STUC on BNP Euro Election Results

June 8th 2009

Speaking after the announcement that the BNP have secured two seats in the elections to the European Parliament STUC (Scottish Trades Union Congress) Assistant Secretary, Mary Senior, said

“This is a dark day for British democracy. It is extremely disturbing that the BNP, an avowedly racist party, has secured enough votes for two seats in the European Parliament. We all have a responsibility to expose the BNP for what they are – racist fanatics, and to organise and campaign to give people positive political alternatives to their fascism”.
