BNP mother-of-three admits assault

A mother-of-three who has previously claimed to be a member of the British National Party (BNP) has pleaded guilty to common assault and perverting the course of justice. Helen Forster (see here and here for more info), of Park Place, Gravesend, admitted the charges at Maidstone Crown Court on July 27.

The 32-year-old, who has previously stated she has produced leaflets for the party, has been remanded in custody and will be sentenced on September 7.

The two charges relate to an incident in Fort Gardens, Gravesend, on May 23. In May, Forster was given a 10-month suspended sentence at Maidstone Crown Court after being convicted of intimidation. In this case, the court had heard she had encouraged a group of children to throw eggs and fire an airgun at the home of her neighbour Meherjan Miah, who lives there with her young children.

Neo-Nazi jailed for race-hate campaign

A "DANGEROUS" neo-Nazi who waged a racist campaign against a couple because they were mixed race has been sentenced to seven years in jail.

Nathan Worrell, 35, who signed his texts with "88" – a coded reference to Heil Hitler, as each word begins with the eighth letter of the alphabet – was found guilty at Grimsby Crown Court of possessing material for terrorist purposes and racially aggravated intentional harassment, alarm or distress.

Books and manuals containing "recipes" to make bombs and detonators using household items such as weedkiller, lighter fluid and sugar were found during a police raid at his flat.

Also found were numerous boxes of matches, 171 match heads, two tubs of weedkiller and three bottles of lighter fluid. A video by far-right group Combat 18 – also a coded reference to Adolf Hitler – showed how to prepare and make a bomb from household items.

Prosecutors said that unemployed Worrell, a member of the Ku Klux Klan and the British People's Party, was behind a campaign putting racist stickers on the gate and a nearby lamppost at the couple's home.

They bore offensive comments about mixed-race relationships and repatriation and police found piles of the stickers at Worrell's home.

Worrell, of Grimsby, who left Havelock Upper School aged 16, and has had no long-term employment since then, was described by police as "a dangerous individual who harbours extreme anti-Semitic views."

Det Chief Supt David Buxton from the Counter Terrorism Unit in Leeds said: "Literature found at his flat exposed his interest in creating explosives and even more concerning a number of items were recovered that could have been used to create these devices. We are thankful for his early arrest that has stopped Worrell from taking his interest further.

"Worrell's racial intolerance and his hatred for religion are more than obvious. Worrell showed he had the ability and readiness to use threats and intimidation to promote his beliefs and, because of this, his actions became of a terrorist nature.

"It is to my sadness that one family in particular have suffered at the hands of these extreme beliefs and the unforgivable actions of this man.

"No-one should be made to feel like an outsider in their own community because of their race or religion. I wish to thank them for their bravery during this investigation during what has been an extremely difficult time for them.

"Worrell had already crossed a line and was demonstrating the potential to move towards even more dangerous actions. Today's verdict and sentence recognises this and sends out a clear message that terrorism in any form will not be tolerated."

Worrell was arrested in January after police raided his flat looking for race-hate material. He denied the charges, but admitted in custody he occasionally "stickered" on his estate as there was no-one else in the area who was "like-minded". He claimed they were not aimed at anyone in particular.

Race-hate pair flee to US for political asylum

Two men convicted of publishing race-hate articles on the internet have skipped bail and fled to the United States to claim political asylum, the Yorkshire Post can reveal.

Simon Sheppard and Stephen Whittle were given bail by a judge at Leeds Crown Court on Friday, despite having been found guilty of a series of race-related offences. The pair were due to return to court on Monday while a jury continued deliberating over further charges, but they failed to show up.

Last night Sheppard, 51, and Whittle, 41, were being held by immigration officials at Los Angeles Airport – outside the jurisdiction of the British court system.

It is believed that the pair travelled from the UK to Ireland by ferry before taking a direct flight to Los Angeles. They are likely to have their case considered at an immigration hearing in the US before UK authorities can secure their return.

A spokeswoman for Humberside Police, which led the race-hate investigation, said: "We are led to believe that they are indeed being detained by the Immigration and Naturalisation Service (INS) at Los Angeles Airport. They are in custody and we are in liaison with the INS to establish that this pair are our two men and, if so, what is likely to happen to them."

Sheppard, of Brook Street, Selby, was found guilty after a seven-week trial of 11 counts of publishing racially inflammatory written material. The jury gave unanimous verdicts on nine of the charges on Friday, and returned with two majority verdicts on Monday while Sheppard was absent.

Whittle, of Avenham Lane, Preston, was convicted of five counts of publishing racially inflammatory written material. Four of the verdicts were reached unanimously on Friday, and the fifth was returned by a majority of 10 to one on Monday after Whittle had absconded.

The jury were unable to reach verdicts on seven further race-related charges which Sheppard faced. A spokeswoman for the Crown Prosecution Service said it had yet to decide whether Sheppard should be retried on the seven outstanding charges. It has 14 days to reach a decision.

The case is due to be considered further at a hearing at Leeds Crown Court on July 28.

Anthrax hoax postman jailed

A neo-Nazi postman who targeted the Attorney General in an Anthrax hoax has been jailed for four years.

Brazilian-born loner Jefferson Azevedo, 45, posted packages containing caustic soda and letters filled with "racist and depraved" threats to his victims. Azevedo's targets included Government figures and an elderly man whose family was wiped out in the Holocaust.

One person was slightly burnt by the chemicals stuffed into parcels, another suffered a skin rash, and many people were left "extremely frightened". London's Southwark Crown Court heard how Azevedo also caused traffic chaos with a hoax bomb on a bridge.

He targeted more than 150 organisations and individuals, singled out because of their support for foreign nationals in Britain or opposition to the far right British National Party.

Schools, mosques, churches, restaurants, the Royal Navy's dockyard at Portsmouth and the Voluntary Overseas Organisation were all sent hate mail.

In what the judge called "sheer nastiness", 79-year-old Julius Klein, whose family was murdered by the Nazis, was sent a letter with a swastika.

Alex Agbamu, prosecuting, said Azevedo was obsessed with immigration.

"He wanted to bring what he said was the problem to the wider British public. He said he had the idea from the US when anthrax had been sent through the post to various people in that country."

Father-of-one Azevedo, of Langley Road, Portsmouth, pleaded guilty to 19 charges from February 2003 to March last year, and asked for a further 140 to be considered. One charge related to February 7 last year when he planted an "imitation explosive device" on a footbridge over the A27 in Havant, Hampshire.

Eight other counts detailed "hoaxes involving noxious substances or things" including white powder that was sent to the Attorney General and to St Albans primary school in Havant. The other nine counts, under the Malicious Communications Act, concerned "conveying threatening messages".

As you were on Stormfront

It's not a good time to be a member of the National Front.

Only 40 of them turned out on April 13th for a long advertised St. George's Day march in Newcastle, and just seventeen showed up on the 19th for a "major" mobilisation in London - so few that the NF were outnumbered not only by their police escort but also by anti-fascist demonstrators.

Unimpressed police ordered the NF to stay on the pavement, and after only ten minutes of shepherding what looked like a large family on a shopping trip called the whole thing off.

Luckily for the demoralised Fronters, the booze-loving Nutzi guys and gals of the equally tiny British Peoples Party were having a shindig in London on the same day, and they invited their humiliated racial comrades along - unfortunately, it wasn't a good day for the BPP, either.

According to fat super-chav Sid Williamson, he and other BPP members decided to confront the "Red scum" who came along to demonstrate against the BPP's divisive presence in the capital.

Chipmunk-cheeks Williamson, a professional dole-scrounger, spends a lot of time making threats of violence against his fellow racists, which - as far as we know - have never been followed up. He loves the cultivate the image of Nutzi hard man, which doesn't hang well with his endless whimpering after last year's Brighton Pride that the police had failed to protect him and his mates from "the poofters" and that his head had got in the way of a discarded bottle of soft drink.

Sid's "hard" credentials were on display in London last week when, having marched up to confront the "Red scum", the BPP Nutzis got the worst of it from the off, and the first to have it away on his toes was the superhero Williamson - motto: "We shall never surrender - not while we can run fast".

We're hearing that Sid never actually landed a blow and kept himself at a safe distance while his dimwitted mates got clobbered when the antifascists defended themselves.

Sid the Superhero's various explanations for what happened are, as you'd expect, not exactly on nodding terms with the truth, and, as usual, he manages to gloss over his own failure to engage with the enemy.

Back in my fascist days we'd be mighty suspicious of somebody who shouted "Charge!" but never got close to the enemy guns himself.

And there's so much about Sid that is suspicious.

I've mentioned before that no convincing explanation has ever been given for his admission into and quick departure from the BNP. I've also mentioned before that Sid can be counted on to kick the ball for BNP leader Nick Griffin, even if it's at the expense of one of his own BPP members.

In the Stormfront Britain thread devoted to the BPP's London meeting, member Reaction65 gives a short account of what happened, but quickly finds himself under attack from thug (and 100% genuine low-life) Tommy Williams, one of Nick Griffin's unofficial attack dogs and part of the moronic Covert Underwear Nicking Turkeys team.

Williams, posting as Shove the Dove, kicks off by telling Reacton65: "According to someone within the BPP you ain't even a member and they have no idea who you are. So whats all that about then?"

