Just in case you get stopped in the streets or are asked to loan Methodist premises to the charity "Soldiers off the street" read Harry's Place first.
Update 09/10/10: I had a phone call yesterday afternoon from someone purporting to represent this charity. Two comments subsequently appeared one saying "I'm glad not all methodists are not small minded like you". a position that probably has wide spread support across the Connexion.
The caller claimed they are taking legal action against Harry's Place, and pointed out that by linking to that post I too would be subject to legal challenge. Harry's Place tell me they know nothing of this legal action.
The caller was anxious to point out that the charity was established by former members of the British National Party, and are no longer in membership. I am happy to clarify this point.
Earlier this week I had a lovely note from the charity ActionAid. I had queried whether they had any involvement with the film "No Pressure". They assured me they had no involvement and disassociated themselves from the film.
Just because an organisation is a registered charity it does not mean that its work and motivation are not open to scrutiny and challenge.
If readers wish to support an organisation that has been established by former members of the BNP that is their right.
Each year I make a substantial donation to the Annual Poppy Day appeal, I also give to Help for Heroes. I don't need to funnel my support for Britain's servicemen and women through the hands of former members of the BNP. Other readers are free to take different approach.

Your totally out of order with this one, everyone knows they are not bnp and that harrys place and nothing british used this charity for political points on the run up to the election (torys run nothing british). The charity commission would not have given them charity status if what they are saying is true. I'm glad not all methodists are not small minded like you.
AS AN OUT REACH SUPPORT WORKER FOR SOLDIERS OFF THE STREET I FIND THIS ATTACK VERY UPSETTING,MANY HOUR I WALK THE STREET HELPING EX FORCES AND TO DATE MY WORK IS STILL ON GOING.
MORE UPSETTING IS THAT AS CHRISTAIN i HONEST AND TRANSPARENT AND TOLD NOT TO JUDGE OTHER.
LUKE 6;49 "DO NOT JUDGE,AND YOU WILL NOT BE JUDGED.DO NOT CONDEMN,YOU WILL NOT BE CONDEMNED.FORGIVE,AND YOU WILL BE FORGIVEN.
IT MAKE ME SICK AS I AM ALSO A SERVING SOLDIER JUST HOPE I NEVER HAVE TO KNOCK ON YOUR CHURCHS DOOR.
Well done Methodist Preacher these should be exposed for what they are scum. As the last post says he is a serving soldier he should know better than to be mixed up with these people!
Anonymous, I liked your comment in parts. Even with their distorted views they are still made by our creator God and he doesn't make rubbish or scum. Let us hope they repent and start a new life.
