A 'Far right' bombmaker, who was found with 23 bombs and a 'hate board' featuring the Royal Family and Barack Obama, has been jailed for five years.

Police also found a cache of hundreds of knives and axes when they raided the home of Matthew Glynn, 37, following a tip-off from a member of the public.

Army bomb disposal officers closed off the street for two nights while they searched Glynn's home in Horfield, Bristol, unearthing several home-made devices, including one under his bed.

Police described his devices as “potentially fatal” and “effective”.

In a sentencing hearing at Bristol Crown Court yesterday, the judge was told that Glynn, a carpenter, had a collection of celebrity faces on a dart board, who he supposedly hated.
