A judge at the Old Bailey has set a trial date in February next year for a man alleged to have circulated far right videos online.

Kristopher B Humphreys, 30, from Kendal, in Cumbria, has been charged with 12 counts of distributing videos on Telegram as well as illegally possessing a terrorist document.

His barrister Ben Gordon said the charges "would be contested".

Judge Mrs Cheema Grubb said the trial would begin at Manchester Crown Court on 1 February 2027. Humphreys was remanded into custody.
