FREE
SPEECH RALLY IN LONDON 25th November 2005
On Friday outside the
Austrian Embassy, and adjacent to the German Embassy in Belgravia,
Central London, there took place a demonstration in support of David
Irving, currently in jail in Austria.
The demo was organised by veteran Nationalist activist RICHARD EDMONDS
and MICHELE LADY RENOUF. Michele Lady Renouf is a public relations
assistant to David Irving. She has just returned from a trip to Canada where she visited eight
cities, in order to speak on behalf of, and raise funds for jailed
ERNST ZUNDEL. She and Richard Edmonds attended the opening day of
veteran free speech campaigner Ernst Zundel in Mannheim, Germany on the 8th of November.
The next day, both Michele and Richard were able to visit Mr. Zundel in
his top security jail in Mannheim and to talk with him for
an hour.
At Friday’s demo in Central London, there were some twenty
supporters of free speech and friends of David Irving present. The demo
lasted a full hour and was well received by passers-by and motorists.
Leaflets were handed out, plus picket boards and a loud speaker
hammered home the free speech protest.
The BPP adds its voice: Free Zundel
and Irving NOW!
More than
53 million Muslims in Europe
Survey shows Islam on the rise across continent
More than
53 million Muslims live in Europe - 14
million of them in the European Union, according to newly released
figures. The Central Institute's Islam Archives in Soest, Germany, says
the number of Muslims in Europe has increased by 800,000 over the last
two years, reports the German evangelical news agency IDEA.
The institute's director, Salim Abdullah, says that among the 25 EU
states, France has the
highest number of Muslims - 5.5 million - followed by Germany with 3.2
million, the United
Kingdom with 1.5
million and Italy with 1
million.
Taking into account the whole continent, Russia has 25
million Muslims and the European part of Turkey 5.9
million. The Muslim population in Germany is mostly
made up of Turkish migrants. But the number of Muslims holding a German
passport has risen to almost 1 million.
Muslim worship in Germany is on the
rise. Approximately 200,000 take part in daily prayers and 493,000 in
Friday prayers at mosques and prayer houses - an increase of more than
10 percent over last year's figures.
Islam in Germany is a
"young religion," according to the institute, which counts 850,000
Muslims as minors. One in five Muslim adolescents worships regularly.
The number of converts to Islam has reached a new high in Germany. According
to the institute, more than 1,100 people changed their religion to
Islam between 2004 and 2005. Approximately 60 percent of the converts
were women. Most converted because they married a
Muslim.
But the reverse also is true: More and more Muslims in Germany are
becoming Christians. Most are Iranians in exile, who left their country
after the Islamic revolution of 1979. Iranian converts estimate that
each year approximately 60 Muslims are baptized in Germany – still a
tiny number.
The institute believes that more than 100,000 Iranian Shiites have
converted to the Christian faith since the Islamic revolution. Most live in the United States.
Brussels bites back
Brussels
It was perhaps inevitable that the crash in central London of Banana
Republic Airlines Flight 101, which killed 453 people and created a
swath of destruction across Islington, provoked Britain’s withdrawal from the
EU. Few could understand how the judges in the European Court of
Justice in Luxembourg had the power to
overturn the secretary of state’s ban on the airline for its poor
safety record, giving it the right to enter UK airspace. As the
body-count mounted, not even the most ardent Europhiles wanted to
justify the fact that a panel of unelected and unaccountable judges
with no known expertise in aviation safety had the power to overrule
the British government on banning airlines from flying into Britain. Public blame of the EU
was sealed when it emerged that the reason no one could remember the
British government handing over this power to the EU’s supreme court in
Luxembourg was that ministers had
never publicly announced it — no statement in Parliament, not even a
press release. They had gone along with the usual EU method, agreeing
things behind closed doors.
You may think I am making this up, but the only bit that’s not true —
yet — is the accident. You won’t have read about it in the papers or
heard it in Parliament, but the government has indeed agreed in
principle to give up its final say on which airlines fly into Britain as part of a harmonised
EU aviation-safety regime. The main part of the regime — which, an
official admitted to me, involves a wholesale transfer of powers from
the UK’s Civil Aviation
Authority to the European Aviation Safety Agency in Cologne — was announced last
week by the European Commission. Whatever the merits of transferring
control of aviation safety in Britain’s skies from London to Brussels, Luxembourg and Cologne — and they do exist —
don’t expect to hear a debate about it. ‘It is very politically
sensitive,’ one EU official told me.

BPP TRAINING SESSIONS
PLANNED – Announcement by John Wood
Starting early in the New
Year, a series of training sessions will begin in order to teach
speaking and writing skills to younger members.
It is surprising that
although many members can hold forth an argument in a pub or clubroom
and present logical and reasoned opinions, they are utterly incapable
of standing up in front of an audience and deliver even the shortest of
speeches.
Probably the reason for
this is some sort of ‘Stage fright’ that sets in when confronted by
several rows of people waiting to hear your every word.
In reality, delivering your point of view is exactly the
same when sitting comfortably round a table as it is when addressing an
audience from a platform.
The most common fault of
inexperienced speakers is to ‘dry up.’ They
know what to say, they know what they are talking about, or should do;
yet for some reason, they fail to deliver. The
outcome is a stilted speech interspersed with hesitant ‘ers’ and ‘ums’
and quite often digressing from the topic being discussed.
The training programmes
will help to alleviate these common faults and will teach the potential
speaker how to overcome them. There
are just one or two basic rules to follow in order to achieve a fluid
flow of verbal communication.
Firstly, it is imperative
to know the subject about which the speaker is putting over. Secondly, the speaker should address his
audience in a manner that will keep them attentive.
Add a little humour here and there to break the tension;
illustrate his speech by including a few anecdotes from personal
experience and above all, maintain eye contact at all times by
constantly looking at various sections of the audience and to give the
impression that you are speaking to them personally. This may seem
obvious when giving examples here but it is surprising how very many
speakers fail to follow these fundamental guidelines.
Apart from speaker
training, we shall be looking at communications by the written word.
How to write a letter to the press or to a local council, etc. How to put into words, your opinions in a
manner that will be readily understood, avoiding simple spelling
mistakes and bad grammar. This may sound
dull and boring but good correspondence is very important when trying
to get your message across. A sloppily
composed missive will not be taken seriously by anyone well versed in
the written word such as editors of newspapers and magazines.
There are certain basic
rules that apply here just as the rules regarding speaking. Always read
what you have written at least a couple of times before you send it.
Ask yourself if you could improve your letter by the use of different
words or phrases. Check carefully for errors in typing as well as for
grammatical content. If anything looks clumsy and out of place, try
replacing it. The English language is a
wonderful thing and to abuse it by slovenly writing is a sure way to
get your communications ignored. It
is not difficult with a little guidance to produce a letter or article
that is pleasing in its content.
I can guarantee that
those attending these training seminars will be surprised to find that
their speaking and writing skills will improve dramatically in a
relatively short time. Further details of
these classes will be published in the very near future.
JGW. BPP Chairman.
