By Max Musson:
As most of us will have anticipated, last night’s local elections have seen the annihilation of genuine nationalist candidates as media promoted UKIP sweep up the bulk of our previous supporters, and many more in addition that they will have won from the other parties.
I describe UKIP as media promoted, because despite the last couple of weeks in which the knives have been out for Nigel Farage in an attempt to limit somewhat their electoral success, UKIP and Nigel Farage in particular have had a very easy ride compared to the unremittingly vitriolic hail of smears, abuse and denigration that has always been directed at the BNP. One only has to compare the number of opportunities that Farage and other UKIP representatives have had to appear on BBC’s flagship politics programme ‘Question Time’ to see that stark difference displayed.
Given the superficial similarity in the eyes of the public between the policies of UKIP and those of say the BNP, what then is the reason for the obvious disparity in their electoral performances.
Firstly, UKIP has the more favourable media coverage that I have already referred to.
So, why has that media coverage been so favourable?
The answer lies in the underlying ideology that forms the basis for their respective party policies, for while the policies are superficially similar, the underlying ideologies are not.
For a genuine nationalist party, their approach to matters of nationality and immigration are racially and ethnically based, whereas UKIP is a purely populist reactionary party that has no fundamental ideology. Therefore, while our racial enemies know that in dealing with the a genuine White nationalist party the imperative of securing our racial survival will always present a threat to them, they know that they can ‘do business’ with UKIP and that UKIP can be managed in such a way that popular political sentiments unfavourable to minorities can be kept in check.
UKIP is a populist reactionary party, the effect of whose policies will be superficial and will not affect the underlying power brokers within our political system, and therefore, within limits, they have been given a relatively easy ride for an allegedly anti-immigration, anti-EU party that trades on patriotism.
The favourable treatment by the media has therefore enabled UKIP to get their message across and more importantly, it has signalled to the public that they are permitted to be supporters of UKIP – they have a ‘permission slip’ to be patriotic and nationalist – just as long as they do it within the confines condoned by UKIP.
Most importantly, the favourable media treatment has created in the minds of many of the public the belief that UKIP can win elections under first past the post and may actually be allowed to win power, thereby raising the prospect that we might get out of the EU and that immigration might be ‘brought under control’, whatever that means.
As I have stated in the past, one of the greatest constraints upon genuine nationalist parties electorally, is that the public did not believe those parties can win, and so they vote tactically for the least worst of the establishment parties, the one they think will do the least damage to our nation when elected. Now with UKIP, the public are starting to believe they can vote for the policies they want, with the expectation that UKIP might actually be able to win and implement them.
Obviously, the easy ride that UKIP have experienced in the media, combined with their electoral successes has also signalled to a number of wealthy individuals that they can sponsor UKIP without attracting opprobrium and the party has consequently benefited from this inflow of money, a significant proportion of it coming recently from Jewish sources.
So, should we be pleased by the rise of UKIP and the substantial gains they have made in these recent elections, and on balance I think we should. The rise of UKIP is beginning to erode the tendency of the public to always and only ever vote for one of the establishment parties. In that sense it is to some extent radicalising the public and making them feel comfortable with the idea of voting for a political party that is regarded as ‘a bit naughty’ by the authorities. It is edging them slightly in our direction.
We should be pleased, but we should not fall into the trap of thinking that UKIP will be the saviours of our nation. They cannot be our saviours because they are not equipped for that purpose.
What do I mean by that?
As I have demonstrated above, the success that UKIP have enjoyed has been either directly or indirectly the result of their promotion in the media, and the media therefore have the ability to either maintain or turn off that support, depending upon how UKIP conduct themselves.
As long as UKIP toe the line and do not rock the boat as far as the political establishment are concerned and most importantly continue to formulate their policy of simply ‘controlling’ immigration around popular public sentiment rather than any ideological principle that might drive them to stop non-White immigration altogether and put it into reverse, then UKIP can look forward to continued favourable treatment, but if not, then they will experience the hail of unremittingly vitriol, smears and denigration that has traditionally been dished out to nationalist parties.
UKIP currently has a growing membership, who donate relatively small amounts by way of membership subscriptions and therefore UKIP have always relied upon a small number of wealthy donors for the bulk of their funding. Such wealthy donors can easily be targeted by a hostile media and deterred from donating to political causes that bring opprobrium upon them and it is therefore easy to see how unstable UKIP’s position is. This especially so, when one considers the how their public support at the polls would crumble in the face of a tidal wave of hostile media coverage.
Even if UKIP are allowed political success and form a government, the price they will be made to pay for this will be significant ethnic minority participation in the party at a high level and the accommodation of policies beneficial to the wealthy donors who provide the bulk of their funding.
There is a well known saying, that ‘he who pays the piper calls the tune’, and therefore with any political party that is funded by a small number of wealthy individuals, those individuals will exercise disproportionate influence over party policy and the party will introduce policies that pander to the needs of the wealthy few at the expense of the many.
The only way to ensure that a political party always protects and promotes the interests of the nation as a whole, is to ensure that the party is at all times funded by donations from the whole of its membership, rich and poor alike.
For a political movement to break the power of the media and enjoy political power on it’s own terms with the ability to rule without constraint, it must first acquire the Six Prerequisites, without which ‘power’ is merely an illusion exercised at the pleasure of sinister vested interest groups.
For now, let us enjoy and exploit the political space that UKIP have opened up for us, let us enjoy watching the many establishment party pundits squirming at their success, and let us continue working towards the day when we shall have the Six Prerequisites and true political power will be within our grasp.

