The far-right, extreme right, hard right, radical right, fascist-right and ultra-right are terms used to discuss the position a group or person occupies within right-wing politics.
Many of these parties stem from either the legacy of Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists, or the political views held by either John Tyndall, Andrew Fountain, Eddy Morrison, Ian Anderson, Colin Jordan and A.K. Chesterton, along with those of their parties like the British National Party, National Front (United Kingdom), National Socialist Movement (1960s), and National Democrats (United Kingdom) over the last 40 years.
Recent times
National Action is a neo-Nazi organisation that was proscribed for glorifying terrorism in December 2016. Raymond has described his organisation as “like the BNP but more radical”. The group was secretive and had rules to prevent members from talking openly about the organisation. One of its supporters, Zach Davies, was convicted of attempted murder, which he stated was motivated by wanting to “avenge Lee Rigby’s murder”, and he spoke of “white power”.
The Britannica Party was a small party founded by Charles Baillie. The party fielded four candidates at the 2012 Glasgow City Council election, receiving a total of 73 votes. The party has been mostly inactive since 2014, and was de-registered as a political party in November 2020.
Britain First, a far-right group founded by Jim Dowson. The party is known for invading mosques and its “Christian patrols”.
In February 2013, the British Democrats were launched by former Member of the European Parliament (MEP) and National Front chairman Andrew Brons, who resigned from the BNP in October 2012 after narrowly failing in his campaign to unseat Nick Griffin as leader of the BNP in 2011. Nick Lowles of Hope not Hate believed the party would be a serious threat to the BNP, commenting “The BDP brings together all of the hardcore Holocaust deniers and racists that have walked away from the BNP over the last two to three years, plus those previously, who could not stomach the party’s image changes”.
Patriotic Alternative (PA), is a political organisation founded by Mark Collett in late 2019, the former director of publicity of the British National Party. Since then, PA has held camping and hiking trips as well as paintballing events. PA has also held days of action, including White Lives Matter banners and light projections onto the White Cliffs of Dover.
The British Hand, is a group founded by a 15 year old teenager, in late 2020. Since then, The British Hand has been at the root of hundreds of pieces of far-right propaganda being released online, especially on the social media app, Telegram, which led Hope Not Hate to start an undercover investigation on this group and later write an article on it, exposing the far-right terror cell.
Homeland, is a group founded by Kenny Smith. Before forming the group, Smith was a senior figure in Patriotic Alternative, but internal divisions led him to form his own group, with the intent of forming a political party by ‘stealth’.
Most recently, in Dorset, many have succumbed to the organised fascists who pretend to be sensible and rational about topics such as immigration but are in fact hiding a very sinister agenda. As can be seen below, there are many ripe for fascist plucking.
