Nick Griffin reports from the European Parliament for the World at 8 – The latest bank bail-out plans are good news. The world's biggest banking institutions - the US Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank, the Banks of England, Japan and Switzerland - are all piling in to print untold billions of dollars so that they can be lent on the cheap to European banks which are then supposed to lend them at a tidy profit to struggling businesses and families in the real world. 

In the New Year the British National Party intends to build on solid foundations. We have already brought in a professional accountant to assist our National Treasurer.

His sidekick William Hague tells us that it is "common sense that people should pay off debts when and where they can". Back in the real world, people know that having large debts is not a good idea. We also know that job losses, the high cost of getting an education and a reduction in real wages are what cause levels of personal and family debt to rise.

“I’m the man who says ‘no’!” says Clive Jefferson, the Treasurer of the British National Party. He explained: “A popular treasurer is not a good thing. A treasurer who controls spending is a good thing.”
