Yet the BNP still manage to make gains. Even if they're small, they are still gains. So what more will the 'establishment' have to throw at the BNP? I'm absolutely certain that if there was anything out there that could damage the Party as much as you say, then they would have moved heaven and earth to do so.
I can only conclude that all the so-called damaging reports are either the products of vivid imaginations, or are so old that they've already been round the circuit several times and have, therefor, lost their potency.

It's the tip of the iceberg I'm afraid.
Next year the BNP might have to fight three sets of elections simultaneously (Euro, general, and locals) which is sure to be a strain on both their finances and manpower. They could do without any people in the party that could be liabilities or easy material for journalists to create bad press from. There is still time to clean up corruption in order to minimise damage done by the media, but will the BNP take action now?
It won't look good if NG's cronies are kicking out dissenters in 9 months time, simply because they want a fair and square leadership election.
