Your British National Party Candidate

Introducing Mark Vickers . . .

Mark Vickers is 44 years old and has lived in Burnley for the last thirteen years.
Mark joined the BNP after being horrified at the level of violence shown in last May's riots.
Although, initially, he was concerned at the poor media coverage the party received, he found that the BNP were the only people speaking out on behalf of the British people.
Mark decided to stand for the BNP because he was disgusted at the council's plans to close down the old people's homes, while there was still funding available for Daneshouse.
"Many of these people fought for our freedom in the last year, only to be treated now like second class citizens. It is time to put our own people first."
