“They name my husband & home address. They don’t consider killing me ‘murder’ they call it an ‘execution’. This letter was through my front door. This is Britain.”

It reads: “This is a serious notice from National Action London. We are notifying you of our intention to kill you and your family.
“We suggest you leave the UK asap, this is the only way that you can avoid what is coming to you.
"You need to hide because your details have been circulated to others on the internet, violent nationalist activists, blackshirts and others. It is only a matter of time Adeshola before you receive your punishment, your execution.”

British born activist Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu shared a photo of a sickening threat which stated she "leave the UK asap" (ITV)National Action is listed on the government website as a "neo-Nazi group" that was established in 2013.
The description of the group explains: "It has a number of branches across the UK, which conduct provocative street demonstrations and stunts aimed at intimidating local communities. Its activities and propaganda materials are particularly aimed at recruiting young people.
"The group is virulently racist, anti-Semitic and homophobic. Its ideology promotes the idea that Britain will inevitably see a violent ‘race war’, which the group claims it will be an active part of. The group rejects democracy, is hostile to the British state and seeks to divide society by implicitly endorsing violence against ethnic minorities and perceived ‘race traitors’.
"National Action’s online propaganda material, disseminated via social media, frequently features extremely violent imagery and language. It condones and glorifies those who have used extreme violence for political or ideological ends."
