The child sex abuser who chanted "save our kids"

The Nazi paedophile who chanted "save our kids" has been jailed for three years for racist abuse, inciting violence, and attacking police.

The self-styled "freedom fighter" and "critical thinker" Warren Gilchrist has been jailed for three years for his involvement in the extreme-right riots in Manchester.

He filmed himself shouting "stamp on his fucking face" and  "kill him, kill him" as the extreme-right mob attacked a lone black man in Piccadilly Gardens.

Drone footage then showed Gilchrist kicking two police officers as they attempted to save the victim of the mob attack.

The court was also shown Gilchrist’s self-recorded footage of him chanting "save our kids" which the judge described as "rank hypocrisy" given his string of convictions for child sex abuse against under-13s.

Gilchrist also hurled racist abuse at two Muslim women and accused police of "anti-white racism" as they attempted to stop rioters from looting a Sainsbury’s store and a vape shop.

When police raided Gilchrist’s home, they found a stash of Nazi paraphernalia which included swastikas, children doing Nazi salutes, and other extreme-right flags.

It’s hardly surprising that one of the extreme-right thugs who cynically used the dreadful killing of three kids as an excuse to spew racism, incite murder, and attack police turned out to be a Nazi paedophile.

However many will be left asking why a serial offender with 18 previous convictions for 67 offences ended up getting a significantly shorter sentence for this absolute thuggery (3 years) than environmental activists who merely discussed non-violent protest tactics in a Zoom call (4 and 5 years).
