Seriously though I can't see any justification for bundling someone out the meeting like that, I'd imagine the Police might be interested in the level of violence involved.
I also think they'd be interested in the gloves on display in the bottom left, they look suspiciously like a pair of SAP gloves to me and could easily end up with the wearer getting a trip to court.

Actually I think it might be a case of gingerism...;)

Bikers leather gloves mate. I used to have a pair similar in design when I was still a petrolhead. :)

The knuckle just looks a little bit too rounded to not have some kind of 'reinforcement' in it. Could be entirely innocent but I'd be having a quick look at them if I saw someone at a BNP meeting wearing a pair.

Yeah I've seen the reinforced ones with hard panels around the knuckles, I've just never seen ones looking like the pair in the photo.

This is all getting a bit tenuous now. They've decided the BNP is indirectly racist because the new members are met at home?

According to Griffin they have made this optional so its not exactly stopping things.

This brings a whole new meaning to "political infighting".....

BNP official Mark Collett questioned over alleged threat to kill Nick Griffin

Police arrest publicity director accused by BNP leadership of plotting 'palace coup'

The BNP has been thrown into turmoil weeks ahead of the general election after a senior party member was arrested for allegedly threatening to kill Nick Griffin.

Key party officials have been summoned to a meeting tomorrow to discuss "urgent organisational matters" after Griffin and colleagues made statements to police resulting in the BNP's publicity director, Mark Collett, being detained on Thursday.

Collett, 29, had been due to contest Labour MP David Blunkett's Sheffield Brightside seat in the election but has been stripped of his position within the party which accused him of conspiring to launch a "palace coup" against Griffin.

Hopefully he will lose his deposit and a good few bob in the upcoming election, he is an utter disgrace.

Mr Griffin has published his expenses - he has eight members of staff, apparently.
