I don't blame Ashley Young for missing his penalty. It must have been
confusing for him, taking a spot kick without diving first.
Evening all. Hope you all are well.
As you can tell, it has been a while since my last post. Quite a few things have happened since my last post.
One of the things was the street party. It was a day. I was working for the first part of it, got back at the toast to Her Majesty was being said. The kids ate lots, which came in useful for after a bit of time riding their bikes up and down the street, they were allowed to go on the bouncy castle. As usual, I prefer not to name names on here but the couple who organised the party did one of the best jobs ever and they had organised a bouncy castle which the kids of the street loved. Well, how are they not going to love it! When I say an enjoyable day was had by all, it was.
And in addition to the street party, there was the birthday of my wife. We took her down to London for a shopping experience and while she was shopping, I took the kids away on a London bus. They loved it. Both times, both going away from my wife and back again, they got to sit on the top deck at the front. We had a great meal in London and overall, had a truly great time.
Anway, it is late now, have to go.
I typed 'Hell' instead of 'Hull' into my Sat-Nav.
I still got there.
I said to my wife, "Please get me a newspaper."
"Don't be silly," she replied, "you can borrow my iPad."
That spider never knew what hit it.
My boss texted me, "Send me one of your funny jokes Pete."
I replied, "I'm working at the moment, I will send you one later."
He replied, "That was fantastic, send me another one."
I bumped into an old school friend today. He started showing off, talking about his well paid job and expensive sports car.
Then he pulled out a photo of his wife and said, "She's beautiful, isn't she?"
I said, "If you think she's gorgeous, you should see my girlfriend."
He said, "Why? Is she a stunner?"
I said, "No, she's an optician."
A blog mostly about my family. Though I also rant about other things, work, music, films etc.

BNP don't make hoodies but if they did, they'd probably be white, baggy and have a point on the hood
I think that Britain is great. I think that it can, and should be
better. Working together, we can make it so. Listening to extremists leads to fear
and hatred, which is what this nation does not need. And due to this view I would make this
post about the far right today to highlight the links between the far right and
terrorism, and of course, the links between supporters of the far right and
other crimes.
I do not think that parties
like the BNP
should be banned, but I do think it is important that people know that the BNP
are like, as well as the links between the far right and terrorism. Of course, because of the
tragic events in Norway, this is a big issue at present, but it has been a big issue for a
while. It is just that it is in the public eye again.
So, let me post about
terrorists who have been associated with the far right in the UK. Some of this has been taken from the Hope not
Hate website, but I have expanded on the information that they have
provided as the information they have is out of date. In addition to
which, I think that it is important to highlight the links of the far right to
other crimes. I am aware though that not all these criminals are linked
to the BNP. I am also aware that there are bad eggs in other political
parties in the UK, each political party having ex-members who have convictions for
violence and child abuse (or related crimes). Other than Sinn Féin I do
not really see any other political party in the UK having as many terrorists as the BNP.
Basically, I think it is important to publicise this, especially as the Far
Right love to mention it when ethnic minorities, especially Muslims, are
involved in crime.
- DAVID COPELAND – London nail bomber David Copeland brought havoc to London when he set off three nail bombs in 1999. He was a BNP member and activist in East London. He told police when questioned that he wanted to ignite a race war in Britain so that the white population would vote for a BNP government. Read more
- STEPHEN LENNON - convicted for football related violence, he is one of the founders of the EDL.
- TONY LECOMBER was convicted and imprisoned for three years for five offences under the Explosives Act after he tried to blow up the offices of a political party. Police found hand grenades and detonators at his home. Despite this the BNP kept him on its payroll for over ten years. He was eventually forced out of his job after he approached Joe Owens to kill a leading politician.
- RODERICK ROWLEY - sentenced to 15 months in prison after admitting to fourteen charges of making, distributing or possessing obscene images of children. He was a BNP candidate in Coventry.
- ALLEN BOYCE and TERRY COLLINS In July 2006 Allen Boyce, a BNP supporter, received a two-year suspended sentence for providing Terry Collins, a BNP activist, with bomb making instructions. Collins himself was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment in 2005 for conducting a racist terror campaign against the Asian community in Eastbourne. Read more
- KARL HANSON - a BNP candidate found with heroin and crack cocaine before the election he stood for the BNP in 2005.
- NEIL KEILTY - has a string of convictions dating back to 1987, including threatening behaviour, criminal damage and possession of an offensive weapon. In 1994, Keilty, was sentenced to one year for his part in an attack on a pub in London. He has a long history of involvement with extreme Right-wing groups, such as the National Front and Friends of Oswald Mosley, and has twice been banned from football grounds for hooligan behaviour. And guess what, yes, involved with the BNP as well.
- MARK BULMAN – arsonist Mark Bulman, a BNP activist, was jailed for five years in January after trying to set fire to Swindon’s Broad Street mosque. He used a BNP leaflet as a fuse for his petrol bomb. Read more
- JOHN JONES - from the non-racist party that has nothing to do with Hitler, was found guilty of giving a Nazi salute.
- JOHN LAIDLAW - another member of the far right who claimed links to the BNP was arrested after a shooting spree where he targeted black men.
- JOE OWENS – gangland hitman For three years until summer 2004 Joe Owens acted as the personal bodyguard to Nick Griffin, the BNP leader, as well as being the Merseyside organiser of the BNP. However, Owens was also known locally as a gangland hitman, whom police had linked to several underworld murders.
- ROBERT BENNETT - used by the BNP to hand out leaflets, he was convicted of the rape of two 17 year old girls and had to serve five years. This being before he was used by the BNP to spread the message of hate.
- ROBERT COTTAGE convicted for possession of explosives once again highlighted the link between BNP members and racial violence and terrorism. While the BNP moved quickly to distance itself from the actions of a man who stood in three local elections as a BNP candidate, he joins a growing list of BNP members who have engaged in some form of terrorist or murderous behaviour. Read more.
- NEIL LEWINGTON - picked up by the police for an offence unrelated to terrorism, he was found to have bomb making equipment in his home the intention to launch a terror campaign. At his home, the police found extreme right-wing material, including videos of notorious racist or white-supremacist bombers. No link to the BNP, but a member of the far right.
- IAN HINDLE and ANDREW WELLS - both were BNP members and were convicted for getting two fourteen year old girls drunk to have sex with them.
- STEVEN BARKER - the killer of Baby P, also known as Peter Connelly. He was a member of the far right. And later he was also convicted for raping a baby girl. Not a BNP member though.
And of course, let us remember that Nick
Griffin went to Libya to get funding, from
the leader who sponsored the IRA.
