The guy in Owen Jones assault case, when saying he's not Homophobic or supports far right groups.....

During legal argument, the court heard police found a black flag bearing the letters CYF (Chelsea Youth Firm), a hooligan group, when they searched Healy's Portsmouth home.

The prosecutor said the flag was also adorned with a skull and crossbones symbol and SS lettering associated with the SS unit of the Nazis.

Officers also found badges associated with football hooliganism, as well as neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups, including Combat 18, the court heard.

A birthday card, featuring a St George's flag, the skull and crossbones and the words "you have been nominated and dealt with by the Chelsea Headhunters", in reference to another hooligan firm, was also recovered.

Mr McGhee described a photograph of Healy "with his right arm raised straight out in front of him to the right."

"It is plainly, when viewed in relation to all the other items in Mr Healy's premises, a Nazi salute," he said.

The court heard the photo showed Healy as a teenager but had been printed out in 2015.

"The person who possesses these items, it can be properly inferred, holds, or has sympathies for, white supremacist, far-right organisations, and we say that with specific reference to Combat 18," the prosecutor said.

Healy's barrister, Matthew Radstone, said: "He accepts he did target him, he accepts his face was crunched up, he accepts using the word f***.

"It is an assault he has pleaded to and a frenzied one at that."

But he argued the items are inadmissible as evidence, telling the judge: "That memorabilia is consistent with Mr Healy being a Chelsea football supporter and part of the Chelsea football supporters' group, who express themselves with memorabilia and behaviour of the type of insignia in that manner the flags perhaps suggest."

He said Healy has a number of convictions for football-related violence and was known as a "Chelsea risk supporter".

Mr Radstone argued the items reflect his "association with Chelsea Football Club as opposed to any right-wing political beliefs he may have".

Utter f***wit.

Should be used for extreme scientific experimentation whilst in prison.
