Nation Revisited # 163, May 2020

Great Expectations



Twenty-six
-year-old white nationalist Dylann Roof is awaiting execution for the murder of nine black bible students in Charleston, South Carolina in 2015. His lawyer recently reported that his client has abandoned a hunger strike in protest at his treatment by the prison authorities. He added that Roof was not worried about his sentence because he expects to be freed by his comrades following an impending race war.

Such
sublime confidence reminds me of my old mate Roger Clare, now sadly departed, who joined Union Movement as a teenager in the late Fifties. He asked the branch leader, Fred Shepherd: "how long will it be before we come to power?" Fred answered: "about six months."

Those of us who pushed leaflets through letterboxes for many years do not have such great expectations. We know that the road ahead is long and hard, and we reject white supremacy and mass murder. But we live in interesting times, the coronavirus pandemic is changing everything, governments all over the world are pumping money into the system, nationalizing utilities, and taking emergency powers. Things may never be the same again. Times are changing and who knows what the future holds?

Government by Experts

People who provide services to the public belong to professional associations that issue certificates of competence. If your boiler breaks down you contact a Corgi registered plumber, and if you are ill you visit a doctor with a diploma from the BMA. Nobody with toothache would let an untrained person treat them, and only a fool would consult an unqualified lawyer. We rely on experts to look after us but when it comes to running the country we put our trust in chancers who are not trained for the jobs assigned to them

Rishi Sunak has been promoted from junior housing minister to Chancellor of the Exchequer in one spectacular leap. Defenders of the system argue that ministers do not need to know anything about their jobs because they have senior civil servants to guide them. But these civil servants are being sidelined and ministers are being appointed for their propaganda value rather than their expertise.


Priti Patel is the ideal Home Secretary to enforce the new Tory Immigration Act. She cheerfully admits that her own parents would not have been allowed into Britain under her points-based system. But nobody can accuse her of racism because she is of Asian origin, and therefore exempt.

Ministers are appointed and reshuffled with no regard for qualifications. It would be better to have a soldier as Minister for Defence, a doctor as Minister for Health, a teacher as Minister for Education, a linguist as Foreign Secretary, and so on.  A Government of Experts chosen on merit instead of party political considerations. 

Boris Johnson is is popular with the public at the moment. He has survived an attack of Coronavirus and his girlfriend, Carrie Symonds, has given birth to a baby boy. But he has yet to prove himself as a prime minister and he is surrounded by people like Chris Grayling who was shunted from one job to another until he ended up in charge of security.

Candour

Webmaster Rob Black must be congratulated for bringing out the latest issue of 'Candour'. It's difficult to produce a hard copy magazine at the best of times and even more so when your editor, Colin Todd, is restrained by a probation order.

Issue 872 features a front page cartoon of Britannia fighting the many headed serpent of the EU. It celebrates Brexit, but when we complete the transition period we will probably join the World Trade Organisation. This grew out of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, together with the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. AK Chesterton denounced these branches of the Money Power in 'The New Unhappy Lords'. We will not "get our country back" by leaving the EU and joining the WTO, we will simply swap one trading bloc for another.  

The main article by Hereward More is entitled 'SS Empire Windrush - The Final Betrayal'. 'Candour' has a long tradition of free speech, it even advertises 'Nation Revisited', but Hereward Moore goes beyond reason. He starts off well enough:

"
Candour is not, and Empire Loyalism never was, primarily about the racial issue in any narrow sense, which is to say that we do not publish dodgy science intending to establish questions of superiority."

But then he descends into paranoia.

"The mass migration of the post-War years was, however, entirely different in character to that natural migration of traders and seafarers. It was artificially engineered to enable the imposition of the socialist state upon us. The Welfare State, with the NHS at its heart, is calculated to drive people into dependence upon the State and to train people to servility in dealing with its employees. It is, however, completely unsustainable. It is a pyramid, or Ponzi scheme, meaning that those at one end take out money, and receive services paid for by money, paid in at the other end with no growth or investment of any kind at any stage of the proceedings - it is a con, a fraud, a trick just like Bernie Madoff's, and he got 150 years behind bars for it."

It's true that West Indians were recruited by the National Health Service, and London Transport,
following the British Nationality Act of 1948, but Clement Attlee did not depend on immigrant votes. He was elected with an overwhelming majority by returned servicemen who were fed up with Winston Churchill.

Furthermore, t
he National Health Service is this country's finest achievement. It provides medical care for everyone regardless of income, as opposed to private schemes that are too expensive for most people. Where would we be without it during the present crisis?

