| Description | The British National party tonight vowed to take legal action after its entire membership list was published online in breach of a court injunction.
The party blamed disgruntled former employees for posting details of the names, postal and email addresses and ages of more than 10,000 supporters.
Details of the hobbies, professions and other areas of expertise of many members are thought to be included.
The membership list dates from late last year, the BNP said, and its publication had been prevented under a high court injunction obtained in April.
Embarrassed party bosses have complained to the police and are seeking legal advice to prevent the further spread of the data.
Simon Darby, the BNP's spokesman, said he found out this morning that the injunction had been broken, describing the posting as "malevolent and spiteful". |
