Standing for British Freedom

As we reported last week, our long-time friend and contributor Paul Weston has been elected the chairman of the British Freedom Party. For those millions of Britons who object to mass immigration and oppose the Islamization of their country, British Freedom offers a real alternative to the three major political parties.

Mr. Weston has just posted a Chairman’s Update at the British Freedom website:

Hello all, many thanks for allowing me this platform to set out my views on the political situation in Britain.

First, there have been many rumours circulating on the net that there has been a hostile takeover of British Freedom. This is not the case at all. I have had a great deal of discussion with members of the executive committee and we decided the best way forward for British Freedom was to start with a clean slate.

Former members of the Executive Council were in full agreement that British Freedom was being held back because of its previous links with discredited nationalist parties. As many of you are aware, there was a recent survey suggesting that a political party based on the policies of British Freedom would be supported by a large percentage of the population, but many are held back because of their history, no matter that the committee members had broken those links.

It is a shame that this is the case. The former committee members are all good people driven by passion and bravery in the defence of their country which is being slowly destroyed before our very eyes.

But we must face up to the political reality of the situation, which is exactly what has now been done. British Freedom can longer be attacked by the leftist media via character assassination, which has strengthened the party considerably.

Over the coming weeks I will be writing articles and making video blogs which will show the danger Britain – and particularly England – is in. We are living in a political and moral world turned upside down. What was once good is now bad and what was once bad is now good.

I genuinely believe that Britain is not in the terrible state it is in because of well intentioned incompetence, but because a leftist attempt, decades in the making, has been carried out in order to subvert and destroy our people and our country.

After WWII the Soviet Union militarily took over all the European countries within its geographical sphere. This is an unarguable fact, but rarely discussed was the Communist International’s desire to subvert the rest of the world in order to prepare for a global Communist takeover.

This is why much of our destruction can be linked directly to Communist ideology. The Marxists were anti-family, anti-religion, anti-capitalism and pro- Big State. We see the result of this all around us today, and anyone who thinks this is some right-wing fantasy should ask themselves why Marxist teachers in Communist countries produced the best educated children in Europe, whilst their counterparts in Britain produced children barely literate, numerate or employable.

Most of our Trades Union leaders were Communists and the result of their constant strikes has been the destruction of much of our industry. If you wish to subvert a capitalist country, first you destroy their means of industrial economic survival – and if that is then followed by a Service Industry economy, then it makes sense to ensure the new white collared paper pushers are unable to read and write.

I will not go into any more detail here, but will shortly post an article entitled “How to Destroy a Country” which in essence is a blueprint of pretty much every piece of government legislation over the last fifty years.

I imagine many of you are familiar with the Norwegian blogger Fjordman, who I believe is the single most important writer today with regard to the deliberate subversion and destruction of the West. I have his permission to publish his articles on the British Freedom site, and will choose a number of them written over the last few years.

They are not new of course, but they are far too important to languish in an archive somewhere, and their age makes them no less relevant today than when they were first written, They are long, but are well worth making the effort to finish. If everyone was aware of Fjordman’s thoughts then most European governments would be thrown out tomorrow…

We will be tweaking the policies section on the site, which will include a 25 point statement of basic principles, which I attach below. I hope they resonate with you. It is an easy read, one page document and whilst I do not want to make it any longer, I welcome feedback on items you may wish to remove or add.

I will sign off now, but just wish to thank all the members of British Freedom who have supported the party to date, and promise that with their continued energy and support we can combine to make British Freedom a household name and a genuine electoral alternative to the three main parties by 2015.

I have taken the liberty of re-ordering the chairman’s twenty-five party principles and grouping them by topic:
