Homeland Party duce Kenny Smith declared war on his enemies at a recent ‘Remigration conference’ and his enemies have now hit back – with threats that there would be consequences if he didn’t ‘shut his mouth.’
Smith was a guest speaker at a far-right conference in Norway two weeks ago. But he spent the first half of his speech slagging off his enemies.
Enemies on the right
And this time his enemies weren’t anti-fascists or immigrants. Smith’s targets were his enemies on the right. Men who had been his friends and allies inside Homeland until quite recently, such as former party treasurer Jerome O’Reilly.
The topic of the conference was (yet again) “remigration”, the new European racist term for what they used to call repatriation.
But most of Smith’s speech was given over to an attack on “right-wing snowflakes”, seen as a thinly veiled attack on his loudest online critics who quit Homeland in another split earlier this year and have since teamed up with O’Reilly.
The two principal targets of Smith’s scorn (unnamed but unmistakeable) were Steve Laws and Sam Wilkes. Laws has become one of the most prolific racists on X, since Elon Musk began allowing the platform to be an unrestrained forum for hate.
Wilkes specialises more in antisemitism and calls himself “Zoomer Historian”.
Smith derided them as “the undisciplined and the foolish, who embarrass parties in public and put other people off joining the struggle.”
The portly duce went on to paint them as immature individuals who “say edgy things to look transgressive, yet are so petty, emotional, and self-absorbed that they cannot work for the collective good. They cannot put the movement or the party first.”
In an obvious reference to the recent online stream in which O’Reilly and fellow ex-Homelander Kai Stephens spewed out their factional bile against him, Smith said “these people cannot work as a team, because it is always about their feelings”.
“If you tell them they’re wrong, they take it as a personal slight.”
Smith portrays himself as the voice of “sensible nationalism”. Even though his party’s election results have so far been pathetic they have played a prominent role in the Bell Hotel demonstrations in Epping and in Nuneaton.
However, their key Epping organiser, Callum Barker, is amongst those who have quit.
Smith now accuses the recent splitters of living “in an online echo chamber”.
“They think that because a handful of anonymous accounts cheer them on, the world is with them. They’ve got to realise that the world doesn’t revolve around their feelings, and quite frankly I’ve got no tolerance for them.”
Steve Laws has hit back with what seems to be a threat to spill secrets from his time inside Homeland:
“Keep your mouth shut Kenny, or I’ll bring to light a few things that’ll finish your political career.
“Final warning.”
Swastika tattoo
Many fellow fascists assume that Laws is sitting on information that would discredit Smith’s attempts to reinvent himself as a moderate.
For example, his former ally Mark Collett, führer of Patriotic Alternative, has frequently claimed that Smith has a swastika tattooed on his chest.
Britain First leader Paul Golding went further, challenging Smith to get his top off and prove the allegation to be untrue. So far, Smith has resisted the challenge.
We are happy to say that Searchlight isn’t so familiar as Collett or Golding with the intimate details of Smith’s anatomy. But if Laws has proof, we would be more than happy to receive and disseminate it.
Or perhaps he can find a way of posting it on X that isn’t too obscene even for Elon Musk’s moderators?
