Judge says some members of BNP do not deserve to be protected by law

Judge says some members of BNP do not deserve to be protected by law

Former BNP member fined £200 for releasing membership online

A former member of the British National Party, Matthew Single, was fined £200 after he admitted releasing membership details online.



The judge said: "Anything that is posted on the internet has the effect of opening a Pandora's box.

"What you put on the internet can never be taken from it and while there may be some members in this organisation who do not deserve to be protected by the law they should be able to expect that officers within the organisation will not abuse the information provided to them".

Any judge who thinks the law doesn't apply to everyone and not everyone is entitled to its protection needs to be debarred.

Jonno: As much as I despise what the BNP stands for even I have to agree that everybody, because they can be punished under it, is entitled to the protection of the law.