UKIP are a testament to the power of the media! The BNP think, for some reason, UKIP have been designed to stop them. I don’t know — I reckon the establishment sees UKIP as a good way of buying time and making sure our people are given the illusion of control. In ten years’ time, I wouldn’t be surprised if they push out some ”extremist” who wants to stop all immigration and ”gets caught” saying he dislikes fuzzies wuzzies on camera. Who knows? As long as the establishment can control the game they won’t care who is in power — for many parts of the establishment, the end goal is the destruction of our race.
The end justifies the means, right?
Democracy is a big joke. Unless you have enough resources to TAKE a victory from the establishment parties (such as UKIP) there is no point in even entering the game. These are the facts: only 5% of people think for themselves, the rest will do what they are told. The obvious answers are in that very basic analysis! Are nationalists smart enough, determined enough and hard-working enough to do get it done? I wonder….

Being a Nationalist, but also a new member/voter for UKIP, after reading the first few paragraphs I thought this article was going to be an attack on my decision to do this. Having read it all, I am glad that Max agrees that we should be pleased (I would not use the word `joy’) at the political upset these results have caused for the LibLabCon party and their media lackeys.
I have decided to back the party that has the most chance of success in removing this traitorous cabal from power in the shortest time and, admittedly in doing so, chose the best of a bad bunch. I have often said I would vote the Raving Loony Party into power rather than allow the big three to inflict any more pain and suffering on us – how could they do worse? UKIP are far from perfect but which political party is? It is a start in the right direction.
Nick Farage was spot on this morning when claiming they will enjoy much more success in the EU elections (and possibly the GE) as very many people will feel compelled to vote for their local councillor of long standing out of loyalty, in the local elections. I, like many others, was torn by split loyalties. The 3 in our household voted again for our BNP man who, unfortunately (I know it’s odd to say that), was beaten by the UKIP representative. As I told the BNP canvasser at the door, I will do that but cannot vote BNP in EU/General elections as I cannot bring myself to support Nick Griffin after what he has done.
(I now strongly suspect he `has been got at’ in overseeing the collapse of the BNP and ridding it of good people simply because they were a threat to his control over it – his little family `fiefdom’ as I would class it. He manages to keep it going, bumping along on the bottom – just enough to keep the BNP politically impotent which suits the status quo. He has suffered (apparent) Establishment hatred yet has escaped any real legal attention – apart from bankruptcy. Very strange that. If he was the Nationalist he claims to be, he would have stood aside long ago for the sake of his country and people.)
My other motive in this is that, for the sake of £5 senior citizen UKIP membership fee and in following the motives of Western Spring philosophy, there is greater possibility of bringing subtle change within an organisation by being part of it rather than being outside of it and tackling it head-on – that is unless and until, my previous BNP membership comes to light. No doubt I will find out if they have the leaked BNP membership list for vetting. Not that I have the time (or motivation, to be honest) to do much in the way of activism – just daily media online comment posting.
Well, that is my take on things and hope to see other’s views here on the rise of UKIP.

