BRITISH NATIONAL PARTY TRADE UNION FRONT

Early day motion 847, tabled 6 February 2007 by John McDonnell (Labour). Signed by 121 members.

That this House expresses its extreme concern at the planned launch by the British National Party (BNP) of a trade union front organisation called Solidarity, the British Workers Union; wishes to expose this front organisation for what it is, nothing other than a vehicle for peddling the racist propaganda of the fascist BNP; and aims to ensure that the British public is aware that this organisation has nothing to do with the traditions and values of trade unionism in this country.

Signatures by party: Labour 91, Liberal Democrat 14, Conservative 8, Plaid Cymru 3, Social Democratic and Labour Party 3, Independent 1, Scottish National Party 1.
