Who are we British? Part 3 of 3
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 3: Jim Dowson B.Th
Jesus said, “Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends”. John 15:13
I stand by the above statement and my friends are my Nation and people, some with faith and some with none, I make NO distinction and by deed I have in the past and will continue in the future to serve my people without any consideration of what they believe or don’t believe. With this reality in mind I invite you to read on..
In the first 2 parts of this three part thesis I had argued that our Christian heritage (not necessarily living) has been fundamental to what we call ‘The British’ our worldview, our internal outlook, indeed I suggested that the very concept of Britannia was, in the modern term ,1600 until 1900 forged by the Christian faith and our sense of unity and community and was until very recently, sustained and nourished by our national faith. This is NOT in any way an abandonment of our rich ancient, pre-history cultural legacy. As an Ulster Scot whose main families have lived within the same square mile town land for almost 400 years since returning to our homeland during the plantation. Indeed as an Ulster/Scot or Ulaid my family have lived within a 50 mile radius for the last 5000 years.
Nowhere in Europe will you find a more ancient, less diluted tribe than here, my wife, daughter-in-law and son-in-law all share multiple clan names with my own family. On the road where I live we have 4 ancient ceremonial mounds and a huge standing stone and a few miles away we have a much larger ancient ceremonial site that most families visit regularly with their kids to tell tales of the great battles for Ulster against the Gaelic men of Ireland. Even today you can see the mighty Setanta, (Cuchulainn), hero of Ulster depicted on the banners of our loyalist marching and deeply Christian orders.
The continuity is real and present for me and millions of Celts and unlike many in nationalist circles on the mainland we have no tension between our ancient non-Christian tribal heroes and our Christian present. Unlike many of my critics I have regularly and publically carried aloft the banners of our ancient folk heroes and fastidiously educate my children in the ancient ways of my people and our folklore and special places. Normally we do this on a Sunday after church!
So, like millions more here, I am totally relaxed with the present and ancient and we treat the task of keeping alive our tribal identity far more serious than many I have met in nationalist circles, many of whom talk a lot but build very little even through their own family, communal or wider social circles. To these people I say “don’t tell me what I am doing wrong, show me what you have done right”
Like most of my kin, my siblings and I were raised on tales of Tuatha De’ Danann, Queen Medb, King Arthur, Merlin and much more, (including Arthurs quest for Christ’s Holy Grail). I have a living and still very much present relationship with my ancient ancestors and in Ireland that connection is no airy fairy, dreamy, festival based historical spectacle; Oh no, it is real, on-going and ever present within the communities. Who actually knows the religious practices of my ancestors whose bones lay in the fields all around me and are still very much a part of our society here? I don’t but it is not that important to the on-going cultural narrative of my ancient relatives.
So, just because I promote the faith that my blood and tribe has adhered to for 1,500 years does NOT mean I reject our ancient forefathers or their/my myths and legends. Indeed, unlike the rest of transient Britain, here in ‘Ireland’ we have a much stronger living and unbroken connection to our ancestors than in most other places. I believe that now in many parts of Britain people only possess an historical or intellectual acknowledgement of who they might be and therefore are inclined to cling onto or are attracted to, so-called paganism as a mechanism to connect to the ancestors who went before them or to provide them with a sense of historical belonging.
This is an admirable quest in principle, but it a mechanism I and millions of my fellow tribesmen have simply no need of as we already have that strong and unbroken link to the ancient. Nevertheless, to seek re-connection is worthy and of great importance in the struggle to unite our people in order to fight and survive the onslaught of the Islamic invaders. I think we can achieve this separate from imbibing a mystical collection of religious beliefs that have been out of our national and collective memories for almost 1,600 years.
Here in Celtic Ireland or in Gaelic Scotland, few need this surrogate pagan connection because our link to the ancients has never been broken and is still a vibrant part of who we are today. This is not to claim cultural superiority but merely to explain a reality that exists. On my mother’s knee I learnt of Nelson, Wallace, Clive, Cuchulainn, St Patrick, the Kingdom of Dalriada and the heroes of the British Empire, all explained in unbroken breath as a living narrative of my tribe and the unified nation we now owe allegiance to.
Today I fear, few can say the same. This may be the reason I have little or no interest in Pan European Nationalism, Where would I find the room in an already full repository of cultural identity and faith, why would I wish to?
My cultural and ancient ties run deep, my Celtic heritage is brim full and ever living so I have little need of searching for an identity anchor. I, like millions of Scots/Irish, know exactly who we are and where we came from, not just in an intellectual way but in an everyday real and living sense (clan enmity still exists in Scotland and the Ulster conflict has much more to do with tribal identity than it has with religion) This may explain some important differences between me and many of my detractors.
I have the great blessing to live in a society where we take for granted our tribal stability and ancient ties and therefore are very relaxed and confident about our identity. Many without this understandably are prone to lash out at what they wrongly perceive as a betrayal of the ‘old ways’ of our peoples, but without themselves having in any real sense, a current living connection with any facet of the ancient blood or continuity of tribal identity, other than as a bi-product of a political ideology.
Words are fine but look at the reality. Today my tribe, firmly rooted in our ancient past but now deeply Christian and ferociously patriotic (and racially aware) regularly puts 100,000 marching tribesmen in military formation onto the streets of Ulster (that’s 5 million in English population terms), often in violent defiance of the authorities. On some occasions we have up to 300,000 on the streets across our land, that’s one in three of all males. Can you imagine such power harnessed and then unleashed by English nationalists?
So before you dismiss me and my world, think on and imagine if Nationalists in Britain could muster 5,000,000 or even 15,000,000 men, marching in military formation and willing to die rather than even be re-routed let alone banned? At present in Britain we could barely muster a few thousand between all the nationalist groups combined and even then it would more resemble a gang of unruly football hooligans than a civilian militia of determined patriots. I know England isn’t Ulster but unless she learns Ulster’s lessons and pretty damned quick, our children will perish and the black flag of Islam will fly from every public building in THEIR acquired land.
Britain’s isolation and state of constant war with continental Europe was borne out of our religious separation from them at the Reformation and gave us a sense of ’ourselves alone’ a uniqueness, even a national sense of superiority over our European neighbours who still clung to the old religion of the stifling Middle Ages.
Think of Elizabeth I’s Tilbury speech, think of Nelsons motivations and prayers.
Think also of our empire building and the nations that were spawned from these shores, America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Rhodesia, and South Africa and their religious identity. Why us, what made the British so different from all others? To the racial purists I caution against citing genetic superiority, could we really be that THAT superior to the Swedes or Danes or Norwegians or Germans?
NO, I don’t think so. Most scholars, religious or secular agree that wherever WE Britons went, we took our sense of being special and chosen with us as well as our blueprint for commerce, law, civil governance and lofty ideals of building a righteous and prosperous society. Some scholars think this a bad thing, some think it good, but all agree that the vein that ran through the entire package of what it meant to be British was our commitment to our faith and our desire to share our ‘superior’ form of religion, civic governance and the ‘work ethic’ not only with the savages but with those of the ‘old world’ Much of the time we were often in fierce competition with the old Christian world mainly dominated by Spain and France. Politics back then was religion and religion was politics, nearly every decision was subject to or the result of religious considerations.
The world of secular politics is a relatively new phenomenon and in reality totally bogus. Think of George Bush, Reagan, Thatcher, Paisley, McGuiness and Blair to name but a few high profile leaders, unpalatable to most but all driven in policy by their religious commitment and world view. Even in the EU, Prodi, and many of the top commissioners including the Bank appointed Italian premier are Church educated and hold top positions in European religious orders. The naive idea of separating religion from politics is ludicrous. If a man is a deeply committed Christian/Jew/ Muslim his thinking will be massively shaped by this worldview into every aspect of his career, decision making and policy. Just imagine if Jim Dowson was a government minister or councillor? Take my point.
One only has to explore by study the evangelical zeal of many (if not most) of our past elder statesmen, prime ministers, military heroes and explorers to see clearly how utterly intertwined our sense of national pride and identity was fused with our religion. As a nation, our special, isolated Christian faith bound us together against the world up until very recently. Religion has been described as a power beyond ourselves which makes for righteousness. Look at Nelson for example: The great assertion which lies at the root of Christianity is that "behind all the changes and chances of this mortal life is God, and it is our duty to obey Him, to fear Him, and to love Him." NELSON
Nelson was a parson's son. He prayed morning and evening and wrote special prayers in his log when about to engage the enemy in battle. To him England’s war against Napoleon was a holy war. "God and my country" were his passion.
He would say, “I will do my best, and hope that God Almighty will go with me." When his ship was damaged in the Gulf of Lyons he was gratefully humble and said: “Firmly I believe that it was the Almighty's goodness - to check my consummate vanity. I believe that it has made me a better officer, as I feel confident that it has made me a better man.” Just before Trafalgar an officer surprised Nelson in his cabin as he was writing his last prayer – for England and humanity.
“May the great God whom I worship grant to my country, and for the benefit of Europe in general, a great and glorious victory; and may no misconduct in anyone tarnish it; and may humanity after victory be the predominant feature in the British Fleet! For myself ...I commit my life to Him Who made me, and may His blessing light upon my endeavours for serving my country faithfully. To Him I resign myself and the just cause entrusted to me to defend. Amen. Amen. Amen.”
Nelson dies in the moment of victory, repeating to himself his vindication: "Thank God, I have done my duty!" What a man, what a hero, what a Stout British National Christian Patriot!
Today only a fool would say that it is a vibrant, living faith that binds us, indeed we are undone on a communal and national level so it is self-evident that the glue (whatever you think it was) has dissolved and we as a people are now disparate and isolated from any notion of social oneness or national unity in any real or tangible sense. However, there are still occasions when the fumes of our past rock solid cohesiveness and sense of ‘oneness’ can be inhaled by our people in a very ‘British ‘sense.
Just look at how Royal events, be they weddings, funerals, trooping of the colours or a jubilee bring out millions onto the Mall and achieve the highest TV ratings of all and spawn tens of thousands of street parties and celebrations across the land. Remembrance Day also involves millions in a national act of collective reflection in 50,000 churches and war memorials across the nation. Victory celebrations like VE day, VJ day and the Falklands also bring out millions of Brits onto the streets in a brief patriotic display of ‘oneness’. . Imagine if nationalism could but harness 10% of this we would sweep away the whole rotten edifice of the EU and Islam in a few months.
Other Christian events, less obviously but no less unifying for the ‘British’ like Christmas and Easter also provide well-loved vehicles for nation unity and participation. On a smaller community level, weddings baptisms and funerals often provide the only opportunity for a family or community to interact in these increasingly socially isolated times Sporting events also bring out a sort of national pride, albeit rather parochial and crude.
I would ask the reader to look at the mechanics and rituals surrounding and underpinning all of these major national events! An outsider from Mars would be given the impression that this nation and her people were religious fanatics when faced with the pomp and circumstance of our main cultural events, most of which start or finish in a church or are smothered in rich Christian language, paraphernalia and clergy.
Many of us Brits are so used to seeing our big events or are that busy participating in them that we are no longer cognisant of their presence, but I say, look again my friend and look well. For it is only when something becomes so totally ingrained does it become invisible and this I submit, is the case with many, if not most of our people and their relationship with Christianity in the context of involvement in our national events. A strong but subconscious awareness of the Church however, remove it or attack it and a whirlwind is unleashed, likewise harness this social reality correctly and a tornado will rip through this land uprooting all foreign palms and strange fruit that now grow in Albion’s fertile soil.
Let us be clear here, I am not advocating the promotion of any kind of religious revival, indeed it is my opinion that this side of a war, such a thing would not be possible or desirable. I merely point out that our existing deep rooted Christian heritage has in the past, and now to a lesser more cultural extent, still acts as a national form of unifying glue that cements our many competing factions and ideologies and identities together as one nation and one people.
To be extra clear when I say Christian heritage I refer to its by-products mentioned above, I do not necessarily refer to an ecclesiastical or real and personal commitment to the faith. This is a point many fail to see or are unable to discern, and interpreted as a valid intellectual nationalist position despite it being so glaringly obvious by the above events that it spawns and their popularity among our peoples, even today. Surely it is folly for the 5 million who attend church weekly, the millions who have been in the scouts, boys brigade, girl guides and the other tens of millions who consider themselves in some way connected to Christianity to be ‘overlooked’ or ignored and even ridiculed by many in the British nationalist movement?
It is akin to a mosquito ignoring an elephant; it means little to the great beast but renders the mosquito weak and doomed to an emaciated death. In Europe many of the fantastically successful nationalist parties are drawing their disproportionate strength from their Christian host; their lifeblood is being veraciously sucked up and transferred into political success on the back of the ancient Christian heritage that provides a unifying framework.
All across Europe nationalism is being fed and promoted by the local churches and historical links to Christianity yet many clever British nationalists are totally blind to this and have no idea of the massive Christian/nationalist hook up going on. Look at Belgium, Hungary, Russia, Bulgaria, Romania, Poland etc, etc, etc. It may be downplayed for expediency but I have been and seen the political youth camps in Europe and the Ukraine, they are run and administered by the churches and the local branch set ups are often working in, or out of church owned premises.
The upsurge in successful nationalist organizations is inextricably linked to their Christian heritage in Europe. Only where the church has been replaced with ideology has the movement by in large, stagnated and became a caricature of an ‘earlier national socialist time’. Plenty of noisy presence lacking any real support or any vestige of power or people appeals in any significant way.
It is clear that a significant number of nationalists are completely out of kilter with the average patriotic man and woman on the street in Britain. Yes, this may be because “they are all brainwashed zombies” as my nationalist purist friends repeatedly tell me, maybe, but never the less we must work with what we have and to alienate 95% of those who consider themselves to be proud Brits is almost masochistic, even sadistic and incredibly restrictive to the building of an integrated, united and common cause movement that can fight and win!
Let me grasp the nettle here and risk being the new hate figure for the purists. Many, if not most nationalists that I speak to currently in the movement i.e., BNP/NF/BPP (or ex) are wedded to ideals that are totally repellent to most people who are proud to be British. The promotion of paganism, the ridicule of Christianity, the hatred of national icons like the Queen, Churchill, Cromwell and many more who are beloved of our people is a complete turn off to most, as has been proved over the last 60 years. Also, The fixation with race, not the problems that racial immigration brings, but with skin tone no matter where the people reside and a whole other raft of self-isolating hobby horses like ZOG, the Bilderbergers, Zionist bankers and an ever increasing plethora of other conspiracies have reduced our appeal to numbers that could easily fit in a decent sized community hall.
Let us be very, very clear here, like the great boxer Ali, I too am a solid racialist and I am no Zionist and yes, I do believe there is a N.W.O reality and that the EU is but one dimension to this evil, but to dwell on these deeply misunderstood and people repelling subjects while also chasing further millions away by the anti-Christian, anti ww2- Churchill iconology and anti-Royal creeds that run so deep within branches of the nationalist movement leaves us where we are now…nowhere, powerless, marginalized and ignored by the vast majority who are themselves ‘patriotic’ Britons. The fact is, most British patriotic citizens love much of what nationalists hate! There is no future in such folly for the ‘nationalist’ movement, NONE WHATSOEVER!
Sadly, I have reason to believe by the blatant and consistent self-destructive behaviour among nationalists, we have now self-selected ourselves to the position where many are simply so cranky and ‘far out’ that reasoned debate and cerebral considerations is almost pointless with many. Some openly use German icons or link to 1930’s National Socialism on their webs and blogs and even the more ‘intellectual’ among our ranks are swept into the so called ‘new’ right-wing think tanks. These self-aggrandising talking shops are where self-proclaimed intellectual giants still churn out (albeit in a far more cognisant way) the same old ‘Blood and soil’, national socialist, pagan folklore ridden, Germanic in flavour, toxic material that landed us in political obscurity and national disdain in the first place. Yet they keep talking, and the British people keep walking…. AWAY!
The proclamations and lofty speeches from the rights so-called, ‘intellectual elite’ is not even propaganda, as propaganda at least tries to induce converts to join the cause. The stuff they peddle repels all but the paid up NS nationalists anyway and merely serves to reinforce the opinions of a few purists in their own political conceit and self-deception. More drivel, more hot air, more isolation and ever nearer to our collective national doom.
I am not saying its right, I am not saying it’s wrong but I am saying that, to 99% of the patriotic public it is not only weird and cranky but deeply offensive and contrary to what they hold dear, and right or wrong, ‘them are the potatoes’ as our cousins across the pond say.
However, despite the reality of our near complete failure and lack of impact even at local level some nationalist fight on with their rejected and people repelling ideologies. Like some kind of nihilistic cult hell bent on offending and driving away the greatest number of our people, many within our movement still proclaim publically that which should barely be whispered privately. Do these people get a kick out of being ridiculed or loathed? Are they in competition to see who can be the most socially and politically isolated and despised? If so, there are many contenders within our ranks.
This is not a principled noble stance, its gross self-abuse and plays fast and loose with our children’s future and I for one, am utterly fed up with these people and the nihilistic and the socially putrid message they proclaim to an increasingly hostile British public!
Some say I play this game also? Not so, I am deeply involved with several socially Conservative groups whose memberships and influence far outstretched the BNP at their height, but few within them will come over to our cause because of the reasons I have already laboured upon. These connections together with my entire families integration in the fiercely patriotic Ulster Unionist culture, my wider church involvement and my normal business activities gives me a fairly good handle on what I am talking about and how others, who should be our natural allies, see us and the movement generally.
However, one cannot argue in this, such a troubled arena without offending many, that is a fact. I take no pleasure from this and it does indeed grieve me, but we will be at war soon enough and the avoidance of causing offence is to be truthful, not my primary concern at present. In this I ask your understanding and patience. It is true I see little purpose in pandering to a minute number of nationalist pagans if it means we by doing so we lose far more Christians. Nor do I think we should bend over to the tiny gay nationalist lobby under any circumstances. If we can carry the pagans along, great, but we shouldn’t even contemplate the concept of the ‘pink nationalist ‘lobby being a valid expression or branch of our cause ‘Period’.
Many may indeed dispute the veracity of my interpretations but I caution the reader to weigh up the dissenters personal social standing and current, wider local community involvement before coming to a conclusion. It’s easy to agree with each other, but it’s the millions of directionless and unattached patriots we need to be concerned about. These millions are found among our neighbours and townsfolk. Unlike many of the dreamer’s among the nationalist fraternity, I know my kin, in and out of politics;
I am involved in every facet of my local and wider community. I know my tribe and they know me. Most weekends as many nationalist dream or pontificate in the cyber world, myself and my children are marching with thousands of our fellow patriotic tribesmen bound together by BOTH ancient ancestral blood ties and our communal Christian heritage. This is real life for me, day after day, not a nationalist fantasy world that so many of my comrades now seem intent in retreating into (if they ever really came out at all) only daring to ‘fight to the death’ from the warm confines of their homes and wielding nothing more dangerous than a keyboard!
History is a great teacher and in the early days of the Ulster conflict the Provisional IRA did not exist, but the Official IRA did but lost ground and the support of the Church and the people because they openly spouted their well-developed but unpopular Marxist ideology and disdain for the Church, and following a brave but poor defence of their communities in 69 the opportunity to oust them presented itself and the provisionals' were born. No less Marxist in ideology but they were not so vocally anti church and thus gained the support of their church and people and as they say, the rest is history. Today this once small band of geeky, idealistic teenagers jointly runs my country and a quarter of the United Kingdom, and all done in less than 25 years. My joint first minister, Martin McGuiness attends church every single day, a lefty yes, but one who has reconciled his political ideals with the cultural/religious and community reality for most of his people.
I trust most can see my point but in case it’s lost on some it’s this: All ideologies are valid in someone’s eyes but many are not expedient or even acceptable to most. We must harness national icons and cultural landmarks on our communal landscape and use them to our advantage rather than attempt to tear down the very things that our enemies are also trying to destroy. The message many nationalists proclaim is simply too confusing to most. Islam hates the Queen - many nationalists hate the Queen, Islam hates the Christian church - many nationalists have enmity against the church, Islam hates our military icons - many nationalists openly rail against the nations favourite military icons (Churchill), and Islam hates Israel - many nationalists also hate Israel (I personally have no love for Israel before you ask). Can you see a pattern emerging here?
