However, some things never change - even though we all thought everyone voted in the last election for 'change - didn't they - well sometimes you don't always get what you want do you?

THE 1930s: THE MOSLEY CREW — “THE ORIGINAL FAMILY”

The British Union of Fascists (BUF) They strutted in black shirts, marched in formation, and tried to bring continental swagger to British streets. Mosley was the Don — charismatic, theatrical, and convinced he was destined for power. But the public didn’t buy the act, and when the war came, the state shut the whole operation down. The family scattered.

THE 1960s–70s: THE NATIONAL FRONT — “THE STREET ENFORCERS”

Out of the post-war rubble came a new crew: The National Front (NF) — a merger of smaller outfits who wanted to revive the old ideas with new branding.

They weren’t subtle. They marched, shouted, and tried to dominate the streets. For a moment in the 1970s, they looked like they might become a real force. But internal fights, public backlash, and cultural change pushed them back into the shadows.

THE 1980s–2000s: THE BNP — “THE POLITICAL WING”

Then came the British National Party (BNP) — the crew that tried to swap boots for ballots.

They wore suits, knocked on doors, and talked about “identity” instead of ideology. For a while, it worked: council seats, headlines, even a European Parliament seat.

But like all families built on internal grudges, they tore themselves apart. By the 2010s, the BNP was a ghost of its former self.

THE 1990s–2010s: THE STREET GANGS — “THE NEW BREED”

As the old political crews collapsed, the street-level outfits took over.

Combat 18

The muscle — violent, chaotic, unpredictable. More fists than philosophy.

English Defence League (EDL)

The protest-first movement. Loud, confrontational, built for cameras and clashes.

Britain First

A splinter crew specialising in viral stunts and doorstep theatrics.

These weren’t political machines — they were street operations, built for noise, not elections.

THE 2020s: THE DIGITAL CREWS — “THE ONLINE FAMILIES”

Now we enter the era of Patriotic Alternative and similar groups — small in number, big in online presence. *NOW supported by 'BRITISH MEDIA'

Nowadays they don’t need marches. They don’t need leaflets. They operate through livestreams, Telegram channels, and algorithm-friendly content - and right wing media domination.

It’s the same old ideology, just wearing a digital tracksuit.

A GB2GB's Right Wing 'MAFIA' - looking out for your future - unlike the media which is creating your future?
