The British People's Party has been in existence for just over a year and what a year of turmoil and struggle it has been! We were formed in September 2005 and immediately had a crisis when our Chairman had to be expelled due to severe allegations of misconduct. As things turned out this was for the good for the man in question is a liability to any White Nationalist organisation. The split with the Nationalist Alliance would never have happened yet I still firmly believe we would have had to change our name - the BPP name has a real ring to it and is the next obvious stop for any patriot who doesn't want the BNP's way of doing things. The NA are a great bunch and it is sad that we are not united - but we do not know what the future may hold.
Then on January 22nd 2006 at our first major meeting I was severly attacked - I could call it attempted murder - by members of the 635 Group, a violent offshoot of Antifa. I lost a lot of blood after being struck over the head with a bottle and went into shock. Needless to say this severely affected the meeting.
I have soldiered on despite this only to have the BPP car wrecked by persons unknown. Every window was smashed in and the car bodyworked pounded and smashed. So we are without transport in Leeds and that has affected our ability to travel to other meetings.
I took a break from June through to August due to illness at which time a couple of senior figures went to the BNP - for their own reasons. They are of course free to do this but it put a heavy burden on Kevin who is now Party Leader and he was doing everything for three months.
I returned to the fray in September and we immediately revamped the website, got out a letter to all members. Since then we have got Vanguard back up and running as a monthly mag and Imperium as a quarterly.
Nationalist Week at the time of writing has reached its 105th edition. This is our weekly e-zine which goes out to thousands of Nationalists every week. AOL have blocked Nationalist Week distribution which has caused us some problems - many AOL users have given us alternative e-mail addresses, so the damage has been limited.
Far more seriously, PayPal cut off our account. We were getting a lot of orders for merchandise and members through Paypal as well as some sizeable donations. Now we have to rely on the post so this has been another blocking tactic by ZOG to destroy the BPP.
Recently we have come under attack, quite unfairly from another Nationalist grouplet who exist by poaching other organisations members and we have had to contend with that, as well as all the day to day worries of running a White Nationalist party in the hostile environment the UK has now become.
On the plus side, membership has picked up sharply. We have held a joint ceremony with the England First Party for Remembrance Day and there was an excellent turn out.
Vanguard November issue is out and December well under way - so too is the Winter edition of Imperium.
We see 2007 as the year the BPP will consolidate itself and become a major player in the struggle. I do not want to criticise the BNP too much but the trickle of members coming to us from the BNP is increasing all the time (we are not poaching them - they are approaching us!). I predict that this trickle will eventually become a floodtide and all BNP members are welcome.
We do not believe in proscription even though other Nationalists practice this self-defeating tactic.
White Nationalists can be in the BPP and any other patriotic orgnisation they wish - we only ask that they put loyalty to the BPP first and foremost. At the end of the day we see ourselves as the only viable radical alternative on the White Nationalist scene, together with our EFP comrades.
So it has been a year of set-backs and intense struggle against Red Front and Reaction - but we have survived. We are still here and we are growing!

The hard core of our members have stayed loyal and we have a firm springboard for a major offensive in the New Year. All true White Nationalists belong in ONE Movement - and that Movement is the BPP.
