Showing his total lack of understanding of the values of democracy and freedom of speech the Conservative Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the constituency if Chippenham in Wiltshire has refused to attend a hustings event if the British National Party candidate was allowed to attend. Faced with the possible self exclusion of the Conservative candidate the organisers gave in and banned our candidate Cllr Simpkins from the event.
The gentleman in question is Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones, otherwise known as the “Black Farmer”. Being one of David Cameron’s ‘A’ list candidates he was parachuted into the constituency.
From an article in the Bath Chronicle:
The West's most prominent black would-be MP has refused to share a debating stage with his rival from the British National Party, to avoid race becoming an issue at the election.
Wilfred Emmanuel Jones told the organisers of tonight's hustings event in Bradford on Avon he would boycott the event if BNP candidate Michael Simpkins was allowed to take part.
So the organisers, the town's Senior Citizens' Forum, decided to bar the BNP man.
Mr Emmanuel Jones, who runs a food-producing business called The Black Farmer, is standing for the Conservatives in the new Chippenham seat, which promises to be a key marginal battle between the Tories and the Lib Dems.
and continues…
Hustings organiser Alan Knight told Mr Simpkins that every other candidate had agreed to take part in the debate if the BNP were included, except Mr Emmanuel Jones.
So he calls himself The Black Farmer, promotes himself politically and in a retail capacity as such and denies democracy on the grounds that he does not want race to be an issue yet he is the only candidate mentioning it.
I trust by now that you can understand the title.
below is a clip from the BNP candidate Cllr Simpkins.
