BNP leader Griffin pelted with eggs

BNP leader Nick Griffin has been forced to abandon a press conference outside the Houses of Parliament after protesters barracked him and threw eggs.

The demonstrators - shouting "off our streets Nazi scum" - chased him down the street to his car.

Mr Griffin, who was this week elected an MEP for the North West of England, said: "It's a very, very sad day for British democracy."

Mr Griffin arrived for the press conference on College Green in front of Parliament with fellow newly-elected BNP MEP Andrew Brons just after 2.30pm on Tuesday. He had only been speaking for a few minutes when the protesters appeared, chanting and waving banners declaring: "Stop the fascist BNP."

Eggs were thrown at Mr Griffin and his tough-looking bodyguards bundled him away through the crowd. The demonstrators kicked and hit his car with their placards before cheering as he drove off.

Mr Griffin alleged the three main political parties were trying to prevent the BNP getting its message across by colluding with protesters who he said were mainly left-wing students.

"It's a very, very sad day for British democracy," he said. "People should be entitled to hear what we have to say and to hear journalists question us robustly."

Mr Griffin said he was only splashed with egg but a TV cameraman had been hit full in the face. He described the protesters as an "organised mob that's backed by all three main parties to stop us getting our message across to the public".

Protest organiser Weyman Bennett, national secretary of Unite Against Fascism, said: "The majority of people did not vote for the BNP, they did not vote at all. The BNP was able to dupe them into saying that they had an answer to people's problems.

"They presented themselves as a mainstream party. The reality was because the turnout was so low, they actually got elected."

These liberals are beyond anything descent. throwing eggs i mean where's the flour as well, no class

yep, they think they know better, the pinnacle of class elitism, I mean, is there anything more self-righteous than the cambridge student going through

their 'socialist phase'

People like 'Donna Guthrie' who organised this event... 'Oh jah, one must do one's best to stop racism, jah.."

Don't worry, as soon as they move to London to work for the bbc, natural karma has way of catching up with them.

'Oh God, how ghastly, I thought their was multicultural unity.... oh papa...tell the chauffeur to pick me up, like pronto'

I'm an American, so I don't know too much about the party's and their values/stances over there, but if this BNP got elected fair and square why are they whining now instead of rallying support against them before the election? And if they did do that, then the BNP still won so deal with it. Majority vote.

Unfortunately your question assumes the premise that we live in a democracy, & if that were the case then we would have been given a referendum on the E.U. treaty & indeed given the chance to vote on wether we wanted Gordon Brown as our prime minister. (he is an unelected leader).

Yeah lol.

What about the British peoples right not to want immigrants or to be a part of the EU?

IF the UAF try to interfere with a Democratically elected officlal then the organisation sould be banned.

Yep us Brits dont like being in the EU, we dont like immigration and we dont like unelected Prime Ministers like Gordan Brown. Thats why we ote BNP!

The immigrants dont want to go back so they take to whining against the party calling them nazi scum.
