Roy West Acquitted


Today at Oldham Magistrate's Court, in the latest chapter of the long running battle between Roy West and John Taylor, Mr West was acquitted of harassment. Criminal charges were dismissed and the prosecution offered no evidence. Mr West was given a two year restraining order not to contact senior Labour councillor Taylor.

Mr West, who is well known on the Tameside political scene having stood several times as a BNP and independent candidate (twice against Mr Taylor), will still be able to campaign, leaflet and attend local District Assembly's etc and also to stand for election.

Let's hope this common sense resolution brings this saga to a conclusion.

Well done Roy, wish I could have been there myself but I completely forgot the date of the trial until yesterday.

Hopefully this can be used as a platform to prove that it is you who are being harassed by various agencies.

Concerned Bloke said...

This is excellent news.
Roy 1, Taylor 0.

I think we need to understand why "the prosecution offered no evidence"

Obviously there was never any evidence, but why was it allowed to go so far, and at what cost, to whom?

Mind Readers R Us said...

Reasoned, specific criticism of Mr Taylor (or any councillor) is fine, but make sure you've never met West in the last thirty years or it might be portrayed as you working on the latter's behalf.

peace at last said...

I am pleased for both of them that it is over and I hope they have both learned a valuable lesson.

SSGB said...

Let's hope he can attend the next Dukinfield District Assembly without being grabbed by the totally impartial police.

The Real Duki Lad said...

This is the best result possible. I know the pair of them and neither are bad people. They both dug in and treated it is a game and brought it to the brink. Justice and common sense won the day. Now please let the pair of them get on without their lives without any stirring.

what about those expenses t-shirts that got the duki trios backs up? West had a threatening letter warning him he should stop wearing them.

Duki Lad said...

Both were foolish and both accept they made mistakes. Let us all work towards reconciliation rather than division. The drama is over, nothing to see here, move along please.

SerpentSlayer said...

Reconciliation, after what that fat thick thug has done to Roy?

There should be charges brought against Taylor in my mind, how much money has been spent on his vendetta?

Anonymous said...

Great news. Pleased for Roy :D

Dish it out but can't take it said...

The difference of course is that when Taylor put out all those offensive 'Nazi' 'fascist' etc leaflets, West didn't go crying to the police like a little girl.

And by the way I'm not acting on behalf of ANYONE.

Duki Lad said...

Come on now lads and lasses, let's drop it. John knows he has made mistakes as does Roy too. The pair of them are no longer enemies so let's just move along and look to the future.

SSGB said...

Forgive and forget hey.

Easy to say when you weren't on the receiving end isn't it.

Labour = Traitor said...

Ironic it was in Oldhamstan and West is/was BNP and Taylor's a representative of the party that flooded Britain with immigrants 2000-2010, and that vast numbers of those were from Pakistan and Bangladesh.

Duki Lad said...

Why do you want to persist in pushing it? John is not well and Roy is still in hot water over another matter. John wants to put the whole thing behind him and move on and I bet Roy does too. I will ask him next time I see him and give you his answer on this blog.

Alvin Straight said...

No doubt his car will no longer be parked outside the Kugows then.

concerned bloke said...

I think it's fair to ask why the case got this far and was then suddenly dropped. If the outcome had been negative for Roy I'm sure the story would have been all over the local paper. So, what happened to the evidence?

Duki born and bred said...

No evidence was needed because both parties agreed that the feud should come to an end without a trial, which it did. From now on the two of them are no longer at odds WHICH IS GOOD NEWS BECAUSE i LIKE THE PAIR OF THEM.

No evidence,that`s the proof of a corrupt organisation,seeking police
involvement,and found wanting when it comes to the day of reckoning.
I warned New Charter that should I be named as as an aid to RW in their supposed evidence, as already indicated, then they could expect serious implications direct from me to Munro.
RW you retain the right to go to a District Asssembly meeting in accordance with you human rights to
offer any information you can verify.
I am not in hibernation just simply
obtaining more confirmed examples of TMBC sleaze wherever and whoever is involved,and that takes time
RW simply rest easy after your traumatic experiences and your family should live unhindered and at peace.

