UKIP GUN IS LOCKED AND LOADED AND POINTING AT THE HEAD OF TORY REMAINERS

by Trad News

Thanks to the turbulence being caused by the Brexit negotiations, UK politics are particularly unstable at the moment.

This could easily lead to the collapse of Prime Minister Theresa May's shambolic government, and we might even see a general election being announced within weeks or even days. After that, who knows what will happen.

UKIP POSITION THEMSELVES IN THE POPULIST CENTER

by Trad News 

In a barnstorming speech delivered at the latest UKIP Conference, held in England's second city of Birmingham (now 53% British), UKIP leader Gerard Batten outlined a radical populist program, with elements both from the right and left.

WHAT HAPPENED IN LEWISHAM EAST?

Waters: emotive cadences

by Colin Liddell

The latest event in British "right-wing" politics was the Lewisham East by-election, which took place on the 14th of June. 

The former MP, a white woman by the name of Heidi Alexander, had resigned in order to join Sadiq Khan's London government in the role of deputy mayor for transport. This caused the special election.

BREXIT HANGS LIKE A SHADOW AND A PESTILENCE UPON THE LAND

With Brexit, Britain was a "light unto the nations," but the aftermath has not been good for British nationalism.

The darkling skies of "Westmonster"

by Colin Liddell

When it comes to nationalism, Britain is now the sick man of Europe.

The recent German election proved that. A formerly cucked nation now has over 90 nationalist representatives in its parliament, sniping at the weakened Merkel.

Britain, by contrast, has zilch.

ANTI-JIHADISTS COULD TAKE OVER HOLLOWED-OUT HUSK OF UKIP

by Alt-Right News

UKIP basically committed political suicide when they got what they wanted—BREXIT. The recent general election results, where the party got 1.8% of the votes, proved that. Plus Nigel Farage knows the game is up. Recently he said he wouldn't be standing for the position of leader.

The way for the party to have stayed alive would have been to develop an equally compelling policy while they were pushing for BREXIT so that when BREXIT became a non-issue they would have had something to fall back on. But UKIP were never much good at thinking ahead.

Politically the party is just a hollowed-out husk, but it is still quite a big brand name, so if it were able to find an issue to campaign on, there might be a chance of reviving it. There is even the possibility that this is now happening after reports of a surge of new members, most of whom are thought to be anti-jihadist civic nationalists who strongly oppose Islam.

CONSERVATIVES SWEEP UK LOCAL ELECTIONS: UKIP DESTROYED

Babies have been kissed, dogs patted, etc.

by Alt-Right News

British politics is going through an interesting phase. One year after the Brexit vote, the national mood seems to be pointed towards a slightly cuckish, right-of-centre Euro-skeptic Conservatism, combined with cynicism about almost every other party.

Add to this the fact that UKIP effectively sawed off the branch it was sitting on, and you get the latest local election results in the UK, namely massive but unenthusiastic gains for the Conservative Party, massive losses for a Labour Party that has been hijacked by its activist base, and the collapse of UKIP.

A NIGEL TO REMEMBER

by Colin Liddell

It was the great British politician Enoch Powell who said, "All political lives, unless they are cut off in midstream at a happy juncture, end in failure." The political life of Nigel Farage, however, has defied Powell's maxim, with the UKIP leader choosing to end his career neither in failure nor in "midstream." The tremendous victory achieved by the Brexit vote a few days ago means that he has crossed over the river and achieved the one goal he always defined his career by.

THE RECENT UK SUB-NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTIONS

Sign of the times: London's new mayor.

by Colin Liddell

Earlier this week a number of elections below the UK state parliamentary level were held in Britain. This included elections for the Scottish Parliament, the Welsh Assembly, some local councils, and the mayor of London.

Usually midterm elections favour the chief opposition party, which in this case is the Labour Party, with its recently-elected leader, the extreme Leftist, Jeremy Corbyn. This time they didn’t. Instead of winning hundreds of council seats as is usual, Labour actually lost a handful, as well as control of one council Dudley in the West Midlands (population 312,900 – 93% White).