In study after study the academic world has shown that what makes ‘The British Feel British’ are: The Royal Family, WW2, Dunkirk/Spitfires/Churchill and all that, The Christian Church and festivals, Our Xenophobia!, especially against the French and Germans and our public displays of pomp and ceremony. Do many of these resonate with the current crop of ‘Nationalists’??
The ideological arguments that emanate from the lower, middle and upper echelons of the nationalist world in Britain are very interesting, some indeed may be valid but they are akin to a group of penniless, homeless starving men sitting around the dying embers of almost extinguished fire in the dead of winter but rather than seek survival, warmth and nourishment they insist on discussing the intricacies, evils and authors of fractional banking and derivatives! Such a hopelessly deluded band is doomed by the law of natural selection to perish from this earth and with them their lofty ideals. I have no desire to sit pontificating while the fire goes out, waiting for deaths icy grip to carry me off into the inky blackness of the winter’s night of national defeat, assimilation or racial annihilation.
I have been brutally honest in this three part thesis, I have laid bare who I am, where I am coming from and where I believe we should go and unlike many within the movement, I have personal and intimate experience of widespread communal violence, ethnic cleansing of areas, the deaths of defending patriots and the impact of prolonged armed assaults on a society. Every single day of my life I meet and pass the widows and children of patriots who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in defence of my tribe’s homeland. Many if not most of my neighbours have served and lost family members in recent times in the defence of this part of the UK, so the future of England’s struggle in particular is real to me in a very practical and sombre sense. I have little time for fantasist ‘political soldiers’, cranks or blowhards.
Thousands on both sides died here in my lifetime, hundreds of thousands were maimed for life, and these people are my friends and family. They are the general population all around me, even in my small quiet town in a relatively safe area we had 12 locals murdered, dozens more maimed and scores of men imprisoned for daring to fight back. we also had over 400 local men serve with the official defence regiments and police and hundreds further in the ranks of the paramilitary forces and all from a town of 6,000 in a ‘quiet ‘ area of Ulster. Maybe that’s why I have an uncompromising, abrasive persona regarding our national struggle. I have seen and heard it all before and I see too many in our movement content to indulge themselves in pointless fringe political standpoints that almost guarantee our continued isolation from the millions who we need to engage with and who already crave a vehicle to pin their allegiance to. Our people are looking for a movement where honesty, integrity, and decency are paramount but they also want something familiar and recognizable and something that they can easily identify with.
All I suggest is that we could do a lot worse than to play on the national, ancient and cultural icons that the Christian church has provided these last 1,500 years to encompass a sense of our shared communal, historical and national experience, purely as a way to galvanise a significant number of our people into a movement of resistance and ultimately, conflict. It may not be perfect and may only be a part of the answer but I contend that is a far more appealing ideal to millions of British patriots than what we currently offer and have had repeatedly rejected by our kinsmen these last 60 years.
Whatever you make of this thesis remember this: A terrible conflict of unimaginable ferocity and horror is coming, our ruling elite will be with the enemy and the battle ground will be the towns and cities from the Midlands up to Lancashire and west Yorkshire. Millions of ordinary British people will be displaced and hundreds of thousands will perish. Our wives, our daughters, and our sons will die in a Jihad of bombs, bullets and mayhem unleashed from a thousand Mosques across the land. We lost 3,600 here in NI in a tiny population (over 100,000 in an English context) but what has already started on the mainland will be far more brutal and deadly than the Ulster conflict ever was.
No one will escape the carnage, no family will remain unscathed, and the graveside will become a familiar and regular meeting place as we lay to rest those loved ones slain from among our midst by the religious fanatics of an exploding unified Islamic war machine. For them the conflict is all about faith and that is their strength and the power that will launch them upon our children and grandchildren like a medieval whirlwind of death and destruction.
Our forefathers knew only too well this desert wind of death but defeated it on the battle fields of tours, Vienna, Budapest, Valencia and lepanto. Your ancestors and mine crushed the bloody crescent moon under a sea of Holy white banners, with the sacred blood red sign of Christ’s cross emblazoned upon them. It is my personal and deeply held conviction that only when our people, like our fathers before us, raise again the battle standard of the Lamb of God before us, can we be assured of victory over the tens of millions of embedded Islamist Jihadists and their traitor allies here in this country.
Finally, I humbly suggest that far more Britons would rally to the banner of the Cross rather than to the banner of Mosley, Merlin or a German inspired, National Socialism. One thing is for sure, we shall all live or die on the decisions and directions we establish now. There are but a few summers left to us before the dark clouds of Islam’s winter extinguishes the light for many a generation. I truly wish that we could avoid this conflict but it is absolutely inevitable. We are the last of the FREE Britons my friend so choose your path wisely. Your children’s lives do really depend on the actions we take NOW!
Thank you for your patience and forbearance in reading this very lengthy thesis and be assured, whatever happens my household will fight and NEVER surrender, it’s in our blood and after 400 years of almost constant unbroken warfare here , fighting is all we know, let’s hope those on the mainland of Britain are fast learners.

WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 2: Jim Dowson B.Th
In the first part of my paper examining who we are and what made us and just why nationalism has spectacularly failed to engage all but the tiniest proportion of our people despite circumstances that should make nationalism a first choice for millions.
My main proposition was, and is, that patriotic politics (nationalism), has failed miserably because its ethos (real or perceived) is rooted in a European model of racial nationalist expression which is an alien and foreign product and a most un-appealing ideology to us Brits for many reasons, not least of which is its intrinsic rejection of our own rich and ancient Christian heritage (real or perceived).
In the first part of this paper I was deliberately provocative in challenging the ‘nationalist mind-set’ by showing how overwhelmingly their ideas of what constitutes a ‘patriot’ had been rejected for over half a century, but still many nationalist leaders bang the same old busted drum, never attracting, only repelling, fresh generations of our beleaguered people.
Many critics will no doubt immediately brand me a Christian fundamentalist or race traitor with an agenda. Well, this is partly true, but the critics offer very little reasoned, researched or balanced arguments against my points.
Indeed, many nationalists contend that people like me, who use Christian language and references, are hopelessly out of kilter with the mainstream.
These sentiments only reinforce my premise that it is nationalism (especially the more racially vocal type), in its current manifestations, that is out of touch, irrelevant, mysterious and deeply unattractive to most British patriots.
Recently, a respected opinion poll cited that 40% of British children these days do not know the ‘Lord’s Prayer’ as opposed to only 10% not knowing this thirty five years ago.
This interesting news has stirred up church leaders and annoyed many religious people and indeed many nationalists have used this study as ammunition against me and my opinions.
However, let us for a moment ponder these figures: 40% of our kids DON’T know the Lord’s Prayer, but an incredible 60% actually DO KNOW IT!
What percentage of our children, even those from nationalist parents know what the ‘14 words’ stand for, or what ZOG means or what the NWO stands for or what we mean by white racial nationalism?
Right or wrong, these are the facts and we would be foolish in the extreme to ignore such an obvious communal creed and common bond still so vibrant within our young people.
The same study threw up another interesting point: more children NOW think God and religion is important than their parent’s generation, this despite a drop in church attendance over the period.
This is a fascinating snippet of information and needs some very deep thought and consideration.
Could this be a reaction against their parents’ consumer-based lifestyle over the last twenty years?
Could the ‘baby boom’ generations mantra of free love, their replacement of God with consumerism, be coming to an end?
Has a fifty year social anomaly now run its course? Who knows, but I think it is entirely possible.
You see humans, all humans, need something bigger than themselves to ‘buy into’ - the baby boomers merely replaced their forefathers’ ancient stone and stained glassed ‘communal’ landmarks with Bluewater, the Arundale Centre and a thousand other shopping centre temples to the new consumer gods of Asda, Tesco, Next and JJB sports.
The 1940s generation was sold the idea that individualism was the new path to enlightenment and this human salvation could be brought about by embracing the glittering new deities of personal wealth and consumerism.
Also important to this promised route to personal and social Nirvana was the total rejection of the collective and familiar cultural icons and traditional mores that for centuries acted as the glue that held together our once strong communities, extended families and our collective idea of nationhood.
Let me be very clear here: I do not wish to see the nationalist movement become a full on Christian enterprise nor do I think that would work or appeal to the average Brit.
I am however, suggesting that Christianity is so deeply ingrained into the fabric of our society at every level, that we would be foolish to ignore this.
I would go further and say that our brand of Christianity is not just in the fabric of our nation, it is interwoven into every Britons cultural DNA and the collective narrative of our island race.
Cultural markers like the Lord’s Prayer are like ancient echoes that resonate deep within us and around us. Similarly our Christian architecture has shaped what we think of as the quintessential British townscape.
From the lofty parish spires we see in the distance marking out an ancient town or village, seen through the eyes of a hundred generations of our people, to the palace of Westminster, built as a gothic temple as Pugin and Barry re-defined what it was to build in a ‘British style’.
Look around you: nearly all of our Victorian town halls, railway stations and civic buildings are so ecclesiastic in appearance that they confuse many a tourist.
Even the foremost ‘temple’ to Darwinism and secular modernity, the Natural History Museum, was built in the form of a great medieval Christian cathedral.
This is why our historical faith and religious heritage is so terribly important to the idea of ‘Britishness’ and to most Britons.
It is the civic glue that binds us as a people and echoes the voices of our ancestors’ collective experiences down through the millennium and it resides deep within millions of our kinsfolk.
We have nothing else so powerful, so subliminal or so accessible that we can easily access for the benefit of our struggle and for the unification of our people in the dark days that lie ahead of us.
This cultural cement took 1,500 years to set, for fifty years the cultural Marxists have chipped away at it, as have the secular ‘national socialists’, atheist racial purists and the pagan nationalists, but our cultural Christian heritage is a powerful binding agent, not just a superficial veneer of creeds, clergy and buildings.
It is part of our national and personal DNA and can never be fully removed from us.
Indeed, give it the slightest encouragement and it will burst spectacularly into full bloom again.
Or, when faced with a spiritual/political foe such as Islam, our ancient faith, (cultural or personal), shall rise up in a most masculine and aggressive format in defence of the host, the Nation that nurtured and adapted it to our specific requirements as a people.
The faith of our fathers is not dead - it merely sleeps within us and may well be awakened by the invaders ‘Adhan’ call to prayer from the forest of Minarets that now populate our landscape.
It shocks and exasperates me that so many patriots and nationalists fail to recognise or accept this and still continue in their belief that people like me are out of touch.

History has told us time and again that no secular society has ever succeeded in quashing a people with a deeply held faith, even when in the minority.
This is where the Frankfurt schools ideology has gone wrong.
Yes they managed to secularize almost the entire top tier of our political structures and society.
But they had not, and by their own secularism, could not, ever had envisaged how easily a vibrant, unified faith community like Islam could then take over a society that the Frankfurters had stripped bare of its natural defences.
It is not only us that now lie weak and prostrate, it is the Marxists too, as they will soon find out as Islam rises in the countries that they have left ruined and vulnerable.
However, this disaster may carry the seeds of our own salvation too: if a highly motivated and unified community like Islam can sweep aside the PC and politically effeminate ruling classes so can we.
Indeed Islam may show us the way ahead.
Militant Islam may re-ignite our collective and civic consciousness and notions of nationhood which, in my opinion, can only be found in a shared national, historical Christian context.
In the 2010 census 46 million Britons described themselves as ‘Christian’, and over 5 million get up, dress in their best and make the effort to go to their local Church every Sunday.
To ignore such a committed mass movement and spiritual reality within our own people is national suicide.
After 80 years of internal subversion many church goers are indeed bleeding heart liberals, but the vast majorities are not.
In fact, secular liberalism is far more widespread than Christian liberalism and I suggest that besides the race issue, many nationalists are far more socially liberal than most Christians would dare to be.
The vast majority of Christians in the UK are deeply hostile to Islam, unbridled immigration, the EU, ‘gay rights’, the PC lobby and many other nationalist common causes.
Most are also opposed to thuggish behaviour, divorce, sexual promiscuity, drunkenness, foul language and the football hooligan mentality. These, unfortunately are some of the social ills that have dogged nationalism for years with little or no effort spent in trying to address these issues.
More importantly, Christians, like most fellow Britons are fairly xenophobic, however they are also instinctively anti-racist in the sense that they will broach no discussion on the merits of a man depending on his racial group or skin colour or ethnic identity alone.
We Brits tend to judge a man on who he is, rather than what he is.
Yes, most of us have a moan about the foreigners down the road but our ingrained sense of fair play and personal respect for our fellow man prevents millions from giving perceived blanket racist groups our support.
I cite the NF and BNP as classic examples of this moral and national dichotomy for our people.
Fair play, decency and reasonable tolerance are sacred cows for most Britons, especially Christians, as is their absolute abhorrence of anything that is, or could be classified as belonging to the school of Nazism or Communism.
In fact, to even discuss such things among Christians often results in immediate rejection of the bearer and whatever cause (no matter how noble it may be) he or she may be espousing.
Right or wrong, Frankfurt influenced or not, this is how it is and we do not have another eighty years to re-educate millions of natural patriots on the nuances of racial differences and the mitochondrial markers in the inferior peoples of the world.
Now, I must be brutally honest and up front here: as a patriot whose childhood was deeply rooted in the Orange/Loyalist culture, which is uncompromisingly and fiercely patriotic, I knew virtually no one in our world that liked the BNP or NF.
Yes, some of us , myself included, flirted with so called ‘Nationalism’ of the mainly English BNP/NF variety in our youth, but almost all of us were totally repelled and alienated by the often intense pro-Nazi/white power/ZOG/pagan obsessed ethos of many within the movement.
For a time I lived and worked in London, during which the Brixton riots happened and around then several whites had also been butchered by blacks.
As a committed and heavily involved loyalist my only reference to such massive attacks on a community was to strike back, but all I saw was the natural anger, rage and tribal need to survive being stifled by endless, inane political ramblings every day in the NF’s Pawsons Road HQ or in the Swan pub up the road.
Lots of big talk, intellectual talk, stupid talk, but absolutely no action.
Englishmen and women were dying, our capital city was being destroyed, but the only response from the nationalist leaders were delusional ten hour discussions on ‘white superiority’ and electoral daydreams of securing a modicum of power through the ballot box.
There is nothing superior about a people who refuse to defend themselves or exact retribution from those who would seek to destroy them and their children’s birth right.
The political system was and still is used as a tool to lock up and channel our national outrage and our youthful energies and strength into safe and controlled neutralising political safety nets.
Despite many nationalists now understanding this we yet again we see our youth in the form of the potentially revolutionary EDL now being corralled into the futile political system.
This will neutralise any threat they may have posed and will end in failure just like the NF/BNP before them.
The EDL/BFP will probably be even bigger than their NF/BNP predecessors in order for the state to keep a lid on the increasingly deteriorating ethnic/political situation in Britain.
Alas, it will be nothing more than a state sponsored holding pen and intelligence gathering operation for the best of our young patriots and that is the real tragedy, for this is our last generation before Islamic Armageddon in this Country.
To be completely clear, I personally despise the ideologies and practical applications of much of German National Socialism and I have little time for the real Nazis, but I reserve my real disgust and bitter contempt for the crackpot wannabe Nazi clowns who have caused our noble Cause to be so despised in the eyes of the British public for over sixty years.
It is we British who are a special and ‘chosen people’, not the Germans!
I am no multi-cult ‘civic’ nationalist, I assure you and I care little for the Jews and the state of Israel or their Palestinian foes (a plague on all their houses) but I am also no Nazi apologist, admirer or fan.
We have legions of our own heroes and have no need to go looking for European ones.
Nor am I a blanket racist, I have an affinity with all of mankind but I prefer and wish to preserve my own tribe and nation more than any other factor.
I treat all humans, black, brown, yellow with kindness and respect.
The thought of hating a man just because he is non-white is thankfully, beyond my comprehension.
Neither do I possess any great affinity with foreigners no matter what colour their skin.
Yes, I do understand racial politics and yes, technically I accept that we northern Europeans are all one people and ethnic group, but it’s just too big a concept for me and I fear for most Britons too.
My kinsmen are those of my immediate, tangible tribe, the Scots, the Welsh and the English and to a certain extent the Irish.
The political manifestation of this, our ‘United Kingdom’, is more than enough to have to deal with without daydreaming of a pan-European or worldwide ‘white national identity’.
Let’s be honest: most Scots, Welsh and Ulster patriots harbour to varying degrees a mild hostility or suspicion towards the English.
This ‘soft resentment’ is not in any way hatred, but it is an unspoken (in front of our English comrades) reality that most Celts do their best to mask.
It is not a malignant thing but merely a mechanism of very small nations to resist assimilation into the gigantic neighbour next door.
This is not a sign of a weak union - indeed the Celtic nations of the UK have always had far higher numbers of volunteers when called upon to defend the political entity of the UK and far higher casualty rates.
So our commitment to the union despite our national differences is beyond question and our integrity towards the political idea of a United Kingdom, beyond reproach.
After three hundred years of hard work keeping our own nations together one can see the difficulties in attempting to realise the pipe-dream of white European unity.
In the real world and every decade spent pursuing a united ethno /political pipe dream further enhances the neglect we have shown to building our own indigenous community cohesiveness to the point that we now fail to interact as a community at all in many parts of this country.
Our political focus is, and must be, purely and entirely ‘national’.
Many Britons no longer even know their neighbours. This in turn is facilitating the invaders easy takeover of our land and adding to our peoples’ feelings of isolation and powerlessness that manifests itself in unprecedented ‘white flight’ all over the country.
Who in the world fifty years ago would have believed that in a few decades’ dozens of British towns would have fallen to Bangladeshi and Pakistani invaders?
Who would have even considered that millions, yes millions, of English, Welsh and Scots citizens would have been displaced and put to flight from the streets and towns of their forefathers by hordes of uneducated third world peasants?
And who on earth would have believed that all this could have befallen the British without the threat of gun or bomb?
Nobody in their right mind would have envisaged that the British, in their millions, would have fled the field before firing a single shot in defence of their homes and towns?
This is how weakened we have become, yet those millions who have been driven out of their homes still find the ‘nationalist’ ethos and product so unattractive that they refuse to engage with us.
Surely it is time to rethink our entire approach and attitude if we are ever to dare hope of survival, let alone victory.
It is time for radical thinking and even more radical actions if we are to build any sort of cohesive resistance in the few short remaining years.
My proposition is that we must use those shared cultural experiences and historical frameworks found in abundance within our Christian heritage to unite our people and to provide a ‘broad church’ of consensus and resistance to a threat that is in essence, a religious one: Islam.
To consistently use the race card as a rallying cry has consistently failed, only a fool refuses to learn his lesson and I am no fool.
I once witnessed a discussion between a scientific professor and a lowly salesman - the salesman was trying to convince the boffin that people respond in certain ways dependant of their cultural and collective historical experiences.
The salesman argued that even at a basic level, if something looks exotic or different it will naturally be rejected by people.
The professor strongly disagreed and thought that people these days were so modern and sophisticated that they would embrace the strange, unfamiliar or exotic without question.
So, to settle the matter the salesman took some everyday foods and some odourless food dye and made some green chocolate, red butter and offered it to the academics’ students (who were all ever so sophisticated and devoted to modernity) and the results were interesting.
Not one of the students liked the look of the food and few would even try them.
The ones that did try them, rejected them, despite knowing that the only change was in the colour.
This proved that despite our sophisticated, modern societies, human nature remains the same: we reject out of hand the unfamiliar even when we know it is okay in reality.
Therefore we must package our message in familiar language using recognisable packaging, trusted trademarks and established recognised branding.
I personally can think of no better packaging or branding for our message of National Survival than the plurality of the English (British) Christianity that deeply permeates the spiritual and civic consciousness of our sense of nationhood and ethnicity. Can you?
Still don’t believe me that our entire national ethos and existence is grounded in the firm foundations of masculine Christianity?
Please do something for me that may challenge your thought patterns of what it means to be ‘British’ and especially ‘English’.

Who are we British? Part 3 of 3
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 2: Jim Dowson B.Th
In the first part of my paper examining who we are and what made us and just why nationalism has spectacularly failed to engage all but the tiniest proportion of our people despite circumstances that should make nationalism a first choice for millions.
