Organising for Action What Is To Be Done? Part 11 The Real Business End!

 

Organising for Action 

What Is To Be Done? Part 11 The Real Business End!

By Nick Griffin
 



It is time to examine the practical things that small groups of nationalists can do right now to begin to create a force which can influence, guide and guard a whole community. The list is set out and explained below – by all means scroll down to it right away if you’re pushed for time. For those with the time to read in more depth, and the brains to understand, however, it will help to start with the background facts:

The full-on community organising proposals we have already explored are not for everybody. Engaging with the public – especially in the degraded nature to which centuries of exploitation, decades of welfarism and years of widespread substance abuse have reduced many of them – is not for everyone.

Nationalist parties have always had a tendency to attract well-meaning oddballs who are frankly ill-suited to regular contact with ordinary people. Political obsessives are often crushingly boring and worryingly eccentric to ‘normies’, just as people who remain interested in football and TV shows when our people face replacement frustrate the hell out of individuals who have ‘woken up’.

Today’s online pseudo-parties are even worse, stuffed with autistic loners who are scared to leave their own bedrooms. Getting young men damaged by spending their formative years in an online cesspit out into real world activities is going to be hard enough, without trying to force them to ‘go to the people’. Square pegs in round holes.

These highly political (and often highly intelligent) people will be far better off among their own kind in a specifically political movement. Hence, they are the ideal foot soldiers for the revolutionary vanguard movement which should be engaging in the sort of capacity-building operations we are about to examine.

As for the ‘officers’ of such a movement. They will tend naturally to come from the ranks of the educated middle class and skilled working class young white men (and a growing minority of young women) who were suckered into the Higher Education scam, emerging with big piles of Student Debt and degrees for careers now artificially stuffed with minority ‘diversity’ hires and increasingly being obliterated by AI in any case.

These young people will form a classic example of Peter Turchin’s “elite overproduction” theory in action. The injustice, marginalisation and even violence which they experience on account of being indigenous natives in an institutionally anti-white liberal society, is only adding to the radicalising effect of their inability to secure the jobs and life opportunities for which their background and studies were supposed to fit them.

Role for the ‘Old Guard’

Even before newcomers from this growing disaffected block join the struggle, the primary source for the leadership of nationalist vanguard actions will be individuals who have already been involved in ‘fringe’ nationalist groups. These people (I could say ‘we’) are already politically ‘marked’.

Our mere appearance in one of the community initiatives we studied earlier would bring the unwelcome attentions of leftist bigots, the media, liberal elite and possibly even the security services down upon their heads. The publicity would be damaging and divisive, scaring away decent people and putting a net of suspicion between the activist fish and the community in which they must swim.

Broadly, this covers anyone formerly involved in any hardline nationalist party, even if only in democratic election campaigns. Additionally, anyone who has posted loose, ‘extremist’ talk on social media, whether open platforms like Facebook or supposed private channels on the likes of Telegram. Loudmouth ‘radical’ groups are awash with informers and feds, and everything is harvested, recorded and filed away.

Youngsters only just getting involved should treat the ultra-racist and Hitlerite fringes which encourage such self-destructive nonsense with particular contempt, and stay the hell away from them.

Those who, through frustration, naivety or misplaced youthful rebelliousness, have already got themselves on the watchlists of operations such as HopeNotHate, the Southern Poverty Law Center, Antifa and the official security services, must understand that certain avenues – community action projects and martial arts clubs, for example, are closed to them.

It’s unfair, of course, but such things are for ‘clean skins’ only. We ‘marked men’ must avoid initiatives in which our pasts make us dangerous for everyone including ourselves. Instead, we should confine our IRL efforts to work in the nationalist vanguard, where our presence will not bring down problems for others, and in which nothing is done which, connected to our deeply political records, can put us at odds with Public Order laws.

Fortunately, this nationalist vanguard, whose potential activities we are about to explore, is not some obscure backwater or political retirement home. Rather, it should become the very spearpoint of the overall struggle. It is a long-term project to create a disciplined, well-equipped and trained revolutionary movement. The aim is an organisation, or network of organisations, ready to seize the opportunities which will arise during the later – and especially the end – stages of the Time of the Populists.

