Reference: 0555-NECC

This Amber Alert is issued by the United Kingdom’s National Crime Agency (NCA)

working in conjunction with law enforcement and financial sector partners as part of the Joint Money Laundering Intelligence Taskforce (JMLIT). The JMLIT has been

established to ensure a more collaborative approach between law enforcement and the banking sector.

Overview

This alert is issued by the JMLIT Expert Working Group on Terrorist Financing,

working in conjunction with the Counter Terrorism Police National Operations Centre within the Metropolitan Police Service. It provides information relating to

signs and symbols often used by individuals linked to domestic extremism. It has been produced to assist the financial sector in identifying material which has an

extreme right wing (XRW), extreme left wing (XLW) or an animal rights extremist meaning. All information contained within this alert is provided for training and

information purposes only.

The information provided in this document is not exhaustive; rather it provides a general overview of popular images and terms used. All the information contained

within the document is available via open source.

It should be noted that holding extremist views is not a criminal offence in itself, and many of the groups listed in this report are not proscribed under the Terrorism

Act 2000. This alert contains potential indicators of extreme ideologies, and is provided as individuals and groups that adhere to or promote these views are

assessed to be at increased risk of offending, either in the form of terrorist offences, politically-motivated violence, or hate crimes. These indicators are

provided to prompt further inquiry by financial institutions, and to provide them with an opportunity to make a more informed assessment as to whether the SAR

threshold is reached in any given case.

What We Would Like You to Do

If you identify activity which may be indicative of the activity detailed in this report, and your business falls under the regulated sector, you may wish to make a

Suspicious Activity Report [SAR]. If you decide to make a report in this way you

should adopt the usual mechanism for doing so, and it will help our analysis if you would include XXJMLXX within the text and the reference 0555-NECC for this

alert.

The NCA would also welcome any information identified as a result of this alert

which does not constitute a SAR. Please email all such information to

jmlit@nca.x.gsi.gov.uk. Any information received in this way will be treated in confidence and will be handled in line with the data protection principles.

The National Crime Agency (NCA) is a national law-enforcement agency which leads the UK’s fight to cut serious and organised crime. The NCA Alerts process is

the way in which we provide information to non-law enforcement bodies including

the private sector to combat and disrupt serious crime. To help us to improve this service, we would welcome any feedback you have on both the Alert itself and the

information provided to you. Please email all feedback to alerts@nca.x.gsi.gov.uk and include the reference 0555 -NECC in the subject line.

Information Report Domestic extremism (DE) mainly refers to individuals or groups that carry out

criminal acts of direct action in pursuit of a campaign. They usually aim to prevent or to change legislation or domestic policy, but attempt to achieve this outside of

the normal democratic process. As such, domestic extremists can also include individuals motivated by extreme animal rights, left wing ideology, militant single

issues groups and even violent nationalists.

The vast majority of people involved in animal rights, nationalism and political campaigns are peaceful. However, such causes have sometimes attracted

extremists who have resorted to violence and intimidation, sometimes in the form of solo acts of violence. In 1999, David Copeland, a neo-Nazi, carried out a series

of bomb attacks against gay and ethnic minority targets in London. His attacks killed three people and injured 129 more.

It is therefore important that frontline personnel have the knowledge and skills to

identify individuals who are linked to DE activity.

This report is divided into four sections: UK Groups and Logos, Language of the XRW, Financial Flows of the XRW and Language of the XLW / Animal Rights

Movement.

UK Groups and Logos Logo Group Description

port Azov Battalion The Azov Battalion is a neo-Nazi infantry unit

that formed in response to the recent Ukrainian conflict with pro-Russian Separatists. The Militia

has fought alongside Ukraine’s National Guard. German media has observed Azov Battalion fighters wearing helmets with swastikas and ‘SS

runes’. The Azov Battalion is intrinsically linked with the Misanthropic Division which is believed

to be both recruiting and raising funds for them. The Italian Francesco Fontana also has links to Azov Battalion (Fontana has been reported

online as attending the White Man March in Newcastle 2015).

Blood & Honour (B&H)

B&H is the international neo-Nazi music network, founded and managed within the UK.

B&H organises XRW music events and the sale and distribution of XRW material (CDs, publications, clothing). B&H organises eight core

concerts a year in the UK. The annual Ian Stuart Donaldson Memorial in September is the

main event, and attracts an average of 900 attendees.

British Movement (BM)

BM is a small underground XRW political movement which is based upon the principles of National Socialism. It is involved in the

production, sale and distribution of XRW material which can cause offence and raise

community tensions.

Combat 18 Combat 18 is a previously violent white

supremacist organisation which was formed in 1992. It has re-emerged after a decade of inactivity. The group has re-branded its logo

from a Nazi deaths-head (called the Totenkopf) to a more patriotic white dragon. Combat 18

Generation

Identity

Formed in France in 2012 as a youth movement

of the French group ‘Bloc Identitaire’, Generation Identity has successfully spread across Europe. It was launched in the UK in October 2017.

