Adam Brooks, the rising star of the British right, often refers to the gangland murder of his father in Essex, but never in any detail.

It’s an open secret among gangsters and cops who killed him and why. But despite the murder taking place in a busy pub, no one would make a witness statement against the notorious crime family member responsible.

Now, underworld and police sources closely involved with the investigation have spoken exclusively to The Upsetter about the gangsterism behind the unsolved murder.

Brooks was only a boy when he lost his father in 1991 and vowed to honour his name as someone in the pub and club game who stood his ground.

He got his chance fifteen years later coming up against organised crime while running an Essex bar popular with premiership footballers and the Towie crowd.

When violence in the Essex club scene got too much, Brooks got out to run two local family pubs.

Most of his time is spent building a grassroots right wing political base using his more than 400,000 followers on social media to beat up the government, mainstream media and lefties over immigration, welfare and wokery.

Concerned Essex residents have been joined by hooligans and far right activists in showing support for the loquacious and likeable 45-year-old.

Adam Brooks was the face of summer protests over the housing of unprocessed male asylum seekers at The Bell Hotel in Epping.

The accidental early release of an Ethiopian asylum seeker who had been jailed for sexual offences against a local teenage girl while staying at the hotel heaped ridicule on Keir Starmer’s government last month.

Further unrest is likely across England after the High Court ruled last week against Epping Forest District Council’s attempt to stop The Bell from housing asylum seekers.

Brooks denies he is far right. He’s just a dad concerned for the safety of girls and women and for the future of England.

The Essex businessman is a now prominent voice on the right-wing tv station GB News, co-owned by the pro-Brexit, hedge funder and christian Sir Paul Marshall, whose tweets did not get in the way of a successful bid for The Spectator.

There’s even talk that Brooks is a potential parliamentary candidate for Nigel Farage’s Reform party or even the Tories, if they can win him back.

Here’s what The Upsetter has learned about the violent past that has made Adam Brooks the sort after man he is today.
