Voters turn out in force to reject BNP
 |
| Isabel Langsford |
CORSHAM voters turned out in force to keep British National Party candidate Michael Howson out of the town council.
Liberal Democrat candidate Isabel Langsford, 51, won Thursday's by-election, called after the resignation of Coun Jasvir Singh.
Town council chairman Allan Bosley was delighted with the 43 per cent turnout.
He said: "People have turned out because they realise it is their duty to take part in the electoral process and the effort that the candidates put into canvassing also helped."
Mr Bosley said the turnout was the result of the wake up call given to voters last year when BNP representative Michael Simpkins won a town council seat as the only candidate standing for the Rudloe ward.
He added: "I think there were so many people turning out this year because they wanted to see their favourite candidate in the Corsham seat. There were eight candidates this year, which made more people vote."
Mr Howson was voted into fifth place with 119 votes.
Mrs Langsford, 51, who works part-time at a dental practice in the town, said she was amazed to find that she had won the seat.
She said: "I was so tired when I found out the results but I was really pleased. I still can't believe it, it's like a dream." The mother-of-three was campaigning with her team of ten Liberal Democrats supporters at 6am on the morning of the elections. They posted leaflets to all 3,864 electors in the Corsham ward.
Mrs Langsford, who lives in Winsley, near Bradford on Avon, said she is passionate about Corsham because of its wealth of small business. Supporting the town's traders will be one of her priorities.
She said: "I think the town is fantastic because it is one of few places that has still got local stores like the butchers and fruit and vegetable shops that bring people into the town."
She also vowed to campaign against The Porch Surgery's plan to move to Rudloe.
She has a busy year ahead with her council work, a third grandchild due next month and a degree course in archaeology due to start in October. She said: "I am looking forward to just taking on board all of the things I need to know as a councillor.
"Working part-time and starting my degree in October gives me a chance to get on board with the council."

If you believe what the G&H say you'd think there were only 5 candidates in it. So for accuracys sake here is the full result.
Lib-Dem – 676 (40.6%)
Con – 399 (24.0%)
Ind – 172 (10.3%)
Ind – 147 (8.8%)
BNP - 119 (7.3%)
Lab - 92 (5.5%)
Grn - 42 (2.5%)
Ind - 16 (1%)
So rather than rejecting the BNP, who were up 2% on their 2007 vote the voters rejected the Greens who fielded their Parliamentary candidate and Labour who dropped 1% on their 2007 vote. Intresting point - if this was a full council election the BNP would have got in with a top 7 finish. Finally your article implies the voters turned out in favour of Isabel Langford only because the BNP were standing against her. Don't you think it might just be the case that Isabel won because she was the better of all candidates in the eyes of the voter. To imply otherwise does the lady no justice!

It's a shame that newspapers continue to "bend" the truth, they do nothing to enhance any reputation they may still have, certainly with us readers who believe in truth and honesty. Voters didn't really come out in force to keep out the BNP. Yes, the turnout was high for a by-election, but 57% of the electorate were not bothered who was elected even if it was the BNP. At least the BNP provide an alternative to the big 3 parties who seem intent on dismantling all that is/was good about this country and make more headlines for their errors and financial indiscretions than they do for any positive work they might be involved with.
The facts are that the BNP acheived a respectable vote with a low-key campaign and beat the Green Party and the party who are currently governing this land, the Labour Party. It's another good sign that Gordon Brown is the most unpopular Prime Minister for many a long year and socialism is now a lost cause. The times they are a-changin'.

Smears and downright distortion once again from the G&H.
The BNP vote is actually increasing everywhere and the left in their desperation to nullify BNP support will say virtually anything to create a fear factor, the good news is ....it's not working anymore :-)

Actually the 43% turnout was 5% less than 2007. Perhaps the headline should read "Voters don't turn out in force to reject the BNP"?

well i can say without doubt nobody put any leaflet through my door about any election going on or when and where to vote.Perhaps they dont bother if your not a toff from town because they know the estates are full to brimming with bnp supporters. Given the information and opertunity to vote i would have voted bnp but it seems my home must be invisiable to the political types.

This type of crude media bias against the BNP is out of date and does no credit to newspapers who continue to use it. Indeed it is immature and an insult to the intelligence of the people who pay to read it. The big question is this - why is an apparently unbiased press (as they always claim to be) unable to deal objectively and professionally with the issues the BNP raise in their campaign? Or do the press reject the ideas of democracy and free speech?

