For approximately six or seven years now following the rapid decline of the BNP, the nationalist movement has fragmented and drifted, largely without direction, and most importantly without any one group within the movement achieving the critical mass required to either propel it to a position of electoral promise or to enable it to eclipse all other nationalist groups and become the de facto vehicle of choice for those campaigning in our nation’s interests.

There were approximately 12,000 members of the BNP at its height in 2009 and in that year 943,598 people voted for the party in the European Union election. Now however, the party’s membership discounting life members who are no longer actively supporting the party, has fallen to fewer than 200 people making the party significantly smaller than the National Front, and the combined membership of all British nationalist, White nationalist or ethno-nationalist groups and political parties across the country is fewer than 1,000 people.

Worse still, those 1,000 nationalists are fragmented and divided, sometimes on an ideological basis, but more often than not on the basis of personal hatreds, rivalries and factional feuding, into more than a dozen different groups, and discounting Western Spring, none of them has a metaphorical ‘pot to piss in’.

This however has not stopped die-hard campaigners regularly embarrassing themselves in futile election campaigns, fought on a shoe-string, in which they often receive fewer votes than the Monster Raving Loony candidate, and sometimes less votes than the ten nominations needed in order to stand as a candidate in an election at all. Furthermore it has not stopped them holding marches in which thirty or so people make a spectacle of themselves, shuffling out of step to a dismal sound reminiscent of a two year old beating an empty biscuit tin with a spoon!

This is a harsh assessment I know, but it is the truth and it is largely self-inflicted, and if we are to have any hope of achieving our objective of restoring the British people to primacy in our own land, we must accept the truth and act accordingly – that is, we must do things differently in future.

As I first stated more than five years ago, “if we keep on doing what we’ve always done, we’ll keep on getting what we’ve always got”, and so far, electioneering and street demonstrations in the current socio-political environment have achieved nothing but to reduce us to a shadow of what we formerly were.

The key words in the above paragraph are “in the current socio-political environment”, because many people look back to 2009 — to the glory days of the BNP — and they deduce that the BNP ‘did not do so badly’ through electioneering and street demonstrations. What such people fail to realise however, is that the socio-political environment has for us worsened significantly since 2009.

In 2009 the BNP managed to win two of the seventy-eight European parliamentary seats allocated to the UK (that’s 2½% of the total); they had one of the twenty-five seats on the Greater London Authority (4% of the total); and they had fifty-five elected councillors across the UK, out of a total of 20,588 (a quarter of 1% of the total). Therefore while the BNP were more successful than any British nationalist political party has ever been, they were by any objective measure a long, long way away from political power, and now eight years later in our much reduced circumstances we are much further away than that.

The socio-political climate has changed in that following the self-destruction of the BNP, UKIP have replaced the BNP as the premier patriotic party in the UK and while UKIP exists, even in its current reduced state following Brexit, it will act as a ‘road block’, blocking the electoral path to power of any other right-wing, nationalist or patriotic political party.

Furthermore, in response to public disquiet over Islamic terrorism and following constant campaigning by Jewish and Muslim advocacy groups, there has been a hardening of the attitude of government and the police towards any public or private expressions of dissent regarding enforced multiculturalism. Even prior to the 2015 general election, Theresa May, then the Home Secretary, was pledging to introduce banning orders for ‘extremist groups’ and extremism disruption orders for ‘extremists who spread hate but do not break existing laws’. As a consequence the catch-all clauses within existing ‘hate speech’ legislation and the Terrorism Act 2000 are now being routinely used in ways that were never initially intended, to disrupt the lives of nationalist activists and to criminalise legitimate and lawful nationalist resistance to the genocide of our people.

In response to government pressure, IT companies like Google, Facebook and Twitter have also started to actively disrupt the online activity of nationalists, banning us from social media and now taking steps to deny Internet access to some of the most prominent nationalist websites.

For the last two years I have been calling for nationalist groups to participate in a convergence process in the hope that we can bring the warring factions together and thereby achieve the critical mass needed to break out of the downward spiral in which we find ourselves. So far, other than responding appreciatively to the hospitality provided at events Western Spring have organised, the response from the leaders of most other nationalist groups has been unenthusiastic at best.

It has been said that trying to organise nationalists is rather like herding cats, in that there is a distinct disinclination on the part of most individuals towards moving in the direction indicated by any aspiring cat-herd. This is a generalisation of course, as there are nationalists who intelligently are prepared to co-operate with their comrades and conform when the organisation to which they belong demonstrates leadership, but we are in the minority.

There are in excess of a dozen nationalist organisations sharing less than 1,000 members and we are all rendered in varying degrees ineffective as a result, and yet we still find that two more nationalist groups have announced their existence in recent months alone, and there are more to come.

One would think that bearing in mind the dire state of our nation, nationalists of whatever stamp would be prepared to compromise and set aside their differences in order to bring about movement wide unity and the emergence of a single organisation with the numbers and wherewithal needed to grow and expand our influence, but no, it seems that even the looming genocide of our people is not enough of an incentive to induce many to co-operate and we must ask why this is?

This is a question that I have been wrestling with in recent months and I think I have now identified the root of our problem, which can be explained through the following analogy:

In any population of people there are those who are prepared to co-operate and to conform and there are those that are not, and if we imagine a saucepan containing a salt water solution, the molecules of water that make up the water content of the solution represent people who are prepared to co-operate and conform, while the much smaller number of molecules of salt represent those who are not.

Under normal conditions the salt water solution maintains its volume, just as the human group it represents remains united by the will of the co-operative and conformist majority, but if the socio-political climate is made hostile and a burner is turned on beneath the saucepan, the water molecules respond to that heat by evaporating, leaving an increasingly salty solution behind, disproportionately made up of the least co-operative and least conformist individuals.

Over time, if the heat continues or is turned up, as Theresa May’s government has turned up the heat, more and more water evaporates and the solution becomes saltier and saltier until only a very densely salty residue is left composed of people who are prepared to die rather than submit to the ‘heat’ applied by the establishment.

The nationalist movement today is composed of many courageous individuals who are stubbornly resisting the pressure upon us to submit to multiracialism and accept our genocide happily, but this strength that we have, this capacity to resist and refuse to conform and co-operate with our treasonous government, is also our greatest weakness, because it makes us less predisposed to co-operate and conform — even amongst ourselves — even when our very survival and the survival of our race depends upon it.

The remainder of 2017 and 2018 will therefore see a change of emphasis within Western Spring, away from attempting to unite the nationalist movement and targeted more towards winning what the Alt-Right call ‘normies’ to our cause. If we are to build a mass movement we need to attract back the ‘water molecules’ that have floated away, and furthermore attract ‘water molecules’ that have never before occupied the ‘saucepan’ of our movement. We will direct our efforts primarily towards winning the support of people who may have never been nationalists or politically active before. There are tens of millions of them.

We will of course continue to work with those groups and individual nationalists who desire greater unity, and I am overwhelmed with gratitude and admiration for those nationalists and patriots who have already pledged themselves to our cause, but we will leave those groups who fail to respond to whatever fate befalls them.

Our raison d’etre is to secure the future survival and wellbeing of our people and to restore our people to primacy in our own land. There must be no place within our movement for people whose preoccupation with denigrating fellow nationalists over some real or imagined slight, or whose preoccupation with petty personal rivalries and jealousies, takes precedence over our sacred mission.

Are you part of the salt, or part of the solution?