The "someone within the BPP" is Williams's mate, the heroic SuperChav himself.

Reacton65's credentials are backed up by other BPP people, but that's not good enough for Williams, who insists he's been told Reacton65 isn't a member, and goes on:

"Quit talking like you are something.....If you want to talk membership list safety I still have the BPP/NA/WNP membership lists on disk passed on by an 'ex' member, yeah its that easy. Now where were we? ....oh yeah! Like I said I spoke to a 'high ranking' BPP member who assured me that you, Reaction65 is nothing to do with the BPP. Now why would they tell me that?"

Why would Sid Williamson tell him that indeed?

Possibly because Sid's a real wrong 'un?

Undaunted, Reaction65 comes back with: "Is the fact that you've got hold of the membership list supposed to be some sort of threat? Accusing me of basically being wrong'un without any solid evidence on the open web is a tad out of order, wouldnt you say so?"

Strangely, Sid enters the fray - not to defend his BPP mate, but to attack him: "...if Reaxction65 IS a BPP member then he he definitely not a spokesman for us. I want BPP members to concentrate on the mess our country is in and the scum that infests it. I do not want to read messages against other British Nationalit groups written by people claiming they speak for us. Because they don't."

A bit odd, as Reaction65 hadn't attempted to speak for the BPP and hadn't attacked anybody - he was Tommy Williams's victim, as the Saltdean SuperChav pretended not to notice.

Touchingly, Reaction65 declared: "And I also hope that I am entitled to my own opinion, I primarily post as an individual but will always back the BPP up when and where I can on SF. And yes, I am a member. I think you will find that it was another individual that started this row, I cetainly had no intention of this happening and unfotunately it doesnt seem like the first time that somebody has been working on trying to portray me as sime kind of divisive splitter."

Which is about the point at which SFB moderator Number Five closed the "discussion".

Number Five was the Great White Hope of the Stormfront Nazi set. He was going to bash the living daylights out of the Griffinites and return SFB to its true path of good honest Hitler worship.

But in the weeks since he attained his god-like status as SFB moderator he seems to have undergone a strange transformation noticed even by anti-fascist Stormfront watchers, and now steps in like a fireman whenever things threaten to blow up for the incendiary Griffinite tendency.

Curious.

Not so long ago Number Five would have been with Reacton65 all the way, eager to find out which leading member of the BPP breached the law to pass the party's membership list to the odious Williams.

He's become a bit of a pussy-cat, that Number Five.

Stormfront member Raffles is anti-Griffin to the marrow of his bones, and seems to be getting himself out and about in support of a BNP rebel "independent nationalist" candidate - about the worst crime you can commit in Griffinite eyes (unless you happen to have been born with the name "Gerry Gable").

Posting that his girlfriend had received a threat from a BNP official, he said: "The threat was part of a message informing us that I was secretly filmed today commiting the heinous crime of leafleting for an Independant Nationalist Candidate. These events were given an unexpected twist by a 'fellow' StormFront member who goes by the name ''brilliantwhite'' taunting me about this threat on another thread. He seems to know a lot about todays events. I refere you to post 38 onwards [link]... This latest developement comes after a campaign of intimidation was launched against ex-Sunderland BNP Organiser Ian Leadbitter, a small part of which was conducted here on StormFront...."

Sure enough, Post 38, linked to by Raffles, has this from BNP man "Brilliantwhite": "Today Raffles our stormfront member was filmed leafleting in a main winable ward for the BNP against the BNP. The film hopefully will be available for all to see. This true Raffles? camera never lies."

Raffles hits back: "Do I require your permission to do this? By the way, should I go to the Police and the electoral commision with the Physical threat that was sent to my Girlfriend tonight or would you rather discuss these matters in person?"

Raffles's faithful friend Maximilian then enters the fray: "Once again we witness the BNP mask slipping with threats to peoples girlfriends, and talk of posting film on the net and the like. Intimidation is not becoming I can assure you! Sounds like you have been sharing Pot Noodles with Barnes."

Ah, the Medway Madman!

I did wonder myself if Brilliantwhite was another of BNP legal lunatic Lee Barnes's many Stormfront identities - mostly because of his own stupidity, as in:

"Why not contact the number of the phone the txt came from..."

...The giveaway being that nobody had mentioned text messages until that point.

Predicably, the imbecilic BNP crowd, having ruined their own thread (which was about their party political broadcast) and rumbling themselves as liars, began to whine: "Can we ban any talk on here that does not relate to the broadcast?"

And Number Five, removing a lot of incriminating posts in the process, did just that.

From where I'm sitting, Number Five's new Stormfront Britain is looking more like the old Stormfront Britain every day!