Btw, Is the website clock 1 hour behind? My comment was posted at 4.01 pm, not 3.01 pm. – unless that was start time and it took me just an hour to write it.

Correction to my earlier post. I am pleased to learn that our local BNP councillor HAS been elected – with a majority over the Conservative of just 6! Two of us witnessed the local councils’ web page earlier which showed UKIP had got in on our ward so some mix-up there. They ended up 4th out of four.

The BNP had one of their councillors re elected in Pendle, Lancashire: a stunning victory, as the establishment and political enemies had said that come the elections, Britain would be ‘BNP free’.
A small glimmer off hope for our people.

Yes, a remarkable performance under the circumstances. The candidate should be feted as a hero!

It is good that some people are still voting for the BNP! Despite the bashings they have got from the media, there are still people out there who are independent enough in thought to see them for what they are: the best of a bad bunch! In essence, all ”democratic” parties are a dead end because democracy is the problem!
All of us who go on this site know why democracy is a farce, so I won’t bother to explain why I see the whole concept of people shaping their national’s politics as a joke. I will say this: there probably isn’t a perfect system out there. Working with our current racial context, however, we have to be lucid and accept that we really need something that is ”undemocratic” — decisions need top be made that go against the general will of the masses. For their own good — the masses, brainwashed by the establishment, can’t be trusted to work in their own long-term interests…..

Ukip won more seats in Portsmouth than any other party, and the Lib Dems lost the most. Both Mike Hancock[1] and his wife are out as Councillors and the city is in no overall control.
.
Stuart Potter, chairman of Ukip in Portsmouth, said of the Tories proposed coalition of them and UKIP: ‘There is absolutely no chance of a coalition happening, we would be selling ourselves out for our beliefs. It would go against the party views as well. The rest of the parties are power obsessed. We are not about getting hold of power or control, we are about working for the people.”[2]

Excellent analysis Max.I would add a word here about the role which the BNP has played in UKIP’s success.
Many of us will remember that night 5 years ago when the BNP won over 6% of the popular vote, and two EU seats, despite a media campaign of unprecedented ferocity against the Party. That success was the culmination of years of hard work and sacrifice and steadily accumulating victories – there was no reason to suppose that we could not go on to greater things and to expect that the success now enjoyed by UKIP might not have belonged instead to the BNP.
It didn’t happen, but I believe that all that hard work and sacrifice was not in vain, that although the BNP is sadly reduced to the burnt out fag end of a Party, its activists and its successes (however temporary) opened the eyes of the public to the possibility of something better than the rotten old parties. When the BNP imploded it left that possibility lying about for someone else to pick up and use. Nor should it be forgotten that that 6.26% BNP vote in 2009 has given UKIP a very hefty leg up in 2015.

Maybe this is a good thing, it depends where it leads, I voted for them as they seemed the most popular party for the protest vote.
I hope it leads to people being more accepting of a party or a movement outside of the mainstream, especially on the right.
I don’t think UKIP in themselves are the answer to anything, just a stepping stone but we’ll see what they do with their success or if it goes as quickly as it came.
I’m a bit depressed about the Labour support, obviously those voters haven’t suffered enough!

