EXCLUSIVE 💥 A hardline Nazi, who has called for Sam Smith to be gassed and refers to black people as “c**ns” and “monkeys”, is appearing as a historian on @channel5_tv tonight about the 1928 London floods 🧵1/8
Nikki Shaw has written three books about grisly murders in Victorian, Edwardian and Georgian London. In her spare time she mixes with leading Combat 18 and Blood and Honour thugs 2/8
In an effort to hide her politics, Shaw has a Facebook account in the name of Bunty McBint. Among her friends are key C18 leaders Will Browning, Nick Field and Karen Henderson. 3/8
Other friends are convicted Loyalist gunrunners Terry Blackham and Frank Portinari (on right), the leader of London UDA. Other friends include notorious Chelsea hooligan Andy Frain 4/8
Her Facebook page is riddled with vile racism and dehumanising language. She denounces people as “race-mixers”, “c**ns”, “monkey” and “black c***”. 5/8
In one posting Shaw declares: “I’m a racial nationalist coz that’s what I believe so I won’t defend race mixing no matter who done it”. 6/8
She has a particular hatred towards Sam Smith. “How come no-one has thought about euthanasing these nonce c**ts through a gas out on their tour bus while they are asleep?” 7/8
A recent post has boasted about her appearance on tonight’s programme. I have approached @channel5_tv for comment…. 8/8

Some final reflections on today: The far right came, they protested and they fought everyone they could. What we saw today was sadly predictable. I hope the @metpoliceuk look through their footage and arrest those behind the violence 1/11
Until 10 days ago, the hooligan world was not interested in the Israel/Palestine conflict. Then @SuellaBraverman and some newspapers began talking about the threat to the Cenotaph, despite full knowledge that the pro-Palestine demo was going nowhere near it 2/11
Then you had Tommy Robinson, whipping up his supporters into a frenzy, urging them out onto the streets and calling for a new street movement. Many of the violent thugs there today answered his call. 3/11
It’s Saturday 11 November, Armistice Day. At 1.45pm, a pro-Palestine demo will leave from Hyde Park and make its way to the US Embassy in Battersea. March organisers expect it to be the largest yet, claiming 500,000 are expected. The demo is avoiding Whitehall and the Cenotaph 🧵
Several hours earlier, from 9am, far right activists and football hooligans will begin gathering in central London. Some claim to be there to “defend” the Cenotaph and other monuments, while others are planning to mob up in pubs along the route of the demo
Tommy Robinson (AKA Stephen Yaxley-Lennon) has urged his supporters (or “British men” - as he has said repeatedly) to meet at the Embankment at 10am. Turning Point U.K, who have protested against previous Palestine demos, claim to be meeting in Parliament Sq.
Today, Stephen Lennon (aka Tommy Robinson) failed in his attempt to overturn a Stalking Prevention Order, issued against him in 2021 after he harassed a national newspaper journalist. He’s now bleating that he was robbed of justice, so I thought I would set out some facts 1/9
In January 2021, Lennon was emailed for a comment about a pending story claiming that he had used donations from supporters for drugs and prostitutes. Rather than email a reply, Lennon turned up at the home of the journalist, with a friend, at 10:30pm on a Sunday night 2/9
Lennon has released some footage showing him speaking politely to someone at the entrance to the building. What he didn’t show is that after being refused entry, he angrily returns to his car and started shouting, whilst his friend began repeatedly hitting the horn 3/9
Last night, Stephen Lennon (aka Tommy Robinson) did a very bizarre livestream even by his standards. Billed as “Fake rape allegations, Andrew Tate and the truth”, Lennon leapt to Tate’s defence, trying to claim his friend was a victim of an establishment stitch-up.
At the heart of the conspiracy was @hopenothate, who Lennon claimed was part of The Matrix. According to Lennon, we were instrumental in bringing action down on Tate, just as we had done with him over the years.
Lennon raised a 2018 allegation of rape against Tate, denying it in the process. His evidence to prove it was that he saw Tate and the unnamed woman kissing.
Just come back from a day at the High Court. I have never seen Stephen Lennon (aka Tommy Robinson) so flustered and unsure under questioning. He had a total nightmare and lied and lied again. I counted 24 lies that we can prove as such
Several of his lies related to his bankruptcy form he submitted in 2021 and signed as a true and accurate account. He failed to disclose that he bought a house for £90,000 in 2018 and sold for £200,000 in October 2020.
He was forced to admit that the £160,000 he claimed on his bankruptcy form he owed HMRC was a figure just plucked out of thin air. He then said that he owed a friend £363,000, which he had been given in cash, for investments, but also forgot to mention that on his bankruptcy form
Thousands of hooligans, far right activists & veterans turned out in central London today supposedly to defend the war memorials. Instead, there were repeated violent clashes with the police. The day ended with an image of one of them urinating on the memorial to PC Keith Palmer.
Their actions today give an absolute lie to the idea that they are peaceful demonstrators, are law-abiding or care about our institutions. Many of them were thugs intent on trouble from the very start, fueled on booze from an early hour.
Many of these far right thugs had no interest in defending anything. Rather, they were intent on confrontation, ideally with their political opponents but in their absence then with the police
