Speaking of Griffin……..

Interesting artice from the Beebl. The Reddest Tory notices that Nick Griffin MEP, leader of the British National Party, has indicated the BNP are auctioning 2 signed Andy McNab books with the intention of donating the proceeds to Help for Heroes.

From the Beeb

 

 

“Help for Heroes is a strictly non-political charity, we are only concerned with providing direct, practical support for our wounded servicemen and women,” the charity said in a statement. ”We accept donations from all who wish to join us in providing that support and we make grants that will benefit all who are injured in the service of our country, regardless of colour or creed.”

All very fluffy and NewLabourspeak. I am fairly confident however that I am not the only one who is disgusted by this development. I am also fairly certain that I will not be alone in refusing to make any future donations to Help for Heroes as a result of them taking money from fascists.

Nothing heroic about that.  Please reconsider.

 

Left Wing Radio

The Reddest Tory is of the understanding most of those who have found there way over to here are former colleagues within the academic community. The Reddest Tory therefore knows that, whilst he may well be on the left of the Conservative Party, the vast majority of those reading this (at the moment) are somewhere to the left of Dennis Skinner.

The Reddest Tory would therefore invite all his former academic colleagues to listen to this short radio broadcast over at a blog authored by Donal Blaney. Its a horrendously left wing tirade against the forces of conservatism that I am sure all those of you who wait in anticipation for the proletarian revolution to come will draw considerable enjoyment from.

Hello

Good evening ladies and gentleman. Welcome to The Reddest Tory. 

The Reddest Tory has been established in order to provide its author with a platform from which to spout his inarticulate, idiotic and idiosyncratic political views. As the title of this blog would suggest, the author would identify himself as being on the progressive end of the Conservative Party and the blog will occasionally highlight the absurdity of those who continue to undermine the great strides we have made in recent years by refusing to accept that Thatcherism and unrestricted capitalism are spent forces. 

The Reddest Tory is a proud defender of the National Health Service, the comprehensive education system and the BBC. He believes the European Union is not quite the evil force many conservatives make it out to be, although he has no desire to see the single currency adopted by the UK. The Reddest Tory is a passionate defender of the Third Sector and believes the public and private sectors should work closely with experts in that field to ensure all in our communities have the opportunity to genuinely prosper. He believes all conservatives should recognise that Thatcherism is no more desirable to socialism and that localism is the real third way.

This blog seeks to discuss a number of subjects. Alongside offering a very personal and subjective view on the salient political issues of the day, The Reddest Tory will also cast the occasional eye at the activities of CF (he is a member), the important art of football, music, film and anything else that tickles the authors tastebuds.

Enjoy,

The Reddest Tory