PODCAST 29: CAMERON'S SECOND COMING

A week ago, David Cameron's stint as Prime Minister seemed all but over. Labour and the Conservatives were neck-and-neck in the opinion polls, and there were a host of smaller, left-leaning parties getting ready to do a deal with the Labour Party, a deal that would have made Ed Miliband Prime Minister. But then a sudden late swing confounded all the pollsters and put the ex-Eton public schoolboy back in for a second term. 

Andy and Colin discuss what happened to cause the astounding upset, as well as the ins-and-outs of Cameron's "Second Coming," which will also include an in-out referendum on EU membership.

LESSONS FROM THE UK ELECTIONS

by Colin Liddell

The UK elections have come and gone, and the story is now quickly fading into the twilight. So, what happened? What did we actually learn?

PODCAST 28: HANGING THE PARLIAMENT

Unfortunately, a "hung parliament" doesn't mean quite what you would want it to mean, merely being a British expression for a parliament in which no political party has a majority. With the UK general election just round the corner, Andy and Colin discuss what is sure to be one of the most interesting elections in British political history, with the only certainty being uncertainty.

THE MILIBAND MASQUERADE?

Milibang!

by Colin Liddell

Democratic politics always has had an ugly side, both in the types of personalities it attracts and the devious behaviour it encourages. The main reason for this is that it allows the broad masses to vote, lowering the audience IQ to a level that incentivizes the low-grade deceptions of unscrupulous politicians.

Ugly as it is, it certainly didn’t get any more aesthetically pleasing when Ed Miliband was elected leader of the Labour Party in 2010. With his robotic style and rubbery face, he evokes Mr. Bean possessed by the last of the Body Snatchers, or a piece of “Wallace and Gromit” claymation gone wrong.

For the present general election campaign, which will end on May 7th, a long, hard effort has gone into making “Ed” seem warm and personable – he was actually fitted out with a (rather ugly) wife shortly after becoming leader and was also designated as the father of her two children, although they clearly resemble their mother much more than their supposed father.

In an attempt to 'humanize' this unlikely leadership material he was also carefully coached on body language, facial gestures, voice, and positioning. The process has some similarities to a necrophile heating up the inamorata with which he has just eloped from the local mortuary.

SHOULD WE VOTE UKIP?

Nigel Farage, drinking up the nationalist vote?

by John Bean 

The British Democrats have only one Parliamentary Candidate standing at this election in this early growth period and that is Dr Jim Lewthwaite at Bradford East. Therefore we would recommend that in all other seats you could give your vote to any genuine nationalist or radical right candidate.

THE CRUCIBLE OF CONSENSUS AND THE COUNTER CURRENTS OF BRITISH POLITICS

A cup of tea, how very British!

by Colin Liddell

You'll probably have heard the expression "two cheeks of the same arse" to describe the false political dichotomy of two "centrist" parties offering themselves up to the electorate and producing the usual effluence.

This is almost always the case in US elections, and it has certainly been the case in UK elections, where the "centre right" Conservative Party and the "centre left" Labour Party typically contest power. Except that it's not really power, because whichever party gets in, only gets in by twisting itself into whichever awkward shape conforms best to the dimensions of the crucible of power.

THE BRITISH DEMOCRATS ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The most important nationalist party to emerge from the wreckage of the BNP is probably the British Democratic Party, which was founded two years ago. This video from their recent AGM, features speeches by the party’s President Andrew Brons and some other members. Brons talks about the results of the party’s efforts to build pockets of support while maintaining a low profile.

Well worth watching is Jim Lewthwaite’s excellent speech (from 7:00). He discourses on how the rise of UKIP has helped to legitimize nationalist agendas that it cannot fulfill, and how the BDP can capitalize on this.

An important concept mentioned by Lewthwaite is recapturing the word “internationalist” from the Left by correctly defining it as a dialogue between nationalists from different countries, rather than the anti-nationalism or supra-nationalism that it mistakenly connotes today.

