Two Neo-Nazi podcasters who called for the execution of Prince Harry and said his son Archie is an ‘abomination’ who should be ‘put down’ have been jailed.
Christopher Gibbons, 40, and Tyrone Patten-Walsh, 36, were ‘dedicated’ white supremacists who came up with a radio-show format which included chats about violent acts of misogyny, the court was told.
They took part in lengthy podcasts which they created together before Gibbons uploaded them the internet, initially under the title Lone Wolf Radio and later as Black Wolf Radio.
The pair reserved particular hatred for mixed race relationships and used Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s family as prime examples.
Gibbons, of Carshalton, Surrey, commented that Prince Harry should be ‘found guilty’ and ‘judicially killed for treason’ and the couple’s son, Archie, was an ‘abomination’ who should be ‘put down’.
The podcasts also praised the Christchurch mosque shootings as an ‘act of white masculinity’ and revelled in the killing of young girls in the Manchester Arena bombing.
Gibbons was sentenced to eight years in jail while Patton-Walsh received seven years.

Tyrone Patten-Walsh (pictured) took an ‘active part in and contributed to the endless stream of racial hatred,’ said Anne Whyte KC, prosecuting
Anne Whyte KC, prosecuting, told Kingston Crown Court: ‘These hostile and unpleasant attitudes must be seen in the context of these men’s obsession with white supremacy.
‘In their world order, the primary function of women is to reproduce with white men because this is the only way to secure the future of a dominant white race. If they reproduce with anyone who isn’t white, its treason.’
Under the podcast series Lone Wolf Radio, Gibbons uploaded 31 podcasts onto a music hosting site called Soundcloud between December 1, 2017 and November 27, 2018.
The account was closed down by Soundcloud due to neo-Nazi content after Gibbons interviewed Rinaldo Nazzarro, an American neo-Nazi, but he just moved the show to a platform called Bitchute.
The successor channel, Black Wolf Radio, included at least 21 podcasts uploaded to the internet between March 2019 and February 2020 which attracted around 9,000 listeners.
Gibbons adopted the name ‘Chris White’ and Patton-Walsh was introduced as ‘Joseph Walsh’ and referred to as a ‘movement scholar’.
Gibbons was involved in the physical and technical creation of the uploads but Patten-Walsh, of Romford, Essex, took an ‘active part in and contributed to the endless stream of racial hatred,’ Ms Whyte said.
Their discussions used homophobic, racist, anti-Semitic, Islamophobic and misogynist language and included ‘hateful sentiments endorsing violence against those that they see as oppressors of white males’.

‘If you think about it, it is quite clever to use the format of a radio program – it lends an air of casual conversation – music interspersed to give it the semblance of normality,’ Ms Whyte said.
The two men were both found guilty of eight counts of encouraging terrorism and Gibbons was found guilty of a further two counts of dissemination of a terrorist publication.
Sentencing Gibbons to eight years in jail and Patton-Walsh to seven years, the judge, Peter Lodder KC, said they had assumed the format of a radio show to suggest the ‘legitimate exercise of freedom of speech’ but ‘used language and adopted iconography designed to encourage acts of extreme right-wing terrorism.’
‘This was your true purpose,’ he added.
Gibbons also uploaded videos as part of a stash of information ‘curated’ by him online between April 2018 and February 2020, called ‘The Radicalisation Library’ which featured incitement to carry out terrorist attacks in the cause of white supremacy.
The pair believed in ‘accelerationism’ – described as the rapid and violent collapse of society in order to bring about a racist fresh start, with like-minded whites at its centre.
Deploying inflammatory language, they regularly spoke of how the white race was likely to be ‘genocided’ in due course, unless steps were taken to prevent this and fight back.
Patten-Walsh used Twitter to post propaganda for a neo-Nazi group called the National Socialist Liberation Front which read: ‘Political terror – it’s the only thing they understand.’
On October 1, 2019, he posted on X: ‘Until enough white males become violent and hateful towards non-whites, the cowardly white race will continue getting a well-deserved beating.’
Commander Dominic Murphy, who leads Scotland Yard’s Counter-Terrorism Command, said: ‘The material that Gibbons and Patten-Walsh shared is exactly the kind that has the potential to draw vulnerable people – particularly young people – into terrorism.
‘We are determined to identify and hold to account individuals pushing this material. In this case, officers reviewed hours-upon-hours of material to present a compelling case.’
