SCOTTISH SOCIALIST PARTY ATTACK BNP'S NAZI TACTICS

The Scottish Socialist Party today actively campaigned against the BNP’s Scottish electoral launch. Colin Fox, Edinburgh SSP organiser and likely to become the SSP’s MSP for Edinburgh and the Lothians, took a group of SSP members to confront the BNP at their electoral launch at a hotel in Bathgate. When informed that the BNP were behind the booking, the hotel cancelled it and the SSP escorted them off the premises.

Colin Fox said,

“We saw the Nazis out of Bathgate but they retreated to a UDA supporting pub which had hosted a party the night before to welcome the UDA to Scotland. We will see off the Nazis when they appear in Scotland.”

Tommy Sheridan said,

“The BNP are not welcome in Scotland. They got a derisory vote in 1999 and the people of Scotland will treat them with the contempt they deserve. Never forget the Nazi scum are the people who defended the Hitler regime. They have no place in Scotland.”
