The chief propagandist for a far-right network exposed by ITV News earlier this year is a former Buckingham Palace employee now helping to forge an Anglo-American alliance of white supremacists intent on bringing US Neo-Nazi tactics to Britain.
Known only by the pseudonym “John” within extremist circles, ITV can now identify him as Matthew Gravill, a 26-year-old from Leicestershire, who travelled to Texas in September to meet a “who’s who” of senior figures in the American fascist movement.
The excursion was part of the group’s effort to find ways to exploit social and political divisions in the UK and the US.
Material reviewed by ITV News — including more than 100 hours of undercover recordings, thousands of encrypted messages, and conversations with officials and people who unwittingly encountered Gravill — reveals his double life: a Palace warden guiding visitors through royal state rooms, and a covert organiser within an international extremist movement.
