The British National Party risks being unable to stand for election - because it failed to pay its annual £25 registration fee.

Under the Political Parties and Referendums Act 2000 all parties need to confirm their registration details with the Electoral Commission.

But despite having six months notice, the BNP missed the deadline.

BNP spokesman Stephen Squire said: "It's the first I've heard of it - it's obviously an oversight."

Their story will be that the payment was intercepted by an "Asian" guy.
