BNP Euro election candidate filled his Facebook page with race-hate remarks
A British National Party European elections candidate who set his Facebook status to, ‘W***s go home Gurkhas very welcome’, has denied being a racist.
Eddy O’Sullivan, who is standing for the Brussels parliament with BNP party leader Nick Griffin, posted a series of offensive comments on the website and even joined a group called F*** Islam.
But he left his Facebook profile public instead of setting it to private.
Mr O’Sullivan, 49, Salford organiser for the party, admitted posting the comments but denied they were racist.
However party bosses say he is facing an investigation and possible suspension from the BNP and deselection as a candidate.
