http://news.scotsman.com/archive.cfm?id=489882005      Angry clashes between BNP and Socialists       BRITISH National Party supporters were involved in angry confrontations with rival activists at the election count in Glasgow.     Police had to step in to control opposing groups at the citys SECC. The clashes followed the decision by Labours Mohammed Sarwar and other candidates for the Glasgow Central seat to refuse to share the stage with the BNP.     Scottish Socialist Party activists confronted members of the far-right party. Following heated exchanges, the Socialists started a chant of fascists out which echoed around the hall.     Strathclyde Police officers stepped in to separate both parties and warned the Socialists they would be asked to leave the building if the confrontation continued. Minutes later, in a separate incident, SSP MSP Rosie Kane confronted the BNP activists and police were again required to defuse the situation.     Glasgow Central candidates refused to take to the stage with the BNP for the declaration.     BNP candidate Walter Hamilton, who received 671 votes, stood yards away from the other candidates with party supporters.     Labours Mohammed Sarwar, who won the seat, said: The candidates in Glasgow Central made a unanimous decision that we would not share the platform with the BNP tonight.     Overall, the BNP saw their share of the vote rise 0.5 per cent, polling 191,469, but winning no seats.
