British Movement

The British Movement (BM), later called the British National Socialist Movement (BNSM), is a British National Socialist organisation founded by Colin Jordan in 1968. It grew out of the National Socialist Movement (NSM), which was founded in 1962. Frequently on the margins of even the British far-right the BM nonetheless has had a long and chequered history and became well known for its association with violence and extremism. It initially organised as a political party but subsequently abandoned this strategy and has even had spells out of existence.