Hmmm, I wonder how many of the people who've made comments on here are BNP supporters?
Like the vote itself for a toothless town council, do you think anybody cares?

What a disgraceful piece of GUTTER journalism. Not a mention of the noteworthy fact that the BNP candidate BEAT both the Labour and Green candidates! Is the Gazette & Herald owned by the Tory Party? I think we should be told!

As they say, smoke and mirrors.
The so called `free press` is obeying instructions to censure any possible "good reporting" of the BNP`s activities.
The trouble is that these people who enact this policy are, in my opinion signing themselves to eventual oblivion.
This country is falling apart without any input from the BNP, and in a few years it will all "hit the proverbial fan".
Democracy is dead, and
despite the media`s efforts to paper over the cracks, the true will get out, and probably with dire consequences for us all.
Isn`t it great to live in a "free and fair" country? If I only knew where it is!!

There's no mystery as to why the press are down on the BNP - for a start, this particular rag is owned by the giant Gannett corporation of America, which orders editors to show minorites (in the USA that means Blacks) in a fovourable light. Multiracial societies and immigration are what they want - it increases their customer base, not just for selling more copy but increasing advertising revenue. They also gain entry into more countries world wide for their publications. The BNP's nationalistic, pro British stance goes against the controlling, global ambitions of the international press. When the dozey British public wake up, the international press barons and their toadys in the UK will be given short schrift. Let's face it, would we really miss the Daily Mirror or The Sun? Or the Daily Sport?

It's interesting to see how "Dr" Russell incorrectly spells shrift with a typically German prefix of sch.
I personally think these foreign prefixes coming over, taking our words is an outrage. Someone should do something about this horrendous degradation of BRITISH spelling values. It makes me sick every time I see a word that's been blatanly taken over by immigrant spelling.
I think "Dr" Russell should take his Germanic spelling back to where he and it came from.

Back to the topic, perhaps voting should be compulsory, true representation will be clear.
Even if you turn up and write "none of the candidates are worthy of my vote", it will show a result we can't moan about by nit-picking percentages.
Or, as my grandad told me, on poling day "VOTE EARLY...VOTE OFTEN"

"do the press reject the ideas of democracy and free speech?"
I don't subscribe to your rather vile views "Dr"Russell, but I agree with your right to express them - which you have done quite extensively here on this Gannett newspaper's website.

The BNP did not get in because the people who did vote did not want them!!!
If all the estates are brimming with BNP supporters then why did the BNP not get them out to vote, simple because they are not.
The BNP will stay on the fringes of politics along with the monster raving looneys, greens and all other such narrow focused groups.

The weird views of some of the dimmer posters on this thread are proof positive of the brainwashing power of the Marxist controlled media. I often wonder how some free thinking press employees (if that isn't an oxymoron) cope with having to go along with such un British bias. In a real democracy, all views must be examined and debated fairly, not ignored and vilified. The BNP are the only truely democratic party, the others all drink at the same saloon (hopefully the last saloon).

The problem with the BNP is their connection (justified or not)with racism. If they could shed that they would get more votes. I am glad to see however that the Labour Party had an even lower % of the votes. They are the most dangerous of all the parties beacause they are wrecking this country.

I'm interested in your claim that the media are Marxist controlled when you've already suggested the Gets Worse is down on the BNP because it is an American owned publication. I was always under the impression the US hated Marxism with a vengeance. America is also the home of some very extreme right-wingers and of course, the KKK.
I'm not sure the Sun or the Sport could be described as Marxist controlled.

The BNP have extremist views and most people are not extreme and thats why they dont vote for them. The idea the press is marxist controlled etc just shows the kind of daft stance BNP supporters take on issues.

The Marxists of the 1920s Frankfurt School turned from economics to culture to advance their revolution. They gave victim status to ethnic minorites (ie blacks in the West), homosexuals and non feminist women. The degeneracy of the 1960s - Bob Dylan, militant queers, feminazis, "free love", STDs, AIDS, family breakdown - oh, and mass immigration - has rotted our country to the core. If the media are not controlled by the cultural Marxists (ie the PC brigade) how come they don't criticise the afore mentioned, except in a sensationalised manner to sell copy?

I think the decline in this country is caused bya growing drugs culture which is leading to increased crime and anti social behaviour coupled with laziness and the belief the state owes you a living without you putting any effort in.
I dont think you can really blame it on the media or a few homos or butch woman!!!
