Nation Revisited

The Lamp Posts of Baghdad
The swift arrest and sentencing of the two
rapists, who killed the British girl in Thailand, contrast sharply with our own
creaking police and courts. If these evil thugs had committed their crime in
the UK they would probably never have been caught. If they had been caught they
would have got off on some legal technicality or been given a light sentence of
which they would serve less than half. Britain is no longer a civilized country
but a collapsed empire in the final stages of decay. Everything fine and decent is suspect to the
perverse lunatics who control us; patriotism is politically incorrect, pride in
being European is even worse, love or the English language and culture is
elitist. Everything repulsive is glorified including; discordant music,
meaningless lyrics, idiotic fashions and infantile behaviour.
Our traditions are ridiculed and our faith
has collapsed under political pressure. If you report a robbery to the Police
they are more likely to arrest you than to look for the criminals. If you have
been careful with your money the State will rob you but those who arrive with
nothing are showered with handouts.
Parents who discipline their children are
pilloried but perverts who rape children get piddling prison sentences. Drug
dealers openly sell their wares on the streets while the Police look the other
way. Our politicians are not just useless they are corrupt and utterly
contemptible.
When Saddam Hussein led the 1968 Iraqi
Revolution it was reported that the lamp posts of Baghdad were groaning under
the weight of the corrupt politicians hanging from them.
What a sight that must have been.
Remembering Coal
The recent gas dispute between Russia and
Ukraine has highlighted Britain’s increasing reliance on imported gas. Our own
natural gas production is slowing down and we are importing from Russia and
North Africa. In the old days we used to process coal to make gas. This worked
for two hundred years before we discovered natural gas and decided to abandon
the coal industry. The result has been mass unemployment in the coalmining
areas and the loss of an industry that gave meaning to the lives of
thousands. It is only a matter of time
before the government rediscovers coal and launches a feasibility study on its
potential as a power source. With modern technology it should be possible to
produce coal gas more efficiently than in the old days. There is certainly no
shortage of coal. The industry was shut down by a greedy and short-sighted government
that was determined to break the unions and make lots of money by exploiting
natural gas. The coal is still there under the ground, all we need is a
government that can see further than the next dividend.
John Amery
John Amery was born on 14th
March 1912 and executed on 19th December 1945. After his education
at Harrow and London University he fought for the Nationalists in the Spanish
Civil War and was granted Spanish citizenship. Following General Franco’s
victory Amery moved to France where he campaigned with the fascist leaders
Jaques Doriot and Marcel Deat, who both fought for Germany as French
volunteers. There he met his wife Jeannine Barde, who he described in his last
statement as “my beloved friend and political revolutionary.”
He began broadcasting for the Germans in
1942 and started to raise a Free Corps from amongst British prisoners of war to
fight on the Eastern Front. His recruiting leaflet ends with the words; “This
conflict between England and Germany is racial suicide. We must unite and take
up arms against the common enemy. We ask you to come into our ranks and fight
shoulder to shoulder for Europe and for England.” In 1945 he was in Italy
broadcasting for the Fascist Republic when he was captured by Partisans and
brought back to England for trial at the Old Bailey.
The Crown-appointed psychiatrist Dr Edward
Glover never examined John Amery but nevertheless made a diagnosis of moral
insanity; this was based on evidence from parents and teachers that he had
suffered a period of bed-wetting as a child and had been suspected of
masturbation! Faced with a court that disregarded the diagnosis of insanity and
his Spanish citizenship John Amery pleaded guilty.
The Times of 29th November 1945
reported:
The Judge then said to him: “John Amery I
have read the depositions and the exhibits in this case, and I am satisfied
that you knew what you did and that you did it intentionally and deliberately
after you had received warning from more than one of your fellow countrymen
that the course you were pursuing amounted to high treason. They called you a
traitor and you heard them; but in spite of that you continued in that course.
