You have to laugh.
As befitting a candidate for the BNP - main policy: ridding Britain of foreign criminals, foreign benefit cheats, foreigners fleeing persecution, foreigners working legally, foreigners working illegally, and just foreigners in general - salt of the earth youngster Daniel Thorlby is an intelligent, hardworking and eminently upstanding member of the local community. The lank haired jobless layabout spends a whopping £25 of his dole money a week on cigarettes, though this at least reduces the amount of time he spends spouting racist crap. Yesterday he was fined £50 for refusing to pay a fixed penalty notice issued when he was caught throwing his still-lit cigarette into the grass rather than putting it in one of the many nearby bins in a Newcastle park. And who'll pick up the tab for the court case that resulted from the BNP bigot refusing to recognise the rule of law? The tax payer, of course. Keep on keeping Britain great, Daniel.

Its easy to fall for the way the press word their articles to woo the public into a certain way of thinking. Dole money is an easy way to make somebody look pathetic. What the article does not mention is that dole was a couple of week'between jobs' solution. In their previous article about me they described me as a 'financial advisor,' and for the last two years I have been a pension advisor. I certainly am intelligent and hard working, recieving good grades from a private boarding school. Hypocritical I am not. Dropping a cigarette end is just about the most irrelevant thing I can think of for the Chronicle to write, as it is something which every smoker does, and so was the only dirt the Chronicle could really think of at the time. They were desperate. As it happens, I even picked the cigarette end up... which was why I wanted the case heard in the magistrates and why I refused to pay the fine initially.
and saying 'lank haired' for example does not describe a personality trait. The press used that picture because it was the worst one they could find. Somebody's looks dont neccessarily dictate their personality. I use rational arguments to justify my policies, and certainly do not make sweeping judgements... espcially as, you will be interested to know, I am a Saudi Arabian immigrant!
What does your ethnic background have to do with anything? It's not only uneducated white Anglo-Saxons who are capable of being racist twats, you know. Don't tell me, some of your best friends are black...
The voters of Westgate (114 votes, last of four candidates) saw through your "rational arguments" last time. I doubt you'll be able to woo the public of Westerhope any better this time out.
And by the way, you were convicted of the offence, weren't you?
Just so people know.
True. Many types of people can be racist twats, and no, my ethnic background does not dictate my level of racism. But being an uneducated 'scruffy' anglo saxon 'racist twat' is what you implied with the sarcasm of your original post.
Hence, my defense, the intention of which was to show how the mass media (in this case the Evening Chronicle) can paint a picture that is entirely misleading. You made your innaccurate assumptions based upon the Chronicle's story.
Yes I was convicted. But it was my word against theirs as its not like I video taped myself picking the cigarette up. An enforcement officers word, of course, counts for more that mine does in petty cases like those. Just want people to know (not that they'll read a blog this old anyway.)
But the original point I made still remains... I'm not exactly a hardened criminal! You gotta be joking if you think a cigarette end on the floor 'proves' anything about my character.
And lastly, 90% of the voters of Westgate have never heard my 'rational arguments' as canvassing them all or getting to know them all is impossible. Votes rely mainly upon generic literature, which is unfortunate when you consider that local representation is more about the person you elect than the party he/she stands for. Naturally, I'm a free thinking individual so the way I would carry out the role of councillor would be different from the way someone else of my own party might. Plus, although the BNP still dont win in Newcastle, eventually our message filters through. BNP votes continue to rise nationally.
Daniel, Daniel, I never meant to imply you were an Anglo-Saxon (the racist twat, on the other hand, is a fair cop).
Does dropping a cigarette on the ground say something about your character? Very much so. When you say that "every smoker" does it, what you mean is every smoker who can't be arsed to walk the extra metre to a bin. For a free thinking individual you're awfully quick to play the herd defence.
You say BNP votes continue to rise, I say BNP votes continue to form a miniscule percentage of the overall turnout. You can fool some of the people some of the time...
