Copeland.

Malcolm Southward manning the weekly stall in Whitehaven Market Place.

Clive Jefferson our National Elections officer handed over the rains of the very suspenseful Copeland Branch of the British National Party to Malcolm Southward on Tuesday night at a well attended joint meeting of Copeland and Allerdale in their regular venue.

A hard working nationalist Malcolm deserves his promotion to Organiser after helping to establish the Copeland group as a serious force in local politics. He has been Branch secretary since 2009 and is now working tirelessly with the dedicated Copeland activists, canvassing the target wards for the up coming local elections where we are very well placed to make the break through after many years of sustained effort.

Phil Holmes now holds the purse strings as fund holder taking over from the very successful tenure of Kevin Hurst.

"The Copeland team is rock solid and I will be proud to stand as a candidate and help the push for seats with the team this year" Clive told British National Party news. "It is a good move for the group as my time is taken with central party work and the elections department and Malcolm will take the group to the next level"