And Leon Trotsky can't be responsible for mass migration to the UK in the Fifties because he was killed by Ramon Mercador's well-aimed ice axe in Mexico City in 1940.


AK Chesterton, the founder of 'Candour', was born in 1896 at the peak of the British Empire, but he was not as reactionary as some of his followers. As editor of the BUF newspaper 'The Blackshirt' he campaigned for better wages and conditions for the workers. He wrote in 'Portrait of a Leader':

"The sons will hand down to their sons only the results of their own labour; death duties will claim the rest for the nation. Neither will the inheritance of wealth continue to create an exclusive, privileged class, because for the able child there will be free educational facilities through every stage of school, college, university, and even beyond, in order that the nation may be served by the best brains and the best technicians it can produce. Moreover, there will be no wealth without service, and therefore no idle rich."

He left the British Union of Fascists before the war but he still believed in fair play.. He stated in 1970:

"I have not changed any strong political opinion about what the British destiny should be." 

Was Mosley Anti-Semitic?

The short answer is no. In his book 'Mosley Right or Wrong' he answers the question, Do you condemn anti-Semitism?

"Yes, certainly. It is a stupidity as well as an evil. How ridiculous to see a man blathering away about the Jews until he is blue in the face, without any idea in his empty head how to deal with the problem of international finance. He tries to substitute a mean and foolish persecution for a decisive policy. We bring the evil practices of international finance to an end without any persecution of anyone."

Mosley was not anti-Semitic but some of his followers were. In a 1939 pamphlet entitled 'Britain and Jewry', Mick Clarke examined every aspect of Jewish power and influence. He listed the individuals and companies in control of international finance, but he stuck to the facts and never mentioned 'The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion' or any such conspiratorial nonsense. He concluded:

"There is only one way to break Jewish power and that is to dissolve the international system which gives such advantages to a dispersed race. As long as Jews throughout the world can consolidate their power over finance and publicity and use it where they will, no nation is safe. It is only by National Socialism that the power of Jewry is broken, whether that power be exercised through International Finance or through International Communism. If each nation puts its own house in order then the Jewish minority in that nation cannot long withstand the will of the people as a whole; but as long as the pluto-democratic nations remain dependent upon international trading they are at the mercy of International Finance with its power of transferring gold from market to market at will."

Those words were written over eighty years ago, before the Second World War and Adolf Hitler's attempt to wipe out the European Jews. Mick Clarke identified a problem and proposed an answer but he never advocated violence or persecution. His pamphlet would probably be illegal today but it's still of interest to students of history.

Brexit But No Migrant Exit - Michael Walsh
https://europeansworldwide.wordpress.com 


In the run up to the Brexit deadline many Britons were under the illusion that the migrant invasion of the United Kingdom was consequence of EU membership. It was thought that after Brexit Britain would be White again. Dream on:

Following the defeat of the German Reich in 1945, Westminster used 'prize of war' plundered German ocean liners like the Monte Rosa, renamed Empire Windrush, to transport cheap labour coloureds to Britain long before the European Union was formed. The notorious Notting Hill Riots (London), in which West Indians were pitted against ethnic Britons occurred in 1958. The EU as it is now known was formed in 1992.

The number of people moving to Britain from outside the European Union is now at its highest level on record. Some 379,000 people came to the UK from non-EU countries, according to the latest Office for National Statistics estimates for the year to September 2019.

At the same time there has been a year-on-year rise in estimated non-EU net migration of 26,000 to 250,000, which is the highest level since 2004.

While arrivals from the EU have fallen since the Brexit vote in June 2016, the number of people coming to Britain from outside the bloc has dramatically increased. The net migration figures, which looked at people coming to the UK with the intention to stay for 12 months or more, were published by the ONS this morning.

The data showed net migration from non-EU countries hit 250,000, the highest level since 2004 and up from 224,000 in September 2018. Meanwhile EU net migration stood at 64,000, above the 57,000 recorded a year earlier.

Shockingly, these figure are classed as experimental estimates after the ONS admitted it had been underestimating some EU net migration data since 2016.

The system will allocate extra points to applicants who intend to work in an area where there is labour shortages, meaning the Government could (will) act to bring in low-skilled workers from outside the European Union. EU net migration has fallen while non-EU net migration has gradually increased since 2013 and is now at the highest level since 2004.

Alp Mehmet, chairman of Migration Watch UK, said: "Non-EU net migration at its highest in 15 years and EU net migration higher than the previous year." Meanwhile, the government's recent actions and policy proposals will likely lead to immigration going up further.

