LMHR: 'Exposed BNP Members Should Be Isolated From Public Life'
Share

The Love Music Hate Racism (LMHR) campaign has welcomed the publication of the British Nation Party's entire membership list.

The list, which appeared online on Monday (November 17th) evening, includes the names and personal membership details of police officers and teachers.

In a statement, LMHR said those exposed as members who worked within a public service should be “viewed as infiltrators, there to promote racism and fascism”.

It also called for immediate action to be taken against the individuals and said any member not previously "outed” should be “shunned and argued with, isolated from public life.”

The BNP have reacted angrily over the list's publication, which is thought to have been leaked by a former member.

However, Lee Billingham, National organiser of LMHR said: “For many years BNP members have colluded in a disgusting website called 'RedWatch' which incites violence against anyone opposing them, publishing their opponents' names, addresses, photographs and phone numbers.

“Several of the people named on Red Watch have been violently attacked by Nazi thugs. For the BNP to now bleat about a 'disgraceful act of treachery' and 'intimidation' against them is rich.

"This is the chickens coming home to roost."

The membership list has since been removed from the Internet.

Love Music Hate Racism are expected to publish reaction from various musicians involved in their campaign later today (November 19th).
