Homeland – the party of ‘sensible nationalism’ led by a bloke with a swastika tattoo on his chest – assembled for their annual conference at the weekend. And it descended into a shambles, with party security brawling with hotel management, and unhappy members slinking out the back door and wandering the streets looking for somewhere […]

Epping activist arrest sparks new Homeland spat
Former Homeland Party activist Callum Barker, one of the leading figures in the far-right protests at the Bell Hotel in Epping, was arrested in Epping at the weekend. He was later bailed without charge. For the usual legal reasons we cannot comment on the circumstances or potential charges, but we can report that his arrest […]
Homeland Party leader filmed in drunken street brawl
Opponents of Homeland leader Kenny Smith have released a video of him involved in a drunken street brawl only two months ago. The video is only several seconds long but clearly shows Smith, apparently drunk and out of control, fighting in the street and being restrained by others present. Searchlight understands the incident occured in […]
Homeland Party chief warned ‘shut your mouth or we finish your political career’
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 […]
Homeland Party in crisis as hardliners demand leader Kenny Smith quits
Last weekend the Homeland Party’s obese duce Kenny Smith was posing in Vienna (above) as leader of “sensible nationalism”. His overseas liaison officer Martin Kuziel spoke at one of Europe’s best publicised racist rallies, sharing a platform in the Austrian capital with the “identitarian” leader Martin Sellner. But within days another wheel fell off the […]
‘Open letter’ sparks open revolt in Homeland
The Homeland Party is facing an imminent and damaging split, as dissidents supporting Steve Laws have submitted an open letter to the party’s ruling council calling on Kenny Smith to resign. Supporters of party chief Smith are known to be in panic mode and trying to calm down what is growing dissent with Smith’s strategy […]
Exclusive: Homeland defector exposes ugly truth behind ‘sensible nationalism’
Alex Bramham has always been on the right of politics. Last year he stood in the General Election for the right-wing Social Democratic Party. Before that he had been active in the Conservative Party in Manchester where he ran several times as a council candidate. He has also been a prominent activist in gay politics, […]
Homeland Party – are the wheels coming off?
It’s becoming a summer of discontent for all three contenders for the führership of British nazism. Alek Yerbury is well ahead of all competitors in the Hitler-lookalike contest, but as we recently reported, his admission that Searchlight is 99% correct about corruption on the far right hasn’t made him many friends. Long before Yerbury changed […]
Fascists target Reform for infiltration
In a move predicted by Searchlight last year, UK neo-nazis led by Patriotic Alternative boss Mark Collett are planning to systematically infiltrate Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party. Collett has posted his intentions on the PA telegram feed, where he and Unity News Network host and PA sympathiser David Clews have posted a pompous “… declaration […]
Homeland candidate echoes nazis with ‘untermensch’ slur
We said only recently that the problem with nazis trying to be respectable is that they just can’t keep their true beliefs buttoned down for very long. Then, we were talking about antisemitic remarks at last month’s Homeland Party conference. Now, another Homeland member has got himself into trouble by shooting his mouth off online. […]
Homeland – where ‘sensible nationalism’ meets sniggery antisemitism
Last weekend’s Homeland Party Remigration Conference was predictable in many ways. The party of ‘sensible nationalism’ ordered its (male) troops to turn up in suits and ties and a good behaviour injunction was observed even when a small group of anti-fascists turned up outside the venue in Bourne, Lincolnshire. Well, most of the time, that […]
Council launches enquiry into Homeland conference booking
Ashley Baxter, the Leader of South Kesteven District Council released the following statement yesterday announcing an enquiry into how council premises came to be booked by the fascist Homeland Party for its ‘Remigration’ conference on Saturday. The venue, kept a closely guarded secret by Homeland, was first revealed by Searchlight yesterday morning. At 9.44 this […]
Homeland Party – the anatomy of a split
The great Homeland Party split (reported by Searchlight as it unfolded during the Easter weekend) has hardened within the past 24 hours. 2025 is starting to look very much like 1980. After the 1979 general election setback, the National Front split in several directions, then split again in 1983-4, and again in 1986-7. Four way […]
Crisis in Homeland Party as leading figure quits
Steve Laws, one of the leading and most high-profile members of the Homeland Party, has resigned from the party in protest following the appointment of a controversial figure as the party’s Northern Ireland Organiser. But he has launched a much wider attack on the leadership which reflects a deeper split in the party. Laws was […]
‘Gay’ row threatens to split Homeland Party
Following our report yesterday, Homeland Party leader Kenny Smith’s Easter has got even worse. On Thursday night Smith lost his star speaker Renaud Camus due to a Home Office banning order. And tonight, a second speaker at the Homeland Party’s upcoming Remigration Conference has thrown his leader under a bus. There has even been talk […]
Homeland Party blow as star speaker is banned
It’s going to be a long Good Friday for Kenny Smith, leader of what he calls the “sensible nationalist” Homeland Party, after he suffered two serious setbacks in the past 24 hours. First, the star speaker at Homeland’s remigration conference, one of Europe’s most infamous Islamophobes, was barred from the country on the Home Secretary’s […]
Britain First leader Paul Golding in ‘You’re nazis’ attack on Homeland Party
Hostilities between groups on Britain’s extreme right have taken a bizarre turn with Paul Golding, leader of Britain First, launching into a furious attack on Homeland Party boss Kenny Smith, accusing him of being a nazi with a swastika tattoo on his chest and challenging him to show his chest and prove it’s not true. […]
PA leader Collett in desperate ‘state asset’ attack on Homeland Party boss
Patriotic Alternative, the neo-fascist political entity that has housed and harboured many a convicted criminal, is in trouble and leader Mark Collett has launched a desperate smear attack on one of his leading rivals accusing him of being a state asset. PA’s founding core group included many closely associated with the prescribed terrorist group National […]
Wars and culture wars fracture Britain’s far right
Britain’s fascists are tearing into each other with accusations of selling out and betrayal, and big problems are looming ahead of a high-profile conference next month. Searchlight is never surprised when far right leaders place personal ambitions and financial greed above their supposed principles. But the most recent name-calling between Mark Collett of Patriotic Alternative and […]
As the UK goes to the polls, fascists wet their lips at prospect of Tory collapse
By Paul Gale After all the flags of convenience, dog-whistles and evasions of this election campaign, how does the British far right look on polling day, and what are its plans for the new Parliament? We can start by looking at one constituency that British fascists have been heavily publicising this week. Leigh and Atherton […]
