A BNP leader being probed again for death threats

A BNP leader is being probed after a chilling death threat against Labour peer Baroness Uddin appeared on his Facebook site.

BNP's deputy leader Roger Phillips, 42, allegedy posted a message saying: "were going to hang you one day. Regards the BNP."

He used the site 15 minutes earlier to urge members of the far-Right party to: "Message this bitch and tell her what we think of her". Bangladesh-born Muslim Lady Uddin, 50, has faced allegations of fiddling £30,000 expenses on a home. But she denied wrong-doing and no charges were brought

It is understood she has received other death threats this month. A Labour source said: "She finds it extremely upsetting and disturbing."


Phillips, 42, BNP deputy organiser for West Wales, is on bail after claims that a film-maker received threatening calls. The BNP and Phillips were not available for comment
