British fascism is the form of fascism which is promoted by some political parties and movements in the United Kingdom.[1] It is based on British ultranationalism and imperialism and had aspects of Italian fascism and Nazism both before and after World War II.[2]
Historical examples of fascist organisations in Britain include the British Fascists (1923–1934), the British National Fascists (1924–1928), the Imperial Fascist League (1929–1939), the British Union of Fascists (1932–1940), the British League of Ex-Servicemen and Women (1937–1948), the National Socialist League (1937–1939), The Link (1937-1940), the British People's Party (1939–1954) and the Union Movement (1948–1978). More recent examples of British fascist groups include the British Movement (1968–1983), the National Front (1967–present), the British National Party (1982–present), Britain First (2011–present),[3][4] National Action (2013–2017), and the Sonnenkrieg Division (2015–2020).[5] Parties inspired by British fascist movements include the New Zealand National Front (1968–2019) and the Australian Protectionist Party (2007–present).
