Baby Adolf Nazi Trial: Claudia Patatas and Adam Thomas of Banbury convicted of leading far-right group - The Washington Post: Thomas, a British warehouse security guard, and Patatas, a Portuguese-born photographer, were arrested in January with four other men and charged with being members of National Action, which was banned by the British government in 2016 and is labeled a terrorist organization.
The group hoped to start a race war that would rid Britain — or at least the county of West Midlands, halfway between London and Liverpool — of anyone who didn’t happen to be white, according to police. When National Action was banned, after popular anti-Brexit campaigner Jo Cox was killed by a far-right extremist, the group re-branded, calling itself the TripleKMafia, a not-too-subtle allusion to the Ku Klux Klan.
But authorities said the group’s members weren’t simply a bunch of photo-snapping Nazi-philes with white-power insignia decorating their homes.
