Dover migrant bombing suspect Andrew Leak posted a slew of unhinged rants to Facebook before he carried out the twisted attack on a Dover immigration centre. Police identified Leak, 66, as the man responsible for targeting a newly established Border Force centre with “two to three” petrol bombs on October 30. Facebook posts reveal that he expressed far-right tendencies and posted twisted comments commenting on society and incoming migrants.

In one rant Leak, of High Wycombe, claimed that “all Muslims are guilty of grooming”.

And he threatened to release a “big report” if the Government didn’t “do what they’re told”, or it would “be the end of England”.

In 2021, he wrote a chilling post directed at the Government in which he threatened to “come for you” if “you dare come for our children”.

He added: “If I can not have freedom, then I will choose death.”

In another post, the suspected bomber said he would “end illegal immigration into this country” within a year “from the French boat side”.

He had a history of liking and sharing posts from far-right Facebook pages. 

Leak also wrote a host of unusual rants about dating and “places to rescue children” in other posts.

One long unpunctuated post saw him complain about dating sites with “photos of women 20 years ago”.

He said he took a “pair of binoculars” and stood “500 metres away” when meeting women and told them to hold a newspaper in their right hand.

He complained this was “the only way you can identify them” as “you can’t buy their pictures”.

Leak concluded the post by saying that women “look like men as they get older”, adding: “We are one chromazone [sic] away from disaster.”

In a post about children, he said: “You know what makes me sad we have animal show twos [sic] but we do not have places to rescue children.”

He added that he wanted to “open a community farm” where “every child will be safe”.

The farm he proposed would have a “chearing [sic] man and women to make sure they are safe and given the tools they need when they become adults”.

He asked his followers to “help me achieve this”, and in another post, warned that comment farming would be the “only way your children and grandchildren will survive the next 50 years”.

Anti-hate groups uncovered Leak’s links to extremist groups soon after authorities released his name.

Hope Not Hate warned that he was “a far-right extremist”, with Joe Mulhall, the organisation’s research director, saying he had “quite a long history” of sharing their content.

He told The Guardian: “Leak was clearly consuming a lot of far-right extremist material that is racist, anti-migrant.

“This content isn’t just words, it leads to serious and dangerous action, which is what happened here.”
