David Lovibond a journalist who regularly contributed to The Spectator magazine while Boris Johnston was the editor.
BNP Controversy
Lovibond wrote articles in the Spectator attacking multiculturalism and in 2003, the Devizes based journalist wrote an article raising concerns that crime, in particular anti social and drug-related crime had escalated in Devizes. The article coincided with a campaign by the BNP to form a BNP branch in Devizes. The campaign involved sending leaflets about rising levels of crime, which were later condemned as being alarmist. The campaign was formed at a time when crime had actually gone down in the area. When the BNP members list was leaked, Lovibond was listed as a BNP activist.
