A Black Country school has banned the staging of a play about the BNP amid fears it could spark community tensions days before a planned rally by a far-right group in Dudley.

Moonfleece, a hard-hitting drama addressing racism and homophobia in Britain, had been due to be staged at the Dormston School, in Mill Bank, Sedgley, on Thursday.

The play has been pulled. A rally by the English Defence League will take place in Dudley on Saturday.