The millions who want the inflow reduced, and who voted Conservative a couple of months ago, will be rightly concerned that Boris Johnson's government is not serious about tackling these absurd levels of immigration.'

The Government plans to liberalize work visas for non-EU citizens which will increase the number of non-EU workers, but exactly how much is hard to say.

Capital Punishment


I have been opposed to the death penalty since Ruth Ellis was hanged in 1955. I was only ten-years-old when she was executed and I was upset by the sheer brutality of it all. Sixty-five years later I would still pardon Ruth Ellis, who shot her brutal lover, but terrorists of all persuasions who think they are entitled to maim and kill are a different proposition. 

My instinct is to obey the sixth Commandment: "Though shall not kill", but I can understand the call for justice and retribution. People who plant bombs that kill indiscriminately do not deserve mercy, and nor do those who kill politicians because they don't agree with them. If I shot every politician that I disagreed with there would not be many left.

If there was no doubt about the prisoner's guilt, and if he, or she, showed no remorse, then I would support capital punishment, but if there was some doubt, or a genuine display of remorse, I would opt for life imprisonment. 

Many of the fanatics found guilty of mass murder would be happy to die for their twisted beliefs. I think we should oblige them.

Mosley Was Right - Christian National Socialist posting on Stormfront.


Europe’ is more than an economic region from which bloated bureaucrats and political nonentities draw salaries and perks. Before the conniving Count Kalergi and his banker friends, and before cabals such as the Bilderberg Group, there was ‘Europe’ as a living, dynamic organism, whose culture, faith, and heroes have been smothered in a quagmire of American junk culture, the debt of bankers, and the opportunity for the sweepings of the world to call themselves ‘Europeans’. ‘Europe’ was hijacked and besmirched by outer enemies and inner traitors. Paradoxically, the Europeans with the soundest instincts are among those who reject and oppose the entity that is today called ‘Europe’, as the recent Brexit poll indicated. However, such has been the disgust at the European project as manifested by secular-humanists, Masons, bankers, bureaucrats and U.S. geopolitical strategists, that the noble Idea of Europe-a-Nation, unfolding over the course of centuries, has been replaced by those who should be promoting it most avidly with the petty-statism that was inaugurated by the French Revolution and subsequent liberal forces of disintegration. Europe has been turned into a travesty of herself, and spurned by those who should be her champions because they are not seeing beyond several hundred years of treachery, corruption and culture-sickness.

The book on the History of Candour by Hugh McNeile and Rob Black of The A.K. Chesterton Trust is a great read, and it reveals that Mosley and Chesterton became friends again after the Brothers' War of 1939-1945.

It is true that Mosley was not anti-Semitic (should be referred to as anti-Jewish opinion really though, as the Arabs are also Semitic and are having a tough time in occupied Palestine). OM always said:

"We do not attack Jews for what they are born. We defend our Movement from Jewish attacks."

- Jews who were members of the New Party: Ted 'Kid' Lewis
- Jews who were members of the BUF: Albert Lynden (aka Lewinska), Lew Levisohn, William Leaper, Harold Soref, Edna Grundy (nee Maurice)
- Jews who were members of UM: (ditto) Edna Grundy (nee Maurice)

Arnold Leese was undoubtedly anti-Jewish, and he wrote in the IFL manifesto "Mightier Yet! The Policy of the Imperial Fascist League" (1935) that Jews who left their new home in Madagascar after deportation by an IFL Government would face the "death penalty". He even called Mosley a "kosher fascist".

Several points here. Mosley and Chesterton did not renew friendships after the war. In 1947, Chesterton attacked Mosley in issue 85 of 'London Tidings' accusing him of internationalism with his new European ideas. He accused Mosley of self-love and many other failings.
Published by the National Socialist League in 1937, Chesterton penned a scathing personal attack on Mosley, the like of which Mosley would never forgive. It was titled 'Why I Left Mosley'.
The term Semitic does not refer to race but a family of languages. According to the Anthropology Department of the British Museum, the Arabs are largely Caucasian of the sub-group Mediterranean Race Proper. Ashkenazi Jews are descended from the Khazars.
The correct quote from Mosley on anti-Semitism should be, "We do not attack Jews on what they were born but solely on what they do".
Springfields is obviously the self-appointed "researcher" Robert Best, several points in his post being familiar to those who have received his disjointed and pointless emails in the past. Have the moral courage to use your own name in future.
