Anybody that calls me a Nazi, I want to know about; [they] will have me to answer to.”The councillor’s reticence on such issues has something to do with the BNP’s growing reputation for having nothing to say in Burnley. Brian Turner, the BNP councillor, who was waiting for Mr Howard to leave the Burnleywood one-stop-shop community centre, denied that he believed in repatriation of Asians He said: “Those are not the views of the Burnley party That’s not our policy. “They are expressing what local people want to hear and they’ve built that [school],” he said. (It is being paid for by Lancashire County Council, 40 miles away in Preston.)Mr Bailey believes the BNP, which holds seven seats in Burnley and is his party of choice, is “trying to take things a bit more upmarket” but it is their willingness to ensure that he gets “at least the same as the Pakis get” which seems to satisfy him most. “They want more of the Pakis out, and that’s good as far as I’m concerned,” he said.Mr Bailey’s faith in the BNP’s racist ideals was seemingly in contrast to some of Burnley’s BNP councillors, who are too ashamed to espouse them. The RMT is calling on our members not to use the vehicles until the cause of the accident is conclusively established.”Meanwhile, details emerged today of an attempt by two rail workers to stop the runaway wagon involved in the fatal accident.One of the men was injured as he ran after the 17-ton trailer and held on to it with his bare hands, while the other worker tried to push rails from the vehicle in a desperate bid to block its path.Details were included in a report by Network Rail safety director John Abbott, which confirmed that the trailer had been secured by pieces of wood..

Brakes fitted to the trailer which killed four railway workers were not functional, an examination by health and safety experts has found, it was revealed today. Rachel Allwood, who has suffered from anorexia and bulimia, has joined a new research team, which will explore connections between schooling experiences and the development of eating disorders. “The programme, RCAir, is ARC but in broadcast form,” says the college.* New research into eating disorders being carried out at Loughborough university will use the personal experiences of a PhD student. The students are also broadcasting on Imperial College’s student station (at or 99.9 AM) between 2pm and 4pm every Saturday. Copies will also be left on tube seats and in other places in London to try to raise awareness of the project subliminally, says the college’s Sue Bradburn. Unfortunately the project petered out, but it is back now, with a new name – ARC. The first issue is out this week and includes an interview with the architect Will Alsop and a piece about Ark, based on a book about the magazine by Dr Alex Seago ARC is free and available at the college.

“Released three times a year and distributed worldwide, Ark was a cutting-edge student publication that changed the face of style magazines for ever,” enthuses the college. “Problems may start over something simple like loud music or a dog, then degenerate into a full-scale war,” says Professor Paisley. “At this stage the parties don’t want to agree – they just hate each other.”The challenge for the competing trainees was to try to persuade their mock clients to settle out of court. “Most solicitors would regard ending up in court as a complete failure, because it’s far too costly,” says Professor Paisley. The team from Glasgow won the contest, and will represent Scotland against teams from around the world at an international competition at the Glasgow Graduate School of Law at the end of March.* Readers of a certain vintage may remember Ark, a student magazine produced by the Royal College of Art between 1950 and 1978. The nuisance neighbour theme was not only topical but ideal for testing the trainee solicitors’ counselling skills, because disputes between neighbours tend to be fraught with emotion. This is a contest open to Scottish law graduates taking a Diploma in Legal Practice which entails simulating meetings between solicitors and clients.

The 2004 competition took place at the University of Aberdeen’s school of law last month and involved teams from Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Dundee and Glasgow universities, the only institutions to offer the diploma.
“Scottish ministers are putting through more law on property matters than any other area at the moment, and nuisance neighbours are top of the action list,” says Professor Roderick Paisley, a practising solicitor who co-ordinates the diploma at Aberdeen. Nuisance neighbours were the subject of this year’s Scottish client counselling competition. You can often get involved in neighbour disputes, which can be quite frustrating, and we do try to solve most complaints informally. Complaints regarding commercial premises can be more fraught. If owners fail to cooperate, we can serve a formal notice, but court action can be a lengthy process.”The positive points of my job are that I can manage my own workload, which is interesting and always changing.”.
