This is a cross post from Edmund Standing’s blog

In a post at the Stormfront forum, news has been announced of Remembrance events organised by Blood & Honour and the National Front.

Blood & Honour is an international neo-Nazi organisation, which, following the publication of research of mine by the Centre for Social Cohesion, is currently being investigated by both the police and the Home Office. Baroness Neville-Jones, Shadow Security Minister, has written to the Home Secretary, Alan Johnson, calling for the organisation to be proscribed under anti-terror legislation.

Blood & Honour has links to all the ‘white nationalist’ parties in Britain, including the BNP, which employed a long time Blood & Honour activist as part of its event staff at this year’s ‘Red, White & Blue’ festival.

This is how Blood & Honour plans to remember the fallen:

Blood & Honour, of course, thinks the wrong side won World War 2.

In the same thread in which the Blood & Honour gig was advertised, the National Front has also posted a flyer for a Remembrance Sunday event they are planning.

A Blood & Honour/National Front activist states:

Please don’t just turn up for the gig, its VERY important that you attend the march the following day as if this march is lost it will be lost for ever.  The Police say they will close the road and let everyone use it for the NF march as long as we have at least 120.

So, the National Front is planning to team up with hardcore neo-Nazis on a day which is supposed to honour the fallen heroes of Britain, including those who died to save us from Nazism.

According to the NF website:

The march should commence in the Victoria area and proceed to the Cenotaph for the wreath laying ceremony to honour Britain’s war dead of all past conflicts and current ones. This will be followed by a short rally and a social get together. Assemble 2pm. March off 2.30pm.

The NF, then, plans to march alongside neo-Nazis and disgrace the Cenotaph with their presence.

That the NF should be linking up with Blood & Honour is no surprise, for it is an extremist organisation with links not only to B&H, but also to the Combat 18 splinter group the Racial Volunteer Force.

One person who may be particularly happy to hear that the NF is planning to march on Sunday is, of course, Lee Barnes, Legal Director of the BNP. Here’s what he has written about the National Front:

The National Front is an organisation for those people who are Street Activists, not political activists.

When it sticks to street activism it does a superb job…

The National Front must become the Nationalist counterpart to the Leftist UAF.

The NF should be organising massive Armistice Day celebrations, demonstrations, festivals, rock concerts, marches, cultural events and many other nationalist cultural events, not wasting theit time on electioneering.

… this is precisely the role that the NF would do best.

I wait with interest to see what Barnes has to say about the ’superb’ National Front and their neo-Nazi activities this coming weekend.
