British National Party

[edit]

References 7-14 are used for the Fascist tag - those are all peer-reviewed journals/books by established academics who printing in mainstream academic journals of note. Can you please outline what is wrong *specifically* with each of those references? In terms of sourcing for wikipedia, peer reviewed mainstream academic journals are considered the highest level of sourcing. Can you outline why you don't consider those sources to be reputable?

Attempts to removed well sourced content without explaining what the issue with the sources is likely to be seen as vandalism and quickly reverted. --Cameron Scott (talk) 17:01, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]


  • "Academics studying right-wing extremism argue that the organisation is still fascist and has strategically masked its core ideology behind the deployment of ‘moderate’ language" [1]
  • Article describing the party as neo-fascist [2]
  • "The neo-Nazi grimace continues to peer out menacingly from under the party’s telegenic neo-populist mask for anyone who takes the trouble to look closely" [3]
  • The BNP was not the first British fascist party to stand in elections. [4]
  • "Griffin's ideological revamp underpins the party's normalization in the eyes of the thousands of Britons who vote for it, making it even more difficult to pin the 'fascist' or 'Nazi' label on the well-groomed bespoke suits of Britain's latest generation of neo-fascist extremists." [5]
  • "First, there are neo-fascist parties such as Forza Nuova and Movimento Sociale Fiamma Tricolori in Italy, the German People’s Union (Deutsche Volksunion, DVU) and the British National Party which espouse fascist or neo-fascist ideology." [6]
  • "The threat of neo-fascist political groups such as the British National Party (BNP) or the National Front (NF) marching into Bradford sparked fury" [7]
