Tony White
Tonight an ageing Leeds Nazi settles back into his old cell on Armley’s ‘protection wing’ after being sent down for 21 months. Tony White, of Wyther Park Hill, Bramley received the sentence after police received information from his one-time ‘comrade’ in the White Nationalist Party, Kevin Watmough, that White had a stash of racist material at his home. The subsequent haul included DVD’s, CDs, T-shirts, and fascist ‘literature’, some of which was originally supplied by Watmough. White was convicted of six counts of possessing racially inflammatory material and one count of distributing it.
The police raid that seized White’s Nazi haul came less than a year after he was jailed for distributing racist material to young girls on a Leeds bus. White, who has also dealt in child pornography, quickly moved to the ‘nonce wing’ of Armley prison, where he is rumoured to have started a relationship with another prisoner. Other charges even led to a campaign by the fascist hate group ‘Noncewatch’, with posters being put up in the Bramley area accusing White of being a child-molester. The campaign was supposedly spearheaded by one of White’s old adversaries, the British National Party’s Mark Collett.
White has had a chequered career on the far fringes of the British Nazi scene, most recently being involved with the ‘White Nationalist Party’, but lately treated as a pariah by even the most hardened Nazis. His longstanding history as a police-informer has not helped.
Today, prior to White’s sentencing, his solicitor argued that he was “a changed man” who “needed help to overcome his extremist views.” A psychiatric report on White was not read out in court, but was clearly unhelpful.
As the lardy thug was sentenced he gasped and burst into tears before being led away. His wife Carol was comforted by a friend.
While antifascists have long regarded White as little more than a joke, he has been an occasional danger to liberal anti-racists, and certainly a threat to non-white people living in the Bramley area. Despite the fact that he no longer seems to have any form of home on the fascist Right, few antifascists are likely to react with anything other than mirth and jubilation at the incarceration of this deranged and irritating racist.

Redditch BNP councillor should resign
26.01.2007 23:27
Anti-fascists called on David Enderby British National Party (BNP) councillor for Winyates ward, Redditch, to resign his position on the council after he was found guilty of three counts of assault yesterday. He was fined £100 for each of the counts and ordered to pay £100 costs to Kidderminster Magistrates Court. He is refusing to resign his position on the council. In June last year Kevin Hughes Enderby’s agent in the elections was sentenced to three months in prison for racially aggravated common assault.
There have been a string of recent incidents involving BNP councillors/ members/ activists. Only two weeks ago the BNP Parliamentary candidate for Hull Brian Wainwright was found guilty after a campaign of hate mail against the local mosque, a Muslim councillor and a local anti-fascist activist. A letter in which he claimed, “Muslim blood will be spilt” included ‘SS’ scull and cross bones imagery. Another letter was sent to a local anti-fascist activist threatening that Combat 18 (the Nazi terrorist organisation who take there name from Hitler’s initials) would visit.
In the same week a BNP activist in Swindon Mark Bulman (who has used the pseudonym Bullock) was sentenced to five years after attempting to firebomb a local mosque using a BNP leaflet as a fuse. He also daubed swastikas and racist graffiti on local shops and businesses that he believed to be ‘ethnic’.
In June 2006 BNP councillor Brian Turner was found guilty of a racially aggravated public order offence. He escaped a jail sentence and was instead ordered to carry out 300 hours of unpaid work in the community. Turner has previous convictions of common assault and police assault after he was convicted of beating up his wife Melanie Turner.
Sabby Dhalu, Unite Against Fascism Joint Secretary said:
“David Enderby should resign immediately. Enderby’s refusal to resign his position on the council is unacceptable. People of Winyates ward, Redditch deserve better than a thug as a local representative.
The BNP is unfit for public office. They claim to be a legitimate political party, however it is clear that the BNP does not behave like a normal political party. Its history is riddled with violence, particularly racist violence. The above convictions reveal the true nature of the BNP - that the BNP is a fascist and racist organisation full of thugs with criminal convictions. ”

Fuck 'em. They can do what they want - they're not going to stop people opposing them just because the spam filters get slightly overwhelmed from time to time. Lancaster UAF received well over 35000 spam mails in December (email bombing) and once we had the filters in they ceased to be a problem. So far they've targetted our blog (DDoS attacks), our email (spam bombing) and our phones (offensive, though funny, calls). Ho-hum, we're still here and we're staying put. These nazis are such morons.
