Er, hadn't Bushell noticed that when he allowed his name to go forward?

I know conspiracy theories are fun, but the fact is that even well known and very able employees in the media have to earn a living and pay their household bills.

If you cannot square the above with certain reports, I recommend that you believe my above account.

Now I cant back up what I said with facts as I am not Barnbrook, the fact remains though that the BNP and their members knew before the English Democrats that Gary would no longer be their candidate. How is that able to be explained?

I do believe it: It's the same reason he gave for not standing for UKIP a while back...

No doubt in time the English Democrats will have the same policy as above they are moving in that way anyway.

It wouldn't surprise me if the EDs were swallowed up eventually.

Thus answering Adrian Davies' question at #20.

Furthermore. IF what you say is the case.
Then why did not such a consideration enter Bushell's head when he stood as a Parliamentary candidate for the EDs in South Staffs in 2005?

Note to the above Post.
I'm not asking SponPlague, but asking the EDs.

I agree with the above I think that over the next few years the EDP will be swallowed up and fade away