GRIFFIN BITES THE DUST AFTER ELECTION FAILURE

Lights going out for Griffin.

by Kevin Scott

After his election defeat in the recent European elections, Nick Griffin has resigned as Chairman of the BNP; and the party's National Organiser, a former County Durham teacher, Adam Walker, has replaced him.

As a sop to his ego, Griffin has reportedly become "Party President." Apparently, this was all agreed at a meeting of the party's executive body last weekend, much to the disgust of some grassroots members upset at the leadership's failure to consult what remains of the party's dwindling membership.

THE TRIUMPH OF NEGATIVITY

by William Solniger

A common theme on the radical Right is the dilemma over whether to pursue mass political campaigns in the service of our goals, or devote time and effort to organising and educating a smaller group which can separate itself from the sewer of Western culture so as to act freely in the future. On the whole, the overriding tendency is to reject mass political action as unworkable or premature. This is true not only of those who hope to see a restoration of Traditional values in the West, but also of those who confine themselves to the sphere of nationalism and ethnic self-defence.

While I tend to agree with the diagnosis that political action is premature, it is important to note that this is the case only as regards converting the masses to some positive political movement offering a particular solution to the crisis of the West. Converting them to a negative rejection of the current system is another matter entirely, and it is this possibility that I wish to explore.

HOW THE BNP LOST TOUCH WITH BRITAIN

by Mark Collett

The big story of the European Elections has been the rise of the so called ‘far right’ across Europe. Several remarkable results saw the FN top the poll in France, the Freedom Party top the poll in Austria and the Danish People’s Party top the poll in Denmark. All of the aforementioned results are quite remarkable and all are illustrative of a larger, European-wide, anti-immigration and anti-EU sentiment.

In Britain the big story – and the big winner – was UKIP. UKIP topped the polls in nearly every region of the UK and shocked the establishment by coming first overall and ending up with 23 MEPs, making them the largest single party representing the UK in Brussels.

One of the big losers in the UK was obviously the British National Party (BNP). The BNP’s vote collapsed – they saw a drop of over 80% in raw numbers of votes. More shockingly, the BNP’s share of the vote in some regions actually fell beneath their 1999 share of the vote – essentially recording the worst ever results for the party in the European Elections.

RESPECTABILITY

With Europe in the public eye thanks to the European Parliamentary Elections, we are re-running some relevant and informative articles on Euro-nationalism, like this one from 18th July, 2013.

by Adrian Davies

“Respectability” is one of the most confusing and controversial words in our kind of politics, since it is used to convey two quite different, indeed, unrelated meanings.

On the one hand, it means doing just what Nigel Farage of UKIP does: staying within (even if at the limits of) permitted political discourse, running with the fox and hunting with the hounds, especially on the immigration issue, shamelessly protesting his supposed anti-racism but all the while courting the large anti-immigration vote.

Farage would never say that a nation is ultimately an extended kin group based in the last analysis upon ties of blood, not a mere social construct based upon shared language, religion, culture or “values” (which to the British political class in any event mean the false, worthless and inverted “values” of bourgeois liberalism).

THE BROKEN WHIP OF OUR MASTERS

by Colin Liddell 

The recent European elections are not the way that civilizations are saved, and the promising results for a number of slightly more realistic parties may in fact be outliers before the anti-democratic system reasserts itself using its usual tricks. We have been here before. When the BNP threatened the political consensus in the UK a few years ago, there was a sudden clanking of gears and whirring of wheels as the Great Machine went into action to eradicate the threat, which was done by a variety of techniques:

• Racial swamping of the areas involved
• Intense canvassing and the establishment of a detailed voter database to allow tailored approaches to individual voters
• Comforting (and patronizing) noises about the need to understand "the concerns of ordinary voters"
• Cloaked threats about the consequences of voting BNP both at the community level and the individual level
• The promotion of "suitable" alternatives, which is essentially how UKIP got its big start
• Cultural immersion in anti-racism

The result of this is that while the fake nationalists of UKIP have done rather well this time, the UK actually lost the two real nationalist MEPs – Nick Griffin and Andrew Brons – that it had elected last time.
