Barnsley Chronicle and Lucy McGowan



Why wouldn't the Barnsley Chronicle print the reply letter sent in by Barnsley BNP to Lucy McGowan?

Is it because within the letter it contains the truth and facts that maybe they just want to hide from the public?

The Barnsley Chronicle will only print what they want you to see and believe.

If you want to read some home truths, buy the monthly Voice of Freedom paper at the BNP stall on Saturday's for 60p.

Come and support the hardworking, voluntary Barnsley BNP activists who, against all the lies and political thuggery are still out there putting you first.

Below is the reply letter to Lucy which was sent to the Barnsley Chronicle. Unsurprisingly to Barnsley BNP the letter never made it to the letters page.


Dear Sir,

We must apologise to Lucy McGowan if we appeared rude and didn’t give full consideration to her views on the European Union, but at the time she approached our stall we were just in the process of finishing for the day and packing up our gear, so we were rather busy and preoccupied. We are normally courteous and respectful to anyone who approaches the BNP stall for a proper discussion on the serious problems facing this country, and we have had many interesting and informative conversations with members of the public.

In Lucy’s case she put forward the argument that the European Union was of great benefit to this country because it abolished trade tarrifs between the member states, so we simply asked her if there were trade tarrifs now existing between ourselves and the USA and which goods these tarifs affected. We were asking this question as Lucy had already stated that she was something of an authority on these matters, however she didn’t give us an answer to this question, but instead accused us of all being the same and not being interested in the truth, etc. We left the matter at that, but we certainly dispute her claim that we shouted at her.

In the last paragraph of her letter Lucy says that we should not be allowed to impose our views upon Barnsley people. The political system we have in this country ensures that no party can impose their political views on anyone, but can only use logic and reason to try to persuade them that their views are correct. In the privacy of the ballot box the voter can put their cross against any candidate they wish.
