Griffin arrives in time for a party

Griffin: Managed to avoid the tanning salon

Not for the Brtish National Party, you understand. Party leader Nick Griffin was strangely absent from yesterday’s ‘Keep Britain White/No to Halal food’ debacle in Sunderland, but luckily he made it to Sunderland in time for a booze up at the High Lane Social Club some hours later.

It seems the booze up at the High Lane in Hebburn was a more important date for some other BNP officials too. Scottish Organiser David Orr, who could not remember/be bothered wth this year’s local elections also managed to remember there was a party booze up, but did have the decency to turn up in a bright yellow jacket for the earlier demo. Wonders will never cease.

In fact, people travelled from all over the country to get to the party, except from Tyneside.

Uninvited to share a sausage roll with the party leader, party stalwart Kevin Scott described the disaster of yesterday’s failed demonstration as a “debacle” with Griffin “giving the ridiculous pantomine a body swerve”. Thankfully, BNP TV managed to tell those BNP members who still believe their lies that it was the “biggest” BNP demo in the North East for years! Scott however, was not far off the mark by commenting further “only seven/eight people turned up”.

Party time: The BNP are "huge" allegedly
