🚨 Attention UK Anti-Fascists 🚨

We have a new collection of white-ethnonationalists for you to keep an eye on.

Recently, a number of prominent Far Right figures joined forces to create 'Patriotic Alternative'.

Don't be fooled, it's the same hate, repackaged. /1

You might recognize some of the figures here. They have all played a role in building the organization. Key figures are Mark Collett, Colin Robertson. /2

Mark Collett, ex-BNP is an outspoken white supremacist who has made favourable remarks about the Nazi regime and is involved with the creation of a number of racist podcast & video series.

Check out the tattoo on his ex! /3 rationalwiki.org/wiki/Mark_Coll…

Colin Robertson, aka 'Millennial Woes' is a YouTuber whose rabidly racist, antisemitic videos have made him a hit with the white supremacist scene. He's regularly in attendance at Neo-Nazi gatherings across northern Europe. /4 rationalwiki.org/wiki/Millennia…

Laura Towler, editor of the white nationalist website 'Defend Europa' has gained a following with her videos such as 'We Were Never Asked', about the Windrush Generation. She is a bit of a nexus for Far Right e-celebrities. /5

Someone has obviously given these jokers a bit of money - their material is far in advance of anything created thus far.

Everything gives the impression that they're a well-founded conservative youth movement. Only the talk of 'indigenous population' gives the game away. /6

Do not be mistaken. Those getting involved are exposed to white nationalist propaganda and the same ideas as motivated the Christchurch shooter - think 'Great Replacement', eco-fascism, etc.

Collett and Towler have been pushing it in their 'We Were Never Asked' Video'. /7

So what to do if you see their stickers, leaflets or videos being shared?

βœ… Let anti-racist orgs like @UAF & @AntiRacismDay know, as well as police forces.

βœ… *Peacefully* counter-protest their meetings and rallies.

βœ… Bin pamphlets, remove stickers. /8

❌ Do not give them any excuse to play the persecution card.

I cannot stress this enough.

Forcefully reject them, but do not resort to any kind of violence.

It's wrong, and they *will* monopolise it. /9

For the meantime, if you have a moment, keep an eye on @PatAlternative for violations of the ToS. Same with any donation links they put out.

The price of freedom is eternal vigilance! /FIN

Of course, forgot to add, Laura Towler. /2a
