Groups of white supremacists jailed

A group of white supremacists have been jailed for plastering racist stickers across a city centre university campus.

After stickering prominent signage on the site, the men then posed for a photo doing Nazi-type salutes and holding the black flag of far-right organisation National Action.

Sentencing the men on Wednesday, a judge said the “pernicious” stickers deposited at Aston University, Bir- mingham, had “potential to cause social unrest and racial tension in the city”.

Judge Paul Farrer QC, sitting at Birmingham Crown Court, told the men: “The stickers could encourage people to believe that, as you would refer to them ‘non-whites’, represent a danger to society, and society should be divided along lines of race.”

The judge added: “We are fortunate to live in a tolerant society. Your behaviour was calculated to not only undermine these values, but also to foment hatred and unrest in society.”

Following a trial last month, Chadwilliams-allen,of West Bromwich, and Garry Jack, 22, formerly of Birmingham, were convicted of stirring up racial hatred, alongside two other men who cannot be named for legal reasons. Williams-allen was jailed for 21 months, Jack was handed a 12 month suspended sentence, and two other men were jailed for 16 months and 12 months respectively for their parts in the enterprise.
