The Lads gained some smol notoriety after Sky News Australia regular <a href=\"https:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=46912\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lauren &#8216;The Great Replacement&#8217; Southern<\/a> hired them to do security on her 2018 tour Down Under but, after having successfully re-assembled the remnants of the fascist core of the UPF, The Lads dissolved in favour of a front group known as the &#8216;European Australian Movement&#8217; (EAM), behind which (and comprised of members of the same milieu) stands the much-better known NSN.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, The Boy From Balwyn is not the only neo-Nazi formerly belonging to NAlt or the UPF to have run into legal difficulties of late. Hence, last week Neil Erikson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2021-05-11\/far-right-extremist-jailed-after-disrupting-festival\/100130868\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">appealed<\/a> against a four-week prison sentence imposed for disrupting a Muslim prayer gathering at Federation Square (a few weeks after the Christchurch massacre), while Blair Cottrell goes to court in December to face charges of assault.<\/p>\n<p>Cottrell was formerly lvl boss of the UPF, and played a leading role in The Lads until his former sidekick Sewell forced him out. A nazi with smarts, Cottrell was able to capitalise upon his notoriety in order to enjoy a brief platform on ABC&#8217;s <em>Hack Live<\/em> in July 2017 and Sky News Australia&#8217;s <em>The Adam Giles Show<\/em> in August 2018, but a conviction for racisms in <a href=\"https:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=41657\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">September 2017<\/a> &#8212; and John Bolton&#8217;s failure to overturn the conviction on appeal in December 2019 &#8212; has for the time being rendered his political aspirations moribund.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not the case with his former #BFF who, unlike Cottrell, has bravely emerged from his political closet to proclaim his full-throated support for Nazi Germany. And while some neo-Nazis have denounced Cottrell for his intellectual and moral cowardice &#8212; Sewell recently declared him to be just another poser on social media &#8212; I think Cottrell&#8217;s obvious success in cultivating popular hatred for Muslims &#8212; and using this notoriety to achieve Internet fame &#8212; was the more sensible approach to Australian politics and media: Islamophobia and xenophobia remain marketable in a way that gross anti-Semitism is not. Still, Sewell&#8217;s unapologetic endorsement of Nazism and commitment to an Apocalyptic notion of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adl.org\/education\/references\/hate-symbols\/rahowa\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">RaHoWa<\/a> has not only attracted the support of a small number of teenyboppers but a handful of older Proud Boys, including <a href=\"https:\/\/independentaustralia.net\/politics\/politics-display\/from-proud-boy-to-nazi-in-two-months,15063\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jarrad Searby<\/a>, who&#8217;s recently begun training Sewell&#8217;s soldiers in mixed martial arts.
