Britain First leader convicted of charge under the Terrorism Act
Britain First leader Paul Golding (left) leaves Westminster Magistrates' Court in London

PAUL GOLDING, the leader of far-right political group Britain First, was yesterday found guilty of an offence under the Terrorism Act.

Mr Golding was convicted after refusing to give the police access to his mobile phone on his return from a political trip to Russia in October last year.

Westminster magistrates’ court heard that he’d travelled at the invitation of the far-right Liberal Democratic Party of Russia, which he described as a “right-wing conservative patriotic group.”
