Возможность к правилу белизн-только BNP

Комиссия, которую возглавляют Trevor Phillips, верит что конституция и политика членства BNP различают on the grounds of гонка и красят - которому стоит в сразу несоответствии к поступку.

BNP смог смотреть на законное предписание если заявления доказанные поистине.

Кажется, что ограничивает критеря по членства партии членство к тем в пределах BNP считает как определенные «этнические группы» и те цвет кожи бел, согласно комиссии.

Among the other concerns raised by the commission was the belief that elected representatives of the BNP would not provide equal service to all their constituents on the basis of race or colour, contravening the local authority model code of conduct.

The commission’s legal director John Wadham said: “The commission’s statutory role includes a duty to investigate possible breaches of discrimination law and take action where appropriate.

“The legal advice we have received indicates that the British National Party’s constitution and membership criteria, employment practices and provision of services to constituents and the public may breach discrimination laws which all political parties are legally obliged to uphold.

“We await a response from the BNP to our letter before deciding what further action we may take. Litigation or enforcement action can be avoided by the BNP giving a satisfactory response to our letter,” he added.

The commission has a statutory remit and regularly monitors political parties to assess whether their activities breach equality law or incite racial hatred.

BNP leader Nick Griffin, who was elected MEP for the North West on June 4, defended the party’s rules as “entirely legal” under sections 25 and 26 of the Race Relations Act.

He claimed that the clauses meant “ethnic groups who need special protection such as the English in their own country, who are now second-class citizens” were “entitled to discriminate on that basis and not on the grounds of colour.”

The BNP in its constitution asserts that it represents those of “collective national, environmental, political, racial, folkish, social, cultural, religious and economic interests of the indigenous Anglo-Saxon, Celtic and Norse folk communities of Britain.”