What is a Vanguard Movement?

A serious nationalist movement is constantly active. This basic fact has been obscured in recent years by the growth of online pseudo-movements, but it has not been changed. It is self-evident that an ‘organisation’ which relies on the Internet – controlled by globalist and susceptible to instant disconnection by power cuts or government decree – is not an organisation but a vanity project or a fund-raising business.

Of course, an online presence has genuine uses. The sea-change in public opinion and attitudes in recent years is largely based on ordinary people having the ability to set the news agenda and to influence others, rather than everyone sitting and watching TV programmes produced by the elite mind-benders.

But, in the end, you can’t make a revolution, or even defend your own community, with a ‘movement’ which ceases to exist and loses touch with its followers the moment any one of various Powers That Be deplatforms it, or when the Net Zero sabotage of the electricity grid or some external event simply turns the power off.

What shape future crises or revolutionary opportunities may take is something at which we can only guess. What we can, however, say for sure is that major threats and openings will arise, and that movements which have the assets and skills to face or exploit them will make History as a result.

Conversely, those which have spent their time online will be ill-prepared for whatever the future throws at us. This is nearly as true for those which concentrated on working out perfect policies and studying serious ideas as for those who preferred to chat and play video games. The crux of the problem is not what you do online, but the fact that doing it keeps you away from Real Life.

If they are to play any worthwhile role in the future struggles of our people, nationalists must consciously organise and position themselves in vanguard organisations. History doesn’t just happen, it is made to happen – generally by small groups which are in the right place at the right time, and equipped to lead and direct the large bodies of people which coalesce around confident leaders when the time comes.

Equipped is most obviously about having made the concerted and sustained effort to acquire assets and skills, but it is also necessary to be equipped with the right habits. Principle among these is being constantly on the look out for new skills which can be mastered and for new opportunities to be seized to build the organisation, embed themselves in the wider community or to recruit fresh activists.

Perpetual activism is at the heart of the vanguard movement, with the constant problem of entropy – the innate tendency of manmade bodies towards disorder and decline – being countered by a resolute refusal to rest on laurels, to regard the organisational building job as ‘done’, when in truth it is a never-ending process.

Apart from the easy option of ‘online activism’, the other great enemy of the revolutionary vanguard is pouring money and time into losing elections – something which, as we have seen, is the unavoidable fate of serious, principled nationalists when up against populist parties with far better funding, sympathetic mass media coverage and a willingness to tell people what they want to hear, rather than what they need to hear.

Provided these traps are avoided, a few committed nationalists can make rapid progress towards turning themselves from an isolated group of observers into a well-equipped team, ready to become a major force for good in their own area. When this process is duplicated, in town after town and suburb after suburb, the movement as a whole will begin to develop the ability to intervene in events at a national level. So, let’s get started.

I am not saying that you have to do all of these things, although the more that you – and people you recruit along the way – can make work, the more effective you will be. Note that, in each category below, the examples given are in order of practicality, with the easier and cheapest listed first.

Ability to Lead and Direct

The growth in grass-roots demonstrations against things like migrant hotels and HMOs shows a very heartening increasing in militancy in all our nations. Spontaneous and local crowds, however, are by their very nature generally poorly organised, visually unimpressive and undisciplined. They are the very beginning of popular power, but they have a long way to go. The job of the nationalist vanguard is to help them get there.

Noting that the short list in each category is in likely order, with lowest costs and biggest short-term benefits first, you need to buy:

Stock of flags. National and (where known and popular) local; canes or poles from which to fly them;

Crowd marshalling kit. High viz vests; hand-held loud hailers; walkie-talkie radios (Not least because, in the event of any sort of disorder, the police are likely to cut off mobile phone and internet connectivity)

Banners. One on the lines of XXXXtown Says ‘No’ could be used at all sorts of protests;

Blank posters. Ready mounted on placards cut from hardboard and fitted with a simple slate baton handle. A2 is the best size. Use plain white paper and keep a stock of wide felt-tip pens ready. You could get a printer to do you a short run of these with something like XXXXtown Speaks Out as a masthead on the top, ready for your message/s of the day to be filled in underneath;

Wheeled PA system. These are great bits of kit, combined power pack, amp and speaker. Good for music or, with a mic, speeches.

