“The Sun” lied about British National Party during an election period – Are you surprised?

I, for one, am not!

On May 18th the ‘Sun’ newspaper printed a story under the title: -

"LUMLEY: BNP SICKOS SLUR HERO GURKHA”.

The scandalous lying rag said that a leaflet, which was an obvious forgery, had been put out by British National Party activist Adam Walker.

Today they have printed the following:

We have been asked to make clear by Adam Walker, a British National Party candidate in the recent European elections, that an election leaflet criticising the rights of Gurkhas to stay in the UK and featuring Corporal Kumar Pun, recently killed in action, was not published by Mr Walker or issued by his party as we stated on May 18th.

Should you wish to view the original it is entitled: Election 'leaflet'
