A woman named her baby Adolf and said “all Jews must be put to death”, a court has heard, as she and her partner face trial accused of being members of a banned neo-Nazi group.

Claudia Patatas, 38, and Adam Thomas, 22, of Waltham Gardens, Banbury, Oxfordshire, are charged with being members of National Action.

Daniel Bogunovic, 27, of Crown Hills Rise, Leicester, faces the same charge. All three deny being in the proscribed group.

Jurors at Birmingham Crown Court have been shown photos said to be of Mr Thomas. One showed a man wearing Ku Klux Klan robes, cradling a baby.
