Head of London's Metropolitan Police Service says England will go after overseas individuals who break UK law by posting "incitement" or "hatred" online. It's unclear whether this only refers to English citizens abroad.

Either way, these people are genuinely evil.

If they even TRY with Americans then Trump would grandstand telling them to get fucked to their face.

I can think of NO country, not even Canada or Australia or even the EU, that would extradite it's citizens for 'breaking UK speech laws'.

As for their own citizens abroad, you might have more requests for naturalisation and surrendering British nationality if they did try which would just be an even worse image globally.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernst_Z%C3%BCndel

On 5 February 2003, Ernst Zündel was detained by local police in the U.S. and deported to Canada, where he was detained for two years on a security certificate for being a foreign national considered a threat to national security pending a court decision on the validity of the certificate. Once the certificate was upheld, he was deported to Germany and tried in the state court of Mannheim on outstanding charges of incitement of Holocaust denial dating from the early 1990s. On February 15, 2007, he was convicted and sentenced to the maximum term of five years in prison. All these imprisonments and prosecutions were for inciting hatred against an identifiable group.[9] He was released on March 1, 2010.[10]

It wouldn’t be totally without precedent… though I suppose Zundel’s citizenship status complicated things, he had been a resident of Canada from 1958-2000

A more relevant precedent is the fate of Liberty Reserve. Its corporate officers, having never set foot in the US, were arrested in Spain, and their servers in Costa Rica were seized, and they were taken to Jew York to face money laundering charges, all because their website, which operated a web based currency without asking anyone for ID, was reachable from the US. Legally, it was declared that having a website that's reachable from the US is the same thing as doing business here, no matter where you or your servers are located, and regardless of citizenship.
