Two men whose avowed aim was to eradicate Jews from Britain have gone on trial at Liverpool Crown Court.

Trevor Hannington, 58, from South Wales, and Michael Heaton, 42, from Manchester, have been accused of soliciting people to kill Jews through postings on a website.

Hannington denied one count of soliciting to murder, while Heaton is on trial for four comments he made on a website run by an organisation called the Aryan Strike Force (ASF) between January and April, 2008.

Prosecutor Andrew Edis, QC, told the court that both men were proud to call themselves neo-Nazis and that both were members of the ASF, which wanted all ethnic minorities to be removed from Britain.
