Shock at front page
Published Date:

I was shocked and amazed by last week's front page of the Bourne edition.
Never before have I seen the Mercury accord front page coverage including photo, bio pic and party propaganda given to a single candidate in an election.
The fact that the candidate in question represents a party whose extreme views are obnoxious to the majority of right-thinking people only makes it worse.
I do not contest the right of the BNP to field a candidate, but to give such credence to these extremists on the front page of the Mercury is an editorial decision that I for one find curious.
Many people from the Bourne area have contacted me to express shock and disgust at the article.
