Leafleting for the upcoming By-election

Following the resignation of a Green Party councillor in Leeds there will a By-election in the Farnley & Wortley ward on the 18th of September.This hilly ward in west Leeds has never been leafleted by the BNP yet despite this fact we recieved 793 votes in this May's council election giving us 13.8% of the vote share.BNP activists from around Leeds have been leafleting and canvassing this week in Farnley and Wortley.We have had a very positive response from local residents who all feel the same ill feelings towards the main parties.

Many of the people we met in gardens,at doors or on the street greeted us with words of support and encouragement,some of the people even cheering and waving their BNP leaflet in the air.Anyone who leaflets for the party will know that after having walked for miles and miles in all types of treacherous weather conditions,be it sweating like a mule in the baking sun or soaking wet in a thunderstorm, it is always rewarding and satisfying hearing kind words of gratitude and support from the good folk we meet.

We intend to put a leaflet through every single house in the ward before next Thursday's By-election.Although it is unlikely that we will win the ward this time around we do believe we can lay the foundations for future success.Here is the 4 page colour glossy leaflet which we are putting out across the ward.Our leaflet is far superior in design and quality to the tacky poor quality amateur print outs that the other parties have distributed.The feedback from this leaflet has been extremely positive that within the first week we have had 4 new members join up,including one man who was so relieved to know that there was a party out there standing up for British people that he came out leafleting with us the very next day after recieving a leaflet.