Surveillance drones. Why should the liberal state’s mercenaries be the only ones with eyes in the sky? Also handy for video work, and being proficient at flying drones is fast becoming a manly skill. Not as rough and tough as using a chainsaw, but as necessary as knowing how to sharpen one, and almost certainly much more useful.

Ability to Communicate

Walkie-talkies will also be useful not only for crowd marshalling, but also for activities such as putting up flags and painting things that need painting;

Filming and editing upgrades. While all mobiles now have filming and basic editing capabilities, tuition from someone particularly talented at this will help all your activists become more adept at using these “Kalashnikovs of the Propaganda War”. You should also try to find someone with the computer power, software and talent to do more elaborate film editing and production work;

Klaxon. Handy for adding drama and noise to demonstrations, but that’s not the primary purpose. You may never need this, but if your area has even a remote possibility of coming under physical pressure from hostile forces of any kind, a powerful klaxon/foghorn is a very effective way of warning residents and turning them out. In the Troubles in Northern Ireland, the early years saw warnings bashed out with “the lid of my granny’s bin”, but as time went on a number of communities of both sides of the front line relied on repurposed WW2 air raid sirens, which wee hand-operated but very loud.

Digital duplicator. It may seem strange when it’s so easy to create local Facebook pages, but remembering how easily they can be censored, the value of old-fashioned digital duplicators quicky becomes apparent. Cheap to buy second-hand, cheap to run, sturdy and very easy to use, these short-run (from 10 to 5,000 copies) printers remain the workhorse of local political activism for parties which are serious about it (mainly the LibDems and the Greens).

Having one and a stock of paper (a choice of pastel shades is handy) and ink means that you can respond to anything which happens, at any time, within an hour. A simple but hard-hitting leaflet for every house in a single street, a list of bullet demands and a slogan to hand out on a demonstration, a warning to parents at the school gates about a threat to their children, a small leaflet/poster to put on lampposts.

The basic models are A4. If you buy a reasonable quality hand guillotine, you can use it to cut the paper in half to produce A5 leaflets.

Once you have the capacity and the confidence you will find this a versatile and powerful tool. And it is automatically protected from online censorship and – with an extra investment in a small petrol generator – even from power cuts which will quickly bring all normal life and communications technologies to a grinding halt.

Ability to Help

Poverty, hunger, homelessness and loneliness are endemic, and sure to rise as things get worse out there. You don’t have to help everyone all of the time, just being seen to be helping some particularly needy and deserving people, some of the time, is enough for your organisation to stand out. Not only among those who are helped, but also by the wider public – and especially by the sort of positive, constructive and idealistic individuals you particularly want to recruit.

Food Aid Kit. This is a subject so important and potentially revolutionary that it warrants an article soon all on its own. But here’s where you can start:

Collapsible table - from a hardware store or camping shop. Portable gas burner, large kettle, disposable cups. Now you can make tea for large numbers of grateful people, who will talk with your team while they wait, and happily take away a leaflet or some other message.

At a longer-term event, such as a picket or an overnight vigil, double up the burners and get a couple of big frying pans. Now you’re in the bacon and egg butty league and are getting seriously useful – helping to keep whatever force it is in the field for longer, and happy.

If you don’t expect enough donations to help sustain the cost and this is a commitment which could go on for some time, you will find that a large saucepan full of pre-prepared home-made soup is a much cheaper way to keep large numbers of people supplied with basic food.

Vegetable, leek and potato, that sort of thing. If your team can’t boil an egg between you, find someone’s granny who can teach a couple of your people how to do it. Once you can make a vat of decent soup you can make a stew to feed forty or fifty people; a skill which, at certain moments, can be a deeply political thing, in the true sense of the word ‘politics’.

The tendency to rely on junk food takeaways is something which needs fighting in any case; your forebears in WW1 and WW2 learned to cook in field canteens, don’t for one minute think that you can’t, still less shouldn’t.

Pop Up Food Bank. The portable table top gives you the option of another food aid operation which was developed and used successfully by several old BNP branches in shopping areas. This involves buying a couple of dozen tins of food and other non-perishable food staples, draping flags over the table and them setting your groceries out on top.