'When anyone uses your name', yes, don't take the Lord Thy Taylor's name in vain. Pathetic.

As for this other 'case' it sounds like it's got more holes than a Swiss cheese.

The local press went all out last time to report the fact that West had been convicted. Now he's been acquitted will they give the same level of coverage?

In this quote you can see why Christianity is nothing but a scourge on the mind of those it afflicts. I think, like another has suggested, that Christianity should not be treated as a religion, but instead as a medical condition.

I would have been happier if Confucianism or Buddhism had been imposed on us, better those distant creeds than this terrible middle eastern affliction of the mind.

Atheist said...

Christianity, despite its many inherent flaws and contradictions and Christian values have, in the past, saved Britain and many of its people from the worst excesses of man's innate barbarity.
The Christian based family and patriotic values that held such sway and significance for millions for several centuries stood our nation in good stead.
The modern 'version' of hypertolerant, feminised, weak kneed Christianity is, in virtually all fundamental aspects, its antithesis.
Perverts, cowards, weaklings and intellectuals, who inhabit a meaningless, centreless void of self obsession, are now at its helm.
They hide behind a mask of 'goodness' and blanket, deliberately unreasoning compassion, often directed towards evil people and cultures, for one reason: fear. Fear of fighting back, fear of standing up for TRUE Christian values and principles, fear of going against the liberal establishment flow.
God help Britain, because the Godless, craven hearted non-entities who purport to speak for him in our country are amongst its very worst enemies.

No evidence, yet this went to court? You want to seek a real solicitor that is a specialist in civil liberties. I've found this one in Manchester, a big law firm which does legal aid:

http://www.stephensons.co.uk/site/individuals/public_law_civil_liberties/discompliant/

Take John Taylor, Sandra Stewart, Tameside Council and New Charter for every penny.

To say this went to court with no evidence is a complete joke. The harassing letters you have had yourself from the Dukinfield councillors should support this in addition to the fuzz coming to your property at Taylor's whim. This is very sleazy Roy. Don't let them get away with it.

I would say that the case will massively backfire on Taylor and Co. The case being dropped will give you extra credibility. Seek a FOI from the police, cps, courts, council and New Charter to see how much public money was wasted.

I spoke to Liam Billington about this and he reckons the authorities will now leave you alone now that they have lost. They wont want to be seen to fail a second time round.

If you can't stand the heat... said...

Waste of everyone's time and money. Should never have gone to court.

Duki Lad said...

It's not quite that simple. The prosecution did offer no evidence and the judge accepted and aquitted on the condition Roy agrees not to contact or harass John. Both parties agreed and the matter is at an end unless Roy harrasses or tries to intimidate John.

Don't dish it out if you can't take it said...

Wouldn't have thought a 27 year veteran of the local political scene and 'anti-fascist' warrior from the 70s would be so easy to 'intimidate'.
No doubt West overreacted to some things, but that's hardly surprising given some of the vile, gutter rubbish put out against him.
And I don't remember HIM crying to the police.

Christianity may have been helpful in dragging European man out of the swamps and dirt of primitive paganism, it has long since outgrown its usefulness. It is a foreign and alien religion with doctrines that do next to nothing in reinforcing national and racial ties. It is international in spirit, and purveys the leftist brotherhood of man virtue.

It is a different matter entirely for Jews, which is why such a small insignificant race has (against all odds) survived two millenia and remains ethnically healthy to this day. Ever more people on the right are rediscovering our celtic / nordic / teutonic pagan roots and heritage, which could prove essential in helping some portion of the white race to survive long-term.

SerpentSlayer said...

