BNP clash with protestors in Kendal
THERE have been angry scenes in Kendal after the British National Party (BNP) set up a campaign stall in front of the war memorial.
Police were called to the scene on Stricklandgate after an altercation between BNP leafleters and members of the public.
A spokesman for the BNP said the party were planning to field candidates in each of Cumbria’s districts, including South Lakeland, during the forthcoming local elections.
