Barclays closes BNP accounts after secret film exposes racism

[Rose Siding]

Barclays Bank moved to close accounts held by the British National party last night after its members were secretly filmed delivering racist tirades and admitting violence against Muslims.

About five accounts linked to the BNP, not all of which are registered in the party's name, will be closed, a source at Barclays familiar with the matter said. The country's third biggest bank was already reviewing its position on the BNP before the BBC's film, The Secret Agent, was watched by over 4 million viewers on Thursday night.

Robin Allen QC, who advises the Commission for Racial Equality on its interventions in incitement to racial hatred cases, said: "On the basis of what was shown on television on Thursday, there seems to be strong evidence for a prosecution for incitement to racial ha tred against several members of the British National party."

The BBC reporter who spent six months undercover with the BNP recorded another of the group's members, Steve Barkham, confessing to taking part in a racially motivated attack on an Asian man during the 2001 Bradford riots. Both Mr Barkham and Dave Midgley, a BNP candidate for council elections, have now been expelled by the party.

1. I hope they lock him up and throw away the key.

Or they could squirt dog shit through his letterbox and beat him up etc.. like the BNP do to non-whites.

2. Billy's joined the National Front. He always was a little runt.

He's got his hands in the air with the other c*nts. You've got to humanize yourself.
