Introducing... 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.
Warning: There are parts of this episode that some might find offensive and disturbing.
My name is Dan Jones.
Except that鈥檚 not my real name.
You can鈥檛 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 鈥楶atriotic Alternative鈥.
Month after month I wear a 鈥渕ask鈥, use an alias, to find out what鈥檚 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鈥檚 not all swastikas and football hooligans.
Some of PA鈥檚 members were civil servants, an NHS worker, and even a teacher.
In this year-long investigation, I reveal what it鈥檚 like to be undercover, my double life and the constant fear of being outed.
All to uncover what some PA member鈥檚 true beliefs are.