My main proposition was, and is, that patriotic politics (nationalism), has failed miserably because its ethos (real or perceived) is rooted in a European model of racial nationalist expression which is an alien and foreign product and a most un-appealing ideology to us Brits for many reasons, not least of which is its intrinsic rejection of our own rich and ancient Christian heritage (real or perceived).
In the first part of this paper I was deliberately provocative in challenging the ‘nationalist mind-set’ by showing how overwhelmingly their ideas of what constitutes a ‘patriot’ had been rejected for over half a century, but still many nationalist leaders bang the same old busted drum, never attracting, only repelling, fresh generations of our beleaguered people.
Many critics will no doubt immediately brand me a Christian fundamentalist or race traitor with an agenda. Well, this is partly true, but the critics offer very little reasoned, researched or balanced arguments against my points.
Indeed, many nationalists contend that people like me, who use Christian language and references, are hopelessly out of kilter with the mainstream.
These sentiments only reinforce my premise that it is nationalism (especially the more racially vocal type), in its current manifestations, that is out of touch, irrelevant, mysterious and deeply unattractive to most British patriots.
Recently, a respected opinion poll cited that 40% of British children these days do not know the ‘Lord’s Prayer’ as opposed to only 10% not knowing this thirty five years ago.
This interesting news has stirred up church leaders and annoyed many religious people and indeed many nationalists have used this study as ammunition against me and my opinions.
However, let us for a moment ponder these figures: 40% of our kids DON’T know the Lord’s Prayer, but an incredible 60% actually DO KNOW IT!
What percentage of our children, even those from nationalist parents know what the ‘14 words’ stand for, or what ZOG means or what the NWO stands for or what we mean by white racial nationalism?
Right or wrong, these are the facts and we would be foolish in the extreme to ignore such an obvious communal creed and common bond still so vibrant within our young people.
The same study threw up another interesting point: more children NOW think God and religion is important than their parent’s generation, this despite a drop in church attendance over the period.
This is a fascinating snippet of information and needs some very deep thought and consideration.
Could this be a reaction against their parents’ consumer-based lifestyle over the last twenty years?
Could the ‘baby boom’ generations mantra of free love, their replacement of God with consumerism, be coming to an end?
Has a fifty year social anomaly now run its course? Who knows, but I think it is entirely possible.
You see humans, all humans, need something bigger than themselves to ‘buy into’ - the baby boomers merely replaced their forefathers’ ancient stone and stained glassed ‘communal’ landmarks with Bluewater, the Arundale Centre and a thousand other shopping centre temples to the new consumer gods of Asda, Tesco, Next and JJB sports.
The 1940s generation was sold the idea that individualism was the new path to enlightenment and this human salvation could be brought about by embracing the glittering new deities of personal wealth and consumerism.
Also important to this promised route to personal and social Nirvana was the total rejection of the collective and familiar cultural icons and traditional mores that for centuries acted as the glue that held together our once strong communities, extended families and our collective idea of nationhood.
Let me be very clear here: I do not wish to see the nationalist movement become a full on Christian enterprise nor do I think that would work or appeal to the average Brit.
I am however, suggesting that Christianity is so deeply ingrained into the fabric of our society at every level, that we would be foolish to ignore this.
I would go further and say that our brand of Christianity is not just in the fabric of our nation, it is interwoven into every Britons cultural DNA and the collective narrative of our island race.
Cultural markers like the Lord’s Prayer are like ancient echoes that resonate deep within us and around us. Similarly our Christian architecture has shaped what we think of as the quintessential British townscape.
From the lofty parish spires we see in the distance marking out an ancient town or village, seen through the eyes of a hundred generations of our people, to the palace of Westminster, built as a gothic temple as Pugin and Barry re-defined what it was to build in a ‘British style’.
Look around you: nearly all of our Victorian town halls, railway stations and civic buildings are so ecclesiastic in appearance that they confuse many a tourist.
Even the foremost ‘temple’ to Darwinism and secular modernity, the Natural History Museum, was built in the form of a great medieval Christian cathedral.
This is why our historical faith and religious heritage is so terribly important to the idea of ‘Britishness’ and to most Britons.
It is the civic glue that binds us as a people and echoes the voices of our ancestors’ collective experiences down through the millennium and it resides deep within millions of our kinsfolk.
We have nothing else so powerful, so subliminal or so accessible that we can easily access for the benefit of our struggle and for the unification of our people in the dark days that lie ahead of us.
This cultural cement took 1,500 years to set, for fifty years the cultural Marxists have chipped away at it, as have the secular ‘national socialists’, atheist racial purists and the pagan nationalists, but our cultural Christian heritage is a powerful binding agent, not just a superficial veneer of creeds, clergy and buildings.
It is part of our national and personal DNA and can never be fully removed from us.
Indeed, give it the slightest encouragement and it will burst spectacularly into full bloom again.
Or, when faced with a spiritual/political foe such as Islam, our ancient faith, (cultural or personal), shall rise up in a most masculine and aggressive format in defence of the host, the Nation that nurtured and adapted it to our specific requirements as a people.
The faith of our fathers is not dead - it merely sleeps within us and may well be awakened by the invaders ‘Adhan’ call to prayer from the forest of Minarets that now populate our landscape.
It shocks and exasperates me that so many patriots and nationalists fail to recognise or accept this and still continue in their belief that people like me are out of touch.

WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 1: Jim Dowson B.Th, Belfast 24/3/2012
Recently I read an article attacking Britain First in general and me in particular. I am sure you can imagine that I am no stranger to criticism, most of which is baseless or from the minds of the seriously disturbed.
However, this latest criticism was different: it was genuine in intent and from someone who was seriously concerned about my personal viewpoints and the “damage” my mindset may do to “his” vision of “nationalism”.
This got me thinking about the whole nationalist “genre”, its monumental failure over the years to engage with the British public in any real or meaningful way and its failure to attract anything more than a miniscule membership base.
We should remember that several ‘pro-life’ groups in this country have paid up memberships of over 40,000, while the BNP at their height never managed to attract more than 14,000 members.
I quote these figures to emphasize the reality that eludes so many nationalists that we are a fringe of a fringe of a rump on the edges of the margins of political or cultural life in this country. Yet many still talk as if nationalism is on the brink of a major breakthrough if only we could rid ourselves of Nick Griffin and a few other cranks. This sentiment is madness.
There are individual church congregations with larger memberships than the BNP. One single church in London has over 20,000 members, with several thousand in attendance every Sunday.
In Belfast, Paul Golding and I attended a church which every week has around 3,000 ‘bums on seats’. Again, I quote these figures to give some perspective to the nationalist dilemma and to introduce some realism to the delusional position of so many good patriots and nationalist stalwarts.
Now I want to return to the criticisms of myself. The basis of my critics prose was the simple proposition that I was clinically insane, mad and un-hinged (a position many would concur with). What was the basis of the diagnosis? My religion and faith. Yes, the critic was convinced of my mental instability because I, like another five million Britons, still attend church once a week (although only 900,000 attend the C of E), pray and read the Bible.
My critic was further appalled by my total and unshakable opposition to slaughtering our next British generation in the womb - yes I am implacably anti-abortion. He was also repelled by my opposition to ‘gay marriage’, homosexual adoption and a few other issues that a generation ago would have been opposed by almost all of our people.
I wonder if my critical friend knows that even if you add together the combined attendance at every football ground in the four divisions in England and those in Scotland, Ulster and Wales, football fans on a Saturday are still outnumbered 5 to 1 by Christians attending church the following day.
In this country, especially in nationalist circles many have the perception that football is so huge that it may provide a great recruiting platform for nationalist groups and that is why the NF, BNP and EDL put so much time into leafleting and selling papers outside football stadiums.
However, the false perception that football is the largest social event where OUR people gather and that the Christian church is tiny, irrelevant and almost defunct has steered the entire movement down a blind alley and resulted in the self imposed ghettoizing of Our Cause and has robbed us of several generations of decent, law abiding, clean living, capable people who would have been very useful to the furthermost of our agenda.
How many times have nationalists targeted Christians as we target football fans? I hear the reader ask, “If the Christians are so numerous and patriotic, where are they then?” A good question and one I can answer from my own personal experience.
When I was 16 I was deeply involved in the loyalist struggle in Ulster. I also flirted with the NF, even spending time at the HQ in Pawsons Rd, after being ejected from college for putting up anti-IRA NF stickers all over the campus (it was a fair cop). However, even as an ‘ultra-patriot’, I found my experience in London with the NF deeply unpleasant and alien to me.
Back then I was an infrequent church goer and had very little active faith if any, but I found that within nationalism then, as now, there was a virulent anti-Christian undertone and many ‘patriots’ were obsessed by a foreign notion of nationalism, i.e. one derived from Europe and Germany in particular (these “British” patriots conveniently ignore the famous saying “National Socialism is not for export.”)
This I found repellant and more than a bit bizarre as even as a youth I fully understood the true notion of ‘Britishness’, the pomp and circumstance, the feeling that we British were a special people and our intrinsic national link especially since the reformation, of nationhood, self-reliance and our Christian heritage.
One just has to observe the opening of Parliament or the opening of a rural council meeting to see that Christian ceremony dominates the proceedings as it does our legal system and just about every institution we claim as ‘quintessentially’ British.
Yet, nationalists are blind, ambivalent or hateful towards these old landmarks that are so deeply entrenched in the British people’s narrative, thus rendering themselves and the nationalist movement a rather exotic, or, at best, a foreign body that is most unappealing to most British people, even at a superficial level.
Even when clever marketing or terrorist events drive large numbers of decent people into our ranks they quickly exit when confronted with the strange fruit of national-socialist hang-ups, cerebral ethno-politics and rabid anti Christian ideology that, unfortunately, one could sell by the pound at most NF, BNP, EDL meetings despite the widespread use of Holy symbols and phrases.
Lately, it looks as if this was changing with the EDL getting more outwardly ‘Christian’ - even Griffin started wearing a cross and demanding crosses on all BNP propaganda.
Sadly, Griffin was only pretending and the EDL/British Freedom types seem more interested in defending Israel than Britain, or running around our town centres boozed up, jumping around like immature oiks chanting football slogans at an increasingly un-phased Muslim population who could, if they wished, wipe the floor with them if it so pleased their Imams.
You see the inescapable truth is simple, Britain, our mindset, our collective memory, our institutions, community customs and our nation’s entire narrative is not just completely intertwined with Christianity but rather we and our ‘Britishness’ are a product of the Christian Faith.
From the opening of a small council meeting to the state opening of Parliament to the naming of a ship, our Christian heritage cocoons the entire proceedings.
Think of when we welcome a child into the family or when we bury our loved ones, our Christian heritage sets the tone for the social interaction and rites of passage. Indeed this heritage is so completely interwoven as to become ‘unnoticed’ by its normality for most people, but none the less, any outside observer sees this thread of Christianity in our national make up as a strong and almost unique feature of ‘The British’.
Remember, we think of our American cousins as a nation deeply influenced by faith, however, the Europeans view us Brits in a similar light yet we fail to see the woods for the trees.
For anyone who is skeptical about how attractive our Christian heritage is to our people, even on a sub-conscious level just look to the largest ‘patriot’ group around at present. The EDL! They absolutely smother their literature in extreme Christian symbolism and icons. From crusader crosses, to knights templar motto’s, all of which permeates this groups web-site, blogs, facebook pages, merchandise and literature.
Unfortunately, I fear these people are insincere in their use (or are being deceived) and have shamefully woven Zionism and multi-culturalism into OUR iconology and ancient identity, this, just like European Nationalism is foreign to us British and will ultimately be their downfall.
Nationalism has never made any significant breakthrough in this country, ever. The NF at its peak could turn out maybe 4,000 on the streets and the BNP mustered half a million votes and 14,000 members, but these are unbelievably low figures considering huge swathes of our country now resemble Bangladesh.
For many years I have been amazed by the delusions of grandeur most nationalists suffer from, an almost manic sense of self importance pervades the entire movement and a fair amount of individuals therein.
Consider these figures against nationalism: the women’s institute has 210,000 paid up members, the Labour Party in 1997 had 405,000 members, the Tories peaked under Thatcher at 3,000,000 and the twitchers charity the RSPB boasts over 1,000,000 paid members including 195,000 youth members.
Many other social groups like the Masons have over 600,000 members in England alone and most depressing of all is the ‘Caravan Club of Britain’ who enjoy a membership of 375,000 households producing an annual turnover in excess of £100 million and employing 800 staff. To be frank, many golf clubs have achieved far larger memberships than any ‘nationalist’ group, until now.
These figures should put a sense of reality to our movement - we are so small it beggars belief, but why? After all we have been pushing our message for decades yet we are smaller than some vintage car clubs.
Well, I know exactly why and I shall say so - someone has to. We are small because our product is an unattractive foreign import, even in what most nationalists would regard as ‘moderate’ manifestations.
Successive nationalist leaders in this country have presented to the great British public an ideology fleshed out in the European theatre which contains ingredients alien to OUR culture and historical collective memory and social experience.
20th century British nationalism has also carried a virulent strain of anti-Christian malevolence. We see this clearly in the nationalist propensity to ridicule the faith of our fathers these 1,500 years in favour of various manifestations and interpretations of Germanic gods, or the pagan beliefs of our people thousands of years previous. Mention Odin, Thor or the Green man at most nationalist meetings and one will quickly be engaged in a friendly conversation. However, spout out the name of Jesus Christ and cries of “Jewish import, foreign, middle eastern rubbish” will soon fill your ears.
I know that devout, church attending Christians are not in the numbers they once enjoyed but most British people are so deeply entwined with cultural Christianity they don’t even know it by large. On the other hand there are still 5 million regular church goers in this country and the cultural Christians number in the tens of millions.
Most Britons may not articulate their ingrained national Christian identity in an outward fashion but we see their position being manifest in their almost unanimous decision to reject our nationalist message in its current and long standing format.
The DNA of English/British Christianity was, and still is, who we are. A man may leave the army after 20 years service and be far away from his discarded uniform but to any observer one can see by his mannerisms, behaviour and walk that ‘he might be out of the army, but the army as never been out of him’. And so it is with us and our Christian social and collective experience. We are what our history has made us and to jettison this will render us irrelevant - just ask the BNP or NF.
From Mosley to Tyndall, Webster to Griffin, all have tried to impose a north European national socialist atheist or (pagan) ideology on the British patriotic constituents within our population with very little success. Even today we British are far more insular, parochial and patriotic than any of our European neighbours yet they have built huge nationalist movements and we, sadly, have utterly failed.
The answer is not to continue on with the failed strategy of trying to import that which works in Europe, the answer lies within us, in our unique cultural and social interaction and collective historical experiences. Our task is to tap into the existing rich cultural DNA that permeates our lives and that includes celebrating/exploiting our Christian heritage and the social markers that regulate our society.
For those who think we have no such things, ponder these social regulators: Christmas, Good Friday, Easter, Saints Days, Pancake Tuesday, All Souls (Halloween), baptisms, christenings, weddings, confirmations, funerals.
To those that doubt the efficacy and near total domination of Christianity on every facet of our society need only look to any state occasion, be it Parliament, the Lords, Royal Weddings/Funerals, Council meetings Military displays especially Remembrance Day and even many sporting events.
All are set within the rich and well practices ceremonies that involve us all in some kind of collective/tribal community action and contemplation.
I suppose what I am alluding to is this: whether you like it or not, most if not all of our private and collective benchmarks in our native life are marked and regulated by centuries old traditions of Christianity. It’s part of our British DNA. On the surface, our taste for religion may ebb and flow but I suggest that scratch a British patriot and his or her Christian identity (spiritual or cultural) will shine through with blinding radiance and be defended with jealous pride.
European patriots have always had to supplement their faith with a political way to manifest their national pride as their majority faith was subservient to a foreign power. However, since the reformation our British nation, patriotic identity and pride have been completely immersed in our peculiar and defiant faith.
Indeed that was what separated us from Europe these last 500 years and was the driving force behind the many conflicts we endured, (although please don’t think for one moment I am being sectarian, (Been there, its not a good place) I am merely trying to explain our peculiar national and historical experience.
Today we live in a new dispensation where particular brands of Christianity are far less important and those of the old European variety need not be kept at bay by ‘Puritan England’, but nonetheless we have been foolish in trying to over-write our own centuries old collective DNA with a European code. It has not, and could not ever have worked, not now, not ever, it’s just not who WE are.
Getting back to the original criticism of me: I stand fast on my sincere beliefs and my opposition of such social cancers as gay marriage, gay adoption and the butchering of the next generation of Brits by abortion. If that repels some nationalists or patriots I make absolutely no concession whatsoever and would challenge them in their claims to love this nation and our people.
I want to help our people survive and to build a better, cleaner, more just society and to that goal I am fully committed. Surviving the coming apocalyptic struggle as an atheistic, gay adopting, child murdering, degenerate nation would be the final insult to our ancestors and long gone heroes. It would be better for such a nation of people to have never existed at all. Even worse and far more unmanly and cowardly would be surviving as a nation of converts to Islam.
Make no mistake, there are many of the ruling elite and sadly many Racial nationalist's who would readily convert but for different reasons. One to retain wealth and influence, and the other for more nefarious reasons.
Several well respected nationalist's have said to me over the years,’ better a surviving white Muslim Britain than no Britain at all’. I utterly and completely reject this abomination and suggest this back up ‘survival strategy’ would weaken our resolve to the point of assured defeat.
I personally have no survival exit strategy and hold fast to the principle: better to fight to the last man, women and child (I say this with 4 bountiful grandchildren in mind) than give up one square inch of OUR country to the Islamic invaders.
Better we are remembered in history as the people who could not be tamed, intimidated or conquered than those who put up a bit of a fight then conformed in order to save our skins.
Because of its evil and suffocating nature and not because of our intolerance we can never compromise with Islam, nor can we ever come to a mutually respectful arrangement in the future, such a temporary solution would always spell the end for us.
This paper is the first of three that I have written in order to try and clarify our current situation. By understanding where we came from it may just be possible to map out the direction of where we should be going to ensure our future generations a secured future.
Who are we British? Part 2 of 3
Who are we British? Part 3 of 3
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 1: Jim Dowson B.Th, Belfast 24/3/2012
Recently I read an article attacking Britain First in general and me in particular. I am sure you can imagine that I am no stranger to criticism, most of which is baseless or from the minds of the seriously disturbed.
However, this latest criticism was different: it was genuine in intent and from someone who was seriously concerned about my personal viewpoints and the “damage” my mindset may do to “his” vision of “nationalism”.
This got me thinking about the whole nationalist “genre”, its monumental failure over the years to engage with the British public in any real or meaningful way and its failure to attract anything more than a miniscule membership base.
We should remember that several ‘pro-life’ groups in this country have paid up memberships of over 40,000, while the BNP at their height never managed to attract more than 14,000 members.
I quote these figures to emphasize the reality that eludes so many nationalists that we are a fringe of a fringe of a rump on the edges of the margins of political or cultural life in this country. Yet many still talk as if nationalism is on the brink of a major breakthrough if only we could rid ourselves of Nick Griffin and a few other cranks. This sentiment is madness.
There are individual church congregations with larger memberships than the BNP. One single church in London has over 20,000 members, with several thousand in attendance every Sunday.
In Belfast, Paul Golding and I attended a church which every week has around 3,000 ‘bums on seats’. Again, I quote these figures to give some perspective to the nationalist dilemma and to introduce some realism to the delusional position of so many good patriots and nationalist stalwarts.
Now I want to return to the criticisms of myself. The basis of my critics prose was the simple proposition that I was clinically insane, mad and un-hinged (a position many would concur with). What was the basis of the diagnosis? My religion and faith. Yes, the critic was convinced of my mental instability because I, like another five million Britons, still attend church once a week (although only 900,000 attend the C of E), pray and read the Bible.

You see the inescapable truth is simple, Britain, our mindset, our collective memory, our institutions, community customs and our nation’s entire narrative is not just completely intertwined with Christianity but rather we and our ‘Britishness’ are a product of the Christian Faith.
From the opening of a small council meeting to the state opening of Parliament to the naming of a ship, our Christian heritage cocoons the entire proceedings.
