Ex-detective stands for BNP
Ex-CID officer Michael Green has been announced as the BNPs parliamentary candidate for the Neath seat, currently held by Welsh Secretary Peter Hain.
Mr Green said: "In my years of experience as a police officer I have developed a finely tuned nose for smelling out crooks by a mile. And whenever I go within 50 miles of Westminster, I can tell you, it smells like a barnyard."
Mr Hain responded by saying that the people of Neath are "decent, hard-working, fair-minded people, who hold no truck with racism and fascism."
The Neath MP added: "I have fought against racism my entire adult life.
"I detest what the BNP stands for.
"I will be standing for all the people of Neath, whatever their faith and whatever their colour, as I have done for 19 years."
The Far-right party yesterday released the details of the six members they have selected to fight for Welsh seats during the coming General Election.
In South Wales, as well as Mr Green, the BNP has selected Kevin Edwards for the Aberavon seat and Clive Bennett for the Swansea East seat.

Dear Sir,
I take issue with comments made by Peter Hain in your interview with him published in the Evening Post on Friday, 26th March.
I have a thick skin, but nevertheless find it offensive that the likes of Peter Hain should imply that I am somehow racist or fascist because I have the temerity to dare to stand against him in an election.
I happen to be Jewish, and most of my family and extended relatives perished in Russia at the hands of far-left ‘fascists’ in the very type of communist regime that Peter Hain has worked all his life to impose on this country. It is notable that when Labour Party executive Andrew Neather recently revealed the extent of Labour’s concealed policy of mass immigration in order to deliberately create ‘a truly multi-cultural society’ , he also revealed Labour’s policy that anyone who dared to question this was to be publicly denounced as ‘racist’.
Peter Hain has actively promoted two illegal wars which have resulted in the deaths of untold thousands of innocents and many hundreds of our brave servicemen. To compound this, he has voted strongly in parliament against any sort of inquiry into MPs behaviour in launching these wars.
I refuse to be intimidated by Peter Hain’s violent UAF gang of street thugs, (the leaders of which have recently been arrested by the police in connection with ‘conspiracy to incite violence’).
It is my right and my duty to speak out when something is wrong, and it is also my right to stand as a candidate for election whilst we still can. The decent, hard-working and fair-minded people of Neath will thus have a democratic choice.
Peter Hain may well ‘detest’ this. Good.
Yours sincerely,
Michael Green.
British National Party candidate for Neath.
