BNP Saves Peter Pike From Sleepless NightsThe British National Party have come to the aid of Burnley's beleagured MP, Peter Pike, to save him from any sleepless nights over fears of prosecution in the "ANL Leaflets Scandal"."Peter, you can sleep easy in your bed tonight," was the message from Burnley & Pendle BNP after a spokeman contacted 'Burnley Bravepages' to set the record straight over a story that appeared on the website yesterday. The statement explained, "The dossier that has gone to the Crown Prosecution Service only concerns November's Council by-elections and those under investigation are four members of ANL - the Burnley MP is not amongst them. "In fact, we understand that Peter Pike has been extremely helpful in the inquiry and provided a two page submission that proved invaluable in tracking down those who distributed illegal leaflets during the council campaign. "Burnley BNP want to see free and fair elections in May and that is the purpose of our complaint against illegal leafletting. It is hard enough to get our message across because of the media boycott on the party, without illegal leaflets being distributed by any Tom, Dick or Harry who opposes our policies." But far from chastened over the story was Burnley Bravepages editor Martin Wingfield, "During the June General Election and the November Council Elections, Peter Pike and Burnley Labour Party stepped down into the political underworld to cynically use the foot soldiers of the Socialist Workers Party, the Socialist Alliance and ANL to illegally campaign against the BNP. Now that the price for breaking the law has to be paid, Peter Pike returns to the political mainstream smelling of roses, while the people he used to get himself and Labour councillors elected, face a possible prison sentence. "I'm making no apologies. This May will see Pike and Burnley Labour Party making more pacts with the devil - or the Liberal Democrats at least - just to beat the BNP. That's not democratic politics, it's the actions of manipulators, opportunists and con-men."
