Far-right activist James Allchurch, described as a supporter of Adolf Hitler, has been found guilty on ten counts of distributing audio material to stir up racial hatred over a two-year period through a “highly racist & antisemitic” podcast station called 'Radio Aryan'.
But where would anyone in Britain get the impression that it's OK to stir up racial hatred or use antisemitic tropes & conspiracy theories? Surely no-one in the media or public eye - nor God-forbid anyone in Government - would fuel racism or antisemitism?
The jury heard how the charges relate to audio files uploaded between 17 May 2019 & 18 March 2021 to a public website called Radio Aryan, later renamed Radio Albion: the content of the episodes is said to be “highly racist & antisemitic”, & “white supremacist in nature”.
On the recordings (titles include 'Rivers Of Blood' & 'the Leftist Supremacist Mindset') Allchurch is heard being “threatening, abusive & insulting” about ethnic minorities, & perpetuating the idea that people in Britain are engaged in 'a race war'.
A cartoon had the caption: "Anything you say can & will be used against you by the Jewish press." The podcasts included talk about hanging black & Jewish people, & Allchurch denied there was racial hatred within a comment that white people were "superior in most measurable ways".
James Allchurch was the owner of the website, the main host, & was responsible for distributing the audio recordings, despite often being joined by co-hosts & guests such as National Action co-founder Alex Davies.
Davies, 27, from Swansea, was jailed in June last year for eight and a half years for being a member of the banned far-right organisation.
Other guests included Laurence Nunn, also known as Max Musson, & American neo-Nazi Daniel Kenneth Jeffries.
Allchurch & his guests referred at times to the well-known far-right organiser and anti-Islam activist, Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, who founded the English Defence League as “too moderate”.
Prosecutor Jonathan Rees KC, said Radio Aryan spread #propaganda about racial conflict: Allchurch “was building up a community of ‘positive-minded individuals”’.
A divisive propaganda channel that appeals to 'salt of the earth people'? Sounds familiar.
Themes in a number of episodes include negative stereotypes of black & Asian people, & the idea that “non-white” people are responsible for all the crime, violence & sexual violence in the UK.
Now where else might we look to find negative stereotypes?
There was discussion of 'the great replacement conspiracy theory' (which GB "News" presenter Laurence Fox appears to subscribe to) with Allchurch suggesting using violence to “protect white people” in the fight against (echoing Braverman) “the #invasion”.
In the #propaganda channel's 'Rivers of Blood' episode, Allchurch defended former MP Enoch Powell’s anti-immigration speech delivered in 1968, claiming “everything he said has come true” & that areas of the UK have become “overthrown” by minorities.
Judge Huw Rees told Allchurch to expect a custodial sentence "that will not be measured in months", for "using vile & inexcusable language which I regard as a stain on humanity. NO-ONE should express themselves this way."
Allchurch will be sentenced on 28 April.

Many of Britain's most vocal 'anti-establishment' voices attended some of the most expensive schools on earth.
These broken boys masquerade as 'anti-elite' while serving the interests of the ultrarich by turning working class people against each other using 'Divide & Rule'.
Moscow born Konstantin Vadimovich Kisin came to the UK aged 11 & was sent to Clifton College boarding school (current fees: up to £18,360/term).
He recently said about Rishi Sunak "He’s a brown Hindu; how is he English?" He's a regular speaker at Paul Marshall's ARC conference.
Rupert James Graham Lowe was sent to Radley College, an all-boys independent boarding school (current fees: up to £19,200/term).
Lowe worked in the City of London for companies such as Morgan Grenfell, Deutsche Bank and Barings Bank.
My own summary is above, but journalist @gilduran76 - of the brilliant #FrameLab - has now written his own summary, review and interpretation of it, which I reproduce with a few links and commentary, below.
To fully understand Silicon Valley’s project to destroy democracy, read 'The Sovereign Individual: How to Survive and Thrive During the Collapse of the Welfare State.'
In 1999, it was rebranded as 'The Sovereign Individual: Mastering the Transition to the Information Age.'
Life was demonstrably worse in the 1979 than it is today.
Zymunt Bauman calls this yearning for an imagined past, ‘retrotopia’, in which the ‘Volk’ (the ‘simple folk’, who Reform UK claim to represent) are constructed as homogenous, Christian, white, & ‘indigenous’.
Life was demonstrably inferior in the 1970s compared to today for almost everyone in England.
Life expectancy in the UK in 1980 was 71 for men and 77 for women. By 2019, life expectancy at birth in England had increased to 79 years for men & 83.5 for women.
1. Economic Hardship
In 1979, the UK economy was struggling with high inflation, unemployment, and a budget deficit. This eroded purchasing power, making essentials like food, clothing, and housing more expensive relative to wages. "Stagflation" was a significant problem.
'Anti-elite man of the people' Nigel Farage, educated at one of the most expensive private schools on earth, is now the highest paid MP in the UK. His basic annual MP salary is £91,346 plus expenses.
The UK National Living Wage for people aged 21+ is just £12.21/hour.
Let's take a look at some of Nigel Farage's additional earnings that he's legally obliged to declare in the MPs Register of interests - and which contains a few surprises - starting with GB "News".
Between 16th July 2024 and 15th January 2025, Farage decalred earnings of £264,790 for his work as a presenter on Reform UK Ltd's 24/7 propaganda channel, GB "News", co-owned by Islamophobic billionaire hedge-funder, Paul Marshall.
The front-page article, published in the Daily Telegraph, claiming “London is home to as many as 585,000 illegal migrants, equivalent to one in 12 of the city’s population” was covered across the media and widely discussed by politicians and others.
The claim that “One in 12 in London is illegal immigrant” is based on this report, commissioned by Thames Water, conducted by the research company Edge Analytics in February 2023, which the Telegraph says it obtained “under freedom of information-style laws for the environment”.
The EDL is an Islamophobic protest movement aimed at preserving UK identity and culture in the face of a perceived Islamization of the UK and Europe.
So is Reform UK.
The EDL reinforce the notion of the “nationalist subject” - a fallacious conception of citizenship - that wrongly assumes members of the majoritarian culture are possessed of certain core values, beliefs, and traits that embody the true essence of the nation.
