AS the leader of the British National Party in Thurrock I feel compelled to write in to complain about the way that Thurrock politicians are masquerading behind third party organisations that they helped to create.

Yash Gupta helped win a £280,000 grant from the Home Office to set up and establish the racist Thurrock Racial Unity Support Taskgroup which caters exclusively for anyone from an ethnic minority background.

He was also influential in obtaining a £750,000 donation for TRUST from all of Thurrock's taxpayers despite the fact that the money was not going to be used for the benefit of all.

TRUST and Councillor Gupta's side operations are nothing more than a campaigning arm of the new Nazi Labour Party.

It's about time that this cynical attempt at third party electioneering came to an end.
