BNP campaign links to Bill Murray’s SOTS

Bill Murray, director of Soldiers off the Street, the BNP-linked veterans organisation, claims SOTS has “no affiliations with any political party and are strictly a none [sic] political organisation“.

In a March 2010 email to Garry Bushell, the TV journalist, Murray wrote:

“We have NO conection [sic] with the BNP. I was a member and resigned there is a hate campaign going on with Tim Montgomerie, James Bethell and Maurice Cousins with their site Nothing British. The Times and all the leading papers including the charity commision [sic] and trading standards have all spoken to me and rejected their claims but they will not stop”.

But a quick glance over at the website allstandtogether.co.uk (AST) shows his former party are perfectly happy to link him in with a whole host of other BNP front groups.

AST is another astro-turf organisation set up by the BNP’s Patrick Harrington, secretary of Solidarity, the BNP’s trade union. AST says it is a campaign set up to support Adam Walker, former BNP PPC and ex-teacher facing a disciplinary hearing. Harrington is also friends with Murray on Facebook.

Perhaps Mr Harrington, a close friend of Griffin, is unaware of  SOTS’s association with the Racial Volunteer Force and other extremist groups such as the English and Welsh Defence Leagues? Or Murray’s online friends which include open supporters of Blood and Honour and the British Freedom Fighters?

    But seriously who cares about this stuff, these connections?
    Only you at NB.
    I think the average Jo(e) on the street is still trying to get their head round what the actual government is these days.

    Judge SOTS by what it actually does, does it do what it says on the tin?
    Does it get soldiers off the streets?