You now stand a self-confessed traitor to your King and country, and you have
forfeited the right to live.” The Judge then passed the only sentence allowed;
death by hanging. Amery had kept his eyes on the Judge throughout his remarks
and while he passed sentence. Showing no sign of emotion, he bowed with dignity
to the Judge and turned to walk down the steps to the cells. No jury was sworn
and the Attorney-General did not speak throughout the brief hearing.
The South African Prime Minister Jan Smuts
made an appeal to British Prime Minister Clement Atlee on the grounds that the
offence had been ideological and not criminal but it was rejected. The hangman
Albert Pierrepoint described John Amery as the bravest man that he had ever had
to hang. When his mother asked to see her son’s grave in 1948 she was refused.
He left us two works “England and Europe” a synopsis of the situation in 1943
and “John Amery Speaks” a collection of his wartime radio transcripts. Both are
available from Final Conflict, BCM Box 6358, London WC1N 3XX
The Far Right in the United Kingdom
The term far-Right inadequately describes
the various nationalist movements that often have progressive social policies.
They are united by hostility to non-European immigration and a distrust of
international capitalism. They are descended from the prewar fascist movements
and contain diverse elements of political, economic and esoteric thought. These
ideas are not exclusive to any single party but are present in various
proportions in all of them.
Their postwar history has been well
documented. Groups have come together and split apart with regularity. These
splits have been about strategy and personalities rather than policy; the only
real difference in ideology has been about European Union.
The main parties take part in local and
parliamentary elections just like the established parties. The smaller groups
tend to avoid elections and often justify their inactivity by claiming that
participation is a waste of time. Some of these groups are not much more than a
magazine and a website.
The British National Party is the biggest
and most successful nationalist movement since the National Front of the 1970s.
They have got more than twenty serving Councilors and fought 119 seats in the
2005 General Election, averaging nearly 5%. Nick Griffin has softened the party
line and tried to appeal to a wider audience but this has not stopped him being
charged with inciting racial hatred. The government has mounted an illegal
campaign against the BNP including interfering with communications and seizing
publications, but so far the courts have decided in the party’s favour. They
publish a newspaper called ‘Freedom’ and the magazine ‘Identity’ edited by John
Bean.
The National Front is still trying to
recover from the setback of 1979 when Margaret Thatcher sunk their hopes by
making false promises to control immigration. The NF contested 13 seats in the
2005 General election averaging less than 2%. Their magazine is called ‘The Flame.’
The British People’s Party sprang from the
Spearhead Group that backed the late John Tyndall against nick Griffin for the
leadership of the BNP. The BPP was founded in 2005 and has not yet stood in any elections. They have two publications ‘Imperium’ and
‘Vanguard.’
The Nationalist Alliance is another
offshoot from the Tyndall faction that attempts to support the nationalist movement in
general.
The Freedom Party is led by barrister
Adrian Davies; it boasts an impressive list of contributors and tries even
harder than the BNP to be respectable. In the 2005 General Election they put up
one candidate and got less than 2%.
The England First Party advocates a new
federation of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. They have made a promising
start in local elections. The EFP distribute the magazine ‘Heritage and
Destiny.’
The rest of the parties of the far-Right do
not contest elections but concentrate on street activities such as
demonstrations and sales of papers.
British Movement is an openly National
Socialist group originally founded by Colin Jordan in 1968. They publish a
magazine called ‘Broadsword.’
The IX November Society is another National
Socialist group that broke away from Union Movement in 1977. Their leader Kevin
Quinn has been prosecuted for inciting racial hatred. Their magazine is called
‘Britain Awake.’
England First (not to be confused with the
England First Party) is part of the International Third Position that is linked
to nationalist movements all over the world. Their fanzine is called ‘Final
Conflict.’
Third Way is a similar but unconnected
movement based on Patrick Harrington’s interpretation of the ideas of Hillaire
Belloc and GK Chesterton.
Both groups came from the Political Soldier
faction of the 1980s National Front.
Since the demise of Union Movement
following the death of Sir Oswald Mosley in 1980 and Jeffrey Hamm in 1994 their
ideas have been propagated by The Friends of Mosley with their magazine
‘Comrade’ and their excellent website. Thousands of people have passed through
UM over the years and although many of them are in the BNP or other parties
they have kept faith with the European ideal. From 2005 an independent paper
‘European Action’ has been launched by Robert Edwards to cater for this
readership and in support of a National Party for Europe.
