A neo-Nazi who felt discriminated against because of his ginger hair has been found guilty of plotting a terror attack in Britain.

Mark Colborne had fantasised about shooting Prince Charles with a sniper rifle so red-headed Prince Harry could be king.

The 37-year-old, who compared himself to the Norwegian far-right mass murderer Anders Breivik, was caught after his half brother found documents detailing his racial hatred in his bedroom at the family's Southampton home.

The jury in a trial earlier this year failed to reach a verdict.

But following a retrial, Colborne has been found guilty of preparing terrorist acts prior to his arrest on June 3rd last year.

He was convicted on a majority verdict after jurors deliberated for more than 14 hours.

Although he was found guilty of the charge, the jury rejected aspects of the allegations, including that he possessed chemicals to make cyanide and dimethyl sulphoxide, and stockpiled equipment such as syringes, screw top spray and face masks.

Sentencing was adjourned until Tuesday, November 3rd.

The court heard during his trial that Colborne felt alienated and marginalised for being a white, ginger-haired, man.

He also suffered from agoraphobia - a fear of open spaces - and depression.

In his notebook, he wrote: "I don't want to be a serial killer. I'm more of an Anders Breivik. I have left potential targets open".

"I was waiting for an opportunity to kill one of them. Let it be Prince Charles which would be good".

Stating he wanted a "silent rifle", Colborne added: "Take up a good position and put a bullet in Charles's head".

"He is protected but not too protected. I would sacrifice my life for that one shot. Kill Charles and William and Harry become king. Kill the tyrants".
