Cavan Medlock – the Nazi terrorist sentenced a week ago to an ‘indefinite hospital order’ (in other words psychiatric facility detention) for an attempted knifepoint hostage-taking at a solicitors’ office – was, it can now be revealed, at one stage being groomed to join the leadership stream of the UK Independence Party. In September 2020, […]

Reform candidates benefit from low turnouts in council by elections
”We came a close second. The Conservatives got 1,304 votes. We got 977. Nearly a thousand votes in 4 weeks. We now have 5 months until the next one.” Thus trumpeted Reform candidate Tom Allison (above, centre, with Nigel Farage), proud of his losing bid to become an Essex County Councillor on Thursday. It was […]
Traditional Britain fiasco sparks accusations of betrayal on far right
The cancellation of the Traditional Britain Group annual Xmas event in London last weekend has kicked off a bitter blame game on the far right, with accusation of betrayal made against one of the far right’s most prominent figures. The fact that the secret venue of the meeting became known to their opponents is being […]
UKIP liars not welcome in Southampton
UKIP ‘Leader’ (he’s still unelected) Nick Tenconi has go the hump that a meeting he was due to address in Southampton has been cancelled. It is, he says, all down to left-wing intimidation. As usual he’s lying. False pretences He booked the venue (The View Bar) as ‘Nick’ for ‘After Work Drinks’ So, not unreasonably, […]
Fascists upset at a taste of their own medicine
Well, those nazi ‘intellectual’ poseurs at Heritage and Destiny magazine are getting themselves into a right lather over the Traditional Britain gig in London that was called off last weekend when anti-fascists turned up outside, sporting a banner saying (wonderfully) ‘Fuck Off Posh Nazis’. If the far right really don’t want their meetings targeted, they […]
Anniversary of a fascist outrage – and how the NF lauded the man behind it
Fifty five years ago today, in December 1969, members of the Italian fascist terror group Ordine Nuovo detonated a bomb at the Banca Nazionale dell’Agricoltura, in Piazza Fontana in Milan, killing 17 people and wounding 88 more. Other bombs were planted in Milan and Rome on the same day. It was a key moment in […]

As we reported yesterday, the Traditional Britain Group (TBG) will tonight welcome Pete North (above), an ex-UKIP activist and recent recruit to the fascist Homeland Party, as guest speaker at its Christmas party in central London.

Hero’s welcome for far right assassin of ANC leader
Janusz Walus, the racist fanatic who murdered Nelson Mandela’s right-hand man Chris Hani in 1993, has been deported from South Africa to his native Poland. He arrived at an airport in Warsaw this morning. The assassin, who spent almost 30 years in South African prisons after his death sentence was commuted, was greeted as a […]
Homeland Party speaker to star at Traditional Britain Group Xmas event
While we are not hugely surprised to see that Traditional Britain Group (TBG) have unveiled Pete ‘No Dick’ North (above) as the star turn at their annual Christmas social this Saturday (7 December), we are a touch puzzled at quite how coy they are about his current affiliations. Honoured guest speaker ‘Our honoured guest speaker […]
UKIP – all aboard Chairman Walker’s magic roundabout
A flurry of activity in UKIP-world following the ‘appointment’ of eleven new members to the party’s National Executive Committee has raised some intriguing questions which may enliven the first meeting of the new NEC at London’s Union Jack Club this weekend. Only a few days ago no fewer than seven of the new batch of […]
Rival nazi groups come together at mystery international conference
On 24 November an international nazi conference took place in Sweden. Only one of the participants – Holocaust denier Lady Michèle Renouf was English, but the speeches were all given in or translated into English, and the event’s title was in English: “European Unity – A Future to Fight For”. It seems that the organisers […]
Heritage Party leader bemoans ‘injustice’ for holocaust-denying nazi
Searchlight has been reporting for several months on the increasing radicalisation of right-wing parties. Not just the obviously racist and neo-nazi right, but the constellation of parties and groups that are just outside the Conservative Party (and sometimes overlap with the Tory right). The clearest example of this came a fortnight ago when David Kurten […]
Britain First: The end of the road?
As the party lurches from defeat to disaster, Mark Scholl wonders how much longer its leader, Paul Golding, can continue to kid enough people to fund his futile activities In 2016, Paul Golding and his ex‑girlfriend Jayda Fransen were able to lead several hundred supporters through Rotherham in a protest against so-called grooming gangs. This […]
A shifting kaleidoscope: the state of Britain’s far right at the end of 2024
The current crop of extremist parties and hangers-on follows the same pattern of chopping and changing alliances as in the past. Among this year’s newbies is the Homeland Party, which may – or may not – have prospects. Paul Gale reports This autumn sees Britain’s far-right facing fundamental choices. Searchlight has monitored the usual personal […]
Pssst…Britain First are having a demo. But it’s a SECRET!
This is going to be interesting – BF leader Paul Golding has been boasting about having 20k paid up members. Now he is calling a demo in the Midlands on November 30th. He claims it will be their biggest demo ever. So, it’s put up or shut up time. We will see just how many […]
Is ’two-tier policing’ real? Perhaps – but not in the sense the far right means
On 19 October the far right were granted their post-Southport riots martyr when Peter Lynch died at Moorland Prison. Lynch, aged 61, was just eight weeks into a sentence of two years and eight months for his part in the riot at the Holiday Inn Express in Manvers, Rotherham, on 4 August. The cause of […]
‘Batshit preacher’ to be trumped by Farage?
Nigel Farage has, predictably, been basking in his purported friendship with Donald Trump ever since the disastrous Presidential election result was announced last week. But he’s not the only one. Also posting pictures of himself with the great sex offender is the UK’s far right ‘batshit preacher’, Calvin Robinson, who recently decamped to the US […]
Reform UK’s Plymouth cess pit
Nigel Farage’s Reform UK say they’ve been cleaning up their act since dozens of fascists, racists and other extremists were found in their ranks in the general election, and expelled. But it seems nobody has told them about the party organisation in the southwest. Local anti-fascists in Exeter and Teignbridge have exposed a snake pit […]
What Trump’s election means
We are not going to try to list all the ways in which the election of Donald Trump is a catastrophe. That is being comprehensively catalogued in many, many other places and we all know there is much to be feared. Suffice to say that those who believed that the election of Barack Obama in […]
The nazi who planned a US massacre and helped set up Combat 18
By Mark Scholl This weekend we remember the victims of the Greensboro massacre in 1979, when Ku Klux Klan and Nazi Party gunmen attacked an anti-Klan demonstration in Greensboro, North Carolina, leaving five anti-racist demonstrators shot dead. The main character behind this attack was Harold ‘Chubby’ Covington, the Nazi Party leader. Some of his gunmen […]
