A MEETING of the BNP in Winsford has been cancelled.

The controversial political party was due to meet at Winsford United FC tonight, Wednesday, but police confirmed this has now been cancelled.

Club secretary Bob Astles said: "One of our members asked if he could bring a few friends in for a meeting but we didn't know what it was.

"We are not a political club, we never have been. It's certainly not going ahead."

It is likely the meeting will now be moved to another location.
