The British National Party asks only of journalists that they do their job in an objective manner and not masquerade as “reporters” as a cover to execute their own political agendas. If they attempt to run far left political campaigns instead of doing their jobs, like the Times’s Dominic Kennedy, the BNP reserves the right to ask them to leave its functions. This was the official BNP Media Unit’s response to the latest childish rant by Mr Kennedy after he was forcibly removed from the BNP’s extraordinary general meeting last weekend.
After it had been explained to Mr Kennedy that he and a fellow Times journalist had engaged in a series of appalling lies and distortions over the BNP, he was asked to leave, the statement said.
Mr Kennedy refused to leave, and was then asked repeatedly to depart from the private property where the function was being held, completely in line with the laws on trespassing. Mr Kennedy consistently refused and was then removed from the premises, passively resisting so that he had to eventually be lifted off his feet to get over the doorframe.
“The incident was entirely Mr Kennedy’s fault as he refused to respond to polite and formal requests to leave of his own accord,” the BNP Media Unit statement said.
“No normal person, once it has been made clear to them that they are not welcome at a political gathering, then refuses to leave unless they are deliberately seeking a confrontation and want to cause trouble,” the statement said.
“Mr Kennedy went there looking for trouble, just like some street thug. BNP security used the utmost restraint in dealing with this gangster masquerading as a journalist and dismisses with contempt his childish whining after the event.”
The BNP Media Unit added that it would not hesitate to exclude other far-left cranks who masquerade as reporters from future BNP events.
“We have no problem with genuine journalists who actually want to report on what is going on at BNP events,” the statement said. “Honest and genuine reporters will always be welcome. But leftist lunatics, violence and confrontation-seeking thugs like Mr Kennedy, will from now on be shown the door.
“The BNP has had enough of smears and lies. It is an established political party with elected officials who have polled nearly a million votes. We do not have to suffer the abuse and lies of a small clique of leftist zealots anymore,” the statement concluded.
