Falklands Hero To Contest Gawthorpe for BNP.A former paratrooper, who fought and was wounded in the Falklands War, will stand as a British National Party candidate in Gawthorpe Ward in the May local council elections.
Thirty-eight year-old Andy Kenyon has thrown his hat into the ring for one reason only - From 1980, he served for 5 years with the 2nd Battalion Parachute Regiment including a tour of duty in Northern Ireland. He fought for his country in the Falklands War and was wounded during the battle to retake the islands. Andy's brother, John, contested Gawthorpe ward for the British National Party in May 2000, polling a very respectable 109 votes (8%) despite a very low-key campaign. This May, John is contesting Hapton With Park for the BNP.
Andy Kenyon believes he and his brother will poll well in their local area.
