GOOD NEWS DAY – Jayda Fransen and Paul Golding, leaders of the neo-Nazi Britain First are gaoled for religiously aggravated harassment

Jonathan Hoffman, ex-Vice Chair of the Zionist Federation and his close friend Paul Besser, ex Intelligence Officer for Britain First are said to be distraught

It couldn't have happened to a nice bunch of folk!

It’s an ill wind that blows no good.  Just after news arrived about McNicol’s unilateral ‘administrative suspension’ of Glyn Secker, Secretary of Jewish Voice for Labour, from the Labour Party, news arrived that the leaders of Britain First, Golding and Fransen had been gaoled at Folkestone magistrates court for 18 and 36 weeks respectively.  Details of the case can be seen here and here.

It was real hard not to be moved by these desperate appeals at the last minute

I receive regular mailings from Britain First appealing to me, as a patriot, to give them financial support !  Indeed I receive regular mailings appealing to me to join them, also as a fellow patriot.  The latest offer was life membership of Britain First - a snip at £59.  Included was a signed photo by Jayda, a membership card, a Union Jack and a scroll.  All in all a wonderful bargain.

The last mailing was literally heart breaking.  Golding wrote that 'All Jayda did was turn up and knock on their doors’.  ‘Now we both face a long prison sentence for causing 'harassment, alarm and distress' to child rapists!’  It’s real hard not to feel sorry for them and reach for the cheque book.

And who could fail to be moved by the following appeal?  ‘I have been told by my legal team that Jayda's house in London that she has owned for over ten years will be taken from her if we lose this case. I am hoping that all of our supporters help Jayda and I fight the 'Halal Food Authority' to the bitter end! By this time in just two days time, we could be settling into our new prison cells.’

For once Golding seems to have got it right. Both of them are at this very moment trying out their new accommodation.  Almost his last message to me was to tell me that:

'The thought of the throat-slitting Halal butchers seizing Jayda's home when she is rotting in a prison cell makes me extremely angry!’  I can well imagine how distressed Golding must feel at this moment.  No more mosque invasions, no more intimidation of Muslims or banging on peoples' doors with the camera rolling.

Besser with Paul Golding - what's a nice Jewish boy doing with a Christian group like this?

‘Britain First’ is what Thomas Mair, the killer of Jo Cox MP shouted before attacking her.  Darren Osborne, who tried to mow down worshippers at the Finsbury Park Mosque read Britain First posts before his attempted massacre.

Needless to say Britain First is, like most fascist and neo-Nazi groups these days a fervent supporter of the State of Israel and Zionism.  It sees in Zionism a fellow ethno-nationalist movement and Israel’s treatment of Muslims is something they deeply admire.  See Asa Winstanley in Electronic Intifada for more details.

  Paul Besser, their erstwhile 'Intelligence' Officer is a particularly keen Zionist.  The transition (so he claims) from Britain First to the Zionists and Jonathan Hoffman appears to have been seamless.
