Nine arrested over 'Hitler birthday party' in pub

Nine people were arrested in May 2025 after a far-right group celebrated Adolf Hitler's birthday at the Duke of Edinburgh pub in Royton, Oldham.
The event took place in April 2025 and photos posted by British Movement North West showed Nazi flags and a swastika cake, with the pub staff reportedly unaware of the group's intent.
Greater Manchester Police conducted dawn raids across multiple locations, seizing replica guns, swords, a crossbow, Nazi memorabilia, and a suspected grenade later declared safe by bomb disposal experts.
Assistant Chief Constable Steph Parker noted that the group is deeply interested in ideas known to cause concern within Greater Manchester communities and confirmed ongoing cooperation with Counter Terrorism Policing North West.
The arrests are connected to alleged violations of Section 18 of the Public Order Act, concerning the display of threatening or abusive content aimed at provoking racial hatred, with police prioritizing community safety as their inquiries continue.
