The company believed that a BNP member's presence in the company was unhealthy for its other workers and customers, many of whom are asian.
The company maintained that there was no unfair dismissal, or race discrimination or any other wrong involved in the sacking. The BNP member was not therefore entitled to notice pay, or compensaton for his summary dismissal.
The dismissal was upheld by the Court of Appeal.

What a surprise! Another BNP troll reciting the same tired party line...

No doubt some will go that way - similarly I imagine many of today's BNP supporters will wake up and realise how they're being used and lied to by yet another 'party' of incompetent opportunists and closet Hitler-fetishists.
And I trust you include Griffin and the upper echelons of the BNP amongst today's "decadent liars"? Because that's what they are.
Unfortunately if the BNP had their way, "today's Indymedia writers" would probably be rounded up in cattle trucks and gassed...
