British nazis had believed that if they hosted their racist ravings on US web servers they would be immune from prosecution. Sheppard\u2019s conviction has undermined that confidence, sending shock waves through British fascism&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=1268\">Sheppard<\/a> was no doubt expecting a custodial sentence. He was jailed in the Netherlands in 1995 for Holocaust denial and received a nine-month sentence in June 1999 for distributing antisemitic leaflets in Hull with Dave Hannam. At the time both were BNP activists. Sheppard was expelled from the BNP, but Hannam, who was jailed for three months, went on to become the BNP\u2019s regional treasurer and a close confidant of party leader Nick Griffin, who himself has a conviction for inciting racial hatred. Since that time, as well as maintaining his own Heretical Press site, Sheppard has made himself indispensable as the front man and registrant for a number of far-right websites including the notorious Redwatch&#8230;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>t h r e e<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.antifa.org.uk\">Antifa UK<\/a> are preparing to &#8216;Smash the BNP&#8217;s Scumfest!&#8217; (absolutely not to be confused with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scumfest.org\/\">Scumfest<\/a> the Sarf London DIY punk benefit festival), exclamation mark and all.

Gerry Gable, of anti-fascist magazine <em>Searchlight<\/em> said: &#8220;Antifa like <a href=\"http:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=405\">getting stuck in<\/a> basically. They are related to groups in Germany and other parts of Europe. They will confront Nazis wherever they find them.