Think of when we welcome a child into the family or when we bury our loved ones, our Christian heritage sets the tone for the social interaction and rites of passage. Indeed this heritage is so completely interwoven as to become ‘unnoticed’ by its normality for most people, but none the less, any outside observer sees this thread of Christianity in our national make up as a strong and almost unique feature of ‘The British’.
Remember, we think of our American cousins as a nation deeply influenced by faith, however, the Europeans view us Brits in a similar light yet we fail to see the woods for the trees.
For anyone who is skeptical about how attractive our Christian heritage is to our people, even on a sub-conscious level just look to the largest ‘patriot’ group around at present. The EDL! They absolutely smother their literature in extreme Christian symbolism and icons. From crusader crosses, to knights templar motto’s, all of which permeates this groups web-site, blogs, facebook pages, merchandise and literature.
Unfortunately, I fear these people are insincere in their use (or are being deceived) and have shamefully woven Zionism and multi-culturalism into OUR iconology and ancient identity, this, just like European Nationalism is foreign to us British and will ultimately be their downfall.
Nationalism has never made any significant breakthrough in this country, ever. The NF at its peak could turn out maybe 4,000 on the streets and the BNP mustered half a million votes and 14,000 members, but these are unbelievably low figures considering huge swathes of our country now resemble Bangladesh.
For many years I have been amazed by the delusions of grandeur most nationalists suffer from, an almost manic sense of self importance pervades the entire movement and a fair amount of individuals therein.
Consider these figures against nationalism: the women’s institute has 210,000 paid up members, the Labour Party in 1997 had 405,000 members, the Tories peaked under Thatcher at 3,000,000 and the twitchers charity the RSPB boasts over 1,000,000 paid members including 195,000 youth members.
Many other social groups like the Masons have over 600,000 members in England alone and most depressing of all is the ‘Caravan Club of Britain’ who enjoy a membership of 375,000 households producing an annual turnover in excess of £100 million and employing 800 staff. To be frank, many golf clubs have achieved far larger memberships than any ‘nationalist’ group, until now.
These figures should put a sense of reality to our movement - we are so small it beggars belief, but why? After all we have been pushing our message for decades yet we are smaller than some vintage car clubs.
Well, I know exactly why and I shall say so - someone has to. We are small because our product is an unattractive foreign import, even in what most nationalists would regard as ‘moderate’ manifestations.
Successive nationalist leaders in this country have presented to the great British public an ideology fleshed out in the European theatre which contains ingredients alien to OUR culture and historical collective memory and social experience.
20th century British nationalism has also carried a virulent strain of anti-Christian malevolence. We see this clearly in the nationalist propensity to ridicule the faith of our fathers these 1,500 years in favour of various manifestations and interpretations of Germanic gods, or the pagan beliefs of our people thousands of years previous. Mention Odin, Thor or the Green man at most nationalist meetings and one will quickly be engaged in a friendly conversation. However, spout out the name of Jesus Christ and cries of “Jewish import, foreign, middle eastern rubbish” will soon fill your ears.
I know that devout, church attending Christians are not in the numbers they once enjoyed but most British people are so deeply entwined with cultural Christianity they don’t even know it by large. On the other hand there are still 5 million regular church goers in this country and the cultural Christians number in the tens of millions.
Most Britons may not articulate their ingrained national Christian identity in an outward fashion but we see their position being manifest in their almost unanimous decision to reject our nationalist message in its current and long standing format.
The DNA of English/British Christianity was, and still is, who we are. A man may leave the army after 20 years service and be far away from his discarded uniform but to any observer one can see by his mannerisms, behaviour and walk that ‘he might be out of the army, but the army as never been out of him’. And so it is with us and our Christian social and collective experience. We are what our history has made us and to jettison this will render us irrelevant - just ask the BNP or NF.
From Mosley to Tyndall, Webster to Griffin, all have tried to impose a north European national socialist atheist or (pagan) ideology on the British patriotic constituents within our population with very little success. Even today we British are far more insular, parochial and patriotic than any of our European neighbours yet they have built huge nationalist movements and we, sadly, have utterly failed.
The answer is not to continue on with the failed strategy of trying to import that which works in Europe, the answer lies within us, in our unique cultural and social interaction and collective historical experiences. Our task is to tap into the existing rich cultural DNA that permeates our lives and that includes celebrating/exploiting our Christian heritage and the social markers that regulate our society.
For those who think we have no such things, ponder these social regulators: Christmas, Good Friday, Easter, Saints Days, Pancake Tuesday, All Souls (Halloween), baptisms, christenings, weddings, confirmations, funerals.
To those that doubt the efficacy and near total domination of Christianity on every facet of our society need only look to any state occasion, be it Parliament, the Lords, Royal Weddings/Funerals, Council meetings Military displays especially Remembrance Day and even many sporting events.
All are set within the rich and well practices ceremonies that involve us all in some kind of collective/tribal community action and contemplation.
I suppose what I am alluding to is this: whether you like it or not, most if not all of our private and collective benchmarks in our native life are marked and regulated by centuries old traditions of Christianity. It’s part of our British DNA. On the surface, our taste for religion may ebb and flow but I suggest that scratch a British patriot and his or her Christian identity (spiritual or cultural) will shine through with blinding radiance and be defended with jealous pride.
European patriots have always had to supplement their faith with a political way to manifest their national pride as their majority faith was subservient to a foreign power. However, since the reformation our British nation, patriotic identity and pride have been completely immersed in our peculiar and defiant faith.
Indeed that was what separated us from Europe these last 500 years and was the driving force behind the many conflicts we endured, (although please don’t think for one moment I am being sectarian, (Been there, its not a good place) I am merely trying to explain our peculiar national and historical experience.
Today we live in a new dispensation where particular brands of Christianity are far less important and those of the old European variety need not be kept at bay by ‘Puritan England’, but nonetheless we have been foolish in trying to over-write our own centuries old collective DNA with a European code. It has not, and could not ever have worked, not now, not ever, it’s just not who WE are.
Getting back to the original criticism of me: I stand fast on my sincere beliefs and my opposition of such social cancers as gay marriage, gay adoption and the butchering of the next generation of Brits by abortion. If that repels some nationalists or patriots I make absolutely no concession whatsoever and would challenge them in their claims to love this nation and our people.
I want to help our people survive and to build a better, cleaner, more just society and to that goal I am fully committed. Surviving the coming apocalyptic struggle as an atheistic, gay adopting, child murdering, degenerate nation would be the final insult to our ancestors and long gone heroes. It would be better for such a nation of people to have never existed at all. Even worse and far more unmanly and cowardly would be surviving as a nation of converts to Islam.
Make no mistake, there are many of the ruling elite and sadly many Racial nationalist's who would readily convert but for different reasons. One to retain wealth and influence, and the other for more nefarious reasons.
Several well respected nationalist's have said to me over the years,’ better a surviving white Muslim Britain than no Britain at all’. I utterly and completely reject this abomination and suggest this back up ‘survival strategy’ would weaken our resolve to the point of assured defeat.
I personally have no survival exit strategy and hold fast to the principle: better to fight to the last man, women and child (I say this with 4 bountiful grandchildren in mind) than give up one square inch of OUR country to the Islamic invaders.
Better we are remembered in history as the people who could not be tamed, intimidated or conquered than those who put up a bit of a fight then conformed in order to save our skins.
Because of its evil and suffocating nature and not because of our intolerance we can never compromise with Islam, nor can we ever come to a mutually respectful arrangement in the future, such a temporary solution would always spell the end for us.
This paper is the first of three that I have written in order to try and clarify our current situation. By understanding where we came from it may just be possible to map out the direction of where we should be going to ensure our future generations a secured future.
Who are we British? Part 2 of 3
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 2: Jim Dowson B.Th
In the first part of my paper examining who we are and what made us and just why nationalism has spectacularly failed to engage all but the tiniest proportion of our people despite circumstances that should make nationalism a first choice for millions.
My main proposition was, and is, that patriotic politics (nationalism), has failed miserably because its ethos (real or perceived) is rooted in a European model of racial nationalist expression which is an alien and foreign product and a most un-appealing ideology to us Brits for many reasons, not least of which is its intrinsic rejection of our own rich and ancient Christian heritage (real or perceived).
In the first part of this paper I was deliberately provocative in challenging the ‘nationalist mind-set’ by showing how overwhelmingly their ideas of what constitutes a ‘patriot’ had been rejected for over half a century, but still many nationalist leaders bang the same old busted drum, never attracting, only repelling, fresh generations of our beleaguered people.
Many critics will no doubt immediately brand me a Christian fundamentalist or race traitor with an agenda. Well, this is partly true, but the critics offer very little reasoned, researched or balanced arguments against my points.
Indeed, many nationalists contend that people like me, who use Christian language and references, are hopelessly out of kilter with the mainstream.
These sentiments only reinforce my premise that it is nationalism (especially the more racially vocal type), in its current manifestations, that is out of touch, irrelevant, mysterious and deeply unattractive to most British patriots.
Recently, a respected opinion poll cited that 40% of British children these days do not know the ‘Lord’s Prayer’ as opposed to only 10% not knowing this thirty five years ago.
This interesting news has stirred up church leaders and annoyed many religious people and indeed many nationalists have used this study as ammunition against me and my opinions.
However, let us for a moment ponder these figures: 40% of our kids DON’T know the Lord’s Prayer, but an incredible 60% actually DO KNOW IT!
What percentage of our children, even those from nationalist parents know what the ‘14 words’ stand for, or what ZOG means or what the NWO stands for or what we mean by white racial nationalism?
Right or wrong, these are the facts and we would be foolish in the extreme to ignore such an obvious communal creed and common bond still so vibrant within our young people.
The same study threw up another interesting point: more children NOW think God and religion is important than their parent’s generation, this despite a drop in church attendance over the period.
This is a fascinating snippet of information and needs some very deep thought and consideration.
Could this be a reaction against their parents’ consumer-based lifestyle over the last twenty years?
Could the ‘baby boom’ generations mantra of free love, their replacement of God with consumerism, be coming to an end?
Has a fifty year social anomaly now run its course? Who knows, but I think it is entirely possible.
You see humans, all humans, need something bigger than themselves to ‘buy into’ - the baby boomers merely replaced their forefathers’ ancient stone and stained glassed ‘communal’ landmarks with Bluewater, the Arundale Centre and a thousand other shopping centre temples to the new consumer gods of Asda, Tesco, Next and JJB sports.
The 1940s generation was sold the idea that individualism was the new path to enlightenment and this human salvation could be brought about by embracing the glittering new deities of personal wealth and consumerism.
Also important to this promised route to personal and social Nirvana was the total rejection of the collective and familiar cultural icons and traditional mores that for centuries acted as the glue that held together our once strong communities, extended families and our collective idea of nationhood.
Let me be very clear here: I do not wish to see the nationalist movement become a full on Christian enterprise nor do I think that would work or appeal to the average Brit.
I am however, suggesting that Christianity is so deeply ingrained into the fabric of our society at every level, that we would be foolish to ignore this.
I would go further and say that our brand of Christianity is not just in the fabric of our nation, it is interwoven into every Britons cultural DNA and the collective narrative of our island race.
Cultural markers like the Lord’s Prayer are like ancient echoes that resonate deep within us and around us. Similarly our Christian architecture has shaped what we think of as the quintessential British townscape.
From the lofty parish spires we see in the distance marking out an ancient town or village, seen through the eyes of a hundred generations of our people, to the palace of Westminster, built as a gothic temple as Pugin and Barry re-defined what it was to build in a ‘British style’.
Look around you: nearly all of our Victorian town halls, railway stations and civic buildings are so ecclesiastic in appearance that they confuse many a tourist.
Even the foremost ‘temple’ to Darwinism and secular modernity, the Natural History Museum, was built in the form of a great medieval Christian cathedral.
This is why our historical faith and religious heritage is so terribly important to the idea of ‘Britishness’ and to most Britons.
It is the civic glue that binds us as a people and echoes the voices of our ancestors’ collective experiences down through the millennium and it resides deep within millions of our kinsfolk.
We have nothing else so powerful, so subliminal or so accessible that we can easily access for the benefit of our struggle and for the unification of our people in the dark days that lie ahead of us.
This cultural cement took 1,500 years to set, for fifty years the cultural Marxists have chipped away at it, as have the secular ‘national socialists’, atheist racial purists and the pagan nationalists, but our cultural Christian heritage is a powerful binding agent, not just a superficial veneer of creeds, clergy and buildings.
It is part of our national and personal DNA and can never be fully removed from us.
Indeed, give it the slightest encouragement and it will burst spectacularly into full bloom again.
Or, when faced with a spiritual/political foe such as Islam, our ancient faith, (cultural or personal), shall rise up in a most masculine and aggressive format in defence of the host, the Nation that nurtured and adapted it to our specific requirements as a people.
The faith of our fathers is not dead - it merely sleeps within us and may well be awakened by the invaders ‘Adhan’ call to prayer from the forest of Minarets that now populate our landscape.
It shocks and exasperates me that so many patriots and nationalists fail to recognise or accept this and still continue in their belief that people like me are out of touch.
Please try and find the program “How God Made the English” and you will see what I mean.
http://www.pixotube.com/how-god-made-the-english-s01e03/
History has told us time and again that no secular society has ever succeeded in quashing a people with a deeply held faith, even when in the minority.
This is where the Frankfurt schools ideology has gone wrong.
Yes they managed to secularize almost the entire top tier of our political structures and society.
But they had not, and by their own secularism, could not, ever had envisaged how easily a vibrant, unified faith community like Islam could then take over a society that the Frankfurters had stripped bare of its natural defences.
It is not only us that now lie weak and prostrate, it is the Marxists too, as they will soon find out as Islam rises in the countries that they have left ruined and vulnerable.
However, this disaster may carry the seeds of our own salvation too: if a highly motivated and unified community like Islam can sweep aside the PC and politically effeminate ruling classes so can we.
Indeed Islam may show us the way ahead.
Militant Islam may re-ignite our collective and civic consciousness and notions of nationhood which, in my opinion, can only be found in a shared national, historical Christian context.
In the 2010 census 46 million Britons described themselves as ‘Christian’, and over 5 million get up, dress in their best and make the effort to go to their local Church every Sunday.
To ignore such a committed mass movement and spiritual reality within our own people is national suicide.
After 80 years of internal subversion many church goers are indeed bleeding heart liberals, but the vast majorities are not.
In fact, secular liberalism is far more widespread than Christian liberalism and I suggest that besides the race issue, many nationalists are far more socially liberal than most Christians would dare to be.
The vast majority of Christians in the UK are deeply hostile to Islam, unbridled immigration, the EU, ‘gay rights’, the PC lobby and many other nationalist common causes.
Most are also opposed to thuggish behaviour, divorce, sexual promiscuity, drunkenness, foul language and the football hooligan mentality. These, unfortunately are some of the social ills that have dogged nationalism for years with little or no effort spent in trying to address these issues.
More importantly, Christians, like most fellow Britons are fairly xenophobic, however they are also instinctively anti-racist in the sense that they will broach no discussion on the merits of a man depending on his racial group or skin colour or ethnic identity alone.
We Brits tend to judge a man on who he is, rather than what he is.
Yes, most of us have a moan about the foreigners down the road but our ingrained sense of fair play and personal respect for our fellow man prevents millions from giving perceived blanket racist groups our support.
I cite the NF and BNP as classic examples of this moral and national dichotomy for our people.
Fair play, decency and reasonable tolerance are sacred cows for most Britons, especially Christians, as is their absolute abhorrence of anything that is, or could be classified as belonging to the school of Nazism or Communism.
In fact, to even discuss such things among Christians often results in immediate rejection of the bearer and whatever cause (no matter how noble it may be) he or she may be espousing.
Right or wrong, Frankfurt influenced or not, this is how it is and we do not have another eighty years to re-educate millions of natural patriots on the nuances of racial differences and the mitochondrial markers in the inferior peoples of the world.
Now, I must be brutally honest and up front here: as a patriot whose childhood was deeply rooted in the Orange/Loyalist culture, which is uncompromisingly and fiercely patriotic, I knew virtually no one in our world that liked the BNP or NF.
Yes, some of us , myself included, flirted with so called ‘Nationalism’ of the mainly English BNP/NF variety in our youth, but almost all of us were totally repelled and alienated by the often intense pro-Nazi/white power/ZOG/pagan obsessed ethos of many within the movement.
For a time I lived and worked in London, during which the Brixton riots happened and around then several whites had also been butchered by blacks.
As a committed and heavily involved loyalist my only reference to such massive attacks on a community was to strike back, but all I saw was the natural anger, rage and tribal need to survive being stifled by endless, inane political ramblings every day in the NF’s Pawsons Road HQ or in the Swan pub up the road.
Lots of big talk, intellectual talk, stupid talk, but absolutely no action.
Englishmen and women were dying, our capital city was being destroyed, but the only response from the nationalist leaders were delusional ten hour discussions on ‘white superiority’ and electoral daydreams of securing a modicum of power through the ballot box.
There is nothing superior about a people who refuse to defend themselves or exact retribution from those who would seek to destroy them and their children’s birth right.
The political system was and still is used as a tool to lock up and channel our national outrage and our youthful energies and strength into safe and controlled neutralising political safety nets.
Despite many nationalists now understanding this we yet again we see our youth in the form of the potentially revolutionary EDL now being corralled into the futile political system.
This will neutralise any threat they may have posed and will end in failure just like the NF/BNP before them.
The EDL/BFP will probably be even bigger than their NF/BNP predecessors in order for the state to keep a lid on the increasingly deteriorating ethnic/political situation in Britain.
Alas, it will be nothing more than a state sponsored holding pen and intelligence gathering operation for the best of our young patriots and that is the real tragedy, for this is our last generation before Islamic Armageddon in this Country.
To be completely clear, I personally despise the ideologies and practical applications of much of German National Socialism and I have little time for the real Nazis, but I reserve my real disgust and bitter contempt for the crackpot wannabe Nazi clowns who have caused our noble Cause to be so despised in the eyes of the British public for over sixty years.
It is we British who are a special and ‘chosen people’, not the Germans!
I am no multi-cult ‘civic’ nationalist, I assure you and I care little for the Jews and the state of Israel or their Palestinian foes (a plague on all their houses) but I am also no Nazi apologist, admirer or fan.
We have legions of our own heroes and have no need to go looking for European ones.
Nor am I a blanket racist, I have an affinity with all of mankind but I prefer and wish to preserve my own tribe and nation more than any other factor.
I treat all humans, black, brown, yellow with kindness and respect.
The thought of hating a man just because he is non-white is thankfully, beyond my comprehension.
Neither do I possess any great affinity with foreigners no matter what colour their skin.
Yes, I do understand racial politics and yes, technically I accept that we northern Europeans are all one people and ethnic group, but it’s just too big a concept for me and I fear for most Britons too.
My kinsmen are those of my immediate, tangible tribe, the Scots, the Welsh and the English and to a certain extent the Irish.
The political manifestation of this, our ‘United Kingdom’, is more than enough to have to deal with without daydreaming of a pan-European or worldwide ‘white national identity’.
Let’s be honest: most Scots, Welsh and Ulster patriots harbour to varying degrees a mild hostility or suspicion towards the English.
This ‘soft resentment’ is not in any way hatred, but it is an unspoken (in front of our English comrades) reality that most Celts do their best to mask.
It is not a malignant thing but merely a mechanism of very small nations to resist assimilation into the gigantic neighbour next door.
This is not a sign of a weak union - indeed the Celtic nations of the UK have always had far higher numbers of volunteers when called upon to defend the political entity of the UK and far higher casualty rates.
So our commitment to the union despite our national differences is beyond question and our integrity towards the political idea of a United Kingdom, beyond reproach.
After three hundred years of hard work keeping our own nations together one can see the difficulties in attempting to realise the pipe-dream of white European unity.
In the real world and every decade spent pursuing a united ethno /political pipe dream further enhances the neglect we have shown to building our own indigenous community cohesiveness to the point that we now fail to interact as a community at all in many parts of this country.
Our political focus is, and must be, purely and entirely ‘national’.
Many Britons no longer even know their neighbours. This in turn is facilitating the invaders easy takeover of our land and adding to our peoples’ feelings of isolation and powerlessness that manifests itself in unprecedented ‘white flight’ all over the country.
Who in the world fifty years ago would have believed that in a few decades’ dozens of British towns would have fallen to Bangladeshi and Pakistani invaders?
