Alleged neo-Nazi terrorist Andrew Dymock denies being a racist and tells the Old Bailey: "I'm friends with an individual who's black"
Dymock also claims a teenage girl "pressured" him (he was nearly 21 at the time) into posing in a skull mask for pictures while doing a Nazi salute.
"I had kidney issues which were affecting my judgment", he tells the court

Addressing the image (seen here) while giving evidence today, Dymock says: "It's not indicative of any mindset" 
He also tells jurors that the n-word (which prosecutors say he frequently used) doesn't have the same meaning it had "a few years ago"
Asked to explain his use of the neo-Nazi slogan 1488, Dymock says he was actually mocking Nazism and it was really a reference to nomadic pastoralism
Dymock also says neo-Nazi texts and t-shirts were placed in his bags when filmed by police after his arrest at Gatwick Airport in 2018.
He says they were taken out after the images were taken.
The texts included Iron Gates and one of the t-shirts was of the Atomwaffen Division

The court also heard about images in which, as the judge described it to Dymock, "you're saying Heil Hitler to your dog".
The defendant said this will have involved friends and related to a "dumb situation in Scotland" involving a pug

The defendant said he first had a skull mask because of the Duke of Edinburgh scheme not because of any Siege groups
Regarding messages in February 2018, in which he described having a “great dream” of going around executing gay men with a 44 magnum revolver, Dymock said he'd seen a Clint Eastwood film
Asked about his use of the offensive word f*****s to refer to gay people, he said it "doesn't refer to homosexuals any more" and that it's a term used online
He's seen here in white, on the day he says he was pressured into posing for pics, with a flag for the Sonnenkrieg Division.
Dymock says he regarded it as a flag for airsoft and that others made it into the SKD logo.
He denies 15 terrorism and public order offences