They describe themselves as “a non-violent youth movement that aims to highlight the need

for open and honest public debate about immigration policies, identity and the future of our islands and of Europe. We aim to preserve

the ethno cultural identity of Europe through peaceful activism, political education, and

community and cultural activities.” Their core concerns are:

Stop the Islamisation of Europe

Against globalization Stop and reverse the Great Replacement

London Forum A pseudo intellectual forum for neo-Nazis who try to pass off a respectable image by holding

discussion groups in high class hotels. The subjects discussed include historical revisionism, holocaust denial and nationalist politics. Leading

XRW speakers from around the world attend such events, including the holocaust denier

David Irving and folk musician Alison Chabloz.

Misanthropic

Division

First seen in the UK in early 2015, the group

appear to have emerged from Azov Battalion in the Ukraine in the fight against Russia over the annexation of the Crimea. MD is believed to be

recruiting and raising finance for the Azov Battalion.

National Action

First came to prominence in late 2013, NA is a neo-Nazi youth movement that has rapidly

grown in the UK, largely due to a lack of a competing youth organisation, and due to the use of slick imagery across their social media

outlets. They attracted national media attention due to holding ‘training camps’ under the

Sigurd/Legion banner, and their online targeting of the Jewish MP Luciana Berger. The group was proscribed in December 2016 as a terrorist

organisation. Scottish Dawn and NS131 were subjected to name change orders in September

2017 as being assessed to be the same group as National Action.

National Front (NF)

A registered political party widely perceived to be an extreme right wing organisation. The NF will conduct street activity such as marches and

leafleting, often in ethnically sensitive areas. They attract minimal support at the elections

which they contest.

their own small demonstrations. They initially supported a BNP demo in Croydon South

London, but have since demonstrated their support for National Action attending both White Man Marches in 2015. They also attended an

anti-Shomrim demo in London organised by long time XRW activist Eddie Stampton.

NS131 Standing for ‘National Socialist Anti-Capitalist Action’ the group emerged in 2017 in the North

West of England following the proscription of National Action. The group was the subject of a

name change order in September 2017 thereby proscribing the group as part of National Action.

Polish Hooligans

Came to notice at a North West Infidels demonstration 27/02/2016. Members from

across the UK attended. 29 were arrested for violent disorder by Merseyside Police with members going on trial in 2018. The group has

not been seen in such numbers since.

the UK in 2002. Openly racist group whose ideology is based around the preservation of the

white race. They are against all racial integration and are particularly anti-Semitic. The group is assessed to have collapsed in 2016.

Scottish Dawn Emerged in 2017 in Scotland following the proscription of National Action. Subsequently

subject of a name change order by the Home Office recognising the group as an alias for National Action.

Volksfront Volksfront UK is a chapter of a white

supremacist neo-Nazi group of the same name based in the U.S. The group collapsed in the wake of the shooting by Michael Wade Page in a

Wisconsin Sikh temple in 2012 where he fatally shot six people and injured a further four. The

group continued in the UK for a short time but has not been seen for a number of years.

Language of the XRW One of the potential financial identifiers of the XRW is the use of significant

numbers and acronyms, featured as the transfer amounts or in the payment references. For example, transfers of £14.88 being made between accounts or

transaction descriptions of ‘KIGY’.

Numbers

14 Words – ‘We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children’ – this is the overarching ethos of the XRW, coined by the White

Supremacist writer David Lane. References to ‘14’ or the ‘14 Words’ may appear in literature, speeches and art work.

The word ‘race’ is sometimes used instead of the word ‘people’.

2083 – The title of Anders Breivik’s Manifesto ‘European Declaration of

Independence’. Refers to the 200th anniversary of Karl Marx’s death and 400th of the Battle of Vienna.

9% - The projected percentage of the world’s white population by 2060.

100% - This is an expression of an individual’s pure Aryan or white roots. It is common among white supremacists. It is also a statement by white supremacists

on the need for a pure, white race that is uncorrupted by interracial relationships.

Letters are also often replaced by numbers which represent their position in the alphabet:

5 – In the US, this numeral represents the expression "5 words" which signifies "I

have nothing to say." Alex Curtis, a San Diego-based white supremacist who coined the phrase, believes that white racists in the United States should use the five

words to demonstrate a "code of silence" and to help avoid prosecution by law enforcement. The “5 words” in the UK are “we go where we want”. This was a

phrase used by a far right group, Pie & Mash.

18 – Adolf Hitler (1st and 8th letters of the alphabet). The number is also used by

Combat 18, a violent British neo-Nazi group that chose its name in honour of Adolf Hitler.

23 – The 23rd letter of the alphabet is W. Therefore, white supremacists use the

number 23 to represent "W", as an abbreviation for the word "white”.

28 – Blood and Honour (2nd and 8th letters of the alphabet). Blood & Honour is an international neo-Nazi/racist skinhead group started by British white supremacists

and singer Ian Stuart. It has chapters around the world.

88 – Heil Hitler (H is the 8th letter of the alphabet)

88 Precepts - 88 Precepts is an essay or manifesto written by David Lane. 88 Precepts is a treatise on natural law and is an expansion upon Lane's own Fourteen

311 – Ku Klux Klan (K is the 11th letter of the alphabet X 3)

420, 4/20, 4:20 - The anniversary of Adolf Hitler’s birthday is also used as a tattoo by racists and neo-Nazis, to affirm their belief in the ideals of National Socialism.

