The BNP Conference will be in November (I think) - plenty of time to get the ball rolling if you feel that is what is needed. Posting it on obscure websites or through Searchlight and their minions does Colin Auty no favours.
Part of the problem lies in not knowing what any potential new chairman would be capable of. Colin Auty is an 'unknown'. He, and the others, have never been tried or tested under fire. Would they be capable of handling the sustained abuse and hatred spewing forth from the likes of UAF scum, Cruddas or BoJo? Would they be able to hold their own with television presenters? The membership know Nick Griffin can do these and more, but can Auty? Or anyone else who wishes to take his place?

NG was a bit of an unknown face to a high proportion of BNP members in 1999. I'm not sure exactly when NG joined the BNP, but I have a sneaky feeling he was a member for less than 5 years before taking over as leader. Deputy leader Sharron Edwards had only been a member for about a year.
