BNP founder Tyndall dies aged 71 (British RW racist party)
Edited on Tue Jul-19-05 10:12 AM by Pert_UK
"British National Party founder John Tyndall, 71, has been found dead at his home in Hove, Sussex police have said.

A veteran of the right-wing fringe of British politics, Mr Tyndall chaired the National Front, leaving in 1980.

He was due to appear in court this Thursday in Leeds alongside BNP leader Nick Griffin on race hate charges.

Sussex Police said there were no suspicious circumstances surrounding Mr Tyndall's death which was reported at 0815 BST on Tuesday."

1. The wanker would do anything to get out of a court case
Good riddance. The man had no redeeming features whatsoever.

As leader of the BNP, Mr Tyndall did nothing to assuage opinion, prepared as he was to be photographed in jackboots and armbands in front of pictures of Adolf Hitler.

Mr Tyndall was convicted of incitement to racial hatred in 1986 and has been jailed three times.
