A neo-Nazi leader has posted shocking footage of his violent attack on a Channel Nine security guard hours before the network was due to air a report about his extremist far-right group.
National Socialist Network leader Thomas Sewell and his lackey filmed themselves arriving at the TV station s office in Melbourne hoping to confront A Current Affair staff ahead of the segment running on Monday night.
Their request was denied and Sewell unleashes into an extraordinary tirade on camera slamming the staff as cowards and manipulative before a security guard emerges and orders the pair to leave. Sorry, you cannot film in the building, the security guard, who is black, tells the man filming, who refuses to comply with instructions.
We must stem toxic tide of extremism

Australia, we have a problem. There is something pathetic about men hiding behind balaclavas and play-acting at being neo-Nazis in a popular national park.
Alleged members of a far-right extremist group seen at Halls Gap and the Grampians.
Chants of ″Ku Klux Klan″ and ″Heil Hitler″ smack of sad, delusional behaviour. But these white supremacists were not play-acting, and being pathetic doesn’t mean that they don’t represent a threat.
Their antics in the Grampians come just three weeks after angry, far-right extremists violently stormed the US Capitol and attempted an insurrection.
