THE leader of far-right party Britain First is to speak at a rally in Belfast next month.

The rally "in memory of victims of terrorism" will be addressed by five speakers including former TUV councillor Jolene Bunting and Britain First leader Paul Golding.

The event is due to take place at Belfast city hall at 11.30am on Sunday, August 6.

Founded by Jim Dowson, who had links to loyalists, Britain First was formed by ex-members of the British National Party.

The ultra-nationalist party campaigns against what it claims is the Islamisation of the UK and has carried out "invasions" of mosques.