The far-Right is unlikely to get Members of
Parliament elected under the first-past-the-post system but they are more than
capable of getting the five percent that would trigger representation under the
electoral reforms proposed by the EU. Britain would then have nationalist MPs
as well as local Councilors. This would be the breakthrough that the government
is desperate to stop with new legislation to limit freedom of speech; but the
far-Right has a long history of surviving persecution, imprisonment and even
execution; they will surely survive this latest round of state repression.
Withdrawal from the EU remains a BNP
fixation but far-Right advances throughout Europe, in reaction to third world
immigration, has worked wonders for European solidarity. With a good campaign
and a reasonable candidate nationalist parties can expect to get 5-10%. This
average has been remarkably consistent; even after the war in the Fifties,
following the Spearhead Trial and the Trafalgar Square Riot in the Sixties,
during the heyday of the NF in the Seventies, throughout the financial crisis
of the Nineties and right up to the present. Parties and leaders have come and
gone but support has remained constant despite smear campaigns and negative
propaganda.
Most of the leaders of the far-Right have
been imprisoned for their beliefs or suffered loss of employment, physical
violence and threats. Britain’s thriving nationalist movement is a tribute to
the brave men and women who have soldiered on and kept the flag flying.
Views on the News
Washington has admitted that prisoners of
war have been flown around the world to be interrogated in places like Egypt
and Romania. This would allow torture to be used without breaking United States
laws. Secret flights have been made from the UK but Tony Blair says that there
is no evidence of torture and Condoleeza Rice has said that these flights are
necessary to defend democracy. When poor Ali has the electrodes clamped to his testicles
he can take comfort in the idea that it’s all in a good cause. Security experts
believe that the methods of torture include the use of drugs and sensory
deprivation but doubt that prisoners are forced to listen to Donald Rumsfeld
soundbites.
Spokesmen for the Police rank and file have
stated that they will protest if any move is made against officers for shooting
an innocent man at Stockwell. They suggest that policemen will hand in their
guns if prosecutions are brought. Blair wants to amalgamate the police forces
and Dave Cameron wants to sack bad cops; the best idea would be to militarize
them. Soldiers are not asked their opinion about policy nor are they entitled
to hand in their guns. If they disobey orders they can simply be brought before
a military court and dealt with as mutineers. Policemen enjoy strutting about
carrying guns so it’s only fair that they should be treated like soldiers. They
are highly paid but unbelievably inefficient; if they were operating in the
private sector they would all be fired.
Abu Hamza the militant Moslem and Nick
Griffin the militant Christian are both on trial for inciting racial hatred. Is
this a coincidence or some kind of democratic balancing act?
There is wisdom and poetry in the holy
books but there are a lot of bloodthirsty passages that were written centuries
ago for audiences less sophisticated than today. Quotations out of context add
to this spiteful literature and encourage religious animosity. The answer does
not lie in prosecution but in the acceptance of reality.
Legislation will not make people respect
each other. Nations evolved to protect cultures and languages; they were not
imposed but developed organically. Forcing diverse races and nations to share
the same small island will always run the risk of conflict.
Venezuela and Bolivia have announced a
trade deal that will barter oil for food without using US Dollars. The Banks
will take a very dim view of the development.
If South Americans can trade without money
there will be nothing to stop Germany sending cars to Russia and accepting
payment in gas; or Argentina exchanging beef for British machine tools; or
China swapping computers for French brandy. That would mean that nations would
not have to borrow the money from the bankers, or pay interest on the loan, or
exchange commission on the currency, or bank fees on the transaction.
It would give rich nations the chance to
help poorer nations without huge sums of money being confiscated by the banks.
Very soon we will be told that these third
world nations are really a great threat to the West and Britain will be backing
an American plan to defend democracy by dropping half tonne bombs on Caracas
and La Paz.
Nation Revisited is a private communication
that is not for general distribution.
