Kevin Quinn
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kevin Quinn (born 1965 in Northampton) is a British Neo-Nazi and the current leader of the November 9th Society.
Quinn initially served as Director of Security and personal bodyguard to founder Terry Flynn in the movement, until he became leader (taking the title 'National Director') in 2000. Under his leadership N9S have attempted to become more high profile and have also attempted to organise as a political party (sometimes using the name British First Party).
In 2005 he was charged with distributing copies of The Longest Hatred, a book effectively banned when Lady Jane Birdwood was convicted for distributing it. He pleaded guilty to possession of racist material and was given a suspended sentence, although attempts to prove links to the Racial Volunteer Force were not pursued.[1] In February 2006 contributors claiming to be members of the RVF posted on the Combat 18 website that Quinn was "not to be trusted," however, due to the fractious nature of National Socialism in Britain, this was probably the result of rivalry and not of actual unreliablility on Quinn's part[citation needed].
In early 2008 Quinn appeared before Watford Magistrates' Court on a charge of racially aggravated public disorder. The charge related to an incident in South Oxhey on 1st December 2007 when it was claimed that Quinn abused ethnic minority passer-bys from a British First Party table that he had set up in the area.[2]
