Beneath dear spires; their

In minister aisle, in yew tree shade
Their memories fight for England yet”
JOHN TYNDALL EXPELLED FROM BNP!
Below is a statement
just sent out by John Tyndall and we are rushing out this issue of
Nationalist Week due to the serious nature of today’s developments…We print it out as it was
submitted to us and pledge the Spearhead Group loyalty to John Tyndall
and the cause of true White Nationalism now so sadly betrayed. What
will come in the future we do not yet know? We only know this – for our
Race; for our Nation and for the Fourteen Words WE will carry on the
struggle!
Dear
Patriot,
As you
most probably now know, the disciplinary 'trial' at which I faced
thirteen charges of alleged offences against the BNP constitution took
place in Essex yesterday. This afternoon I was informed of my expulsion
– which, as far as I was concerned was a foregone conclusion. As I have
remarked to one or two friends, they were starting to build the gallows
several weeks ago. The ‘trial’ was just a formality.
I have
greatly appreciated the concern and support shown by so many inside and
outside the BNP, and I am confident that we can beat these people
eventually if we are determined enough and keep our heads.
It
must never be imagined that these things only affect John Tyndall. Two
of our best organisers, Ian Edward in North West London and Mick Holmes
in Lincolnshire have also been marked down for the ‘chop’. Mick has
recently been expelled and Ian is targeted for the same fate shortly.
As to the effect on the party in their areas, that is of little concern
to the Griffin/Lecomber gang in their paranoid rampage.
Three
members sat on the tribunal. I had never before met or even heard of
any of them. I was not notified of their names in advance of the
hearing, as I should have been. I cannot say that I found any of them
personally disagreeable but it was very clear from early in the
proceedings that they were woefully inexperienced in the ways of
nationalism and of the party and simply did not understand the basic
arguments. Tony Lecomber's approach was to harp constantly on the
'nazi' theme and to appeal to these people's perfectly correct and
understandable view that we did not want the BNP to be labelled a
'nazi' party -- a view that I happen to share but one of which it was
difficult to convince the tribunal members in the face of repeated
allegations by Mr. Lecomber to the contrary. All kinds of items were
taken from Spearhead magazine and twisted and presented in
contexts intended to convey 'nazi' intentions. A politically mature
tribunal and one aware of the principles of law and justice would have
seen through this technique but I doubt if any present did. It was
clear that one definitely did not: he was nodding and loudly 'yessing'
to everything Lecomber said; the other two were less ostentatious in
their assent but the final result was the same: the verdict of
expulsion was unanimous.
Of
course, the issue at hand was not whether what I wrote in Spearhead
was politically right or wrong but whether, in writing
it, I had
in some way breached the BNP constitution. Repeatedly, I had to bring
the agenda back from political arguments -- and arguments as to whether
this or that happened or didn't happen in the party -- to the strictly
legal arguments that were crucial to the case. Repeatedly, I had to
remind the jury that they were not asked to agree with things I had
written, or allowed to be published, but were expected to recognise my
right in a free country and party to express or publish them. Mr.
Lecomber endeavoured at times to take us on long tours into totally
irrelevant territory, for instance arguing the rights and wrongs of the
conflict occurring in 2000 involving Michael Newland and Steve and
Sharron Edwards, and attempting to back up or excuse Nick Griffin's
actions in that conflict. As on so many occasions, I had to remind the
company present that none of this had anything whatsoever to do with my
guilt or innocence on the charges I was facing. Tony Lecomber knows
this -- he is not a complete fool in such matters -- but he quite
cynically sought to influence the tribunal against me by drawing upon
these arguments to show how 'wrong' I was in my assessments of things
going on in the BNP. In a proper court of law he would immediately have
been pulled up by a judge for dwelling on irrelevancies and then had
the judge instruct the jury to disregard them. However, here he was
able to get away with it.
Again
and again, I had to remind the tribunal of my basic rights in the
expression of my opinions, and these included the right -- at times and
in some people's view -- to be wrong. Whether this message got home is
open to doubt.
Just
before leaving to drive up to Essex, I checked the morning's e-mails
and found among them copies of an absolutely self-damning communication
from Tony Lecomber. It was addressed to Britain's most notorious
homosexual nationalist, Martin Webster. It concerned the charges
against me and the coming hearing of them, and I will quote the most
relevant parts here exactly as written:-
"Dear
Martin...
"I'm
in the last phase of, i hope, finally getting rid of tyndall from the
bnp. After which there will no doubt be a court battle over the matter
which i'm sure he will lose.
"I
plan to write a small biography/exposure of the great man covering his
political career. I remember our conversation in Islington [in 1998, shortly before the Griffin takeover campaign. JT] about
events in the 1970s which you could recall, being the man on the spot,
but was all news to me. It confirmed to me that he was a bloody
hypocrite but, at the time, i didn't see the point or need to make
notes as the points made weren't really germane to Griffin versus
Tyndall in 1999 [open to serious question. JT].
"I should say now right
from the off that this little project
has got nothing to do with Nick. It's about my personal loathing and
contempt for tyndall, who in my opinion has cost us 20-25 years [JT emphasis]... Tyndall
has cost us dearly.
"Such
material as you could provide would be highly desirable since it covers
the period you knew him and I didn't...
"Will
you help out on this one?
"Tony"
Mr.
Lecomber displayed monumental foolishness in sending such a
communication to Martin Webster, for 'confidential' information
conveyed to the latter today will tomorrow become known to the whole
world. This piece of idiocy contrasts strongly with the sender's quite
cunning and clever conduct of the tribunal proceedings two days later.
Of course, what our Tony L. did not seem to appreciate was that Martin
Webster not only hates me, in consequence of my stand against his
homosexual adventures in the National Front in the late 1970s, but he
hates Nick Griffin probably even more, and also despises Tony Lecomber
himself.
I
produced this e-mail and read out the most relevant parts in
yesterday's proceedings but I doubt if it would have had any important
bearing on the outcome. I believe, however, that it could be a vitally
important piece of evidence in any court action I may later take to get
the expulsion order overruled.
Yours
sincerely
JOHN