An old school friend who claims to be non-political recently attended a UkIP meeting at which Mr.Farage was guest speaker. He told us that he was puzzled to find that the front two rows were reserved and at first assumed that this must have been on account of a large number of journalists attending. When the rows finally came to be filled he was appalled to see that they were packed solid with ‘token’ coloured folk. All so that Mr Farage can pose before our racial enemy as ‘non-racist’.
Unfortunately, some nationalists are inclined to argue that in order to beat the enemy we have to ‘box clever’ and lie to the British public. Yet it is precisely this kind of temporizing on the part of the BNP leadership which has led to the decline in membership. Fortunately there are signs that the right lessons have been learnt on this issue.
No doubt most ‘Western Spring’ readers will be as angry as myself at the enforced multi-racial propaganda promoted in advertising these days. However, by neglecting the principle of racial kinship and loyalty those who would supinely underscore Mr. Farage’s notionally “clever” tactics are promoting race-mixing to an equal extent.
Shaun
- Edit
I don’t know much about Farrage, but if he is playing the game — good luck to him. If he is a genuine sell-out, well, at least he is getting some of the sheeple used to accepting dissident ideas…. I haven’t researched, so I don’t know!

Great analysis Max. This paragraph sums it up for me:
.
“The favourable treatment by the media has therefore enabled UKIP to get their message across and more importantly, it has signalled to the public that they are permitted to be supporters of UKIP – they have a ‘permission slip’ to be patriotic and nationalist – just as long as they do it within the confines condoned by UKIP.”
.
There is a danger in this, and we must be wary. It may be that the sanctioning of UKIP by the UK State is intended to herein redefine and reprogramme the limits of patriotism. A lot of people with so-called ‘extreme’ Nationalist beliefs will have voted UKIP, and in enjoying UKIP’s success may continue to vote UKIP. Over time their ‘extreme’ beliefs will have been worn down, smoothed out and redefined.
UKIP is a sorely-needed fox among the hens, but let us never forget 3 things:
1) The Tories were once as conservative as UKIP.
2) UKIP’s worldview is based on the wants and needs of the economy, primarily.
3) They are ‘Friends of Israel’.
By all means let’s support them, but with extreme diligence and stubbornness in our beliefs.

UKIP didn’t do as well as many people have said according to this blog (admittedly a left-wing one so his bias may be showing): https://anotherangryvoice.blogspot.co.uk and this one (not left-wing inclined): https://www.eureferendum.com
The REAL electoral problem all parties in this country have is the pathetic apathy of the British people. It is still the case that in local and EU elections the ‘none of the above’ party wins by a landslide.

Max, obviously this UKIP thing is more or less unprecedented and deserves serious consideration. However what I have seen no where is an acknowledgment of the BNP’s role in UKIP’s success. The fact is the very existence of the BNP has allowed UKIP to avoid being targeted effectively by the establishments propaganda assets, they are obliged to go after the farthest far right, the BNP, thus UKIP have benefited from being shielded by the BNP. This is, I would suggest, the greatest achievement of the BNP of all time. I’m a long time critic of Griffin, but (I guess by accident) they have actually achieved something significant.
Obviously UKIP is extremely dubious, I mean we are talking about a group that regards M Le Penn’s FN as beyond the pale. But it might be of note to WS that operating inside the BNP’s meat shield is a viable and useful tactic.
Max Musson
- Edit
That is indeed a valid point.
Shaun
- Edit
Oh gosh yes! UKIP are more to the left than the BNP, so they have been shielded from too much criticism from the Usual Suspects…. Also, much of their rhetoric has been centred on the EU so that gives the sheep a reputational shield — they can say they are voting for UKIP for more than one reason…..
This should be lesson for ALL nationalists movements. Keep to your core ideology, but it also spread your ideology across many different areas —- that way the sheep haven’t got to admit why they are voting for you. Another thing is party names — Danish Freedom Party is good, British nationalist Party sounds like a neo-Nazi’s wet dream.
Steven
- Edit
Any party with the term ‘national’ in it is going to have a problem I feel. Even though we know it be a perfectly respectable ideology, the PC controlled media will have a field day with it because they insinuate ‘nationalist equals nazi’. It’s a shame we can’t use that word in a party’s title because of this reason as the word sums-up our philosophy very cogently.
Steven
- Edit
Yes, Danish Freedom Party is a good one so is Golden Dawn as that has a distinct uplifting and optimistic feel to it but no British party could use that now as even a moderate nationalist party would be immediately compared to the Greek party by the PC media.

