Kieran Turner, from Earby, faces a total of 10 charges and will face trial at Manchester Crown Court
An alleged far-right extremist has appeared at the Old Bailey accused of encouraging terrorism by glorifying the murderer of MP Jo Cox.
Kieran Turner, 36, from Earby, allegedly published a statement in January 2019 calling for “650 Thomas Mairs” and hailing the terrorist killer as a “hero”. Batley and Spen MP Ms Cox was fatally shot and stabbed by far-right terrorist Mair during the EU referendum campaign in June 2016 . Turner is also accused of sharing live-streamed footage of a terrorist attack on March 15 2019 – the day of the Christchurch mosque shootings – and a document detailing an antisemitic conspiracy theory. He faces a total of 10 charges: one of encouraging terrorism, two of disseminating a terrorist publication and seven counts of stirring up racial hatred in written material on dates in 2019 and 2020.
Mr Justice Baker set a trial at Manchester Crown Court from May 7 2024 with a plea hearing on September 8. The defendant was granted continued bail.
