Sam Melia, 36, said he would be resuming his senior role in the far-right group Patriotic Alternative. He said that prison was the ‘single most radicalising thing I’ve been through’ and that he had a ‘renewed zeal’ to rejoin the group.

On Tyrie’s Telegram channel, a secretive chat-based social media, Melia wrote: ‘My time away hasn’t dimmed my spirit in the least; quite the contrary. ‘Interrogated by both National Security Division’s probation service, as well as Counter-Terrorism’s Desistance and Disengagement Programme, the weakness of their arguments was breathtaking. Frequently breaking down to, “yeah, all that’s true, but why do you care?”
