BNP vote down in Burnley
posted by: Nick L | on: Friday, 2 May 2008, 14:36
The BNP averaged 22.8% of the vote in the ten wards they contested in Burnley, down 25.1% in 2007, 30.0% in 2006 and 36.4 in 2004.
They held the won seat they were defending but its candidate in Cliviger with Worsthorne only polled 7.4% compared to the 12.5% obtained by the England First Party leader Steve Smith.

Don't forget, the BNP lost THREE seats in Burnley last year, so a bit more campaigning fron Hope Not Hate Lancashire among others, and more fascist losses will follow. Remember that the far right has many (warring) factions there.
