EDL Suppoter Jailed For Making Nail Bomb In Bedroom

Ryan McGee, 20, is sentenced to two years after he packed 181 metal screws and bits of glass into an explosive device.

A rifleman obsessed with far-right politics has been jailed for two years after making a nail bomb in his bedroom.

Ryan McGee, 20, made a device packed with 181 metal screws and bits of glass designed to maximise the amount of damage when it detonated.

Police found the bomb while carrying out a raid on his three-bedroom family home in Eccles, Manchester, on an unrelated matter last November.

The Old Bailey heard McGee was interested in the English Defence League and had watched a video of men being bound and executed under a swastika flag.

The loner had earlier admitted buying the Anarchist Cookbook as well as making the nail bomb.

Thank goodness he was nabbed before he managed to set that thing off.

Stay vigilant.

What a nutbar!

He also kept a journal entitled Ryan's Story Book, with stickers of Scooby Doo and birds on the front and drawings of guns, machetes and paramilitary soldiers inside.

It also contained references to right-wing groups including the National Front, KKK and BNP, the court heard.

When interviewed by police, McGee said he made the bomb "out of boredom" and claimed he was interested in right-wing politics because he disliked mass immigration.

And his lawyer's trying to claim McGee never meant to do anything with the bomb -- guess it was just a Rubik's Cube, but extra-explodey
