A RETIRED Grange dentist is accused of being part of a bomb plot after a record number of explosives were seized in a Lancashire town.

David Bolais Jackson, 62, of Trent Road, Nelson, was arrested on Friday in the Lancaster area after leaving his Grange practice for the last time.

Jackson was charged with being in possession of an explosive substance for an unlawful purpose.

However, it is unclear who or what the intended target might have been.

Police found rocket launchers, chemicals, British National Party literature and a nuclear or biological suit at his home.

The find came shortly after they had recovered 22 chemical components from the house of his alleged accomplice, Robert Cottage, a former BNP election candidate, who lives in Colne.

The haul is thought to be the largest ever found at a house in this country.

He'll be promoted to region organiser for this.

It is likely that he is no longer a member and he definatley wont be a member much longer if he is.

Funny. We had a racist nutter in our town who had a massive collection of arms in his house. He's inside at the moment, which explains why his neighbour advised me against canvassing the empty house. He drew attention to himself by spraying black power slogans on walls to persuade the locals to turn against our ethnic minority! Joe Walcott, Theo's grandad, was returned with around 80% of the vote last time which demonstrates how successful the guy wasn't. :roll:

I'm calling BS on this one. Labour fit up to cover their tracks against the recent veil argument backlash.

BNP literature: I've got some in my house too. That's because they keep posting it through my letterbox.

NBC suit: Apparently very good for going fishing in. 30 quid from your local quartermaster's.

So what kind of chemical components? Toothpaste? Mr Muscle Drain Unblocker? Domestos? Can of Coke? What? This is a couple of months after people were banned from taking liquids onto planes because "you can make explosives out of every household item".

The only bit that can't be easily explained away is the rocket launcher. But what exactly is a rocket launcher? Since the advent of the Internet (and more precisely the Jolly Roger Cookbook), you can pretty much class any bit of old drain pipe as a rocket launcher.

Also, in a previous story I saw about this the paper was saying that he was being tried at something like "the Pennines Court" or something. Local place anyhow. If this were real, he'd be at the Old Bailey.

I've worn one - they are the most nasty, sweaty pieces of kit you could imagine!

I would call BS too, if it had been all over the press (like it would have been if it was a Mooooslim doing it).

The fact it has all but been buried, makes me think it might be true.

Quite right John Carter. They'll also try and hand the Muslim Community Nick Griffin's head on a platter when he's up for trial on 30 October. It won't work, as all it does is generate publicity for the BNP and will make Griffin a martyr for speech speech and a stand against political correctness.
