		</div><p>The Brexit Party has expelled a local councillor in England and dismissed a part-time official after they were filmed by undercover reporters making racist comments.</p>
<p>The two activists were filmed by Channel 4 News during campaigning in Hartlepool where party chairman Richard Tice is standing in the General Election.</p>
<p>Councillor David Mincher complained Muslims were “outbreeding us” and “live like animals”, and boasted he once tried to bury a pig’s head under a mosque that was being built in the town.</p>
<p>He was also shown making a series of derogatory remarks about Pakistanis, Somalis and Turks.</p>
<p>Mr Mincher later told the programme he made up the story about burying a pig’s head “as a stupid act of showing off to your reporter”.</p>
<p>Gordon Parkin, who was said to be the party’s assistant manager for the North East region, was also shown complaining Muslims were “outbreeding us”.</p>
<p>Asked why there were comparatively few immigrants in the town, he replied, he said it was because people “won’t have them” and that they “persecute the bastards”.</p>
<p>In a statement Mr Tice said the party took immediate action when they became aware of the “appalling” comments, withdrawing the whip from Mr Mincher and dismissing Mr Parkin.</p>
<p><em>“Both I and the Brexit Party totally condemn the hideous remarks in question in the strongest possible terms,”</em> he said.</p>
<p><em>“I would take the gravest exception to any attempt by Channel 4 to suggest that I or the Brexit Party in any way share, condone or was aware of these views and matters.”</em></p>
<p>He said the undercover reporters may have breached electoral law and accused Channel 4 of being prepared to go to the “most extreme lengths” to discredit Brexit and Brexiteers.</p>
<p>A Channel 4 News spokeswoman said: <em>“We stand by our journalism.”</em></p>
