A true friend and Patriot passes away
Councillor Nigel Williamson of Broughton, Cockermouth, Cumbria, died on Tuesday 18th March 2008, at his home, of a heart attack.Born in Whitehaven in 1957, Nigel was educated at Bransty junior and Richmond secondary school. He left school and joined the army for a time then worked locally in various jobs before moving away to London to further his education and find better employment.
Being a Cumbrian at heart it was a great joy to Nigel to be re-united with his childhood sweetheart Martine and move back to Cumbria where they married and made their home in Broughton, a small village just outside Cockermouth.
Always a British Patriot, Nigel’s increasing concerns about the nation brought him to the British National Party. He joined and soon became a tireless activist and campaigner. Nigel was instrumental in setting up the Copeland group of the BNP and was group secretary. He was also a key member of Cumbria BNP security and has helped keep the Chairman and countless others safe in meetings, the RWB festival and events as challenging as the free speech debate in the Oxford Union.
His commitment to the local community was rewarded last November when he was co-opted onto Broughton Moor Parish Council, becoming the first British National Party Parish Councillor in Cumbria. As well as his work for the Parish he was a “digi-pal” for Help the Aged, assisting with the digital switchover in Copeland, an active member of ABEX the Association of British Ex-servicemen and was due to start further volunteer work with Age Concern.
He was a true Patriot and friend and will be missed and remembered by all who knew him.
Our thoughts are with his wife Martine.