Who would have even considered that millions, yes millions, of English, Welsh and Scots citizens would have been displaced and put to flight from the streets and towns of their forefathers by hordes of uneducated third world peasants?
And who on earth would have believed that all this could have befallen the British without the threat of gun or bomb?
Nobody in their right mind would have envisaged that the British, in their millions, would have fled the field before firing a single shot in defence of their homes and towns?
This is how weakened we have become, yet those millions who have been driven out of their homes still find the ‘nationalist’ ethos and product so unattractive that they refuse to engage with us.
Surely it is time to rethink our entire approach and attitude if we are ever to dare hope of survival, let alone victory.
It is time for radical thinking and even more radical actions if we are to build any sort of cohesive resistance in the few short remaining years.
My proposition is that we must use those shared cultural experiences and historical frameworks found in abundance within our Christian heritage to unite our people and to provide a ‘broad church’ of consensus and resistance to a threat that is in essence, a religious one: Islam.
To consistently use the race card as a rallying cry has consistently failed, only a fool refuses to learn his lesson and I am no fool.
I once witnessed a discussion between a scientific professor and a lowly salesman - the salesman was trying to convince the boffin that people respond in certain ways dependant of their cultural and collective historical experiences.
The salesman argued that even at a basic level, if something looks exotic or different it will naturally be rejected by people.
The professor strongly disagreed and thought that people these days were so modern and sophisticated that they would embrace the strange, unfamiliar or exotic without question.
So, to settle the matter the salesman took some everyday foods and some odourless food dye and made some green chocolate, red butter and offered it to the academics’ students (who were all ever so sophisticated and devoted to modernity) and the results were interesting.
Not one of the students liked the look of the food and few would even try them.
The ones that did try them, rejected them, despite knowing that the only change was in the colour.
This proved that despite our sophisticated, modern societies, human nature remains the same: we reject out of hand the unfamiliar even when we know it is okay in reality.
Therefore we must package our message in familiar language using recognisable packaging, trusted trademarks and established recognised branding.
I personally can think of no better packaging or branding for our message of National Survival than the plurality of the English (British) Christianity that deeply permeates the spiritual and civic consciousness of our sense of nationhood and ethnicity. Can you?
Still don’t believe me that our entire national ethos and existence is grounded in the firm foundations of masculine Christianity?
Please do something for me that may challenge your thought patterns of what it means to be ‘British’ and especially ‘English’.

Who are we British? Part 3 of 3
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 3: Jim Dowson B.Th
Jesus said, “Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends”. John 15:13
I stand by the above statement and my friends are my Nation and people, some with faith and some with none, I make NO distinction and by deed I have in the past and will continue in the future to serve my people without any consideration of what they believe or don’t believe. With this reality in mind I invite you to read on..
In the first 2 parts of this three part thesis I had argued that our Christian heritage (not necessarily living) has been fundamental to what we call ‘The British’ our worldview, our internal outlook, indeed I suggested that the very concept of Britannia was, in the modern term ,1600 until 1900 forged by the Christian faith and our sense of unity and community and was until very recently, sustained and nourished by our national faith. This is NOT in any way an abandonment of our rich ancient, pre-history cultural legacy. As an Ulster Scot whose main families have lived within the same square mile town land for almost 400 years since returning to our homeland during the plantation. Indeed as an Ulster/Scot or Ulaid my family have lived within a 50 mile radius for the last 5000 years.
Nowhere in Europe will you find a more ancient, less diluted tribe than here, my wife, daughter-in-law and son-in-law all share multiple clan names with my own family. On the road where I live we have 4 ancient ceremonial mounds and a huge standing stone and a few miles away we have a much larger ancient ceremonial site that most families visit regularly with their kids to tell tales of the great battles for Ulster against the Gaelic men of Ireland. Even today you can see the mighty Setanta, (Cuchulainn), hero of Ulster depicted on the banners of our loyalist marching and deeply Christian orders.
The continuity is real and present for me and millions of Celts and unlike many in nationalist circles on the mainland we have no tension between our ancient non-Christian tribal heroes and our Christian present. Unlike many of my critics I have regularly and publically carried aloft the banners of our ancient folk heroes and fastidiously educate my children in the ancient ways of my people and our folklore and special places. Normally we do this on a Sunday after church!
So, like millions more here, I am totally relaxed with the present and ancient and we treat the task of keeping alive our tribal identity far more serious than many I have met in nationalist circles, many of whom talk a lot but build very little even through their own family, communal or wider social circles. To these people I say “don’t tell me what I am doing wrong, show me what you have done right”
Like most of my kin, my siblings and I were raised on tales of Tuatha De’ Danann, Queen Medb, King Arthur, Merlin and much more, (including Arthurs quest for Christ’s Holy Grail). I have a living and still very much present relationship with my ancient ancestors and in Ireland that connection is no airy fairy, dreamy, festival based historical spectacle; Oh no, it is real, on-going and ever present within the communities. Who actually knows the religious practices of my ancestors whose bones lay in the fields all around me and are still very much a part of our society here? I don’t but it is not that important to the on-going cultural narrative of my ancient relatives.
So, just because I promote the faith that my blood and tribe has adhered to for 1,500 years does NOT mean I reject our ancient forefathers or their/my myths and legends. Indeed, unlike the rest of transient Britain, here in ‘Ireland’ we have a much stronger living and unbroken connection to our ancestors than in most other places. I believe that now in many parts of Britain people only possess an historical or intellectual acknowledgement of who they might be and therefore are inclined to cling onto or are attracted to, so-called paganism as a mechanism to connect to the ancestors who went before them or to provide them with a sense of historical belonging.
This is an admirable quest in principle, but it a mechanism I and millions of my fellow tribesmen have simply no need of as we already have that strong and unbroken link to the ancient. Nevertheless, to seek re-connection is worthy and of great importance in the struggle to unite our people in order to fight and survive the onslaught of the Islamic invaders. I think we can achieve this separate from imbibing a mystical collection of religious beliefs that have been out of our national and collective memories for almost 1,600 years.
Here in Celtic Ireland or in Gaelic Scotland, few need this surrogate pagan connection because our link to the ancients has never been broken and is still a vibrant part of who we are today. This is not to claim cultural superiority but merely to explain a reality that exists. On my mother’s knee I learnt of Nelson, Wallace, Clive, Cuchulainn, St Patrick, the Kingdom of Dalriada and the heroes of the British Empire, all explained in unbroken breath as a living narrative of my tribe and the unified nation we now owe allegiance to.
Today I fear, few can say the same. This may be the reason I have little or no interest in Pan European Nationalism, Where would I find the room in an already full repository of cultural identity and faith, why would I wish to?
My cultural and ancient ties run deep, my Celtic heritage is brim full and ever living so I have little need of searching for an identity anchor. I, like millions of Scots/Irish, know exactly who we are and where we came from, not just in an intellectual way but in an everyday real and living sense (clan enmity still exists in Scotland and the Ulster conflict has much more to do with tribal identity than it has with religion) This may explain some important differences between me and many of my detractors.
I have the great blessing to live in a society where we take for granted our tribal stability and ancient ties and therefore are very relaxed and confident about our identity. Many without this understandably are prone to lash out at what they wrongly perceive as a betrayal of the ‘old ways’ of our peoples, but without themselves having in any real sense, a current living connection with any facet of the ancient blood or continuity of tribal identity, other than as a bi-product of a political ideology.
Words are fine but look at the reality. Today my tribe, firmly rooted in our ancient past but now deeply Christian and ferociously patriotic (and racially aware) regularly puts 100,000 marching tribesmen in military formation onto the streets of Ulster (that’s 5 million in English population terms), often in violent defiance of the authorities. On some occasions we have up to 300,000 on the streets across our land, that’s one in three of all males. Can you imagine such power harnessed and then unleashed by English nationalists?
So before you dismiss me and my world, think on and imagine if Nationalists in Britain could muster 5,000,000 or even 15,000,000 men, marching in military formation and willing to die rather than even be re-routed let alone banned? At present in Britain we could barely muster a few thousand between all the nationalist groups combined and even then it would more resemble a gang of unruly football hooligans than a civilian militia of determined patriots. I know England isn’t Ulster but unless she learns Ulster’s lessons and pretty damned quick, our children will perish and the black flag of Islam will fly from every public building in THEIR acquired land.
Britain’s isolation and state of constant war with continental Europe was borne out of our religious separation from them at the Reformation and gave us a sense of ’ourselves alone’ a uniqueness, even a national sense of superiority over our European neighbours who still clung to the old religion of the stifling Middle Ages.
Think of Elizabeth I’s Tilbury speech, think of Nelsons motivations and prayers.
Think also of our empire building and the nations that were spawned from these shores, America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Rhodesia, and South Africa and their religious identity. Why us, what made the British so different from all others? To the racial purists I caution against citing genetic superiority, could we really be that THAT superior to the Swedes or Danes or Norwegians or Germans?
NO, I don’t think so. Most scholars, religious or secular agree that wherever WE Britons went, we took our sense of being special and chosen with us as well as our blueprint for commerce, law, civil governance and lofty ideals of building a righteous and prosperous society. Some scholars think this a bad thing, some think it good, but all agree that the vein that ran through the entire package of what it meant to be British was our commitment to our faith and our desire to share our ‘superior’ form of religion, civic governance and the ‘work ethic’ not only with the savages but with those of the ‘old world’ Much of the time we were often in fierce competition with the old Christian world mainly dominated by Spain and France. Politics back then was religion and religion was politics, nearly every decision was subject to or the result of religious considerations.
The world of secular politics is a relatively new phenomenon and in reality totally bogus. Think of George Bush, Reagan, Thatcher, Paisley, McGuiness and Blair to name but a few high profile leaders, unpalatable to most but all driven in policy by their religious commitment and world view. Even in the EU, Prodi, and many of the top commissioners including the Bank appointed Italian premier are Church educated and hold top positions in European religious orders. The naive idea of separating religion from politics is ludicrous. If a man is a deeply committed Christian/Jew/ Muslim his thinking will be massively shaped by this worldview into every aspect of his career, decision making and policy. Just imagine if Jim Dowson was a government minister or councillor? Take my point.
One only has to explore by study the evangelical zeal of many (if not most) of our past elder statesmen, prime ministers, military heroes and explorers to see clearly how utterly intertwined our sense of national pride and identity was fused with our religion. As a nation, our special, isolated Christian faith bound us together against the world up until very recently. Religion has been described as a power beyond ourselves which makes for righteousness. Look at Nelson for example: The great assertion which lies at the root of Christianity is that "behind all the changes and chances of this mortal life is God, and it is our duty to obey Him, to fear Him, and to love Him." NELSON
Nelson was a parson's son. He prayed morning and evening and wrote special prayers in his log when about to engage the enemy in battle. To him England’s war against Napoleon was a holy war. "God and my country" were his passion.
He would say, “I will do my best, and hope that God Almighty will go with me." When his ship was damaged in the Gulf of Lyons he was gratefully humble and said: “Firmly I believe that it was the Almighty's goodness - to check my consummate vanity. I believe that it has made me a better officer, as I feel confident that it has made me a better man.” Just before Trafalgar an officer surprised Nelson in his cabin as he was writing his last prayer – for England and humanity.
“May the great God whom I worship grant to my country, and for the benefit of Europe in general, a great and glorious victory; and may no misconduct in anyone tarnish it; and may humanity after victory be the predominant feature in the British Fleet! For myself ...I commit my life to Him Who made me, and may His blessing light upon my endeavours for serving my country faithfully. To Him I resign myself and the just cause entrusted to me to defend. Amen. Amen. Amen.”
Nelson dies in the moment of victory, repeating to himself his vindication: "Thank God, I have done my duty!" What a man, what a hero, what a Stout British National Christian Patriot!
Today only a fool would say that it is a vibrant, living faith that binds us, indeed we are undone on a communal and national level so it is self-evident that the glue (whatever you think it was) has dissolved and we as a people are now disparate and isolated from any notion of social oneness or national unity in any real or tangible sense. However, there are still occasions when the fumes of our past rock solid cohesiveness and sense of ‘oneness’ can be inhaled by our people in a very ‘British ‘sense.
Just look at how Royal events, be they weddings, funerals, trooping of the colours or a jubilee bring out millions onto the Mall and achieve the highest TV ratings of all and spawn tens of thousands of street parties and celebrations across the land. Remembrance Day also involves millions in a national act of collective reflection in 50,000 churches and war memorials across the nation. Victory celebrations like VE day, VJ day and the Falklands also bring out millions of Brits onto the streets in a brief patriotic display of ‘oneness’. . Imagine if nationalism could but harness 10% of this we would sweep away the whole rotten edifice of the EU and Islam in a few months.
Other Christian events, less obviously but no less unifying for the ‘British’ like Christmas and Easter also provide well-loved vehicles for nation unity and participation. On a smaller community level, weddings baptisms and funerals often provide the only opportunity for a family or community to interact in these increasingly socially isolated times Sporting events also bring out a sort of national pride, albeit rather parochial and crude.
I would ask the reader to look at the mechanics and rituals surrounding and underpinning all of these major national events! An outsider from Mars would be given the impression that this nation and her people were religious fanatics when faced with the pomp and circumstance of our main cultural events, most of which start or finish in a church or are smothered in rich Christian language, paraphernalia and clergy.
Many of us Brits are so used to seeing our big events or are that busy participating in them that we are no longer cognisant of their presence, but I say, look again my friend and look well. For it is only when something becomes so totally ingrained does it become invisible and this I submit, is the case with many, if not most of our people and their relationship with Christianity in the context of involvement in our national events. A strong but subconscious awareness of the Church however, remove it or attack it and a whirlwind is unleashed, likewise harness this social reality correctly and a tornado will rip through this land uprooting all foreign palms and strange fruit that now grow in Albion’s fertile soil.
Let us be clear here, I am not advocating the promotion of any kind of religious revival, indeed it is my opinion that this side of a war, such a thing would not be possible or desirable. I merely point out that our existing deep rooted Christian heritage has in the past, and now to a lesser more cultural extent, still acts as a national form of unifying glue that cements our many competing factions and ideologies and identities together as one nation and one people.
To be extra clear when I say Christian heritage I refer to its by-products mentioned above, I do not necessarily refer to an ecclesiastical or real and personal commitment to the faith. This is a point many fail to see or are unable to discern, and interpreted as a valid intellectual nationalist position despite it being so glaringly obvious by the above events that it spawns and their popularity among our peoples, even today. Surely it is folly for the 5 million who attend church weekly, the millions who have been in the scouts, boys brigade, girl guides and the other tens of millions who consider themselves in some way connected to Christianity to be ‘overlooked’ or ignored and even ridiculed by many in the British nationalist movement?
It is akin to a mosquito ignoring an elephant; it means little to the great beast but renders the mosquito weak and doomed to an emaciated death. In Europe many of the fantastically successful nationalist parties are drawing their disproportionate strength from their Christian host; their lifeblood is being veraciously sucked up and transferred into political success on the back of the ancient Christian heritage that provides a unifying framework.
All across Europe nationalism is being fed and promoted by the local churches and historical links to Christianity yet many clever British nationalists are totally blind to this and have no idea of the massive Christian/nationalist hook up going on. Look at Belgium, Hungary, Russia, Bulgaria, Romania, Poland etc, etc, etc. It may be downplayed for expediency but I have been and seen the political youth camps in Europe and the Ukraine, they are run and administered by the churches and the local branch set ups are often working in, or out of church owned premises.
The upsurge in successful nationalist organizations is inextricably linked to their Christian heritage in Europe. Only where the church has been replaced with ideology has the movement by in large, stagnated and became a caricature of an ‘earlier national socialist time’. Plenty of noisy presence lacking any real support or any vestige of power or people appeals in any significant way.
It is clear that a significant number of nationalists are completely out of kilter with the average patriotic man and woman on the street in Britain. Yes, this may be because “they are all brainwashed zombies” as my nationalist purist friends repeatedly tell me, maybe, but never the less we must work with what we have and to alienate 95% of those who consider themselves to be proud Brits is almost masochistic, even sadistic and incredibly restrictive to the building of an integrated, united and common cause movement that can fight and win!
Let me grasp the nettle here and risk being the new hate figure for the purists. Many, if not most nationalists that I speak to currently in the movement i.e., BNP/NF/BPP (or ex) are wedded to ideals that are totally repellent to most people who are proud to be British. The promotion of paganism, the ridicule of Christianity, the hatred of national icons like the Queen, Churchill, Cromwell and many more who are beloved of our people is a complete turn off to most, as has been proved over the last 60 years. Also, The fixation with race, not the problems that racial immigration brings, but with skin tone no matter where the people reside and a whole other raft of self-isolating hobby horses like ZOG, the Bilderbergers, Zionist bankers and an ever increasing plethora of other conspiracies have reduced our appeal to numbers that could easily fit in a decent sized community hall.
Let us be very, very clear here, like the great boxer Ali, I too am a solid racialist and I am no Zionist and yes, I do believe there is a N.W.O reality and that the EU is but one dimension to this evil, but to dwell on these deeply misunderstood and people repelling subjects while also chasing further millions away by the anti-Christian, anti ww2- Churchill iconology and anti-Royal creeds that run so deep within branches of the nationalist movement leaves us where we are now…nowhere, powerless, marginalized and ignored by the vast majority who are themselves ‘patriotic’ Britons. The fact is, most British patriotic citizens love much of what nationalists hate! There is no future in such folly for the ‘nationalist’ movement, NONE WHATSOEVER!
Sadly, I have reason to believe by the blatant and consistent self-destructive behaviour among nationalists, we have now self-selected ourselves to the position where many are simply so cranky and ‘far out’ that reasoned debate and cerebral considerations is almost pointless with many. Some openly use German icons or link to 1930’s National Socialism on their webs and blogs and even the more ‘intellectual’ among our ranks are swept into the so called ‘new’ right-wing think tanks. These self-aggrandising talking shops are where self-proclaimed intellectual giants still churn out (albeit in a far more cognisant way) the same old ‘Blood and soil’, national socialist, pagan folklore ridden, Germanic in flavour, toxic material that landed us in political obscurity and national disdain in the first place. Yet they keep talking, and the British people keep walking…. AWAY!
The proclamations and lofty speeches from the rights so-called, ‘intellectual elite’ is not even propaganda, as propaganda at least tries to induce converts to join the cause. The stuff they peddle repels all but the paid up NS nationalists anyway and merely serves to reinforce the opinions of a few purists in their own political conceit and self-deception. More drivel, more hot air, more isolation and ever nearer to our collective national doom.
I am not saying its right, I am not saying it’s wrong but I am saying that, to 99% of the patriotic public it is not only weird and cranky but deeply offensive and contrary to what they hold dear, and right or wrong, ‘them are the potatoes’ as our cousins across the pond say.
However, despite the reality of our near complete failure and lack of impact even at local level some nationalist fight on with their rejected and people repelling ideologies. Like some kind of nihilistic cult hell bent on offending and driving away the greatest number of our people, many within our movement still proclaim publically that which should barely be whispered privately. Do these people get a kick out of being ridiculed or loathed? Are they in competition to see who can be the most socially and politically isolated and despised? If so, there are many contenders within our ranks.
This is not a principled noble stance, its gross self-abuse and plays fast and loose with our children’s future and I for one, am utterly fed up with these people and the nihilistic and the socially putrid message they proclaim to an increasingly hostile British public!
Some say I play this game also? Not so, I am deeply involved with several socially Conservative groups whose memberships and influence far outstretched the BNP at their height, but few within them will come over to our cause because of the reasons I have already laboured upon. These connections together with my entire families integration in the fiercely patriotic Ulster Unionist culture, my wider church involvement and my normal business activities gives me a fairly good handle on what I am talking about and how others, who should be our natural allies, see us and the movement generally.
However, one cannot argue in this, such a troubled arena without offending many, that is a fact. I take no pleasure from this and it does indeed grieve me, but we will be at war soon enough and the avoidance of causing offence is to be truthful, not my primary concern at present. In this I ask your understanding and patience. It is true I see little purpose in pandering to a minute number of nationalist pagans if it means we by doing so we lose far more Christians. Nor do I think we should bend over to the tiny gay nationalist lobby under any circumstances. If we can carry the pagans along, great, but we shouldn’t even contemplate the concept of the ‘pink nationalist ‘lobby being a valid expression or branch of our cause ‘Period’.
