Would you speak out if you knew Her Majesty Revenue and Customs had misused thousands of pounds of public funds to charge you with being an extremist for heckling the British National Party at a peaceful protest in Burnley? Would you refuse to drop your case with the Civil Service Commissioners if you were warned by HMRC you would be sacked if you did not? If your wondering why I did then perhaps when you've read these internal letters, reports, and e-mails you’ll understand.

BNPGATE: The true story of how and why Her Majestys Revenue and Customs charged Andi Ali with being an extremist for heckling the BNP.
Synopsis: Nobody was more hated within Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) than Andi Ali. His academic research on the British National Party (BNP) made him powerful enemies and he was warned by HMRC management that there could be no place in the Civil Service for any one who rejected the ideology of the Neo Nazi BNP. In this extraordinary autobiography and sequel to Dead Paki Walking: A Study of the BNP, Ali explains how Her Majesty Revenue and Customs charged him with being an extremist for heckling the BNP at a peaceful protest in Burnley. How HMRC investigators switched tapes off during interviews and encouraged staff to submit false sexual allegations against him, in order to ruin his reputation and get him sacked, and how HMRC accused him of expressing support for suicide bombers, because he wore an Arabic headscarf. His most terrifying moment came when he was sacked after he refused to drop complaints of racial harassment and other criminal matters before the Police and Civil Service Commissioners. This is the story of one man's battle to stand up to racism and bigotry within Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs and uphold the liberal values he beliefs
