INVESTIGATION: A burning phone mast in Dundee and the 5G conspiracy theory groups on Facebook
Steele often collaborates with Lee Garrett, who hosts an anti-5G show on YouTube which has featured both he and Gilmartin as guests. The pair were most recently seen together in a video uploaded on May 14 showing them harassing mobile phone engineers in a residential area of Gateshead.
Garrett, 28, is a community activist who was once involved in the UK’s “yellow vest” movement and ran for election in December, for which he raised £1,077 online and won 76 votes.
Once a member of Save Us Now, he says he now campaigns independently against 5G and LED street lighting because of the claimed effects electromagnetic radiation had on his children, which he acted on by smashing a light outside his house. He was not named in news reports at the time, but openly admits he was responsible.
“We’ve never had a nosebleed since and I’ve EMF-painted my house,” he says.
However, the father-of-two denies being a conspiracy theorist. Rather, he is “a concerned dad speaking up for his children’s future”.
“The science doesn’t add up. I haven’t seen anything to prove otherwise.
“Talking about 5G has ruined my life, totally ruined my life. But I’ve got to stand by the truth. I only care about my kids and the best future they can possibly have.”
Garrett’s channels have served as a link between 5G conspiracies and far-right ideals. He has expressed support for members of the extremist group Britain First, including its founder Paul Golding, who was convicted of terrorism offences on May 20 after refusing to give his phone passcode to anti-terror police following a political trip to Russia.
Fans of Garrett’s Telegram channel — a messaging service — regularly share information about alleged antifa (anti-facist) activists as well as anti-Semitic memes. One such image claims the “coronavirus hoax and lockdown is a major step forward for the Satanic Jewish agenda”.
He has also used his Facebook page, Lee Garrett Save Us Now, to celebrate vandalism against phone masts.
One such clip, uploaded in April, depicted a slideshow of images showing masts ablaze, put to the music of Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus, and 70s classic Disco Inferno, by the Trammps.
Another, showing a blazing mast being extinguished, was captioned: “New 5G mast set on fire…the public have tried everything to do this the correct way and have been left with no choice.”
Garrett insists he does not support the far right, and does not incite people to commit arson. However, he doesn’t believe that the acts of fire-raisers are wrong.
“I speak to far-right groups, I speak to the socialists, Extinction Rebellion. I’m not political — I’m fully anti-establishment. I believe everyone can make their own minds up.
“There’s been masts getting burned all over the world. I can’t be held responsible for that. I’m just sharing other people’s videos.
“If there was a mast outside your house and you’re telling the establishment, the council, and you’re worried your children are getting cancer, do you still send letters or act and take that thing down? People won’t just sit back and allow that to happen.
“I don’t incite this, for anybody. However, if you’re stuck and the only way is to take out that mast I am fully supportive of anyone doing that.”
In mid-May, Garrett was arrested and charged with malicious communications offences that are understood not to relate to his 5G campaigning.
A Northumbria Police spokesman said: “We can confirm that a 28-year-old man was arrested on Monday (May 18) evening after a report of malicious communication. The man who was arrested has since been charged with the offence of sending a communication causing anxiety and distress.
“Lee Garrett, 28, of Brandywell, Leam Lane, is due to appear before South Tyneside Magistrates’ Court on June 16.”
