Mike Reid's daughter wants to fight for the BNP Thugs
Fresh from the shocking recent revelation that the brother of former England footballer Stuart Pearce is an active member of the British National Party, there is worrying news that the party can now boast another relative of a national treasure within its unseemly ranks.
To the noise of collective jaw-dropping among EastEnders fans everywhere, it transpires Angela Reid, the youngest daughter of the late but much-loved stand-up Mike Reid, was due to stand on behalf of the BNP as a candidate at next month's council by-election in Braintree, Essex. The election has come up after the Conservative councillor Bill Rose recently decided to stand down.
Reid was apparently all set to contest the seat until the weekend, when I'm told she decided to withdraw from the race for "personal reasons".
"She would have been an excellent candidate for us and it's a terrible shame that she won't be running this time but we've got plenty of candidates for the future elsewhere," says a BNP spokesman, hastily adding that her U-turn had nothing to do with any political misgivings she may be feeling.
"Not at all, she is 100 per cent behind the party," he insisted. "Her withdrawal is purely personal.
"In fact, she is one of our loyalist members and strongest supporters."
For all their words of support, party activists must secretly be seething.
Since Reid's withdrawal has occurred after the deadline for candidate applications, the party will now not be able to run a replacement. Fresh from the shocking recent revelation that the brother of former England footballer Stuart Pearce is an active member of the Briti... more -

If Hip Hop is with Him, Who Can Be Against Him? (Everybody?!?)
This MTV article asks the question, "Can hip hop support Obama without hurting his campaign?" My answer is a resounding, YES! The fact that Senator Obama has made it this far with a campaign that reaches the hearts and minds of Americans young and old is a testimony of how far we have come. Nevertheless, we still have a ways to go. In the meantime, it seems REAL that Senator Obama, with Sen. Biden as his running mate, can take over the White House for at least the next four years and give to many Americans, including myself, something we have lacked for the past eight years: HOPE!

Is Tavis Smiley A Hater?
LOS ANGELES - Tavis Smiley is all wound up. His voice is rough from too much vocalizing, but the host of public television's Tavis Smiley talk show and public radio's The Tavis Smiley Show is on an oratorical roll about race, politics, and his fellow black, Barack Obama, the expected Democratic presidential nominee.
"There is no such thing in America as race transcendence, and Obama's going to find that out real soon," says Smiley, leaning into his words. As he sermonizes, he sheds suit jacket, tie and belt in succession, getting comfy in his spacious suite at KCET in Los Angeles after taping two installments of Tavis Smiley (12:30 a.m. Tuesday through Friday, 1:30 a.m. Saturday on UNC-TV).
Despite the peaceful vibe inside his sanctuary, with its African masks and scented candle, Smiley frowns. "There's no such thing as ‘post-racial' in America, because if you push the envelope too far, you're going to hear about it." Smiley should know. For months he has been the object of an Internet firestorm for his perceived negative comments about Obama on commercial radio's syndicated The Tom Joyner Morning Show.
Smiley found himself between race and a hard place when he criticized Obama on-air for choosing not to appear on Smiley's annual State of the Black Union cablecast on C-SPAN in February.
Smiley's remarks sparked a blaze of invective by black bloggers, who questioned Smiley's loyalty, motives and ego. LOS ANGELES - Tavis Smiley is all wound up. His voice is rough from too much vocalizing, but the host of public television's Tavi... more -
