A teenage neo-Nazi from Lancashire, who glorified and encouraged far-right terrorism against Jews and Muslims has been jailed for two years. Manchester Crown Court heard that 19-year-old Thomas Leech believed conspiracy theories that the Jews were planning the “Great Replacement” of the white race through extinction and the “Islamicisation” of Europe. The autistic youngster from Preston had become an isolated, lonely and vulnerable figure who rarely left his home and his far-right online activities “filled a void”, the court was told. The court heard that after being arrested by counter-terrorism police, he told officers: “I am a Nazi.” Police found he had posted online a “call to arms” for the white race, glorifying far-right killers, including Anders Breivik, who murdered 69 youngsters in Norway, and Brenton Tarrant, who murdered 51 people at mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, in 2019. Leech, of Derby Road, Preston, admitted at an earlier hearing three counts of encouraging acts of terrorism and two counts of stirring up religious or racial hatred, between March and November 2020. He also admitted possessing indecent images of children. Judge Alan Conrad QC sentenced Leech to two years in a young offenders institute, saying “The offences you committed are deeply disturbing.”
