Nine people have been arrested after a group of people gathered in a pub in Greater Manchester to celebrate Adolf Hitler’s birthday. A group caused outrage when they turned up at the Duke of Edinburgh in Royton on April 19 to celebrate the Nazi leader’s 136th birthday with a cake emblazoned with a swastika. Pub landlord Terry English told Metro that the group ‘snuck in the pub’ and ‘none of the staff saw anything’, adding that he had since reported them to the police. All nine were arrested this morning on suspicion of Section 18 Public Order Act offences, which includes displaying written material which is threatening, abusive or insulting, intended to stir up racial hatred. Greater Manchester Police have searched homes in Rochdale, Bolton, Trafford, Stockport and Southport as part of their investigation and have found imitation firearms, weapons including swords and a crossbow, and Nazi memorabilia and materials. A suspected grenade was found at a property in Bolton, but explosives experts were deployed and the item has since been declared safe

siehe auch: Haul of replica weapons and Nazi material found after raids in Southport and Manchester Nine people have been arrested after a series of dawn raids were carried out across the North West. It comes after a group of neo-Nazis were caught celebrating Adolf Hitler’s birthday in a pub in Oldham, Greater Manchester. A disturbing haul of replica guns as well as a Nazi-era gas canister were uncovered during the raids, which were carried out shortly after 5am today, May 7, in Southport, Oldham, Rochdale, Bolton and Urmston, as reported by the Manchester Evening News. (…) Officers also found a ‘Zyklon’ gas canister. Zyklon gas was used by the Nazis in the mass killing of Jews in the Second World War. GMP stressed the gas canister was not viable and that the suspected grenade had been ‘declared safe’ by Army bomb disposal officers. The force said so far all the guns analysed were imitation or replica, but a spokeswoman said they could not rule out that others may be found to be in working order. Tests are continuing.

Neo-Nazi extremists openly gathered at an Oldham pub to celebrate Adolf Hitler’s birthday complete with flags and even a cake decorated with swastikas, it emerged today. Members of the north west branch of racist fringe group British Movement assembled at the Duke of Edinburgh last Saturday afternoon. The far right obsessives unfurled flags displaying Nazi symbols and even tucked into a black, red and white birthday cake emblazoned with a swastika. They then showed off about the shocking celebration on social media, sickeningly saying the pub had been filled with the ‘warm laughter of comrades’ as they marked ‘the 136th Birthday of Uncle A’. After been approached about the appalling scenes, the pub has said it had no knowledge of the actions of the group of up to eight men and one woman and had now reported them to police
