A "ginger extremist" who fantasised about shooting Britain's Prince Charles so Harry could be king has been found guilty of plotting a terror attack.

37-year-old Mark Colborne from Southampton made notes in his diary of his plan to assassinate the royal heir with a high powered sniper rifle.

During his trial, the court also heard how he had manuals with titles like Assorted Nasties, Silent Death and The Poor Man's James Bond.

Colborne was caught when his half-brother and mother found papers detailing his racial hatred in his "extremely cluttered" bedroom.

While the jury found him guilty of plotting a terror attack, it rejected aspects of the allegations that he had chemicals to make leathal posions.

The court heard Colborne felt alienated and marginalised for being a white, ginger-haired man and also suffered from agoraphobia and depression.
