’s son Stephen, has come to terms with the cruelty of his father. Recently, Stephen legally changed his last name to Mills, his mother’s maiden name. If only the 16 year old could erase the memory of Arthur Kemp so easily.

Now safe from the sadistic abuse of their father, who has been out of their lives since 2006, Arthur Kemp’s teenage children and his former wife have finally come forward. They gave a shocking and disturbing interview to a US Intelligence magazine this month. An online version of the article is here:

http://www.splcenter.org/intel/intelreport/article.jsp?aid=1110

An excerpt is printed below:


The Price of Hate

When Stephan Mills was 10 or 11, his father sat him and his older sister down after supper one night and told them that if they ever became emotionally involved with someone of color, he would kill them.

"I just nodded in agreement," said Stephan, now 16.

The incident seemed normal to a boy who for years had been steeped in his father's bigotry. Arthur Kemp, a South African white supremacist who has ties to British and American hate groups, indoctrinated his children with racist and anti-Semitic beliefs from the time they were very young. Stephan mostly adopted those views as his own. Several years ago, however, he rejected all that his father stood for. The experience would radically change his life and lead to his ongoing estrangement from his father, who's now divorced from his mother and believed to be living in England.

"Stephan's resentment toward his father is based partly on the fact that, in his sister's words, he had to relearn to be a civilized human," said his mother, Karen Mills. (Karen and Stephan Mills live near Johannesburg, South Africa, and the Intelligence Report interviewed them by phone and E-mail).
There was a lot to relearn. Arthur Kemp "was a very involved and doting father" when his children were small, Karen Mills said. He read to them often, carefully choosing books he felt would reinforce his ideology. Among them were the original "Noddy" series, English children's books that featured Golliwogs, dark-skinned caricatures that were later removed from the text because they were deemed racist. In one of Kemp's favorite Noddy books, the Golliwogs steal Noddy's car. Kemp enjoyed telling his children that the Golliwogs' theft of the car amounted to typical behavior for blacks.

But it wasn't only in books that Kemp found justification for his racism; post-apartheid South Africa offered plenty for him to complain about. "He tried to imprint on the children how bad Africa and everything here was," Karen Mills wrote. After striking workers toppled trashcans, for instance, "Arthur took the children into the main streets of the town and made them walk among the rubbish."

He also forbade socializing with non-white children. If they arrived at a friend's party to find that a black child had also been invited, Kemp made his children go home. When Stephan was six, his father reluctantly took him and his sister to swimming lessons at a public pool where one of the children turned out to be black. "He told us to get out and that we were leaving," said Stephan, who now uses his mother's maiden name. "I was still pretty young so I didn't really understand what was going on."

Kemp's attitude didn't change even when his children's health was at stake. When the family was living in Britain, he plucked his 6-year-old daughter, Joanne, from the dentist's chair rather than allow her to be treated by an Indian dentist, Karen Mills said. As a result, she suffered for three days with a tooth abscess.

When his children grew older, he allowed them to listen only to "white resistance" bands. Rap, especially, was prohibited. Although baseball caps, sneakers, baggy pants and big T-shirts were in fashion, he considered these items "ghetto nigger" clothing and wouldn't let his children wear them.
He also relished showing them articles and statistics that purported to prove that blacks were inferior. He contended that blacks could never be race car drivers because they have poor depth perception, that they cannot swim because their bones are too dense, that they are not as intelligent because their brains are smaller.

"The children were actively encouraged to be vocal about their views and to challenge their peers," Karen Mills wrote. "In Stephan's case in particular, this resulted in him being ostracized and made an outcast as he followed his father's lead."

Stephan said he had few friends until his first year of high school. At times, he suffered from depression because his father's brainwashing had so alienated him from his peers, his mother said.

"I wasn't really someone that people wanted to hang around with," Stephan said. "They regarded me as weird because I was constantly talking about Hitler."

Karen Mills said she initially went along with her husband's views to please him, but the marriage grew troubled as he devoted himself increasingly to far-right politics. She refused to read his opus on white superiority, March of the Titans: A History of the White Race, and criticized him in front of their children.

With his marriage collapsing, Arthur Kemp became violent, especially toward Stephan, Karen Mills said. Once, when Stephan was about eight, he hit his son's face until his nose bled and blood spattered on the bedroom wall, she said. He stopped only when the maid's screams brought Karen rushing into the room and she pulled Kemp off Stephan. Later, Kemp allegedly beat Stephan while his mother was at work. The backs of Stephan's legs were so swollen that he could not bend them to get into his bath. "If you ever hit my child again," she told Kemp, "I'll kill you."

Still, she did not report the incidents to the police. "You try to block it out because maybe it's more than you can deal with," said Mills, a lawyer who now works for the South African government. "You hope that it'll resolve itself and turn a blind eye."

Kemp dismissed the allegations from his former wife in an E-mail to the Intelligence Report. "It is all a pack of lies from a mentally ill person," he wrote. "I am disappointed that you would stoop to exploiting a person with severe psychological problems in this way." Karen Mills responded that Kemp has always claimed she's mentally ill simply because she disagrees with him.
Mills still feels guilty for allowing her children to suffer what she now sees as both physical and emotional abuse. "Why couldn't I do something?" she asked. "I just never stood up to him."

Kemp's persistence in forcing his beliefs on his children — along with his disengagement from their lives as he immersed himself in white nationalism — led them to question their father and the values he espoused, Karen Mills said. In a September 2008 post on the anti-racist site Lancaster Unity, Stephan called his father a "racist ass" and said he should be deported to South Africa. He wrote: "I remember almost every night when we would ask for a bedtime story (when most NORMAL fathers would read their children a normal book) he would instead tell us stories about how the white race was all supreme and then read us chapters from his horrible book "March of the White Titans" [sic]. Well dad if you ever read this or even hear about it I just wanted to let you know that I HATE YOU!! You have no idea what i went through at school because of you, you twisted my mind and made my entire childhood a horrible misery."

As his wife and children lost respect for him, Kemp withdrew further from the family. Karen Mills believes that's because they no longer fit his image of the model right-wing family that would help him achieve his political goals. "His political beliefs are the absolute be-all and end-all of his life," she said. "I think the reason why he's cut the children off is they don't conform to his political beliefs and aspirations."

Instead, "he began to seek out people who admired him and particularly his book," she recalled. "The admiration, and in particular the view of him as this great right-wing academic, became his main driving force."

He left the family in November 2006. "Picture this situation," Stephan wrote in November 2008 on Lancaster Unity. "I am fast asleep on thursday morning and when i wake i find that he is gone and then i receive a phone call from him telling me he is on a flight to London… THIS ASSHOLE DIDNT EVEN HAVE THE MANNERS TO SAY GOODBYE TO MY FACE!! I have not seen my father in now [a]bout two and [a] bit years."

Karen Mills said Kemp has had almost no contact with his children since the divorce. "I don't think there's any way that Arthur could fix the broken relationship with Stephan," she said. Nonetheless, "Stephan has gone through something of a catharsis." In addition to his posts on Lancaster Unity, he chose to discuss his father when he was assigned to give a school speech on someone who had influenced him — only he said his father's influence had been entirely negative. Now, his social life is improving, and he has resolved to be as unlike his father as possible. "I am stuck with some of his traits and characteristics — Mom used to joke with me that I have the Kemp laziness gene — but definitely not his political views," he said.

Yet there's no bringing back the years he lost to his father's hate. "You," he wrote to him in the September 2008 Lancaster Unity post, "will never understand what you have done to me."
