BNP scab ‘trade union’ tries to recruit at Belfast's Shorts aircraft factory

BNP local fuhrer Stephen Moore on a recruitment drive

THE British National Party’s sham ‘trade union’, Solidarity, is trying to recruit members from the 6,500 workforce at the Shorts Bombardier aircraft factory in east Belfast.

The drive is being backed by the BNP’s organiser in the Six Counties, Stephen Moore, from Larne.

Searchlight anti-fascist magazine’s Matthew Collins described the BNP-backed Solidarity as “a scab trade union” out to divide workers on their race or nationality.

Collins said:

During every major industrial dispute, the BNP have supported the bosses.

Bungling BNP boss Griffin

The BNP is on the verge of collapse, torn apart by in-fighting and waves of expulsions and resignations under its bungling leader, Nick Griffin, and swamped by debts. Its efforts at Shorts are said to be faring little better.

Heil and farewell

Meanwhile, the head of the BNP’s neo-Nazi rivals in the National Front in the Six Counties has retreated into the background after his girlfriend gave him his marching orders.

Mark Brown, from Portrush, stepped down after being the NF’s dedicated front man for the past five years when his girlfriend left him.

She and her family were unhappy about publicity Brown was getting in the Sunday World for his fascist activities.

It is being reported that Brown has clashed with a National Front figure in Ballymena.
