Helping to Educate the Public about British Nationalism

The writer Henry Williamson (1895-1977) who had over 50 books published, was a soldier, a farmer, a visionary and above all a nationalist.

He is best known for his unsentimental and enthralling tales of our countryside epitomised in Tarka the Otter and Salar the Salmon, and it is often overlooked that Henry Williamson also wrote books like The Wet Flanders Plain and The Patriot’s Progress, which recounted his experiences in the trenches during the Great War.

He also recorded a social history of Great Britain in his The Village Books, The Flax of Dream and the 15 volumes of his finest work A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight.

Initially, he was a regular broadcaster on the BBC with his Green Fields and Pavements talks and his Hopeful Traveller series which attracted huge audiences who enjoyed listening to his passionate campaigning for Britain’s ‘land and people’.

But gradually he was sidelined by the establishment as his call of national self-sufficiency and his warnings of the destructive nature of globalisation became out of step with the liberal left’s growing influence during the 1960s.

In later life Henry Williamson became disenchanted with politics as there was no political party with which he could feel comfortable with. Many have suggested that he might have felt at home with a Nationalist Party.

The media and chattering classes like to portray the British  Patriots as a negative force but that is not the case.

British Nationalism offers a positive and realistic alternative to the stagnant global politics of today, and the writings of Henry Williamson have an important role to play in educating the public as to the real philosophy of the British Nationalism.

  1. Henry Williamson supported Mosley’s Union Movement and the cause of European Union from 1948 until his death. He wrote for the UM magazine The European and would never have supported a party opposed to Europe. He was a great man who understood the importance of a sustainable and sel-sufficient economy.

  2. No, he believed in a European Union, but how do you know the one that is in power today is the European Union? the True European Union would not attempt to flood its brethren with immigrants and try to take and make other country’s laws. No, the EU was supposed to be an alliance, not another country all together! The current EU is false, and only the BNP opposes it.

    • Henry Williamson believed in European Union because of his experience in the First World War. We already had millions of Third World immigrants before we joined the EU in 1973. According to Andrew Brons only a third of our immigrants are from the EU – but they are white Christians. Our laws have always been modified by outside influences. You cannot discount the Roman Empire, the Anglo-Saxon invasion, the Norman Conquest and the French and American revolutions. We are an island – not another planet.

  3. I must admit I am not familiar with this writer. I have heard of two of the books, but I do not think I have ever read them – nor do I know of his BBC pieces.

    What I do know is, however, is that the British National Party (and nationalists in general) are widely misunderstood and misrepresented.

    It is my firm belief that the majority of the public do not even begin to understand the rationale and reasons behind our viewpoints and our policies.

    We are often closed books which they do not seek to open and read because they are trained like Pavlovian dogs into shunning everything about us even though they have never spent longer than a single minute trying to understand us and why we have the positions and policies we do.

    In their ignorance, they cannot ‘see it’ and thus do not understand it, so it does not make any sense to them at all – that then translates, in their mind, into *us* not having any sense!.

    We can often write an awful lot that ‘grabs the bull by the horns’ – but we can often fail to remember that the public do not understand why we are grabbing those horns at all and see it as just dangerous and idiotic.

    Whilst we haven’t the luxury of time to baby-sit the entire nation and wean them away from the packets of formula milk they are fed on, perhaps we do need a few levels of introduction that helps formulate a more rounded insight into why we are here and why we feel our policies in the manifesto are important and a viable alternative that is worth striving for.

    Unless we can explain ourselves sufficiently well enough, I think people will just continue to try and hammer a square peg into a round hole and continue to be told that we are idiots for merely wishing to put the round peg into the round hole – because we have assessed the layout of the shapes on offer and had a little bit more nutrition from mother natures’ milk than the packeted imitations they have suckled on for so long.

  4. One way is to take the plethora of Videos off youtube showing what is going on in places like Malmo and burn them to DVD.
    Give them information they are being denied by the MSM.

    • Ade, May I be so bold as to promote my two documentaries?

      Tales From A Transforming Britain:
      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFCHeJEBZHo

      An extensive compilation of news and investigations from mainstream news outlets to show how the nation is facing changes and problems.

      The Lost Voices Of Britain:
      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qoi8B62w64

      A compilation of interviews and issues relating to the transformation of this country, from the indigenous British perspective. Again, all sourced from various other outlets and carefully compiled.

      Both are pretty long, but perhaps as a whole they tell their own story.

      I realise the down-side of long documentaries is the lack of attention span out there in the non-nationalist world, but I decided to make the documentaries anyway.

      Yes, we absolutely do need information that is being denied in our media outlets (because people generally haven’t got a clue what is happening in Europe with these issues) – but even the stuff they do let through in regards to our own country is damaging enough when compiled together rather than ‘spread out’ into “isolated” incidents in the rolling news media.

      Cheers.
