THE same British army regiment that fired at posters of Jeremy Corbyn was condemned by a court today for defacing photos of black soldiers in its unit with racist graffiti.

Judge Richard Baty at the Central London Employment Tribunal ruled that unidentified members of 3rd Battalion the Parachute Regiment drew swastikas and the word “n****r” at Merville Barracks in Colchester last January.

The incident came to light in a claim brought by two former paratroopers, South African Nkululeko Zulu and Ugandan Hani Gue, who served with British forces as commonwealth members.