XRW Financial Flows The below chart (figure 1) is an anonymised illustration of the funding flows around

a UK-based right wing group that has been identified through SAR reporting from more than one reporter. It should be noted that this picture is not complete, and

significant intelligence gaps remain. These gaps relate predominantly to how funds are used once the right wing group has raised them.

The group is not proscribed, and so it shows the source of its funds quite clearly,

with no attempt to be covert. As demonstrated in figure 1, the group’s funds are generated by two main methods: personal donations; and revenue from internet

content and rock music streaming, music sales and merchandise. It is assessed that the group is dependent on direct and indirect marketing, with revenue generated

through direct marketing (advert hits on their website) being significantly less than

revenue generated by indirect marketing (music/merchandise sales through companies run by members of the group). It is currently unknown how close the

links between the bands and the right wing groups are. Additionally, the promotional companies involved have been seen to frequently change their names.

In relation to fund flows, the revenue-generating companies owned by members of

the group have been seen to receive payments from the political group, but not all the revenue has been channelled directly back to the political group. Direct

donations have either been made through crowd-funding sites, or through supporters who collect and aggregate funds. The funds appear to be disbursed in

three main ways: through payments to services that support the group’s internet businesses such as hosting and security services; through donations to other XRW

organisations (including some in Europe) and payments to directors. Visibility of payments from the main groups quickly ends, but there are clear transactions

between companies, officers of companies, and members of the right wing groups

that lack any apparent commercial or financial purpose. In addition, officers of the companies appear to use the business accounts for lifestyle expenditure, with few

controls in place.

with their beliefs. An activist will try to influence others to achieve their aims and may commit acts likely to result in arrest.

Affinity Group - a small group of activists, usually known to one another, who act

in concert to achieve a protest related objective. The strength of affinity groups emanates from their ability to keep their plans known to only a small group of

Anarchism - anarchists advocate the absence of the state, arguing that common sense would allow people to come together in agreement to form a functional

society. Most forms of anarchism not only seek rejection of the state, but also other

systems which they perceive as authoritarian, which includes capitalism, wage labour, and private property. Anarchists argue that anarchy does not imply nihilism,

but rather an anti-authoritarian society based on free individuals in autonomous communities, operating on principles of mutual aid, voluntary association and direct

action.

dominated by multinational companies and the globalisation of corporate capitalism.

Anti-Militarist - being opposed to the establishment or maintenance of a governmental military force.

often be identified by use of corresponding banners, similar coloured clothing or flags.

Black Bloc - is not a group. A black bloc is term used to describe a bloc of like-minded activists who are most commonly identified by their use of black clothing.

Black bloc tactics can often be both offensive and defensive and frequently involve confrontation with the police.

OFFICIAL

14 OFFICIAL

Convergence Centre - a Convergence Centre is usually a squatted venue or a rented space which is opened immediately prior to, and for the duration of a

significant protest action. Run by activists, these centres are used to educate and inform protest participants about intended protest actions, to pick up maps of the

area, find accommodation, attend workshops, eat, drink and meet other protestors. In most instances these centres will include space for accommodation. The centre is

usually abandoned by activists at the end of the protest.

Direct Action - occurs when a group of people take an action which is intended to reveal an existing problem, highlight an alternative or demonstrate a possible

solution to a social issue. This can include non-violent and less often violent activities which target persons, groups, or property deemed offensive to the direct

action participants.

Extremist - an extremist is committed to a single objective and is willing to carry

out any activity that will further their cause without fear of punishment or consequence.

Hierarchal (Vertical Left) - groups organised with a formal leadership, hierarchy

Masking-up - a term used to describe the physical act of placing a facial covering

over an activist’s face to hide or obscure their identity from the police.

Non-Hierarchal (Horizontal Left) - groups organised so that participants have the same authority as everyone else. Decisions within the group are made by

consensus and can therefore elongate and sometimes frustrate any decision making process.

Non-Violent Direct Action (NVDA) - any form of direct action that does not rely

on violent tactics.

Nuclear Pacifism - opposition to nuclear weapons but not necessarily the military

or wars in general.

Peoples Global Action (PGA) - the PGA is an instrument for communication and coordination, not an organisation. It created a global network of communication

through which activists from disparate groups around the world can talk to one another and coordinate actions globally.

Rape – term used by animal rights activists to describe the artificial insemination of dairy cows to prolong milk production.

Skillshare - a means by which activists can impart their knowledge to other

persons, usually by means of bringing people together in a safe space and presenting their skills in the form of a lesson.

Social Centres - are long term community spaces. Also known as a free space,

social centres may be designated a "safe-space" where specific forms of dialogue and activism are encouraged and protected from police attention. Social Centres

also serve as open spaces for community interaction and may sometimes incorporate a café.

Tat - a term used to describe the reclaimed materials collected by activists prior to an event which will then be recycled for use in protest activity.

Umbrella - a term used to describe an overarching organisation which seeks to

coordinate disparate groups into operating as part of a campaign.
