Reading in December’s Spearhead in the middle of an article I saw this story about the Hillingdon Branch which I bring to you here…
Gagging campaign spreads
[…]
Meanwhile, down south, one of the best London branches has been immobilised for some months. This is the Hillingdon branch, whose organiser is Ian Edward, another strong character who is not prepared to be anyone’s lackey. Mr. Edward had allowed the presence at one of his meetings of a person on the party’s ‘proscribed’ list. To those with a sense of proportion this was a small matter which could easily have been sorted out privately and quietly by means of a few words down the telephone, but no! Ian was immediately dismissed as organiser by Tony Lecomber, presumably on the nod from Mr. Griffin. Without his presence, the branch became non-functional as a BNP unit because no one among the members, loyal to him to the last man and woman, was prepared to take his place.
Organiser’s ‘crime’
In fact, everyone knows that the presence on the proscribed person at the meeting was just a convenient excuse for action against Ian Edward. A far bigger crime where he is concerned is his very cordial relations with Richmond Edmonds and myself [Mr. Tyndall], with his regular invitations to us to speak. He is clearly on the ‘hit list’ and must go! No matter that Hillingdon BNP has achieved some excellent local government election results and is needed to make an important contribution to meeting the party’s target of 100 candidates in the next general election, expected next year. A whole season of productive local activity has been sacrificed on the altar of Mr. Lecomber’s paranoia.
