Richard Barnbrook AM to join English Democrats?

Richard Barnbrook is the Assembly member on the Greater London Assembly who was elected as a list member for the BNP. Somehow he fell out with the BNP and drifted off into the nether regions of nationalist politics. Now I see that he is being courted by the English Democrats. Barnbrook is not one for membership of a party that says it is an inclusive organisation I would have thought.

The leader of the English Democrats is Robin Tilbrook, a pillar of legal and Anglican circles. I cannot understand why he thinks Barnbrook would be a suitable standard bearer, unless of course it's just opportunist politics with integrity on the back burner.

St George's Day - England's Day

Happy St. George's Day. My daughter has gone to school to celebrate with face painting and decorating biscuits. It's something she's been looking forward to. Children from all kinds of backgrounds will be joining in and having fun.

I really hope the people of England can now begin to realise that celebrating being English is as good as celebrating being Irish, Chinese or Caribbean. People from these lands know who they are and are justly proud of it. I've never heard anyone say there was anything suspect in a St. Patrick's Day parade. I wonder when we are going to have a St. George's Day parade. I bet if I asked for the streets of Birmingham to be cleared for a jolly flag-waving meandre through town some flinty-eyed pointy-head would react and say it would be a problem.

When the English Democrats launched their general election in Dartford, some fresh-faced copper lunged forward and started to suggest that the very sight of an English flag would be provocative (to some people he had in mind!). He tried to follow this line of argument, but was persuaded of his ridiculousness and he withdrew.

Isn't it a crying shame that the police, council officials and other such people are now infected with this crazed notion that to be English is somehow offensive. It isn't, but these political Pharisees are continuing to infect our politics, our country and who we are.

I want to see a new lot of MPs who will cast aside this political incorrectness and bring back common sense and decency. Being English is not about DNA mixtures but about a sense of values and of belonging. Those who impugn Englishness as they do are decidely not very English in their attitudes. In fact, it's all an alien doctrine they are trying to impose.

Tolerance and decency. That's being English. Ever known a politically correct apparatchik to be tolerant and decent?

O'Connor not 4 Justice 4 England (or London)!

Matt O'Connor, the substitute candidate for Mayor of London on behalf of the English Democrats, says he has halted his campaign to become mayor. O'Connor replaced Garry Bushell, the well-known columnist, social pundit and all-round diamond geezer. Appearing on Vanessa Feltz's radio talk show on BBC London, O'Connor complained about lack of publicity. I can't think what he is meaning, as he got quite a bit. The trouble was it was all about him and his past exploits in Fathers4Justice.

As Sir Alan Sugar might say on firing a hapless candidate in The Apprentice, "You're a complete shambles. You're fired!". The English Democrat campaign had an air of mystery laced with a we-know-something's-going-on-behind-the scenes inclination. It was badly thought out with little or no contribution from leading EDP people. O'Connor's website has been pulled leaving him saying, "With the benefit of hindsight I probably should not have stood for them".

I would have thought that the Kilroy episode with parts of UKIP turning into Veritas turning into whatever would have sobered the mind. Anyway, he's still on the ballot so it that sense nothing has changed. If O'Connor is right and he get's no more publicity he can't complain. He'll get the vote he would have got if he hadn't resigned!

Divide and Rule? Gordon Brown's Britain!

This is a good You Tube presentation from the English Democrats. Our part-time, job-sharing Prime Minister thinks this is all OK. So much for his talk of "Britishness" and constitutional reform! With Jack Straw in charge, it will all end in tears.



Watch it and weep!