I take exception to the idea that European man was primitive under paganism, it simply is not true.
Civilisation was a product of Pagan peoples, the ancient Sumerians, the originators of the first civilisation were pagan, as were the Egyptians, the Greeks, the Romans, all European peoples.

I would also challenge the idea of non-civilised Aryan peoples being primitive. Contained within their native religion was an understanding of life far greater than that possessed by Christians.

Pagan Slavs, Celts and germans understood how nature worked, where their lives fitted into the grand scheme of things, the value of blood and mental and physical prowess.

They understood that allowing the weak to pass on their genes was harmful for the future of their tribes and that the nourishment of the strong and healthy was valuable.

Our ancestors have never been primitive in understanding their world, some like the Greeks were more advanced than Christian society has ever been.

Christianity made us weak, it taught us to bow while our pockets were turned out by priests, to see our ancestors and ourselves as sinful, to see some being not of our blood as our superior.

I hope sincerely that veneration of our own blood and respect for our ancestors and the soil beneath us continues it's growth and that Christianity, like Marxism, is one day confined to the dustbin of history.

It will be intersting to see if the bnp decided to return to Dukinfield?
If we see a return of the SMEAR leaflets and personal attack leaflets?
JUST A THOUGHT.
After what the Judge said in court.

Court Watcher on the day said...

The bnp have every right to stand candidates if they wan't.
Have we seen an end to the SMEAR leaflets in Dukinfield?
The Judge said he was glad it did not go to trial. He said it would have been a very messy trial with mud thrown on both sides.
If the bnp decide to stand in Dukinfield, they should keep all the SMEAR leaflets for any future court case.

West defence solicitor asked for a deal the CPS will have agreed it, so the trial is stopped, it depends on what the prosecutors were looking for.
Big danger in this deal is West will have to behave for two years, with Taylor and hes got a prison sentence hanging over him also with the Kugows, Wednesdays trial pre dated his prison sentence but now the new restraining order is live from last week.
This means any breach of the order hes back in court and the prison sentence kicks in, had the trial gone ahead with a guilty verdict his hands would have been slapped the harassment charge did not contain any racial or threatening behaviour.
The details of the restraining order would be interesting to see,some can be very challenging breaching them usually means prison ,courts don't like being ignored.

Raus! Raus! said...

Wasn't there an allegation that New Charter had stopped his house swap?
If he did move that would at least remove him from the presence of the Kugows and reduce the chances of further trouble from inciteful plant pots etc.

Neil Jameson said...

West only stands out and gets disproportionate attention because he's one of a miniscule number of Tamesiders actually prepared to stand up against the stitched up local political scene with its cosy two party club.
Weird he might be, but in my view every ward should have people prepared to unsettle the complacent and inadequate cliques and individuals at the top.

Today the revolution from 1917 marches on. It wears different masks not one but many. Death from a thousand slits is still death. Now the USSR is fighting us from within our formerly sovereign nations with our cash, our children.

They simply morphed into universal liberalism, political correctness and self hating useful idiots right here at home. No longer are bombers needed. Demographics is the A-bomb of our day along with a fear of addressing truth.

In my opinion Roy has been treated the way he has been because he is no longer in the BNP. He is a freelance, an example of "Leaderless resistance" . Something impossible for the state to infiltrate, to place a stooge at the top of.

If he were still in the BNP he would have been set up by his own side. Maybe not locally but at a higher level.

Members of a safety valve party are no threat. but a genuine resister is!

The enemies within said...

The BNP expanded rapidly and became increasingly influential until 2008/9 (1 million votes and 2 MEPs in the European Elections). After this high water mark, although it had internal problems previously, it appeared to become totally directionless and disorganised.

Good to hear of Roy's aquittal and hope the 'respectable' gangsters lay off him now.

I know the sort of people you mean but I don't agree that they hate themselves - quite the opposite, i'd say.

I see a clear pattern here --West gets a suspended prison sentence, he receives a solicitors letter warning of his conduct with Taylor, he then gets a two year restraining order.
