FOLLOWING a story about National Front area organiser Mark Cotterill and his intention to stand for a council seat in Blackburn, which appeared in the Lancashire Evening Telegraph on January 29, Mr Cotterill has asked us to clarify the following points:

He lived in Torquay, Devon, before moving to the USA in 1995, not Blackburn.

He spent two-and-a-half years raising money for the BNP in America, not five.

We would also like to point out that Mr Cotterill is not a father of two. He is married but has no children. We apologise for the errors.