Have a simple notice, maybe even some simple leaflets (from your Digital Duplicator) explaining that anyone local who is genuinely hard up and short on food is welcome to help themselves to a couple of items – for free.

Be sure that everyone also knows that, if they are lucky enough not to need your help, then their donations – either in your collection bucket or in the form of a couple of tins – are very welcome. Our BNP teams used to find that the public response was so good that they always ended the day with more food on the table than they started with. Two decades on, perhaps the people of Britain are meaner or poorer, but I rather doubt that their response will have changed.

Soup Kitchen. Meanwhile, once you’re able to turn cheap vegetables, stock and herbs into whole vats of soup, and to cook a couple of dozen bacon sandwiches, you only need to buy a couple of big flasks or insulated tea urns and you’re in business doing regular evening runs to a bigger town or city where there’s a genuine homeless problem.

At least, that’s how it starts. Keep it up and tell people about it and you could easily step up to collecting and providing blankets, sleeping mats and bags, warm second-hand coats, bivvy bags and so on. You’re probably going to find a van or an estate car helpful, but several very successful and long-running nationalist food aid operations started from the boots of normal saloon cars.

Soldiers Off the Streets is a very good example of this. Started in Wrexham by a dynamic former BNP organiser, Bill Murray, this went from car-boot start-up to a properly registered charity. SOS grew to having up to five liveried welfare vans, helping ex-servicemen, from soup, sandwiches and bivvy bags on first contact through to help with addiction and rehousing. It seems to have lost some of its drive since Bill’s death, but the example is there to be followed. Sadly, the need for such operations has certainly not gone away.

If something’s worth doing, then don’t put off starting it until everything is perfect, just get on with it with what you have to hand; refinements can come later. If we can’t help our own homeless veterans, or teenagers for that matter, then how are we ever going to do anything more complicated?

Once you can cater en masse, you are also ready to look at a part-time local replacement for Meals on Wheels for frail pensioners. Or for the occasional major operation to help young families and such like in the event of some natural disaster or systems crash.

In the event that the ongoing effort to spark serious ethno-religious conflict repays the investment of its Zionist backers, many areas are one day going to face a genuine refugee crisis. Large numbers of forced ‘white-flight’ refugees displaced from ‘enriched’ zones will ending up camping on the floors of community centres and sports halls in English counties where the majority community still holds sway. This is such an important long-term consideration that it warrants a piece on its own, so we will return to this subject another time.

Brazier and a few old pallets. You might not need this, but it’s free to get and easy to store in a corner somewhere. Think oil drum with one end cut off and some airholes drilled near the bottom. Now you can bring a safely controlled fire to an all-night vigil. The combination of fire, comradeship and the darkness takes any sort of protest to a whole new level of impact and memorability.

Ability to Educate and Encourage Our Tribe

Learn to Speak. You already have the loud-hailer, so you need to cultivate the ability to use it well. Study public-speaking on YouTube, start practicing in your own small group, then work up. Some people are born with the gift of the gab, others have to work hard to become good speakers. Powerful rhetoric can sway a crowd, and social media can amplify a powerful soundbite so it stirs people around the world.

Training Lectures. In the extraordinary times we are entering, previously apolitical people will suddenly want to learn all sorts of things – how we got where we are, nationalist solutions, practical organisational skills and so on. Nationalist organisations should teach their up-and-coming local leaders how to run training events. Experiment with short lectures, hands-on training sessions, using a laptop and projector, etc.

Remembrance Poppy Displays. Despite the passage of time, the folk memory of the sacrifice of World War 1, topped up by the losses in later conflicts, is a very powerful part of our collective identity. A wide range of poppy-themed decorations are now available online, and a growing number of local communities use these very effectively.

Turning the Remembrance season into a major celebration of our identity is an easy and popular way for a small group of nationalists to make a real difference to the tone of their neighbourhood.

This is a natural development for every RTC flagster group or, conversely, a good way to create a team which can formalise local flag-raising activities for the future.

