Oliver Lewin believed the government was run by a Jewish elite and thought the coronavirus vaccine would cause mass deaths, the breakdown of society and the imposition of a Chinese-style communist system.

Friday 20 January 2023 15:31, UKA COVID conspiracy theorist has been jailed for planning a terror attack on TV, radio and phone masts in a plot to"topple the government".

Judge Paul Farrer said Lewin was"socially isolated, depressed and lacking in self worth" at the time of his offending. Nick Price, from the Crown Prosecution Service, said Lewin's beliefs were"extremely dangerous" and he"planned to commit a terror attack on our nation's infrastructure by amassing a huge amount of equipment, and undertaking reconnaissance"."He not only was committed to the idea that violence was the only way to overthrow the government, but he also sought to persuade others to join him," Mr Price added.

He exaggerated his skills in order to persuade others that he would be a"credible and effective leader of terrorist attacks", prosecutor Annabel Darlow KC said. He wrote that he wanted to"install a civilian-led alternative that doesn't act for themselves consider anybody below them mere scum". They also found army surplus equipment including a jacket, backpack, groundsheet, rifle sling, rifle scope and an airgun silencer to fit the three airguns he had.In his bedroom was a notebook containing handwritten notes that included a target list of"media, transport, infrastructure, power, comms, roads & rail".
