Marxists have long specialised in stopping anyone they consider Nationalist from organising. This tactic has been ever constant since the early 20th century and is ingrained in the philosophy of socialism.
After the First World War, the German Communist Party (KPD) used physical violence and intimidation to prevent ‘right-wing’ meetings and rallies taking place. Many bourgeoise ‘Nationalist’ organisations succumbed to the threat and closed down, or at the very least, curtailed their activities.
Unfortunately for the Reds, the National Socialists were not like the reactionaries who had curled up and gone home. Meeting fist with fist and cudgel with cudgel, they fought the red front for control of the streets and won. Their victory did not come cheaply, with over 700 of their comrades martyred and thousands injured, many seriously, by the red murder gangs.
In Britain, the communists tried the same tactic, attacking Blackshirt meetings and marches. Again, the BUF were not the same pushovers as the bourgeoise groups, and once again, the reds didn’t win the war on the streets. In the end, it took the combined forces of Socialism, Marxism, Zionism, and the establishment to stop the growth of the movement led by Sir Oswald Mosley.
Fast forward to the present, and we find the same tactics in play. Groups like Hope Not Hate and Searchlight deliberately publicise meetings, street activities and gigs with the aim of inciting groups of Marxists to go along and cause trouble.
Alongside the physical threat, the Reds also engage in a campaign of intimidation against pub landlords and hotel management, using anonymous telephone calls and emails, with the aim of getting room bookings cancelled. As a consequence, it is becoming increasingly difficult to organise, be that for meetings, election rallies, socials, or music gigs.
The establishment, with its war against public houses (initiated by Tony Blair), has drastically limited the number of pubs available to hire, with an average of 50 pubs per month closing for good (472 in the first six months of 2024 alone). The only pubs that seem to be thriving are the ones in our city centres. These establishments are closely monitored by CCTV, have ‘bouncers’ on the door, and are connected to the police and other pubs by ‘pub watch’, a system that notifies nearby hostelries of any ‘troublemakers’ or unwanted groups.
The Israeli attack on Gaza has led to an explosion of benefit gigs and fundraisers, organised by the extreme left and held in pubs and clubs, without any threat from our side. To the best of my knowledge, not a single one has faced disruption by nationalists.
One of the red groups specialising in publicising any venue daring to host a ‘forbidden’ group or cause is Hope not Hate (HnH), a splinter from the left-wing Zionist Searchlight group. HnH is the cash cow of Nick Lowles, its Chief Executive Officer. HnH is literally awash with the cash that flows from the Home Office’s Prevent program and the media work it undertakes. To keep itself ahead of Searchlight (and to keep the cash flowing of course), HnH has set its sights on the growing nationalist music scene.
The Director of Research at Hope Not Hate is Dr. Joe Mulhall, a failed musician who has never had a ‘proper job’. On his LinkedIn page, Mulhall described himself thus: “I was a Trustee of the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust for nine years, finishing in 2022. I write regularly for the print media including for the Guardian, Independent and New Statesman and appear regularly on broadcast media including the BBC News at Ten, Radio 4’s Today programme, The Moral Maze and Channel 4 News, among others.”
He has recently published a new book (Rebel Sounds: Music as Resistance) and wanted to promote it at a number of left-wing bookshops around London. Not expecting anything except book sales and high fives, this ‘expert’ in the tactics of monitoring and disruption publicised the date and venues of his book signings.
Unfortunately for Mulhall (and his wallet), persons unknown decided to use the same disruption tactics on him that he is forever boasting about on his X feed. The shrieks and wails from Dr. Joe and his comrades could be heard all the way to the North of England! Eventually, he did manage to have his book promotion, albeit in secret, and from the photograph of the event published in The Guardian, in a broom cupboard.
I should probably state here and now that the BM supports free speech, unlike the extreme left and liberals like The Guardian, and does not support this sort of behaviour. We will leave this sort of monitoring and disruption to the extreme left and Mulhall’s organisation. Perhaps poor old Joe should take a closer look at Searchlight for the culprits.