Kerb-Painting. Widely used in Northern Ireland during the Troubles, the painting of kerbstones in the colours of the national flag is something which is likely to be legal in some circumstances or classed as some sort of criminal damage in others. So be careful if you take this up.

It may be that it is something which is better used as a sort of bargaining chip with local councils over flag displays. “We will avoid putting up flags which may obscure traffic signs and such like. You will leave our flags up. If you do not, then wilder elements locally will come out at night and paint kerbstones, which will end up costing the council thousands in clean-up fees. So ‘Hey, Councillor Jobsworth, leave our flags alone’.”

Murals. Where flag displays mark the start of local tribalisation, and kerb-painting takes it to a level of unstated militancy, murals move things to the level of folk-art. The fact that your area may not have a tradition of these is no reason why you cannot set up to create one.

Loyalist communities in Northern Ireland had long painted murals of King Billy on gable end walls, but the widespread use of political murals in the province was something which took off when IRA fighters hiding out in the Basque Country looked at the murals which had appeared widely there after the death of Franco and exported the tactic to West Belfast, Londonderry and Newry.

Once political murals took off in Republican areas, the Loyalist paramilitaries followed suit. There are three ways to create them: Painted freehand; painted over a projected image and, more recently, by getting a specialist banner printer to ‘tile’ the required image and print it on vinyl, fixing these to a big sheet of marine ply and then bolting it to the wall.

The former requires considerable skill. The latter way is much more expensive, but requires no skill beyond the ability to drill holes in brick and use hefty rawlplugs and screws, or coach bolts. It has the advantage that a mural could be put up for a few weeks and then taken down and either moved or put into storage. This may avoid planning permission problems with hostile councils.

Councils run by populists, on the other hand, are likely to be happy with murals which are purely patriotic or cultural-historical in design. The end wall of a pub or local community centre might make a good place for your first foray into this very powerful form of territorial marker. Possibly for Remembrance Day.

Regional

In addition to the options above, which can be done in pretty much any location, as stand-alone operations by a lone group, there are other constructive and important things which should be done to support, defend and enhance the local operations already set out.

Some of them are within the reach of a good local team, but to create too many of them would be overkill, since they simply aren’t going to be needed often enough in any one place to make it worthwhile. These are best be done at a regional level, although national co-ordination obviously has a role to play as well.

Civil Liberties Observation Team. Sooner or later, demonstrations and protests will produce an aggressive police response. A team of civil liberties observers should therefore be put together. These need a limited amount of kit: Their own identifying high-viz vests, lanyard cards, business cards with emergency legal contact numbers, notebooks, bodycams and actual camcorders.

While mobile phones now do much the same job, to the average cop, someone waving a mobile around is just another inconvenient gobshite. Even a small camcorder, by contrast, says “connected journalist”. Simply by being there such a team will deter police heavy-handedness. If things do kick off, the footage and testimony of these para-legal activists will give the victims of wrongful arrest and police aggression, or far-left violence, a far better chance of justice.

Team members must be trained in the legal issues surrounding protests and public order, as well as in the use of their kit and considerations of personal safety.

Screen-printing. This is the cheapest and most reliable way to give the movement the ability to turn out large numbers of simple posters – along the lines of old-fashioned newsstands, or as handed out on cheap placards by SWP activists at leftist demonstrations.

There is no need for the sort of expensive multi-colour carousels needed for printing fancy T-shirts. The required headline is put on a silk-screen using a light-hardened gel and a strong light which sets it where ever it is not protected by the template. The unset gel is washed out with a hose and water. The screen is mounted in a simple hinged holder fixed to the edge of the printing workbench, then ink is dragged over the screen with a rubber edged board.

One person does the inking; another puts a fresh blank poster under the screen before each pull. That’s really all there is to it.

You could simply find a tame offset printer, but he will charge you much more and you will have to wait until he has the time to do your order, which will be a tiny job by his standards, scarcely worth his while and likely to go to the back of his jobs queue. You need to be able to spot the opportunity and have several hundred of your posters/placards on the street in a couple of hours.

You can also use the same screen to put your slogan on cheap T-shirts. Again, once you have the basic kit, a stock of supplies and half-an-hour’s training, you can seize the opportunity to lead or dominate a demonstration at the drop of a hat.

