There’s an online dimension to this case:

BBC News, Speakers’ Corner: Edward Little jailed over Hyde Park gun attack plot, 15 Dec 2023 “Last summer, he downloaded extremist propaganda including copies of the al-Qaida publication Inspire.

“The defendant spoke of his desire to get hold of a submachine gun and assault rifle, in encrypted chats on the Threema messaging platform.”
