A ‘Second Referendum’ on EU Membership?
The European Union Referendum Act 2015 is an Act of Parliament that made provision for a non-binding referendum to be held in the UK on whether Britain should remain a member of the European Union or leave. The bill was introduced to the House of Commons by Philip Hammond, Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs on 28 May 2015 and the Act was subsequently passed by 544 votes to 53 on 9 June…
A White National Health Service
Whenever immigration into the UK is discussed on radio or television or within the media generally, they trot out the old chestnut that the National Health Service (NHS) relies on doctors, nurses and other health workers from overseas and that without them ‘the NHS would collapse’. The inference being that without immigration we would have no functioning national health service. Of course it is true that a large proportion of the staff in our hospitals and…
Richard Edmonds – 2017 Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize Nominee
Nominated for a third time for the Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize is the 2015 winner and veteran nationalist campaigner Richard Edmonds. At the ripe old age of seventy-four, Richard still exhibits great passion and energy. His speaking style is very animated, employing vivid facial expressions and hand gesticulations in order to emphasise his message. Richard also uses repetition in order to emphasise key points and in order to slow the pace of his delivery and…
Alex Davies – 2017 Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize Nominee
Last year’s winner of the Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize has been nominated once again for a very passionate speech delivered at the South West Forum. Last year Alex was unique amongst current nationalist speakers in that he has the ability to deliver long coherent speeches with little or no reference to notes, and while other young speakers have caught up with him in this respect, he remains the man to beat, combining fluent delivery, with dramatic…
Adam T. C. Wallace – 2017 Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize Nominee
Adam Wallace is a young man who appeared on the nationalist scene this year having risen to prominence in a less orthodox manner than most, having made a name for himself as an author on the West Coast Reactionaries webzine and as a vlogger, with his own YouTube channel, The Plebeion Podcast. This is only Adams second speech in front of a live audience, but the experience he has gained producing his podcasts is readily apparent, in that he is confident…
Jez Turner – 2017 Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize Nominee
This is the third time that Jez has been nominated for the Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize and he is one of the best known speakers in British nationalism today, but this was not always so. Jez however took the initiative to become the main organiser and host speaker for the London Forum and this has paid dividends. His present level of public speaking ability is the product of the great amount of regular practice gained…
Mark Collett – 2017 Jonathan Bowden Oratory Prize Nominee
Setting the bar high in terms of speaking ability among nominees this year, Mark Collett is a highly competent and effective speaker, who benefits from much practice gained through the prominent role he played in the BNP in years past. In addition, Mark has gained further experience of public speaking more recently, appearing as a regular guest on the David Duke Show and producing a series of podcasts and now videocasts on his own YouTube…
Legion MAC Events – A Rebuttal
ITV Evening News last night featured a report incorporating video footage filmed secretly during the most recent Legion MAC Winter Camp. The aim of the ITV report was to level the disingenuous allegation that National Action has not complied with the terms of that organisation’s Home Office proscription last year. Furthermore, the report implied that other nationalist organisations, including Legion MAC, are in effect National Action operating under another name. I cannot speak for National…
