The BNP lie machine is in full force this evening as it tries to limit the damage from the fallout of the police moving the Everton v Stoke City on 14 March. The BNP is trying to claim that the match has been shifted because of an anti-fascist mobilisation.

But the truth is quite different.

The police moved the game for fear that a section of fans from Stoke City would join the BNP event. It should be remembered that it was a violent rampage by Stoke City fans in Oldham, in late April 2001, that unleashed a chain of events that led to the riots.

The Liverpool Echo has this evening ran the story prominantly and the headline makes clear where the blame lies: Everton match switched for BNP
