The far-right party is tipped to provoke a storm by putting a candidate up in the East Kilbride area for the Scottish Parliament elections. But East Kilbride MSP (1) (Management Service Provider or Managed Service Provider) An organization that manages a customer's computer systems and networks which are either located on the customer's premises or at a third-party datacenter. Andy Kerr yesterday launched a scathing attack on the party, calling them 'neo-Nazis'. BNP BNP B-type natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide Physiology A 32-residue peptide hormone produced predominantly in the ventricles, secreted in response to fluid overload–eg, CHF. See Atrial natriuretic peptide. insiders claim a candidate will stand in the East Kilbride and Strathaven area and elsewhere, including Kilmarnock. Kerr, who is also Finance Minister, is outraged at the right- wing group's plans. He said: "I am under no doubt people will run the BNP out of town. I have campaigned for years against these people. They are neo-Nazis and knowing the people in the constituency, it is unlikely the BNP will be successful." The news of the Scottish campaign comes after they recently won a record fifth council seat in the north of England. SNP MSP Linda Fabiani who lives in the Strathaven area, also moved to denounce the BNP. She said: "John Swinney made a commitment that we would not share platform with any party who would entice racial hatred. "Jack McConnell agreed with that stance as did David McLetchie."
