Unmasked: Extreme Far Right

An undercover reporter investigates what some on the UK's far right really look like and discovers it's not all swastikas and hooligans - and hears of big plans for the future.

My name is Dan Jones.

Except that's not my real name.

You can't know my real name, because some of the people I am going to tell you about could be dangerous.

I will walk you through how I managed to infiltrate and became a trusted member of a far right group called 'Patriotic Alternative'.

Month after month I wear a "mask", use an alias, to find out what's really going on.

I spend a weekend at PA's summer camp, and even manage to get into their secretive annual conference.

What I discover is that it's not all swastikas and football hooligans.

Some of PA's members were civil servants, an NHS worker, and even a teacher.

In this year-long investigation, I reveal what it's like to be undercover, my double life and the constant fear of being outed.

All to uncover what some PA member's true beliefs are.