Many may indeed dispute the veracity of my interpretations but I caution the reader to weigh up the dissenters personal social standing and current, wider local community involvement before coming to a conclusion. It’s easy to agree with each other, but it’s the millions of directionless and unattached patriots we need to be concerned about. These millions are found among our neighbours and townsfolk. Unlike many of the dreamer’s among the nationalist fraternity, I know my kin, in and out of politics;
I am involved in every facet of my local and wider community. I know my tribe and they know me. Most weekends as many nationalist dream or pontificate in the cyber world, myself and my children are marching with thousands of our fellow patriotic tribesmen bound together by BOTH ancient ancestral blood ties and our communal Christian heritage. This is real life for me, day after day, not a nationalist fantasy world that so many of my comrades now seem intent in retreating into (if they ever really came out at all) only daring to ‘fight to the death’ from the warm confines of their homes and wielding nothing more dangerous than a keyboard!
History is a great teacher and in the early days of the Ulster conflict the Provisional IRA did not exist, but the Official IRA did but lost ground and the support of the Church and the people because they openly spouted their well-developed but unpopular Marxist ideology and disdain for the Church, and following a brave but poor defence of their communities in 69 the opportunity to oust them presented itself and the provisionals' were born. No less Marxist in ideology but they were not so vocally anti church and thus gained the support of their church and people and as they say, the rest is history. Today this once small band of geeky, idealistic teenagers jointly runs my country and a quarter of the United Kingdom, and all done in less than 25 years. My joint first minister, Martin McGuiness attends church every single day, a lefty yes, but one who has reconciled his political ideals with the cultural/religious and community reality for most of his people.
I trust most can see my point but in case it’s lost on some it’s this: All ideologies are valid in someone’s eyes but many are not expedient or even acceptable to most. We must harness national icons and cultural landmarks on our communal landscape and use them to our advantage rather than attempt to tear down the very things that our enemies are also trying to destroy. The message many nationalists proclaim is simply too confusing to most. Islam hates the Queen - many nationalists hate the Queen, Islam hates the Christian church - many nationalists have enmity against the church, Islam hates our military icons - many nationalists openly rail against the nations favourite military icons (Churchill), and Islam hates Israel - many nationalists also hate Israel (I personally have no love for Israel before you ask). Can you see a pattern emerging here?
In study after study the academic world has shown that what makes ‘The British Feel British’ are: The Royal Family, WW2, Dunkirk/Spitfires/Churchill and all that, The Christian Church and festivals, Our Xenophobia!, especially against the French and Germans and our public displays of pomp and ceremony. Do many of these resonate with the current crop of ‘Nationalists’??
The ideological arguments that emanate from the lower, middle and upper echelons of the nationalist world in Britain are very interesting, some indeed may be valid but they are akin to a group of penniless, homeless starving men sitting around the dying embers of almost extinguished fire in the dead of winter but rather than seek survival, warmth and nourishment they insist on discussing the intricacies, evils and authors of fractional banking and derivatives! Such a hopelessly deluded band is doomed by the law of natural selection to perish from this earth and with them their lofty ideals. I have no desire to sit pontificating while the fire goes out, waiting for deaths icy grip to carry me off into the inky blackness of the winter’s night of national defeat, assimilation or racial annihilation.
I have been brutally honest in this three part thesis, I have laid bare who I am, where I am coming from and where I believe we should go and unlike many within the movement, I have personal and intimate experience of widespread communal violence, ethnic cleansing of areas, the deaths of defending patriots and the impact of prolonged armed assaults on a society. Every single day of my life I meet and pass the widows and children of patriots who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in defence of my tribe’s homeland. Many if not most of my neighbours have served and lost family members in recent times in the defence of this part of the UK, so the future of England’s struggle in particular is real to me in a very practical and sombre sense. I have little time for fantasist ‘political soldiers’, cranks or blowhards.
Thousands on both sides died here in my lifetime, hundreds of thousands were maimed for life, and these people are my friends and family. They are the general population all around me, even in my small quiet town in a relatively safe area we had 12 locals murdered, dozens more maimed and scores of men imprisoned for daring to fight back. we also had over 400 local men serve with the official defence regiments and police and hundreds further in the ranks of the paramilitary forces and all from a town of 6,000 in a ‘quiet ‘ area of Ulster. Maybe that’s why I have an uncompromising, abrasive persona regarding our national struggle. I have seen and heard it all before and I see too many in our movement content to indulge themselves in pointless fringe political standpoints that almost guarantee our continued isolation from the millions who we need to engage with and who already crave a vehicle to pin their allegiance to. Our people are looking for a movement where honesty, integrity, and decency are paramount but they also want something familiar and recognizable and something that they can easily identify with.
All I suggest is that we could do a lot worse than to play on the national, ancient and cultural icons that the Christian church has provided these last 1,500 years to encompass a sense of our shared communal, historical and national experience, purely as a way to galvanise a significant number of our people into a movement of resistance and ultimately, conflict. It may not be perfect and may only be a part of the answer but I contend that is a far more appealing ideal to millions of British patriots than what we currently offer and have had repeatedly rejected by our kinsmen these last 60 years.
Whatever you make of this thesis remember this: A terrible conflict of unimaginable ferocity and horror is coming, our ruling elite will be with the enemy and the battle ground will be the towns and cities from the Midlands up to Lancashire and west Yorkshire. Millions of ordinary British people will be displaced and hundreds of thousands will perish. Our wives, our daughters, and our sons will die in a Jihad of bombs, bullets and mayhem unleashed from a thousand Mosques across the land. We lost 3,600 here in NI in a tiny population (over 100,000 in an English context) but what has already started on the mainland will be far more brutal and deadly than the Ulster conflict ever was.
No one will escape the carnage, no family will remain unscathed, and the graveside will become a familiar and regular meeting place as we lay to rest those loved ones slain from among our midst by the religious fanatics of an exploding unified Islamic war machine. For them the conflict is all about faith and that is their strength and the power that will launch them upon our children and grandchildren like a medieval whirlwind of death and destruction.
Our forefathers knew only too well this desert wind of death but defeated it on the battle fields of tours, Vienna, Budapest, Valencia and lepanto. Your ancestors and mine crushed the bloody crescent moon under a sea of Holy white banners, with the sacred blood red sign of Christ’s cross emblazoned upon them. It is my personal and deeply held conviction that only when our people, like our fathers before us, raise again the battle standard of the Lamb of God before us, can we be assured of victory over the tens of millions of embedded Islamist Jihadists and their traitor allies here in this country.
Finally, I humbly suggest that far more Britons would rally to the banner of the Cross rather than to the banner of Mosley, Merlin or a German inspired, National Socialism. One thing is for sure, we shall all live or die on the decisions and directions we establish now. There are but a few summers left to us before the dark clouds of Islam’s winter extinguishes the light for many a generation. I truly wish that we could avoid this conflict but it is absolutely inevitable. We are the last of the FREE Britons my friend so choose your path wisely. Your children’s lives do really depend on the actions we take NOW!
Thank you for your patience and forbearance in reading this very lengthy thesis and be assured, whatever happens my household will fight and NEVER surrender, it’s in our blood and after 400 years of almost constant unbroken warfare here , fighting is all we know, let’s hope those on the mainland of Britain are fast learners.
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 1: Jim Dowson B.Th, Belfast 24/3/2012
Recently I read an article attacking Britain First in general and me in particular. I am sure you can imagine that I am no stranger to criticism, most of which is baseless or from the minds of the seriously disturbed.
However, this latest criticism was different: it was genuine in intent and from someone who was seriously concerned about my personal viewpoints and the “damage” my mindset may do to “his” vision of “nationalism”.
This got me thinking about the whole nationalist “genre”, its monumental failure over the years to engage with the British public in any real or meaningful way and its failure to attract anything more than a miniscule membership base.
We should remember that several ‘pro-life’ groups in this country have paid up memberships of over 40,000, while the BNP at their height never managed to attract more than 14,000 members.
I quote these figures to emphasize the reality that eludes so many nationalists that we are a fringe of a fringe of a rump on the edges of the margins of political or cultural life in this country. Yet many still talk as if nationalism is on the brink of a major breakthrough if only we could rid ourselves of Nick Griffin and a few other cranks. This sentiment is madness.
There are individual church congregations with larger memberships than the BNP. One single church in London has over 20,000 members, with several thousand in attendance every Sunday.
In Belfast, Paul Golding and I attended a church which every week has around 3,000 ‘bums on seats’. Again, I quote these figures to give some perspective to the nationalist dilemma and to introduce some realism to the delusional position of so many good patriots and nationalist stalwarts.
Now I want to return to the criticisms of myself. The basis of my critics prose was the simple proposition that I was clinically insane, mad and un-hinged (a position many would concur with). What was the basis of the diagnosis? My religion and faith. Yes, the critic was convinced of my mental instability because I, like another five million Britons, still attend church once a week (although only 900,000 attend the C of E), pray and read the Bible.
My critic was further appalled by my total and unshakable opposition to slaughtering our next British generation in the womb - yes I am implacably anti-abortion. He was also repelled by my opposition to ‘gay marriage’, homosexual adoption and a few other issues that a generation ago would have been opposed by almost all of our people.
I wonder if my critical friend knows that even if you add together the combined attendance at every football ground in the four divisions in England and those in Scotland, Ulster and Wales, football fans on a Saturday are still outnumbered 5 to 1 by Christians attending church the following day.
In this country, especially in nationalist circles many have the perception that football is so huge that it may provide a great recruiting platform for nationalist groups and that is why the NF, BNP and EDL put so much time into leafleting and selling papers outside football stadiums.
However, the false perception that football is the largest social event where OUR people gather and that the Christian church is tiny, irrelevant and almost defunct has steered the entire movement down a blind alley and resulted in the self imposed ghettoizing of Our Cause and has robbed us of several generations of decent, law abiding, clean living, capable people who would have been very useful to the furthermost of our agenda.
How many times have nationalists targeted Christians as we target football fans? I hear the reader ask, “If the Christians are so numerous and patriotic, where are they then?” A good question and one I can answer from my own personal experience.
When I was 16 I was deeply involved in the loyalist struggle in Ulster. I also flirted with the NF, even spending time at the HQ in Pawsons Rd, after being ejected from college for putting up anti-IRA NF stickers all over the campus (it was a fair cop). However, even as an ‘ultra-patriot’, I found my experience in London with the NF deeply unpleasant and alien to me.
Back then I was an infrequent church goer and had very little active faith if any, but I found that within nationalism then, as now, there was a virulent anti-Christian undertone and many ‘patriots’ were obsessed by a foreign notion of nationalism, i.e. one derived from Europe and Germany in particular (these “British” patriots conveniently ignore the famous saying “National Socialism is not for export.”)
This I found repellant and more than a bit bizarre as even as a youth I fully understood the true notion of ‘Britishness’, the pomp and circumstance, the feeling that we British were a special people and our intrinsic national link especially since the reformation, of nationhood, self-reliance and our Christian heritage.
One just has to observe the opening of Parliament or the opening of a rural council meeting to see that Christian ceremony dominates the proceedings as it does our legal system and just about every institution we claim as ‘quintessentially’ British.
Yet, nationalists are blind, ambivalent or hateful towards these old landmarks that are so deeply entrenched in the British people’s narrative, thus rendering themselves and the nationalist movement a rather exotic, or, at best, a foreign body that is most unappealing to most British people, even at a superficial level.
Even when clever marketing or terrorist events drive large numbers of decent people into our ranks they quickly exit when confronted with the strange fruit of national-socialist hang-ups, cerebral ethno-politics and rabid anti Christian ideology that, unfortunately, one could sell by the pound at most NF, BNP, EDL meetings despite the widespread use of Holy symbols and phrases.
Lately, it looks as if this was changing with the EDL getting more outwardly ‘Christian’ - even Griffin started wearing a cross and demanding crosses on all BNP propaganda.
Sadly, Griffin was only pretending and the EDL/British Freedom types seem more interested in defending Israel than Britain, or running around our town centres boozed up, jumping around like immature oiks chanting football slogans at an increasingly un-phased Muslim population who could, if they wished, wipe the floor with them if it so pleased their Imams.
You see the inescapable truth is simple, Britain, our mindset, our collective memory, our institutions, community customs and our nation’s entire narrative is not just completely intertwined with Christianity but rather we and our ‘Britishness’ are a product of the Christian Faith.
From the opening of a small council meeting to the state opening of Parliament to the naming of a ship, our Christian heritage cocoons the entire proceedings.
Think of when we welcome a child into the family or when we bury our loved ones, our Christian heritage sets the tone for the social interaction and rites of passage. Indeed this heritage is so completely interwoven as to become ‘unnoticed’ by its normality for most people, but none the less, any outside observer sees this thread of Christianity in our national make up as a strong and almost unique feature of ‘The British’.
Remember, we think of our American cousins as a nation deeply influenced by faith, however, the Europeans view us Brits in a similar light yet we fail to see the woods for the trees.
For anyone who is skeptical about how attractive our Christian heritage is to our people, even on a sub-conscious level just look to the largest ‘patriot’ group around at present. The EDL! They absolutely smother their literature in extreme Christian symbolism and icons. From crusader crosses, to knights templar motto’s, all of which permeates this groups web-site, blogs, facebook pages, merchandise and literature.
Unfortunately, I fear these people are insincere in their use (or are being deceived) and have shamefully woven Zionism and multi-culturalism into OUR iconology and ancient identity, this, just like European Nationalism is foreign to us British and will ultimately be their downfall.
Nationalism has never made any significant breakthrough in this country, ever. The NF at its peak could turn out maybe 4,000 on the streets and the BNP mustered half a million votes and 14,000 members, but these are unbelievably low figures considering huge swathes of our country now resemble Bangladesh.
For many years I have been amazed by the delusions of grandeur most nationalists suffer from, an almost manic sense of self importance pervades the entire movement and a fair amount of individuals therein.
Consider these figures against nationalism: the women’s institute has 210,000 paid up members, the Labour Party in 1997 had 405,000 members, the Tories peaked under Thatcher at 3,000,000 and the twitchers charity the RSPB boasts over 1,000,000 paid members including 195,000 youth members.
Many other social groups like the Masons have over 600,000 members in England alone and most depressing of all is the ‘Caravan Club of Britain’ who enjoy a membership of 375,000 households producing an annual turnover in excess of £100 million and employing 800 staff. To be frank, many golf clubs have achieved far larger memberships than any ‘nationalist’ group, until now.
These figures should put a sense of reality to our movement - we are so small it beggars belief, but why? After all we have been pushing our message for decades yet we are smaller than some vintage car clubs.
Well, I know exactly why and I shall say so - someone has to. We are small because our product is an unattractive foreign import, even in what most nationalists would regard as ‘moderate’ manifestations.
Successive nationalist leaders in this country have presented to the great British public an ideology fleshed out in the European theatre which contains ingredients alien to OUR culture and historical collective memory and social experience.
20th century British nationalism has also carried a virulent strain of anti-Christian malevolence. We see this clearly in the nationalist propensity to ridicule the faith of our fathers these 1,500 years in favour of various manifestations and interpretations of Germanic gods, or the pagan beliefs of our people thousands of years previous. Mention Odin, Thor or the Green man at most nationalist meetings and one will quickly be engaged in a friendly conversation. However, spout out the name of Jesus Christ and cries of “Jewish import, foreign, middle eastern rubbish” will soon fill your ears.
I know that devout, church attending Christians are not in the numbers they once enjoyed but most British people are so deeply entwined with cultural Christianity they don’t even know it by large. On the other hand there are still 5 million regular church goers in this country and the cultural Christians number in the tens of millions.
Most Britons may not articulate their ingrained national Christian identity in an outward fashion but we see their position being manifest in their almost unanimous decision to reject our nationalist message in its current and long standing format.
The DNA of English/British Christianity was, and still is, who we are. A man may leave the army after 20 years service and be far away from his discarded uniform but to any observer one can see by his mannerisms, behaviour and walk that ‘he might be out of the army, but the army as never been out of him’. And so it is with us and our Christian social and collective experience. We are what our history has made us and to jettison this will render us irrelevant - just ask the BNP or NF.
From Mosley to Tyndall, Webster to Griffin, all have tried to impose a north European national socialist atheist or (pagan) ideology on the British patriotic constituents within our population with very little success. Even today we British are far more insular, parochial and patriotic than any of our European neighbours yet they have built huge nationalist movements and we, sadly, have utterly failed.
The answer is not to continue on with the failed strategy of trying to import that which works in Europe, the answer lies within us, in our unique cultural and social interaction and collective historical experiences. Our task is to tap into the existing rich cultural DNA that permeates our lives and that includes celebrating/exploiting our Christian heritage and the social markers that regulate our society.
For those who think we have no such things, ponder these social regulators: Christmas, Good Friday, Easter, Saints Days, Pancake Tuesday, All Souls (Halloween), baptisms, christenings, weddings, confirmations, funerals.
To those that doubt the efficacy and near total domination of Christianity on every facet of our society need only look to any state occasion, be it Parliament, the Lords, Royal Weddings/Funerals, Council meetings Military displays especially Remembrance Day and even many sporting events.
All are set within the rich and well practices ceremonies that involve us all in some kind of collective/tribal community action and contemplation.
I suppose what I am alluding to is this: whether you like it or not, most if not all of our private and collective benchmarks in our native life are marked and regulated by centuries old traditions of Christianity. It’s part of our British DNA. On the surface, our taste for religion may ebb and flow but I suggest that scratch a British patriot and his or her Christian identity (spiritual or cultural) will shine through with blinding radiance and be defended with jealous pride.
European patriots have always had to supplement their faith with a political way to manifest their national pride as their majority faith was subservient to a foreign power. However, since the reformation our British nation, patriotic identity and pride have been completely immersed in our peculiar and defiant faith.
Indeed that was what separated us from Europe these last 500 years and was the driving force behind the many conflicts we endured, (although please don’t think for one moment I am being sectarian, (Been there, its not a good place) I am merely trying to explain our peculiar national and historical experience.
Today we live in a new dispensation where particular brands of Christianity are far less important and those of the old European variety need not be kept at bay by ‘Puritan England’, but nonetheless we have been foolish in trying to over-write our own centuries old collective DNA with a European code. It has not, and could not ever have worked, not now, not ever, it’s just not who WE are.
Getting back to the original criticism of me: I stand fast on my sincere beliefs and my opposition of such social cancers as gay marriage, gay adoption and the butchering of the next generation of Brits by abortion. If that repels some nationalists or patriots I make absolutely no concession whatsoever and would challenge them in their claims to love this nation and our people.
I want to help our people survive and to build a better, cleaner, more just society and to that goal I am fully committed. Surviving the coming apocalyptic struggle as an atheistic, gay adopting, child murdering, degenerate nation would be the final insult to our ancestors and long gone heroes. It would be better for such a nation of people to have never existed at all. Even worse and far more unmanly and cowardly would be surviving as a nation of converts to Islam.
Make no mistake, there are many of the ruling elite and sadly many Racial nationalist's who would readily convert but for different reasons. One to retain wealth and influence, and the other for more nefarious reasons.
Several well respected nationalist's have said to me over the years,’ better a surviving white Muslim Britain than no Britain at all’. I utterly and completely reject this abomination and suggest this back up ‘survival strategy’ would weaken our resolve to the point of assured defeat.
I personally have no survival exit strategy and hold fast to the principle: better to fight to the last man, women and child (I say this with 4 bountiful grandchildren in mind) than give up one square inch of OUR country to the Islamic invaders.
Better we are remembered in history as the people who could not be tamed, intimidated or conquered than those who put up a bit of a fight then conformed in order to save our skins.
Because of its evil and suffocating nature and not because of our intolerance we can never compromise with Islam, nor can we ever come to a mutually respectful arrangement in the future, such a temporary solution would always spell the end for us.
This paper is the first of three that I have written in order to try and clarify our current situation. By understanding where we came from it may just be possible to map out the direction of where we should be going to ensure our future generations a secured future.
Who are we British? Part 2 of 3
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 2: Jim Dowson B.Th
In the first part of my paper examining who we are and what made us and just why nationalism has spectacularly failed to engage all but the tiniest proportion of our people despite circumstances that should make nationalism a first choice for millions.
