In the recent local elections the BNP won 2 council seats in Nuneaton and Bedworth. Despite the
work in some of the wards with leafletting against the BNP, wards that
the BNP did not win, the LP deputy leader Harriet Harman saw fit to
castigate local LP members for not working hard enough to prevent the
BNP winning seats. So the blame is put on the members – not government
policies. Secondly, prior to the local elections, the local LP MP Mike
O’Brien, advised the LP members not to campaign against the BNP as such
action would raise their profile! You are damned if you do and damned if
you don’t!!
