Labour/BNP – the Easter Drylaw Gardens Connection

The BNP member from Bebo

Whilst all the news today is of the leaked BNP list, news comes into the EdSucks GangHut of a very nice link from the British National Party to our famously squeaky-clean (tee hee) Edinburgh Labour Party. Not happy with a link to the BNP there is also a tenuous link to the News of the World’s Fake Sheik. It seems that the BNP member is living in the exact same address as Labour’s brand spanking new councillor Cammy Day. Shame he didn’t tell us that in his election material. Do continue reading……

The name appearing on the list is as follows:

Mr
Colin
Day
35 Easter Drylaw Gardens
Edinburgh
EH4 2RL
0131 315 3055
07766 726517

We have already been informed by the national media that Cammy Day is denying that it is him in another disguise. What is known is that his brother is not listed as living at his address in the electoral register so maybe this is a council tax dodge – Not good for a new councillor to be taking part in one of those, is it?

Tommorrow when Cammy Day is taking his seat at his very first council meeting, it will be a great laugh to be sitting in the cheap seats shouting questions to the councillor about what he knew, when he knew it and more importantly, why he kept it from the people who voted for him.

Day’s selection was surrounded in controversy and even long-time labour activists complained to the highest levels:

Following phone calls from Forth branch members, I also submitted a letter to Labour Party HQ in Glasgow to express my own concerns over the recent selection process. There are questions to be answered about how this was conducted, and unless these answers are forthcoming our candidate does not have a legitimate mandate. However inconvenient it may be I think the selection meeting should be re-run – with the Labour Party’s honesty and integrity under scrutiny like never before I believe it’s essential that we are seen to do things right and get the campaign off to an untainted start. The letter went off on Thursday and I’ll be interested to hear the Party’s views.

If Dave Pickering is reading, SO WILL WE.

Now this would normally be a resignation issue, without doubt. However, it is the Labour Party we are speaking about here. The don’t know the meaning of an honourable resignation.

Unfortunately, the Bebo page of the BNP member who lives with Labour Councillor Cammy Day has now been taken down, but not before we managed to get his photograph from his trip to Dubai.
