Active Club England used the unrest of the 2024 summer riots to become one of Britain’s largest white supremacist networks, growing to more than 100 members. ITV News Global Security Editor Rohit Kachroo spoke to Met Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Vicki Evans, Senior National Coordinator for Counter Terrorism Policing about what has been done since their investigation.
ITV News exposed a white supremacist network that used Saturday morning fitness sessions as a cover to build a far-right militia. Secret recordings captured extremely racist conversations among members who were trying to improve their own physical fitness in preparation for potential violence.
During many meetings between October 2024 and February 2025, ITV News documented a change in language from offensive "jokes" about Adolf Hitler to discussions about the use of weapons, and open declarations about "taking power whenever the opportunity arises".
