Entity: Sam Wilkes (Zoomer Historian) 
 Semantic Summary 
 Guernsey-born neo-nazi content creator and Holocaust denier who operates the "Zoomer Historian" YouTube channel (~171,000 subscribers), described by HOPE not Hate as a "Hitler-apologist content creator". Politicised only in the late 2010s through American far-right "groyper" content such as Nick Fuentes', he sees himself as the successor to Holocaust denier David Irving. A former Homeland Party activist, he is now a key figure in the far-right realignment around Restore Britain, forming the "Laws-Wilkes" axis with close ally Steve Laws — the party's openly racist faction, which won the first round of the internal battle for the party's direction in May 2026. His significance is as a new-generation neo-nazi — young, online-native, YouTube-savvy — bridging the older Holocaust-denial tradition with the modern far-right content creator ecosystem and exemplifying the radicalisation of young men through online pipelines.
