The BNP won their first ever council seat when BNP candidate Derek Beacon was elected to the Millwall Ward in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets in 1993, after the BNP won by just 7 votes. BNP chairman Nick Griffin wrote that (some of the) electors in Millwall voted BNP because of their ability to back up the BNP program "with well-directed boots and fists", and (as reported in this TV news bulletin) BNP supporters celebrated their victory by attacking Anti-Fascists with bottles and bricks.

Derek Beacon was a former member of an overtly Nazi group called the British Movement (which went into decline after its founder Colin Jordan was convicted for stealing women's underwear). After his election, BNP councillor Derek Beacon told the "Today" newspaper that "I dont think anybody was deliberately exterminated by the Germans, it certainly wasnt 6 million Jews, maybe a couple of hundred thousand, but so what". If those statements weren't disgusting enough, this BNP councillor had also forgotten that 67,000 British civilians were deliberately exterminated by the Germans during the Blitz!
