Subject: RE: BS: So why has the BNP gained votes?
Gee, note that David Hannam's name is mentioned. He was the nice polite fellow from the BNP who was posting here some years back. Remember how you wanted everyone--namely me--to be polite to him? Hell, he still has a membership, no? But I'm sure YOU'LL be nice to the poor average BNP soul.
'A poster on BNP rebel blog "Enough Is Enough" writes about an incident at the BNP's 2006 conference in Blackpool where Nick Griffin's right hand man and star of Channel 4's "Young, Nazi & Proud" took 2 underage girls back to his hotel room with another BNP member, David Hannam.
Mark Collett - Star of "Young, Nazi & Proud"
"I believe [Collett's] story that he chatted up a girl in a disco who looked 18, and then took her back to his hotel room. His offence was to bring a guest back to the conference hotel room, nothing else! He was quite rightly given a final warning for that, which meant the next incident should have been automatic expulsion. But that's just one of many problems with this whole Collett thing, it seems the rules don't apply to him, he's untouchable. Mark Collett is a nasty megalomaniac, but he's not a sex offender." - Chris Hill, former Lancaster BNP organiser
"With all due respect Chris you were not in the hotel bar when Collett and Hannam came in with the 14 and 15 year old girls and I was and so was Kenny Smith and several others. We all could tell they were underage as soon as they walked through led by Collett and many of us said as much to each other including the barman.
When the girls came back down complaining about the demands for sex it was even more obvious they were children and it was Kenny Smith who persuaded them not to go to the press with the mobile phone footage and promised them that Collett and Hannam would be disciplined by the party.
One of the girls bluetoothed the footage to Kenny and I believe he gave it to security (pos. Martin Reynolds) the next morning." - 'I was there' posting in response to Chris Hill regarding Mark Collett's behaviour and lack of action taken against him. '