Good commentary Max on UKIP’s success.
As you say, they have received very favourable media treatment overall. In other words they are being allowed to succeed by TPTB (The Powers That Be, for newbies).
.
So, the question is, why?
.
I’d say it’s a reaction to diffuse and mollify the resentment that has built up in the British public re immigration (despite decades of propaganda and psychological warfare).
.
But, what matters is the practical outcome, and I suspect we will get a lot of media “sound and fury”, noises of possible change, but little to no impact in reality. The immigration takeover through birthrates and illegals, and so on, will roll on relentlessly on autopilot, as designed.
.
If the TPTB promote something so prominently, like UKIP, it means that somehow, someway, it will end up supporting the status quo.
.
But, as you have said Max in so many words, it’s still a reactive move, by the tribe, in our favour.
R.E.
- Edit
Max has done us a great service with this fine and timely analysis of UKIP’s success.
I will only emphasize: What is UKIP’s stated aim and goal in all this politicking ?
Farage is clear: He wants a simple In-Out referendum on Britain’s continued membership of the European Union. Such a referendum, if conceded by the current establishment, would almost certainly follow the same pattern as the earlier 1974 referendum:
the political, media, financial establishments would combine together in a chorus to intimidate the population with dire threats of national and personal bankruptcy, loss of business, loss of jobs, homes, etc. etc.; and with the identical result as in 1974: the majority vote for the status quo, Britain’s continued membership; and at that point Mr. Farage and his UKIP would depart the scene.
We racial nationalists have the task of maintaining an active and organised presence in Britain, ready to move in when the UKIP bubble bursts, in the meantime to quote the author of the above article, “now , let us enjoy and exploit the political space that UKIP have opened up for us, let us enjoy watching the many establishment party pundits squirming at their success, and let us continue working towards the day when we shall have the Six Prerequisites and true political power will be within our grasp.”

It will be interesting to see what happens in Newark. If UKIP can break through and win that election then they will have achieved something considerable.
However 43% of the electorate in that constituency in 2010 voted for Labour or the LDs. Will those people now “hold their nose” and vote Tory to keep UKIP out? If that happens then obviously the “demonisation” of UKIP will be working and you will be looking at a British version of the Le Penn effect which saw three quarters of the French electorate vote against the FN in 2002.
In which case then surely it is absolutely clear that UKIP style “moderation” is a dead end. If the system can take UKIP out in Newark with UKIP at the point they are now and operating on about 10% power then you can forget any real radicalism getting anywhere via the conventional ballot box.

I don’t think anybody with half a brain thinks UKIP are going to sort everything out. NOOOO, they are good for one thing: making the words ”mainstream parties” into a dirty word. According to Le Bon (The Crowd), this is the first stage of revolution. Smashing the ideas of the past. Be patient! Let the public watch UKIP get smashed and then watch the sensible part of our people look towards the nationalists for radical alternatives….
As for campaigning, well … only a complete, systematic approach governed by an sagacious elite and a determined, disciplined activist base will succeed. Our enemies aren’t invincible — they have already overplayed their hand with UKIP. They had no choice. After all, us dumb Goys invented the Internet — they knew what would happen if UKIP weren’t promoted.
