BNP smashed in Laindon Park
from reports
Laindon Park, Basildon
By-election
The BNP percentage vote went DOWN in last
week’s by-election. The result was:
|
Labour |
818 |
|
Conservative |
582 |
|
BNP |
365
|
|
Liberal Democrat |
139 |
|
Independent |
30 |
|
Turnout |
22.9% |
There was an
impressive response to our appeal for leafleters, particularly from
Southend, and the whole ward was leafleted with our ‘Laindon United’
leaflet.
BNP organisers
Matt Single and Chris Roberts were clearly gutted and slunk out with
their 20-or so supporters before the result was even officially
announced. There was a confrontation after the count outside the Moon on
the Square with a toxic substance being sprayed by BNP supporters. In
case legal action is planned, no further comment at this stage.
