The monthly meeting of the Northamptonshire branch took place and the candidate for the forthcoming Corby parliamentary by-election was announced as Gordon Riddell .

Gordon is a long serving member of the party and has previously stood for the party in Corby at town and county council elections, unlike the other already announced candidates who only appear for the ‘ big ones’.

The by-election is due to the resignation of the Conservative MP Louise Mensch.

The Northants activists have been very busy leafleting parts of the constituency with a warm up leaflet and whilst out in Corby at the weekend, witnessed a whole coach load of Labour activists arriving at the Corby Labour Club in a London liveried coach.

Good to see they have the local people on hand to help them!

The coach was later spotted in a different part of Corby.

If you can help the Northants activists out in any way or wish to donate towards the Corby campaign, please send cheques/postal orders made payable to British National Party or British Heritage to; PO Box 9128, Lutterworth, Leicestershire. LE17 9DD.

Postage stamps would also be appreciated if preferred.
