Pre-1919 Organised British fascism is rooted in the mix of social Darwinism, eugenics and Scientific racism that were prevalent around the First World War. This revealed itself through various patriotic and racist groups that were formed, such as the British Brother League (BBL). The BBL claimed that Jewish immigrants competed with British workers by accepting lower wages and were responsible for overcrowding and the creation of slums in the cities.
1919-1930 Its ideas of imperial unity were complemented with organised military ranks. Some of its divisions were trained in jujitsu and unarmed combat. Ideological differences caused the group to splinter and finally wind up. |
