‘STATE’
INTERFERENCE.
It has long been felt that some people
who join nationalist parties have joined on behalf of organisations hostile to
the concept of a national party. It is
entirely possible that some join primarily to pass information, but others may
be there to stir up trouble, or steer the efforts of members into unproductive
directions. Of course, there are also
people who are just naturally awkward, or stupid. It is only on rare occasions that one can be absolutely certain
that a person is from the ‘other side’.
One such occasion was that concerning Ray Hill. Ray Hill, who was Jewish, and later
declared himself as such, was working for “Searchlight”, a Jewish magazine that
has ‘State’ backing. Ray Hill pushed
for the name change, New National Front to British National Party. This change exacerbated the split between
the New National Front and the other fragments of the original National Front
and thus widened the split.
However, it is not possible to map out
with certainty who exactly is ‘State’ and who are just misguided or
stupid. What can be discerned with a
fair degree of confidence is, that the nationalist movement has been gently
guided into groups that have been very ineffective. In the early eighties we have seen inept leadership of the
National Front leading to a major split into three separate groups, one of
which eventually died, one that became the BNP, and a smaller group, part of
which became the current National Front. The BNP and the current NF were the
only groups to survive the split. The
most important fact to register concerning this split was that the majority of
supporters of the original National Front ceased to belong to either of the
above parties. There was also an
enormous loss of funds, in particular, the NF had a substantial freehold
property, Excaliber House, that was used as a National HQ and this was lost.
The original National Front was
chaired by John Tyndall with Martin Webster as main organiser. The BNP was chaired by John Tyndall, (JT),
until 1999 and since then by Nick Griffin, (NG). The only time during this long period that nationalism appeared
to be growing and likely to gain power in Parliament was during the time Martin
Webster was the active organiser.
Bearing in mind the above preamble,
John Tyndall was, from the point of view of ‘State’, the ideal leader. He was just good enough to hold together a
small number of people but had no real idea of running an organisation. My personal view is that he was a sincere man
with many virtues but with blindspots that made him unsuitable as a
leader. The general opinion of Nick
Griffin is that he is not a nationalist at all and he is in the ‘game’ just for
the money. From ‘State’s’ point of
view he is a very worthwhile successor to John Tyndall.
One of the ways that JT and NG have
prevented the growth of a National Party is/was their ability to weed out and
discourage, or in NG’s case actively expel, persons of ability and
education. NG appears also to be sucking
as much money out of the branches as possible and so preventing the development
of strong local branches. From
‘State’s’ point of view, having a blundering unsuccessful nationalist party was
ideal, as it effectively prevents the spontaneous formation of a properly
organised national party.
It is unrealistic to expect that NG
will stand down from the BNP and it would be very difficult to remove him, as
the BNP’s Constitution is that of a dictatorship. It would seem, therefore, that there are only two possible courses
of action. One is to transfer all
effort to the current National Front.
This Party is very small but does have a reasonable Constitution and
reasonable current officers. It does,
however, suffer from historical ‘baggage’.
The other course of action is to start afresh.
Whichever course is taken, it seems
essential to find a real leader! It is
very difficult to imagine starting a party with uneducated personnel and then
‘upgrading’. Where to find a leader?
There
are a number of possibilities, one of which is the retired personnel of the
Armed Forces. Some of the top military
have, at long last, realised that there is far more to defending the Country
than being physically brave. (That
helps, of course!) Other possibilities
are industry and the universities.
Finding a genuine leader must be our
priority?
