The dismissal of Colin Jordan, leader of the British National Socialist movement, from his teaching position in a Coventry school, was recommended today by the school’s governors.
Jordan was suspended from his teaching job as an aftermath of a riotous anti-Semitic rally of his group in Trafalgar Square on July 1. The governors’ recommendation that his suspension be continued and his services terminated by the school at the end of the year will now go before the Coventry school government subcommittee.
