British Power & British Glory
Editor’s Note: The following is a transcript by John Morgan of a British National Party stump speech, once thought lost, that Jonathan Bowden gave in Liverpool on November 28, 2008.

Some unintelligible passages are marked with question marks; please post a comment below if you have corrections or can fill in the gaps. (more…)
