Haha! Some high ranking ex-BNP member posted the membership list of the BNP online, names, addresses, telephone numbers, emails, the whole shebang! Apparently alot of closet-BNP members are now panicking

In the interests of free speech, you can see the list here: http://bnpmemberslist.blogspot.com/

Personally I have little sympathy for members of such a hateful organisation.

[catherine]

My great uncle used to be an MP for BNP, I didn't know he existed until about 2 years ago. Yeah, he's on that list...

[MK Chris]

I wonder if Markool89 is on that list.

[thenamesarnold]

Well thats freedom of information !!! (If i was on this list i would be slightly worried and would probably ask someone to beat me senseless if i voted for them )

Had to do a double take when I saw that first name..... thank god I was reading it wrong and the address is the other side of the country. Not that I would have believed it anyway.

[Yudster]

This whole leaked membership list thing is fantastic. Whoever did it deserves a reward.

[MK Chris]

I agree, it's great.

I couldn't help but laugh at Nick Griffin as he told a BBC journalist that although they are totally against the European Human Rights Act and if they were in Government (perish the thought) they would get rid of it, as they would withdraw from Europe, they will still use it on this occasion. Which is absolute bollocks anyway, the fella who leaked it may well have to go into hiding because he has leaked the names of racist thugs and he may well get a kicking for that. It was a brave thing to do, but a great thing.

[Johnny Karate]

I liked the way it listed their hobbies.... one fellow was into computers and shooting... I also found 3 old schoolmates dads.

[Bruvva]

It's worth bearing in mind that this wasn't leaked by some crusading anti racism campaigner, it was done by a leading member of the party (or so I assume, the BNP guard their membership lists pretty tightly) who disagreed with where the BNP was going. Essentially a bigot got the hump and revealed a list of other bigots.

[Johnny Karate]

and from this day forth he shall be known unto me as Lister Bigot.

[MK Chris]

Lister Bigot.

Hahaha, class.

I know it's one disgruntled racist scumbag listing other racist scumbags, but the fact is that it is a list of racist scumbags. I would never advocate violence against anyone, but it is interesting to see who is racist near me. It's also interesting to see who is in a position of power... the blog has been taken offline now, but it is still listed here.

It's a list of people that have been involved with the BNP. That includes people who have had negative dealings with them. Put your pitchforks away.

[Yudster]

Well, the BNP representative I heard quoted said it was a list of members.

[Munki Bhoy]

http://wikileaks.org/wiki/British_Natio ... _2007-2008

The list has been independently verified by Wikileaks staff as predominantly containing current or ex-BNP members, however other individuals who have donated to the BNP or who have had other contact (not necessarily supportive) with the BNP or one of its fronts may also be represented.

"May" is a brilliant word, and combined with the earlier use of "predominantly", and the quotes from the BNP spokesshite, I'll continue to regard it as a list of members I think. And no pitchforks for me - just a reet good laff.

[MK Chris]

I would love to see how some of them are reacting, but there's no way I'll be visiting any BNP-related sites at work.

Well because of this leak; one thing I learnt today is that some high up police officers, across the country, have definitely been sacked.

(What do you suppose would constitute an 'inappropriate tattoo' for the BNP?!)

Also, here is some of the reaction that made me laugh on the racist blogs and message boards:

• Jesus H Christ! Its true, I've just seen my details. Who in the BNP has done this?
• I'm also on the list, what the * is going on? I could lose my job
• I've just had a call, I'm on it to. I want my * member money back, like has been mentioned here, I could lose my * job. I'm bloody angry.
• How can Griffin run a country if he can't run a membership list?
• (Quoting: I must admit I'm rather torn over this: one the hand I'm on the list, but on the other I'm an estate agent): A racist estate agent?!?! You must be a hit with the ladies!!
• whats the fuss you should be proud to be a member. we should stand forward be counted and be seen. (posted by 'anonymous')
• Oh my .. i've had to leave the phone off the hook as i've been getting prank calls all night. I can't believe i'm going to have to change my e-mail and phone number from this scandal! Blast the news for making it even worse - im sure theres literally hundreds of people searching as we speak! This is not fun!

[Sunny So Cal]

I think Lord Adam Murray has a really interesting style of speaking. How exactly does that work? Good God. It conjures all sorts of images.

Oh, and this is fabulous.

• whats the fuss you should be proud to be a member. we should stand forward be counted and be seen. (posted by 'anonymous')

Ah yes. So proud, in fact, that he will stand forward, be counted and be seen inasfar as anonymity allows. Brilliant. He'd be the one with the bag over his head then?

[foot-loose]

I think that was the point Topher was making.

[Sunny So Cal]

Do you? Oh dear, was I supposed to just write 'agreed' instead? My apologies.