My main proposition was, and is, that patriotic politics (nationalism), has failed miserably because its ethos (real or perceived) is rooted in a European model of racial nationalist expression which is an alien and foreign product and a most un-appealing ideology to us Brits for many reasons, not least of which is its intrinsic rejection of our own rich and ancient Christian heritage (real or perceived).
In the first part of this paper I was deliberately provocative in challenging the ‘nationalist mind-set’ by showing how overwhelmingly their ideas of what constitutes a ‘patriot’ had been rejected for over half a century, but still many nationalist leaders bang the same old busted drum, never attracting, only repelling, fresh generations of our beleaguered people.
Many critics will no doubt immediately brand me a Christian fundamentalist or race traitor with an agenda. Well, this is partly true, but the critics offer very little reasoned, researched or balanced arguments against my points.
Indeed, many nationalists contend that people like me, who use Christian language and references, are hopelessly out of kilter with the mainstream.
These sentiments only reinforce my premise that it is nationalism (especially the more racially vocal type), in its current manifestations, that is out of touch, irrelevant, mysterious and deeply unattractive to most British patriots.
Recently, a respected opinion poll cited that 40% of British children these days do not know the ‘Lord’s Prayer’ as opposed to only 10% not knowing this thirty five years ago.
This interesting news has stirred up church leaders and annoyed many religious people and indeed many nationalists have used this study as ammunition against me and my opinions.
However, let us for a moment ponder these figures: 40% of our kids DON’T know the Lord’s Prayer, but an incredible 60% actually DO KNOW IT!
What percentage of our children, even those from nationalist parents know what the ‘14 words’ stand for, or what ZOG means or what the NWO stands for or what we mean by white racial nationalism?
Right or wrong, these are the facts and we would be foolish in the extreme to ignore such an obvious communal creed and common bond still so vibrant within our young people.
The same study threw up another interesting point: more children NOW think God and religion is important than their parent’s generation, this despite a drop in church attendance over the period.
This is a fascinating snippet of information and needs some very deep thought and consideration.
Could this be a reaction against their parents’ consumer-based lifestyle over the last twenty years?
Could the ‘baby boom’ generations mantra of free love, their replacement of God with consumerism, be coming to an end?
Has a fifty year social anomaly now run its course? Who knows, but I think it is entirely possible.
You see humans, all humans, need something bigger than themselves to ‘buy into’ - the baby boomers merely replaced their forefathers’ ancient stone and stained glassed ‘communal’ landmarks with Bluewater, the Arundale Centre and a thousand other shopping centre temples to the new consumer gods of Asda, Tesco, Next and JJB sports.
The 1940s generation was sold the idea that individualism was the new path to enlightenment and this human salvation could be brought about by embracing the glittering new deities of personal wealth and consumerism.
Also important to this promised route to personal and social Nirvana was the total rejection of the collective and familiar cultural icons and traditional mores that for centuries acted as the glue that held together our once strong communities, extended families and our collective idea of nationhood.
Let me be very clear here: I do not wish to see the nationalist movement become a full on Christian enterprise nor do I think that would work or appeal to the average Brit.
I am however, suggesting that Christianity is so deeply ingrained into the fabric of our society at every level, that we would be foolish to ignore this.
I would go further and say that our brand of Christianity is not just in the fabric of our nation, it is interwoven into every Britons cultural DNA and the collective narrative of our island race.
Cultural markers like the Lord’s Prayer are like ancient echoes that resonate deep within us and around us. Similarly our Christian architecture has shaped what we think of as the quintessential British townscape.
From the lofty parish spires we see in the distance marking out an ancient town or village, seen through the eyes of a hundred generations of our people, to the palace of Westminster, built as a gothic temple as Pugin and Barry re-defined what it was to build in a ‘British style’.
Look around you: nearly all of our Victorian town halls, railway stations and civic buildings are so ecclesiastic in appearance that they confuse many a tourist.
Even the foremost ‘temple’ to Darwinism and secular modernity, the Natural History Museum, was built in the form of a great medieval Christian cathedral.
This is why our historical faith and religious heritage is so terribly important to the idea of ‘Britishness’ and to most Britons.
It is the civic glue that binds us as a people and echoes the voices of our ancestors’ collective experiences down through the millennium and it resides deep within millions of our kinsfolk.
We have nothing else so powerful, so subliminal or so accessible that we can easily access for the benefit of our struggle and for the unification of our people in the dark days that lie ahead of us.
This cultural cement took 1,500 years to set, for fifty years the cultural Marxists have chipped away at it, as have the secular ‘national socialists’, atheist racial purists and the pagan nationalists, but our cultural Christian heritage is a powerful binding agent, not just a superficial veneer of creeds, clergy and buildings.
It is part of our national and personal DNA and can never be fully removed from us.
Indeed, give it the slightest encouragement and it will burst spectacularly into full bloom again.
Or, when faced with a spiritual/political foe such as Islam, our ancient faith, (cultural or personal), shall rise up in a most masculine and aggressive format in defence of the host, the Nation that nurtured and adapted it to our specific requirements as a people.
The faith of our fathers is not dead - it merely sleeps within us and may well be awakened by the invaders ‘Adhan’ call to prayer from the forest of Minarets that now populate our landscape.
It shocks and exasperates me that so many patriots and nationalists fail to recognise or accept this and still continue in their belief that people like me are out of touch.
Please try and find the program “How God Made the English” and you will see what I mean.
http://www.pixotube.com/how-god-made-the-english-s01e03/
History has told us time and again that no secular society has ever succeeded in quashing a people with a deeply held faith, even when in the minority.
This is where the Frankfurt schools ideology has gone wrong.
Yes they managed to secularize almost the entire top tier of our political structures and society.
But they had not, and by their own secularism, could not, ever had envisaged how easily a vibrant, unified faith community like Islam could then take over a society that the Frankfurters had stripped bare of its natural defences.
It is not only us that now lie weak and prostrate, it is the Marxists too, as they will soon find out as Islam rises in the countries that they have left ruined and vulnerable.
However, this disaster may carry the seeds of our own salvation too: if a highly motivated and unified community like Islam can sweep aside the PC and politically effeminate ruling classes so can we.
Indeed Islam may show us the way ahead.
Militant Islam may re-ignite our collective and civic consciousness and notions of nationhood which, in my opinion, can only be found in a shared national, historical Christian context.
In the 2010 census 46 million Britons described themselves as ‘Christian’, and over 5 million get up, dress in their best and make the effort to go to their local Church every Sunday.
To ignore such a committed mass movement and spiritual reality within our own people is national suicide.
After 80 years of internal subversion many church goers are indeed bleeding heart liberals, but the vast majorities are not.
In fact, secular liberalism is far more widespread than Christian liberalism and I suggest that besides the race issue, many nationalists are far more socially liberal than most Christians would dare to be.
The vast majority of Christians in the UK are deeply hostile to Islam, unbridled immigration, the EU, ‘gay rights’, the PC lobby and many other nationalist common causes.
Most are also opposed to thuggish behaviour, divorce, sexual promiscuity, drunkenness, foul language and the football hooligan mentality. These, unfortunately are some of the social ills that have dogged nationalism for years with little or no effort spent in trying to address these issues.
More importantly, Christians, like most fellow Britons are fairly xenophobic, however they are also instinctively anti-racist in the sense that they will broach no discussion on the merits of a man depending on his racial group or skin colour or ethnic identity alone.
We Brits tend to judge a man on who he is, rather than what he is.
Yes, most of us have a moan about the foreigners down the road but our ingrained sense of fair play and personal respect for our fellow man prevents millions from giving perceived blanket racist groups our support.
I cite the NF and BNP as classic examples of this moral and national dichotomy for our people.
Fair play, decency and reasonable tolerance are sacred cows for most Britons, especially Christians, as is their absolute abhorrence of anything that is, or could be classified as belonging to the school of Nazism or Communism.
In fact, to even discuss such things among Christians often results in immediate rejection of the bearer and whatever cause (no matter how noble it may be) he or she may be espousing.
Right or wrong, Frankfurt influenced or not, this is how it is and we do not have another eighty years to re-educate millions of natural patriots on the nuances of racial differences and the mitochondrial markers in the inferior peoples of the world.
Now, I must be brutally honest and up front here: as a patriot whose childhood was deeply rooted in the Orange/Loyalist culture, which is uncompromisingly and fiercely patriotic, I knew virtually no one in our world that liked the BNP or NF.
Yes, some of us , myself included, flirted with so called ‘Nationalism’ of the mainly English BNP/NF variety in our youth, but almost all of us were totally repelled and alienated by the often intense pro-Nazi/white power/ZOG/pagan obsessed ethos of many within the movement.
For a time I lived and worked in London, during which the Brixton riots happened and around then several whites had also been butchered by blacks.
As a committed and heavily involved loyalist my only reference to such massive attacks on a community was to strike back, but all I saw was the natural anger, rage and tribal need to survive being stifled by endless, inane political ramblings every day in the NF’s Pawsons Road HQ or in the Swan pub up the road.
Lots of big talk, intellectual talk, stupid talk, but absolutely no action.
Englishmen and women were dying, our capital city was being destroyed, but the only response from the nationalist leaders were delusional ten hour discussions on ‘white superiority’ and electoral daydreams of securing a modicum of power through the ballot box.
There is nothing superior about a people who refuse to defend themselves or exact retribution from those who would seek to destroy them and their children’s birth right.
The political system was and still is used as a tool to lock up and channel our national outrage and our youthful energies and strength into safe and controlled neutralising political safety nets.
Despite many nationalists now understanding this we yet again we see our youth in the form of the potentially revolutionary EDL now being corralled into the futile political system.
This will neutralise any threat they may have posed and will end in failure just like the NF/BNP before them.
The EDL/BFP will probably be even bigger than their NF/BNP predecessors in order for the state to keep a lid on the increasingly deteriorating ethnic/political situation in Britain.
Alas, it will be nothing more than a state sponsored holding pen and intelligence gathering operation for the best of our young patriots and that is the real tragedy, for this is our last generation before Islamic Armageddon in this Country.
To be completely clear, I personally despise the ideologies and practical applications of much of German National Socialism and I have little time for the real Nazis, but I reserve my real disgust and bitter contempt for the crackpot wannabe Nazi clowns who have caused our noble Cause to be so despised in the eyes of the British public for over sixty years.
It is we British who are a special and ‘chosen people’, not the Germans!
I am no multi-cult ‘civic’ nationalist, I assure you and I care little for the Jews and the state of Israel or their Palestinian foes (a plague on all their houses) but I am also no Nazi apologist, admirer or fan.
We have legions of our own heroes and have no need to go looking for European ones.
Nor am I a blanket racist, I have an affinity with all of mankind but I prefer and wish to preserve my own tribe and nation more than any other factor.
I treat all humans, black, brown, yellow with kindness and respect.
The thought of hating a man just because he is non-white is thankfully, beyond my comprehension.
Neither do I possess any great affinity with foreigners no matter what colour their skin.
Yes, I do understand racial politics and yes, technically I accept that we northern Europeans are all one people and ethnic group, but it’s just too big a concept for me and I fear for most Britons too.
My kinsmen are those of my immediate, tangible tribe, the Scots, the Welsh and the English and to a certain extent the Irish.
The political manifestation of this, our ‘United Kingdom’, is more than enough to have to deal with without daydreaming of a pan-European or worldwide ‘white national identity’.
Let’s be honest: most Scots, Welsh and Ulster patriots harbour to varying degrees a mild hostility or suspicion towards the English.
This ‘soft resentment’ is not in any way hatred, but it is an unspoken (in front of our English comrades) reality that most Celts do their best to mask.
It is not a malignant thing but merely a mechanism of very small nations to resist assimilation into the gigantic neighbour next door.
This is not a sign of a weak union - indeed the Celtic nations of the UK have always had far higher numbers of volunteers when called upon to defend the political entity of the UK and far higher casualty rates.
So our commitment to the union despite our national differences is beyond question and our integrity towards the political idea of a United Kingdom, beyond reproach.
After three hundred years of hard work keeping our own nations together one can see the difficulties in attempting to realise the pipe-dream of white European unity.
In the real world and every decade spent pursuing a united ethno /political pipe dream further enhances the neglect we have shown to building our own indigenous community cohesiveness to the point that we now fail to interact as a community at all in many parts of this country.
Our political focus is, and must be, purely and entirely ‘national’.
Many Britons no longer even know their neighbours. This in turn is facilitating the invaders easy takeover of our land and adding to our peoples’ feelings of isolation and powerlessness that manifests itself in unprecedented ‘white flight’ all over the country.
Who in the world fifty years ago would have believed that in a few decades’ dozens of British towns would have fallen to Bangladeshi and Pakistani invaders?
Who would have even considered that millions, yes millions, of English, Welsh and Scots citizens would have been displaced and put to flight from the streets and towns of their forefathers by hordes of uneducated third world peasants?
And who on earth would have believed that all this could have befallen the British without the threat of gun or bomb?
Nobody in their right mind would have envisaged that the British, in their millions, would have fled the field before firing a single shot in defence of their homes and towns?
This is how weakened we have become, yet those millions who have been driven out of their homes still find the ‘nationalist’ ethos and product so unattractive that they refuse to engage with us.
Surely it is time to rethink our entire approach and attitude if we are ever to dare hope of survival, let alone victory.
It is time for radical thinking and even more radical actions if we are to build any sort of cohesive resistance in the few short remaining years.
My proposition is that we must use those shared cultural experiences and historical frameworks found in abundance within our Christian heritage to unite our people and to provide a ‘broad church’ of consensus and resistance to a threat that is in essence, a religious one: Islam.
To consistently use the race card as a rallying cry has consistently failed, only a fool refuses to learn his lesson and I am no fool.
I once witnessed a discussion between a scientific professor and a lowly salesman - the salesman was trying to convince the boffin that people respond in certain ways dependant of their cultural and collective historical experiences.
The salesman argued that even at a basic level, if something looks exotic or different it will naturally be rejected by people.
The professor strongly disagreed and thought that people these days were so modern and sophisticated that they would embrace the strange, unfamiliar or exotic without question.
So, to settle the matter the salesman took some everyday foods and some odourless food dye and made some green chocolate, red butter and offered it to the academics’ students (who were all ever so sophisticated and devoted to modernity) and the results were interesting.
Not one of the students liked the look of the food and few would even try them.
The ones that did try them, rejected them, despite knowing that the only change was in the colour.
This proved that despite our sophisticated, modern societies, human nature remains the same: we reject out of hand the unfamiliar even when we know it is okay in reality.
Therefore we must package our message in familiar language using recognisable packaging, trusted trademarks and established recognised branding.
I personally can think of no better packaging or branding for our message of National Survival than the plurality of the English (British) Christianity that deeply permeates the spiritual and civic consciousness of our sense of nationhood and ethnicity. Can you?
Still don’t believe me that our entire national ethos and existence is grounded in the firm foundations of masculine Christianity?
Please do something for me that may challenge your thought patterns of what it means to be ‘British’ and especially ‘English’.

In part three, the final part of my thesis I will set out how we can survive and the practical social mechanisms we need to put in place to encourage growth and strength in our communities.

Who are we British? Part 3 of 3
WHO ARE WE BRITISH, WHAT FORCE FASHIONED SUCH A SPECIAL AND CHOSEN PEOPLE
:Part 3: Jim Dowson B.Th
Jesus said, “Greater love hath no man than this that a man lay down his life for his friends”. John 15:13
I stand by the above statement and my friends are my Nation and people, some with faith and some with none, I make NO distinction and by deed I have in the past and will continue in the future to serve my people without any consideration of what they believe or don’t believe. With this reality in mind I invite you to read on..
In the first 2 parts of this three part thesis I had argued that our Christian heritage (not necessarily living) has been fundamental to what we call ‘The British’ our worldview, our internal outlook, indeed I suggested that the very concept of Britannia was, in the modern term ,1600 until 1900 forged by the Christian faith and our sense of unity and community and was until very recently, sustained and nourished by our national faith. This is NOT in any way an abandonment of our rich ancient, pre-history cultural legacy. As an Ulster Scot whose main families have lived within the same square mile town land for almost 400 years since returning to our homeland during the plantation. Indeed as an Ulster/Scot or Ulaid my family have lived within a 50 mile radius for the last 5000 years.
Nowhere in Europe will you find a more ancient, less diluted tribe than here, my wife, daughter-in-law and son-in-law all share multiple clan names with my own family. On the road where I live we have 4 ancient ceremonial mounds and a huge standing stone and a few miles away we have a much larger ancient ceremonial site that most families visit regularly with their kids to tell tales of the great battles for Ulster against the Gaelic men of Ireland. Even today you can see the mighty Setanta, (Cuchulainn), hero of Ulster depicted on the banners of our loyalist marching and deeply Christian orders.
The continuity is real and present for me and millions of Celts and unlike many in nationalist circles on the mainland we have no tension between our ancient non-Christian tribal heroes and our Christian present. Unlike many of my critics I have regularly and publically carried aloft the banners of our ancient folk heroes and fastidiously educate my children in the ancient ways of my people and our folklore and special places. Normally we do this on a Sunday after church!
So, like millions more here, I am totally relaxed with the present and ancient and we treat the task of keeping alive our tribal identity far more serious than many I have met in nationalist circles, many of whom talk a lot but build very little even through their own family, communal or wider social circles. To these people I say “don’t tell me what I am doing wrong, show me what you have done right”
Like most of my kin, my siblings and I were raised on tales of Tuatha De’ Danann, Queen Medb, King Arthur, Merlin and much more, (including Arthurs quest for Christ’s Holy Grail). I have a living and still very much present relationship with my ancient ancestors and in Ireland that connection is no airy fairy, dreamy, festival based historical spectacle; Oh no, it is real, on-going and ever present within the communities. Who actually knows the religious practices of my ancestors whose bones lay in the fields all around me and are still very much a part of our society here? I don’t but it is not that important to the on-going cultural narrative of my ancient relatives.
So, just because I promote the faith that my blood and tribe has adhered to for 1,500 years does NOT mean I reject our ancient forefathers or their/my myths and legends. Indeed, unlike the rest of transient Britain, here in ‘Ireland’ we have a much stronger living and unbroken connection to our ancestors than in most other places. I believe that now in many parts of Britain people only possess an historical or intellectual acknowledgement of who they might be and therefore are inclined to cling onto or are attracted to, so-called paganism as a mechanism to connect to the ancestors who went before them or to provide them with a sense of historical belonging.
This is an admirable quest in principle, but it a mechanism I and millions of my fellow tribesmen have simply no need of as we already have that strong and unbroken link to the ancient. Nevertheless, to seek re-connection is worthy and of great importance in the struggle to unite our people in order to fight and survive the onslaught of the Islamic invaders. I think we can achieve this separate from imbibing a mystical collection of religious beliefs that have been out of our national and collective memories for almost 1,600 years.
Here in Celtic Ireland or in Gaelic Scotland, few need this surrogate pagan connection because our link to the ancients has never been broken and is still a vibrant part of who we are today. This is not to claim cultural superiority but merely to explain a reality that exists. On my mother’s knee I learnt of Nelson, Wallace, Clive, Cuchulainn, St Patrick, the Kingdom of Dalriada and the heroes of the British Empire, all explained in unbroken breath as a living narrative of my tribe and the unified nation we now owe allegiance to.
Today I fear, few can say the same. This may be the reason I have little or no interest in Pan European Nationalism, Where would I find the room in an already full repository of cultural identity and faith, why would I wish to?
My cultural and ancient ties run deep, my Celtic heritage is brim full and ever living so I have little need of searching for an identity anchor. I, like millions of Scots/Irish, know exactly who we are and where we came from, not just in an intellectual way but in an everyday real and living sense (clan enmity still exists in Scotland and the Ulster conflict has much more to do with tribal identity than it has with religion) This may explain some important differences between me and many of my detractors.
I have the great blessing to live in a society where we take for granted our tribal stability and ancient ties and therefore are very relaxed and confident about our identity. Many without this understandably are prone to lash out at what they wrongly perceive as a betrayal of the ‘old ways’ of our peoples, but without themselves having in any real sense, a current living connection with any facet of the ancient blood or continuity of tribal identity, other than as a bi-product of a political ideology.