By the way, if you only need A3 posters, you could do much the same job, even more easily, with an A3 digital duplicator, but even second-hand they are much more expensive than the basic A4 models which you need for leaflets.

Powerful Projector. Potentially augmented by a more powerful PA system than the airport suitcase types already recommended for local teams. This set -up gives you two rather different abilities:

i) To project giant slogans or images onto targets like town halls or police stations. No damage of any kind is done, leaving a slap-on-the-wrist breach of the peace charge about the only thing the authorities can even think of bringing against you for what can be a devastating propaganda stunt.

ii) To project slide shows, films or even communal karaoke scripts onto walls in venues. Apart from your own internal events, the future uses of this capability will be explained later in this series. For now, just regard this as an ability worth acquiring.

Protest Amplifiers. Long-term, each region should be able to field at least one marching band. Look to the old colliery brass or silver bands for inspiration if they are part of your regional tradition. If not, take a trip to Northern Ireland during the marching season, or to Southport or Glasgow for the 12th to get a clear view of the tribal identity power we need to harness.

Starting and running a band from scratch is not something which is particularly daunting if you happen to be an Ulster Protestant (or living among their genetic and spiritual descendants in ‘Redneck’ America). But for anyone else it’s a massive undertaking. It is without doubt the hardest thing to pull off in this entire list.

All the others are just a matter of willpower and application, but to create a functioning marching band you actually need the right people – not just a group of individuals willing to learn and do it, but also with the innate ability to do it. They have to be willing to learn, you have to find someone who is able and willing to teach them.

It’s also the most expensive project on the list although, given that it’s been done by some 800 or so groups of ordinary working-class chaps out of a total loyalist population of under one million, it is nothing like as out of reach as, for example, a parliamentary election victory against the old elite parties and their populist rivals.

This is probably best viewed as a project which must wait. Successful implementation of some of the others, however, may well provide the rather remarkable couple of individuals you would need to make it happen.

Until then, if you can’t have a band, there’s nothing to stop you having a couple of drums. These raise the temperature and appeal of any protest.

You might like to take a look too at the Carnyx. This is the ancient Celtic war horn, a long brass instrument whose eerie, deep-throated sound frightened even Roman legionaries. It provided the sound track to Boudicca’s rebellion against forced immigration and colonialism and, thanks to experimental archaeologists, you can hear it on YouTube.

You can buy working replicas online for not much more than £100. And it’s simple, as long as someone can blow a note on a wind instrument, they can ‘play’ a carnyx. To do so as well as in this video would be a different matter, but who cares? The 2,000-year-old sound of indigenous resistance to invasion, blaring out over our own streets, what’s not to like?

Imagine the impact of a couple of these at demonstrations against illegal migrant hotels and HMOs! Like the far more expensive Lambeg drums used by Ulster loyalists, they say “We’re here. We’re not going away. Don’t mess with us!”

Radio Ham Network. Most nationalists understand that revolutionary change would be needed even to stand a chance of “turning things around”. The serious ones know that the first hint of serious public disorder (and hence of pre-revolutionary potential) always leads to the authorities cutting off all communications systems in order to leave the public in the dark and disorientate and isolate their opponents.

Why on earth, then, do even those who bother to try to build IRL organisations do so exclusively through communications channels totally controlled by our enemies – in particular mobile phones and the Internet? Since these are certain to be denied us in any sort of crisis, any movement which relies on them is guaranteed to be paralysed at the very moment that real opportunity presents itself. Be honest, can you think of anything more cretinous?

There are only two possible answers to this threat. First, to create a movement made of operationally autonomous local groups, each with the capacity to work effectively of its own accord, without orders or supplies from ‘above’. The local leaders must not only be equipped to operate on their own, but also have objectives and prior training which allow them to do so.

Second, to establish a web of short-wave radio hams. In the event of prolonged trouble and really intense censorship, an inability to exchange information through conventional channels would become a really serious handicap. The short-wave sets, aerials, etc needed to give adequate ranges are not outrageously priced, training is readily available and the work is ideal for geekier individuals who are unlikely to be suitable for community work which involves interacting with ‘normies’ anyway.

