Frankie has been advertising himself as fash in Exeter for quite a while now, standing as an election candidate for far-right ‘anti-Islam’ party For Britain, led by Anne Marie Waters. He’s also associated with BNP members Jack Buckby and Eddy Butler. Prior to standing for For Britain, he was associated with fascist group Generation Identity.
Frankie’s not afraid to share his abhorrent views – he’s attended pro-Palestine demonstrations wrapped in an Israeli flag, supported anti-trans activist Posie Parker, and burned a Qur’an in an Exeter pub. He’s also been vocal in his praise for Italian far-right leader Matteo Salvini, and seen alongside Katie Hopkins wearing a hoodie with a design from neo-Nazi group Anticom.
Frankie’s still active in local politics in Exeter, standing as an independent in the 2024 local elections, finishing a worrying second. Being a fascist may need to become more inconvenient for him.
