BNP leader barred from Queen's garden party. 4 News. 22 July 2010. The leader of the British National Party tells 4 News the "British political elite" is to blame for a decision to revoke his invitation to today's royal garden party. Nick Griffin has described the move as "politically motivated". Mr Griffin had been eligible to be one of the party's 8,000 guests in his capacity as an elected member of the European parliament. The BNP leader was in his hotel waiting to set off for the event when he learned that Buckingham Palacehad withdrawn his invitation. A statement from the palace said Mr Griffin would not be welcome at the event, "due to the fact he has overtly used his personal invitation for Party political purposes through the media.

In an interview with Channel 4 News, the BNP leader said the 'British political elite' was behind the decision to bar him from Buckingham Palace. He said: "If the palace really had a rule to say that you mustn't make anything that could be perceived as political out of this, it shoud have been in the list of rules along with 'don't bring a mobile phone', 'don't bring a camera' and it's not."