Target Activities

The suggestions listed above give two dozen very constructive things which can easily be done by a small group of committed patriots. This is in addition to the more general community action proposals put forward previously. Nor are these lists exhaustive; depending on local circumstances and abilities, ambitious groups which think outside the box can surely come up with more.

At a local level, virtually all of them can be done by a lone, wholly autonomous group, something which makes these tactics particularly valuable under the sort of highly repressive and intolerant leftist regimes which we can envisage arising in some circumstances as the ‘West’ spirals towards full-blown demographic collapse.

On the other hand, they are also very suitable as target activities for the local units of a fully functional nationalist movement. BNP Groups and Branches used to qualify for official recognition as such by reaching certain levels of political activism – fund-raising, distributing quotas of literature, adopting and working target wards, and so on.

The most effective strategy is national co-ordination combined with multiple local capabilities. Decentralised local leadership and decision-making allow continued impact even in the chaos which accompanies crises. The movement should be equipped and trained to respond to national calls, but also capable of local initiative.

In a movement which avoids doomed electoral battles on the enemies’ home turf, local units would qualify by establishing and sustaining a certain number of targets from the approved list of asset acquisitions and community programmes.

That is not to say that the operations we have considered do not have electoral significance, on the contrary, some of them have significant potential to feed into conventional party politics.

But, for the foreseeable future, elections to seats which bring the winners salaries are for populists. By leaving them free rein there, genuine nationalists are free to concentrate on our own turf - militant organisation.

Where the populists win – even if only taking control of a local authority – well-organised nationalists can defend any limited advances the populists make, and press for more. Populists can and will ignore isolated nationalists, but they cannot ignore people who can deliver blocks of votes and lend them local activists and assets in times of real need.

Organising For the Long-Run

There will, of course, be hurdles to be overcome. Larger items of kit need secure storage. Most political activists have a shelf-life of just a couple of years, ‘burnout’ is a very common problem in minor political parties .Whether the more satisfying and productive sort of work outlined here would hold individuals for longer is yet to be seen, but it is in any case clear that it would be necessary to find ways to secure ownership of assets for the collective group, and to create systems for short generational handovers and asset recovery whenever activists fade themselves out.

Acquiring assets is, needless to say, only the first stage. The team has to be able to use them. Not like the first time, pouring over the instruction sheets and YouTube lessons. Practice, training, dummy runs and regular use must make using the equipment second nature to all the team, while the practical results of initiatives which effect the public should make the team leaders increasingly popular and influential people in the local community.

I am not saying that every local group must acquire every single asset and skill listed here. The purpose of such a long list is to give everybody something which gives them a starting point which appeals, fits their current situation and isn’t too daunting. Further targets can be adopted further down the line as confidence and teams grow.

The more things are done, the more it becomes possible to do, steadily increasing the ability of the movement overall to make or seize opportunities, rather than sitting watching populists playing the System’s electoral games and then complaining when, even when they win, our people don’t.

The starting point is to find ways to take a small group of possibly inward-looking nationalists and turn them into effective and flexible campaigners, and for their efforts to begin to instil greater awareness, confidence and ambition in the broader community of which they are part. Nationalists must lead, not by obsessing about the perfection of their ideas, but by real life example.

Making a Start

When should this start? It already has. While much of the online ‘right-wing’ has been obsessed with the failings of Nigel Farage, the ‘Counter-Jihad’ (for and against), migrant boats and the succession of ‘promising’ would-be parties, growing numbers of serious, practical nationalists have quietly got on with the job of building their own organisational structures at local level.

RTC teams, small businesses, cultural associations, home-schooling groups, community patrols, regular folk music sessions, buying pieces of woodland for rural and team activities, getting on the committees of working men’s and veterans’ clubs, setting up tea and sandwiches runs for the homeless, unofficial cub-scout groups run in conjunction with traditionalist churches – all these and more are in operation right now. The revolution will not be televised until the very end, but it is already beginning.

If you’ve been around for a while, you’ll know that material like this is special - and really important. So how about finally becoming a paid subscriber? I need help to spread these ideas and develop them further, and it’s a real boost when people show their appreciation. Thank you!
