British Fascism: Know your Enemy

March 8, 2015

Below is the first in a series of infographics produced by UKAktion, with the aim of demystifying the British far-right so that antifascists can more effectively combat them. Feel free to download and spread around, there is both a higher-quality, larger .PNG file, and a standard .JPEG file. Credit to La Horde for original idea.

BTW I think you mean Golden Dawn and not New Dawn if you mean the green neo-nazi party.

  No, there is a British branch called New Dawn.

It’s great that you’ve had a go at doing this, but this is riddled with inaccuracies. It doesn’t really reflect well on anti-fascism in the UK that things like this are being put out.

    Well, for example, National Action’s main founders split from Youth BNP activities.

    national front link with pretty much everyone. nick griffin for one! british movement are guiding national action and they def have regular contact. EVF, SEA, NWI, SDF, P&M, NA etc are all connected to MFE and are frequently seen together.
    
    still good idea though.

    Well we can’t fit everything on one graphic,and anything like this is inevitably going to be a simplification, as it’s designed for people who aren’t already clued up on the links between far-right groups. That said, NA and MFE have nothing to do with each other and are certainly not seen together. Unless you’re talking about Layzell, who isn’t NA.

Please research the “Patriotic Socialist Party”. They seem dodgy to me.

This is nothing but a time wasting focus on minnows whilst aristocrats shit all over you. Honestly, you’ve got Joshua Bonehill – a confused and quite probably mentally ill young man – as a fascist threat? Do you really think that anyone on this infographic represents a genuine risk when held up against the damage that groups like Serco, G4S or the majority of the House of Lords get away with on a daily?

  Obviously we recognise Bonehill is no threat, his inclusion in the graphic is a joke… because no one, left or right, likes him. Also, I agree – however, organising on the left is made easier, and possible in some places, due to an antifascist presence.

  Neo-Nazis are unlikely to take over Britain but they are very effective at stirring up young idiots into making the life of racial minorities in predominantly white areas very unpleasant.
