A man accused of being a 'fanatical' neo-Nazi terrorist allegedly posed for a photo with his newborn baby while wearing the hooded white robes of the Ku Klux Klan, a court heard.

Adam Thomas, 22, and his partner Claudia Patatas, 38, gave their child the middle name Adolf, which the prosecution has alleged was in honour of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.

Jurors at Birmingham Crown Court were for the first time on Monday shown the image, along with another photo showing Thomas holding a swastika flag next to a smiling Patatas, who is holding their baby in the couple's lounge.

Another image, from what barrister Barnaby Jameson QC called the 'Thomas-Patatas family album', allegedly showed Thomas at home in a KKK robe brandishing a machete in front of a Confederate American flag.

Thomas and Patatas, from Banbury, Oxfordshire, are on trial accused of being members of the far-right terrorist group National Action, which was banned in December 2016.

Co-defendant Daniel Bogunovic, 27, from Leicester, is facing the same charge.

Mr Jameson QC showed jurors a series of photographs including one, found on a memory card at the house, showing Patatas holding her baby, standing next to another man, Darren Fletcher who is holding a swastika flag and performing a Nazi-style salute (pictured)

A host of Nazi and far-right memorabilia, and National Action flags, badges and banners, were found at the couple's home, as well as what prosecutors described as an 'extensive' collection of weapons, including crossbows, an axe and knives.

The couple also allegedly had a poster stuck to their fridge reading 'Britain is ours - the rest must go'.

Thomas faces a separate charge of having a terrorist document, the Anarchy Cookbook, which contained bomb-making instructions.

Mr Jameson QC showed jurors a series of photographs including one, found on a memory card at the house, showing Patatas holding her baby, standing next to another man holding a swastika flag and performing a Nazi-style salute.

Describing another image, said to show Thomas in the hooded robe with his child, the prosecuting barrister said: 'The suggestion is that is Mr Thomas and his child, whose middle name is Adolf.'

Turning to an image of a hooded man with a machete, he added: 'There is a strong inference, and you'll appreciate this when you look inside the Thomas and Patatas house, that that was taken inside their home, and that the person in the robes was Thomas.'

It was alleged last week that in a message to another 'vehement Nazi', Patatas said: 'All Jews must be put to death,' while Thomas told his partner, in a separate conversation, that he 'found that all non-whites are intolerable'.

Two cushions bearing the swastika were found during police searches of the couple's home after their arrest for alleged terrorism offences in January.

A greetings card on the sideboard of the couple's living room featured KKK figures and read: 'May all your Christmases be white.'

It emerged in court that counter-terrorism officers from Prevent had visited the couple's home in October last year 'due to concerns Ms Patatas may be involved in the extreme right wing'.

Following National Action's ban, the prosecution alleged the group tried to 'shed one skin for another' to evade the law and that the three defendants were part of a successor organisation called the TripleK Mafia.

The Crown's case is that the group was still National Action in all but name, and went through a 'rebranding' exercise to evade scrutiny by the authorities.

Mr Jameson said: 'The Crown say all the defendants in this case along with those that have pleaded guilty or been convicted were cut from the same National Action cloth.

'They were fanatical, highly motivated, energetic, closely linked and mobile.

'And they all had, we say, a similar interest in ethnic cleansing, with violence if necessary, and the evidence in this case, we say, speaks for itself.'

The court also heard that National Action members held a Miss England-style competition in the run up to the EU Referendum - called Miss Hitler.

Barnaby Jameson QC, prosecuting, said the far-right group took part took in the online competition to raise publicity in the run up to Brexit.

He said: 'Female members took part in 'Miss Hitler 2016'. That was done to increase the group's profile.'

The photographs of Thomas and Patatas were introduced into evidence today (Mon) by Detective Constable Matthew Fletcher, of the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command, who investigated National Action.

He told the court the group - which had up to 50 members - set up a training camp in Wales which they called 'white Jihad camps'

He said: 'Extreme-right groups like National Action are neo-Nazi or white supremacist.

'It rejects democracy. It's enemies are ethnic minorities, 'race traitors', the LGBT community and the Jewish community.

'There is also opposition to the banking sector and the capitalist system generally.

'The group first came to light due to an online profile they had created.

'Then we started to see them appear on the street, with flash demonstrations and banner drops.

'At its highest there was around 50 members but a core element of around 30 members.

'At the start the group concentrated on males, then you started to see a pattern of females being entered into the group. The age range was mid to late teens to mid 20s.

'The first training camp that National Action was involved in was 2015 which was in the Wales area - and they were labelled 'white Jihad camps'.

'They undertook mixed martial arts training and discussed security measures.'

This afternoon the court heard that Claudia Patatas told National Action pals she would kill mixed-race children if she was told to.

Messages from an online chat group called 'Triple K Mafia' from February 15, 2017 were read to the jury.

National Action Midlands leader Alex Deakin posed the question: 'Would you kill mixed children if order[ed] to?'

In response, Ms Patatas - using the username 'Sigrun' - said: 'Yes.'

Prosecutor Barnaby Jameson QC read out online chat messages from Bogunovic to other members posted in 2017 - four months after National Action was banned.

The messages concern security measures to avoid suspected spies in the organisation gaining insight into the workings of the 'inner circle'.

The messages were found by police on a mobile phone seized from National Action Midlands leader Alex Deakin, 23, from Birmingham.

In the chat messages, Bogunovic said: 'I think this is a good opportunity to revise how we look at this whole setup.

'I wish Charles [aka Alex Deakin] would consult with other inner circle on issues like this.

'As for infiltrators, it's just a thing we're going to have to deal with as part and parcel of this thing.'

In a group discussion about recruiting new members on April 13, 2017, Bogunovic said: 'I'll be honest, I really don't want more older people than we already have. This is a youth group after all.

'I don't mind people getting old in the movement.New people will come.

'However I was always against over 25 recruiting.

'I want people involved who can carry the torch forward.'

All three defendants deny wrongdoing and the trial, set to last four weeks, continues.
