| Description | Speaking shortly before he addressed the BNP's annual conference in Hindley Green, Wigan, he also set out the key topics on which the party will fight for seats in the House of Commons.
He said: ''For the first time ever, we are really serious challengers in a number of seats. We're looking at half a dozen really seriously with big amounts of resources.
''And on top of that we will be fighting, I'm sure, our largest number ever - so I guess in excess of 200.''
He explained why he has chosen to fight in Margaret Hodge MP's Essex constituency in his campaign to get to Westminster.
''I am going to stand in Barking,'' he said. ''The thrust of that campaign will be the housing and education problems in the borough, and the way that the Labour party has let that borough down in a catastrophic way.'' |
