A rise in teenagers involved with neo-Nazi groups and far-right extremism is "incredibly alarming", a counter-terrorism detective has said.
Det Supt Gareth Rees said police could not "arrest our way out of" the issue.
On Wednesday, Luca Benincasa, 20, from Cardiff, was locked up after admitting to being a member of a neo-Nazi group.
Experts called it a "hugely dangerous time", saying Covid and the cost of living crisis could push more young people towards the far-right.
There are also concerns around how the internet is used to share material.
"In terms of the ages, we've seen the low teens - and that is an incredibly alarming thing to see," Det Supt Rees said.
"We have seen people engaged in attack plots, attack planning, looking at attacking locations or individuals.
"But we've also seen significant volumes of offences related to sharing, downloading and sending material, which breaches the terrorism act.
"You've got people who are very young, very impressionable, and very vulnerable who are being drawn into a very worrying area which not only affects their own wellbeing, but also ultimately presents a threat to other people."
Det Supt Rees, the right-wing terrorism lead at Counter Terrorism Policing, said the threat has grown and "evolved" in recent years.
"We need to understand how we can stop young people making decisions and being drawn into an area that is both very sad and very damaging and, ultimately at the top level, very threatening."

and now the sad story of a young teenage girl Groomed on-line by a American fascist she eventually took her own life. A teenage girl investigated for far-right terror offences was a victim, not a criminal, her grief-stricken mum has claimed. Rhianan Rudd was found dead in her bedroom in May last year. www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/teen-girl-who-killed-herself-28870612 |

I understand how they get to neo Nazis but any idea how they define far right extremism? I would suggest that as the head of the RW anti-terrorism section he has every reason to big up the problem either to get more staff or to say how busy he is. |

One can create a bogey man but if it is a rather nebulous and ethereal entity how do we know what it is and what to do about it. It has the ring of others who warn that the far right are on the rise but cannot define what makes them far right and in a circular fashion say it is because others say so. Are there policies we should look out for. |

The simple problem I have with your post is that for the past 67 years the only threats to my continued existence have been from your friends on the twisted left, or towel head religious fuckwits, or Guinness drinking religious fuckwits.
Not once have I been threatened by a Hitler worshipping maniac.
But I have been firebombed by leftist scum who hated the idea of me funding a cure for cancer, my town has been bombed by Irish terrorists, my water supply bombed by Welsh ones, my uncle was RPG'd by incompetent towel wearing religious jerks who missed him but blew up their mates in the other speedboat....
And that's just a start ...

It's just like your claim about gun deaths. what that they account for 5% of homicides in England and wales 0.013 deaths per hundred thousand, and you said 5% of deaths, not homicides. Illegally owned firearms are the weapon in most firearm murders. As usual you're exaggerating things. |

I don't really recall any prime time TV news conference with Met Police hugging each other celebrating the thwarting of right wing terror plot ... I think I've seen six now where they have done that to celebrate thwarting rabid islamists |
