The far-right group Patriotic Alternative is targeting Generation Z in search of the next wave of neo-Nazis. Shocking footage shows how the group lured in a teen who is now one of its leading stars. A young generation of patriots calling themselves “Zoomer Nationalists” is being groomed for racial hatred and possibly terror – and their poster boy is just 17. Far right group Patriotic Alternative is targeting Generation Z in search of the next wave of neo-Nazis. And it is claimed PA’s rising star, Barkley Walsh, has followed the group’s leader online since he was 13. Shocking footage filmed over two years as part of an undercover investigation alleges: Walsh has been named guest of honour at PA’s next conference by its leader Mark Collett – an infamous neo-Nazi and a former youth leader of the British National Party. The teen was lured in by watching trolling reels and memes on PA’s YouTube channel after a relative died. Group members blast out racist political broadcasts over shoot-em-up computer games played by other potential Zoomer Nationalists. Older group members congratulate new recruits like Walsh for being arrested handing out far-right leaflets. Fake Labour leaflets distributed in the Batley and Spen by-election were planted by PA. Primary school children attend group rallies where racist terms are openly used – including one vile suggestion that footballers be shot in the head for taking the knee in support of the black community. There are even “jokes” about the Holocaust and slurs on Jewish people. A trainee teacher, Scouts volunteer and law student were at one camp.
