A man with Hitler’s signature tattooed on his arm has been found guilty of attempted murder after stabbing an asylum seeker in the chest and hand.
Callum Ulysses Parslow, 31, attacked the man at the Pear Tree Inn near Worcester as a “protest” against small boat crossings.
Parslow admitted wounding – using a £770 knife bought online – and said he went to stab “one of the Channel migrants” because he was “angry and frustrated”.
He tried to publish a “terrorist manifesto” as police closed in and claimed he “just did my duty to England” by “exterminating” his victim.
Nahom Hagos, from Eritrea in East Africa, was eating in the hotel conservatory when he was attacked.
The 25-year-old said it was a “miracle” he survived.
After trying to kill Mr Hagos, Parslow ran towards a canal and was spotted with blood on his hands.
The court heard he tried to post his “manifesto” to X as police closed in, tagging Tommy Robinson and politicians including Nigel Farage, Suella Braverman and Keir Starmer.
However, it failed to send as he copied in too many people.
Others on his list included Laurence Fox, Lee Anderson, Boris Johnson, Donald Trump and various news organisations.
The court heard an axe, metal baseball bat and a second knife were found at his bedsit in Bromyard Terrace in Worcester.
Police also found a swastika armband, a Nazi-era medallion and copies of Hitler’s book Mein Kampf.
Parslow pleaded guilty to unconnected charges, including a sexual offence, during his three-week trial at Leicester Crown Court.
The jury today deliberated for just over four hours before finding him guilty of attempted murder.
At the time of the attack, the hotel was largely closed due to renovations, having previously been contracted to house asylum seekers from November 2022 to February 2024.