Words are fine but look at the reality. Today my tribe, firmly rooted in our ancient past but now deeply Christian and ferociously patriotic (and racially aware) regularly puts 100,000 marching tribesmen in military formation onto the streets of Ulster (that’s 5 million in English population terms), often in violent defiance of the authorities. On some occasions we have up to 300,000 on the streets across our land, that’s one in three of all males. Can you imagine such power harnessed and then unleashed by English nationalists?
So before you dismiss me and my world, think on and imagine if Nationalists in Britain could muster 5,000,000 or even 15,000,000 men, marching in military formation and willing to die rather than even be re-routed let alone banned? At present in Britain we could barely muster a few thousand between all the nationalist groups combined and even then it would more resemble a gang of unruly football hooligans than a civilian militia of determined patriots. I know England isn’t Ulster but unless she learns Ulster’s lessons and pretty damned quick, our children will perish and the black flag of Islam will fly from every public building in THEIR acquired land.
Britain’s isolation and state of constant war with continental Europe was borne out of our religious separation from them at the Reformation and gave us a sense of ’ourselves alone’ a uniqueness, even a national sense of superiority over our European neighbours who still clung to the old religion of the stifling Middle Ages.
Think of Elizabeth I’s Tilbury speech, think of Nelsons motivations and prayers.
Think also of our empire building and the nations that were spawned from these shores, America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Rhodesia, and South Africa and their religious identity. Why us, what made the British so different from all others? To the racial purists I caution against citing genetic superiority, could we really be that THAT superior to the Swedes or Danes or Norwegians or Germans?
NO, I don’t think so. Most scholars, religious or secular agree that wherever WE Britons went, we took our sense of being special and chosen with us as well as our blueprint for commerce, law, civil governance and lofty ideals of building a righteous and prosperous society. Some scholars think this a bad thing, some think it good, but all agree that the vein that ran through the entire package of what it meant to be British was our commitment to our faith and our desire to share our ‘superior’ form of religion, civic governance and the ‘work ethic’ not only with the savages but with those of the ‘old world’ Much of the time we were often in fierce competition with the old Christian world mainly dominated by Spain and France. Politics back then was religion and religion was politics, nearly every decision was subject to or the result of religious considerations.
The world of secular politics is a relatively new phenomenon and in reality totally bogus. Think of George Bush, Reagan, Thatcher, Paisley, McGuiness and Blair to name but a few high profile leaders, unpalatable to most but all driven in policy by their religious commitment and world view. Even in the EU, Prodi, and many of the top commissioners including the Bank appointed Italian premier are Church educated and hold top positions in European religious orders. The naive idea of separating religion from politics is ludicrous. If a man is a deeply committed Christian/Jew/ Muslim his thinking will be massively shaped by this worldview into every aspect of his career, decision making and policy. Just imagine if Jim Dowson was a government minister or councillor? Take my point.
One only has to explore by study the evangelical zeal of many (if not most) of our past elder statesmen, prime ministers, military heroes and explorers to see clearly how utterly intertwined our sense of national pride and identity was fused with our religion. As a nation, our special, isolated Christian faith bound us together against the world up until very recently. Religion has been described as a power beyond ourselves which makes for righteousness. Look at Nelson for example: The great assertion which lies at the root of Christianity is that "behind all the changes and chances of this mortal life is God, and it is our duty to obey Him, to fear Him, and to love Him." NELSON
Nelson was a parson's son. He prayed morning and evening and wrote special prayers in his log when about to engage the enemy in battle. To him England’s war against Napoleon was a holy war. "God and my country" were his passion.
He would say, “I will do my best, and hope that God Almighty will go with me." When his ship was damaged in the Gulf of Lyons he was gratefully humble and said: “Firmly I believe that it was the Almighty's goodness - to check my consummate vanity. I believe that it has made me a better officer, as I feel confident that it has made me a better man.” Just before Trafalgar an officer surprised Nelson in his cabin as he was writing his last prayer – for England and humanity.
“May the great God whom I worship grant to my country, and for the benefit of Europe in general, a great and glorious victory; and may no misconduct in anyone tarnish it; and may humanity after victory be the predominant feature in the British Fleet! For myself ...I commit my life to Him Who made me, and may His blessing light upon my endeavours for serving my country faithfully. To Him I resign myself and the just cause entrusted to me to defend. Amen. Amen. Amen.”
Nelson dies in the moment of victory, repeating to himself his vindication: "Thank God, I have done my duty!" What a man, what a hero, what a Stout British National Christian Patriot!
Today only a fool would say that it is a vibrant, living faith that binds us, indeed we are undone on a communal and national level so it is self-evident that the glue (whatever you think it was) has dissolved and we as a people are now disparate and isolated from any notion of social oneness or national unity in any real or tangible sense. However, there are still occasions when the fumes of our past rock solid cohesiveness and sense of ‘oneness’ can be inhaled by our people in a very ‘British ‘sense.
Just look at how Royal events, be they weddings, funerals, trooping of the colours or a jubilee bring out millions onto the Mall and achieve the highest TV ratings of all and spawn tens of thousands of street parties and celebrations across the land. Remembrance Day also involves millions in a national act of collective reflection in 50,000 churches and war memorials across the nation. Victory celebrations like VE day, VJ day and the Falklands also bring out millions of Brits onto the streets in a brief patriotic display of ‘oneness’. . Imagine if nationalism could but harness 10% of this we would sweep away the whole rotten edifice of the EU and Islam in a few months.
Other Christian events, less obviously but no less unifying for the ‘British’ like Christmas and Easter also provide well-loved vehicles for nation unity and participation. On a smaller community level, weddings baptisms and funerals often provide the only opportunity for a family or community to interact in these increasingly socially isolated times Sporting events also bring out a sort of national pride, albeit rather parochial and crude.
I would ask the reader to look at the mechanics and rituals surrounding and underpinning all of these major national events! An outsider from Mars would be given the impression that this nation and her people were religious fanatics when faced with the pomp and circumstance of our main cultural events, most of which start or finish in a church or are smothered in rich Christian language, paraphernalia and clergy.
Many of us Brits are so used to seeing our big events or are that busy participating in them that we are no longer cognisant of their presence, but I say, look again my friend and look well. For it is only when something becomes so totally ingrained does it become invisible and this I submit, is the case with many, if not most of our people and their relationship with Christianity in the context of involvement in our national events. A strong but subconscious awareness of the Church however, remove it or attack it and a whirlwind is unleashed, likewise harness this social reality correctly and a tornado will rip through this land uprooting all foreign palms and strange fruit that now grow in Albion’s fertile soil.
Let us be clear here, I am not advocating the promotion of any kind of religious revival, indeed it is my opinion that this side of a war, such a thing would not be possible or desirable. I merely point out that our existing deep rooted Christian heritage has in the past, and now to a lesser more cultural extent, still acts as a national form of unifying glue that cements our many competing factions and ideologies and identities together as one nation and one people.
To be extra clear when I say Christian heritage I refer to its by-products mentioned above, I do not necessarily refer to an ecclesiastical or real and personal commitment to the faith. This is a point many fail to see or are unable to discern, and interpreted as a valid intellectual nationalist position despite it being so glaringly obvious by the above events that it spawns and their popularity among our peoples, even today. Surely it is folly for the 5 million who attend church weekly, the millions who have been in the scouts, boys brigade, girl guides and the other tens of millions who consider themselves in some way connected to Christianity to be ‘overlooked’ or ignored and even ridiculed by many in the British nationalist movement?
It is akin to a mosquito ignoring an elephant; it means little to the great beast but renders the mosquito weak and doomed to an emaciated death. In Europe many of the fantastically successful nationalist parties are drawing their disproportionate strength from their Christian host; their lifeblood is being veraciously sucked up and transferred into political success on the back of the ancient Christian heritage that provides a unifying framework.
All across Europe nationalism is being fed and promoted by the local churches and historical links to Christianity yet many clever British nationalists are totally blind to this and have no idea of the massive Christian/nationalist hook up going on. Look at Belgium, Hungary, Russia, Bulgaria, Romania, Poland etc, etc, etc. It may be downplayed for expediency but I have been and seen the political youth camps in Europe and the Ukraine, they are run and administered by the churches and the local branch set ups are often working in, or out of church owned premises.
The upsurge in successful nationalist organizations is inextricably linked to their Christian heritage in Europe. Only where the church has been replaced with ideology has the movement by in large, stagnated and became a caricature of an ‘earlier national socialist time’. Plenty of noisy presence lacking any real support or any vestige of power or people appeals in any significant way.
It is clear that a significant number of nationalists are completely out of kilter with the average patriotic man and woman on the street in Britain. Yes, this may be because “they are all brainwashed zombies” as my nationalist purist friends repeatedly tell me, maybe, but never the less we must work with what we have and to alienate 95% of those who consider themselves to be proud Brits is almost masochistic, even sadistic and incredibly restrictive to the building of an integrated, united and common cause movement that can fight and win!
Let me grasp the nettle here and risk being the new hate figure for the purists. Many, if not most nationalists that I speak to currently in the movement i.e., BNP/NF/BPP (or ex) are wedded to ideals that are totally repellent to most people who are proud to be British. The promotion of paganism, the ridicule of Christianity, the hatred of national icons like the Queen, Churchill, Cromwell and many more who are beloved of our people is a complete turn off to most, as has been proved over the last 60 years. Also, The fixation with race, not the problems that racial immigration brings, but with skin tone no matter where the people reside and a whole other raft of self-isolating hobby horses like ZOG, the Bilderbergers, Zionist bankers and an ever increasing plethora of other conspiracies have reduced our appeal to numbers that could easily fit in a decent sized community hall.
Let us be very, very clear here, like the great boxer Ali, I too am a solid racialist and I am no Zionist and yes, I do believe there is a N.W.O reality and that the EU is but one dimension to this evil, but to dwell on these deeply misunderstood and people repelling subjects while also chasing further millions away by the anti-Christian, anti ww2- Churchill iconology and anti-Royal creeds that run so deep within branches of the nationalist movement leaves us where we are now…nowhere, powerless, marginalized and ignored by the vast majority who are themselves ‘patriotic’ Britons. The fact is, most British patriotic citizens love much of what nationalists hate! There is no future in such folly for the ‘nationalist’ movement, NONE WHATSOEVER!
Sadly, I have reason to believe by the blatant and consistent self-destructive behaviour among nationalists, we have now self-selected ourselves to the position where many are simply so cranky and ‘far out’ that reasoned debate and cerebral considerations is almost pointless with many. Some openly use German icons or link to 1930’s National Socialism on their webs and blogs and even the more ‘intellectual’ among our ranks are swept into the so called ‘new’ right-wing think tanks. These self-aggrandising talking shops are where self-proclaimed intellectual giants still churn out (albeit in a far more cognisant way) the same old ‘Blood and soil’, national socialist, pagan folklore ridden, Germanic in flavour, toxic material that landed us in political obscurity and national disdain in the first place. Yet they keep talking, and the British people keep walking…. AWAY!
The proclamations and lofty speeches from the rights so-called, ‘intellectual elite’ is not even propaganda, as propaganda at least tries to induce converts to join the cause. The stuff they peddle repels all but the paid up NS nationalists anyway and merely serves to reinforce the opinions of a few purists in their own political conceit and self-deception. More drivel, more hot air, more isolation and ever nearer to our collective national doom.
I am not saying its right, I am not saying it’s wrong but I am saying that, to 99% of the patriotic public it is not only weird and cranky but deeply offensive and contrary to what they hold dear, and right or wrong, ‘them are the potatoes’ as our cousins across the pond say.
However, despite the reality of our near complete failure and lack of impact even at local level some nationalist fight on with their rejected and people repelling ideologies. Like some kind of nihilistic cult hell bent on offending and driving away the greatest number of our people, many within our movement still proclaim publically that which should barely be whispered privately. Do these people get a kick out of being ridiculed or loathed? Are they in competition to see who can be the most socially and politically isolated and despised? If so, there are many contenders within our ranks.
This is not a principled noble stance, its gross self-abuse and plays fast and loose with our children’s future and I for one, am utterly fed up with these people and the nihilistic and the socially putrid message they proclaim to an increasingly hostile British public!
Some say I play this game also? Not so, I am deeply involved with several socially Conservative groups whose memberships and influence far outstretched the BNP at their height, but few within them will come over to our cause because of the reasons I have already laboured upon. These connections together with my entire families integration in the fiercely patriotic Ulster Unionist culture, my wider church involvement and my normal business activities gives me a fairly good handle on what I am talking about and how others, who should be our natural allies, see us and the movement generally.
However, one cannot argue in this, such a troubled arena without offending many, that is a fact. I take no pleasure from this and it does indeed grieve me, but we will be at war soon enough and the avoidance of causing offence is to be truthful, not my primary concern at present. In this I ask your understanding and patience. It is true I see little purpose in pandering to a minute number of nationalist pagans if it means we by doing so we lose far more Christians. Nor do I think we should bend over to the tiny gay nationalist lobby under any circumstances. If we can carry the pagans along, great, but we shouldn’t even contemplate the concept of the ‘pink nationalist ‘lobby being a valid expression or branch of our cause ‘Period’.
Many may indeed dispute the veracity of my interpretations but I caution the reader to weigh up the dissenters personal social standing and current, wider local community involvement before coming to a conclusion. It’s easy to agree with each other, but it’s the millions of directionless and unattached patriots we need to be concerned about. These millions are found among our neighbours and townsfolk. Unlike many of the dreamer’s among the nationalist fraternity, I know my kin, in and out of politics;
I am involved in every facet of my local and wider community. I know my tribe and they know me. Most weekends as many nationalist dream or pontificate in the cyber world, myself and my children are marching with thousands of our fellow patriotic tribesmen bound together by BOTH ancient ancestral blood ties and our communal Christian heritage. This is real life for me, day after day, not a nationalist fantasy world that so many of my comrades now seem intent in retreating into (if they ever really came out at all) only daring to ‘fight to the death’ from the warm confines of their homes and wielding nothing more dangerous than a keyboard!
History is a great teacher and in the early days of the Ulster conflict the Provisional IRA did not exist, but the Official IRA did but lost ground and the support of the Church and the people because they openly spouted their well-developed but unpopular Marxist ideology and disdain for the Church, and following a brave but poor defence of their communities in 69 the opportunity to oust them presented itself and the provisionals' were born. No less Marxist in ideology but they were not so vocally anti church and thus gained the support of their church and people and as they say, the rest is history. Today this once small band of geeky, idealistic teenagers jointly runs my country and a quarter of the United Kingdom, and all done in less than 25 years. My joint first minister, Martin McGuiness attends church every single day, a lefty yes, but one who has reconciled his political ideals with the cultural/religious and community reality for most of his people.
I trust most can see my point but in case it’s lost on some it’s this: All ideologies are valid in someone’s eyes but many are not expedient or even acceptable to most. We must harness national icons and cultural landmarks on our communal landscape and use them to our advantage rather than attempt to tear down the very things that our enemies are also trying to destroy. The message many nationalists proclaim is simply too confusing to most. Islam hates the Queen - many nationalists hate the Queen, Islam hates the Christian church - many nationalists have enmity against the church, Islam hates our military icons - many nationalists openly rail against the nations favourite military icons (Churchill), and Islam hates Israel - many nationalists also hate Israel (I personally have no love for Israel before you ask). Can you see a pattern emerging here?
In study after study the academic world has shown that what makes ‘The British Feel British’ are: The Royal Family, WW2, Dunkirk/Spitfires/Churchill and all that, The Christian Church and festivals, Our Xenophobia!, especially against the French and Germans and our public displays of pomp and ceremony. Do many of these resonate with the current crop of ‘Nationalists’??
The ideological arguments that emanate from the lower, middle and upper echelons of the nationalist world in Britain are very interesting, some indeed may be valid but they are akin to a group of penniless, homeless starving men sitting around the dying embers of almost extinguished fire in the dead of winter but rather than seek survival, warmth and nourishment they insist on discussing the intricacies, evils and authors of fractional banking and derivatives! Such a hopelessly deluded band is doomed by the law of natural selection to perish from this earth and with them their lofty ideals. I have no desire to sit pontificating while the fire goes out, waiting for deaths icy grip to carry me off into the inky blackness of the winter’s night of national defeat, assimilation or racial annihilation.
I have been brutally honest in this three part thesis, I have laid bare who I am, where I am coming from and where I believe we should go and unlike many within the movement, I have personal and intimate experience of widespread communal violence, ethnic cleansing of areas, the deaths of defending patriots and the impact of prolonged armed assaults on a society. Every single day of my life I meet and pass the widows and children of patriots who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in defence of my tribe’s homeland. Many if not most of my neighbours have served and lost family members in recent times in the defence of this part of the UK, so the future of England’s struggle in particular is real to me in a very practical and sombre sense. I have little time for fantasist ‘political soldiers’, cranks or blowhards.
Thousands on both sides died here in my lifetime, hundreds of thousands were maimed for life, and these people are my friends and family. They are the general population all around me, even in my small quiet town in a relatively safe area we had 12 locals murdered, dozens more maimed and scores of men imprisoned for daring to fight back. we also had over 400 local men serve with the official defence regiments and police and hundreds further in the ranks of the paramilitary forces and all from a town of 6,000 in a ‘quiet ‘ area of Ulster. Maybe that’s why I have an uncompromising, abrasive persona regarding our national struggle. I have seen and heard it all before and I see too many in our movement content to indulge themselves in pointless fringe political standpoints that almost guarantee our continued isolation from the millions who we need to engage with and who already crave a vehicle to pin their allegiance to. Our people are looking for a movement where honesty, integrity, and decency are paramount but they also want something familiar and recognizable and something that they can easily identify with.
All I suggest is that we could do a lot worse than to play on the national, ancient and cultural icons that the Christian church has provided these last 1,500 years to encompass a sense of our shared communal, historical and national experience, purely as a way to galvanise a significant number of our people into a movement of resistance and ultimately, conflict. It may not be perfect and may only be a part of the answer but I contend that is a far more appealing ideal to millions of British patriots than what we currently offer and have had repeatedly rejected by our kinsmen these last 60 years.
Whatever you make of this thesis remember this: A terrible conflict of unimaginable ferocity and horror is coming, our ruling elite will be with the enemy and the battle ground will be the towns and cities from the Midlands up to Lancashire and west Yorkshire. Millions of ordinary British people will be displaced and hundreds of thousands will perish. Our wives, our daughters, and our sons will die in a Jihad of bombs, bullets and mayhem unleashed from a thousand Mosques across the land. We lost 3,600 here in NI in a tiny population (over 100,000 in an English context) but what has already started on the mainland will be far more brutal and deadly than the Ulster conflict ever was.
No one will escape the carnage, no family will remain unscathed, and the graveside will become a familiar and regular meeting place as we lay to rest those loved ones slain from among our midst by the religious fanatics of an exploding unified Islamic war machine. For them the conflict is all about faith and that is their strength and the power that will launch them upon our children and grandchildren like a medieval whirlwind of death and destruction.
Our forefathers knew only too well this desert wind of death but defeated it on the battle fields of tours, Vienna, Budapest, Valencia and lepanto. Your ancestors and mine crushed the bloody crescent moon under a sea of Holy white banners, with the sacred blood red sign of Christ’s cross emblazoned upon them. It is my personal and deeply held conviction that only when our people, like our fathers before us, raise again the battle standard of the Lamb of God before us, can we be assured of victory over the tens of millions of embedded Islamist Jihadists and their traitor allies here in this country.
Finally, I humbly suggest that far more Britons would rally to the banner of the Cross rather than to the banner of Mosley, Merlin or a German inspired, National Socialism. One thing is for sure, we shall all live or die on the decisions and directions we establish now. There are but a few summers left to us before the dark clouds of Islam’s winter extinguishes the light for many a generation. I truly wish that we could avoid this conflict but it is absolutely inevitable. We are the last of the FREE Britons my friend so choose your path wisely. Your children’s lives do really depend on the actions we take NOW!
Thank you for your patience and forbearance in reading this very lengthy thesis and be assured, whatever happens my household will fight and NEVER surrender, it’s in our blood and after 400 years of almost constant unbroken warfare here , fighting is all we know, let’s hope those on the mainland of Britain are fast learners.
