Less pocket money for Griffin?

Griffin: Will be getting less cake next time

Membership renewal time approaches for what is left of the dwindling BNP’s membership. Most members are well aware of this already. They’ve been reminded by constant begging letters, phone calls and reminders from the party from almost the first day they joined.

Money and numbers remain the key to control of the party and if you cannot (yet) get the numbers to take full control, then the next best way to hurt your rival is to dent their finances.

BNP finances have never been too great so in a manoeuvre designed to both humiliate and decapitate the head of the party Nick Griffin, his leadership rival Andrew Brons has asked his supporters to not renew their memberships for next year.

In an article on the website of the Brons team, they describe Nick Griffin as slipping “Further Into Paranoid Delusion”.

This comes in response to allegations made by Griffin that the Brons camp are “police spies” and the removal of a link to the Brons website by the main BNP website.

Surprisingly, the Brons camp writes further that they cannot “afford to spend all the time navel gazing”, which is exactly what they have been doing for months and months as the party slipped further into the wilderness and near oblivion.

In a move that could further cripple BNP finances, the Brons camp have now decided that members should stop “pouring their money down a black hole of incompetence”, and instead should pay monies into an account “into which voluntary subs in lieu of party membership” will be held in trust until the “Griffin administration is removed”.

Given that almost half of the BNP’s voting membership is with the Brons camp, this represents another in a series growing potential disasters for Griffin. Previously Brons and his supporters were encouraging people to stay inside of the BNP.

It looks like things are finally picking up.
