A man accused of being a member of a banned neo-Nazi group called for "traitors" who supported multi-ethnic Britain to be hanged from lampposts, in a video shown to an Old Bailey jury.<\/p>\n

In the clip, taken in March 2015, Matthew Hankinson, 24, addressed a crowd in Newcastle upon Tyne.<\/p>\n

He is one of six men who deny being in National Action after a ban in 2016.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday one of the group admitted planning to murder a Labour MP as part of what he called a "white jihad".<\/p>\n

Jack Renshaw, 23, of Skelmersdale, Lancashire, pleaded guilty to preparing an act of terrorism by buying a machete to kill West Lancashire MP Rosie Cooper.<\/p>\n

He also admitted making a threat to kill police officer Victoria Henderson.<\/p>\n

'Race war'<\/h2>\n

There is no dispute in the trial that Mr Hankinson, of Newton Le Willows, Merseyside, is the speaker at the rally which took place more than a year before National Action was banned under terrorism legislation.<\/p>\n

He and the five other defendants deny being members of the group after it was outlawed in December 2016.<\/p>\n

During the Newcastle event, Mr Hankinson appears wearing dark sunglasses and surrounded by flag bearers, including one man carrying the National Action insignia.<\/p>\n

He tells the crowd they need to prepare for a coming race war which was necessary to secure the future of white people.<\/p>\n

"If we don't fight and cut out the cancer, Britain will die," he says. "The system will not compromise with us. We need the strongest of our race."<\/p>\n

Referring to so-called race traitors who oppose far-right ideology, Mr Hankinson says: "They will end up hanging from lampposts. We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children. <\/p>\n

"Blood must be shed, the blood of traitors. Stand up white men and set our people free."<\/p>\n

The jury also watched a video of a demonstration involving National Action in Liverpool which resulted in minor clashes with anti-racism protesters and police in 2016.<\/p>\n

Duncan Atkinson QC, prosecuting, told the jury that Jack Renshaw was a masked man seen to be holding a banner, alongside some of the group's founders. <\/p>\n

A further video of a Rochdale protest included footage of another of the defendants - Andrew Clarke, 33, of Prescott in Liverpool.<\/p>\n

The other accused, who all deny being in the group are: Christopher Lythgoe, 32, and Michal Trubini, 35, both from Warrington; and Garron Helm, 24, from Seaforth, Merseyside.<\/p>\n

Mr Lythgoe also denies encouragement to murder by allegedly giving Renshaw permission to kill Labour MP Ms Cooper on behalf of the group.<\/p>\n
