Biographical History

The British Movement was a British neo-Nazi group. It was founded as the National Socialist Movement in 1962, changing its name to the British Movement in 1968. The BM campaigned on an openly neo-Nazi platform, with members wearing the Swastika and picture of Adolf Hitler appearing on party literature. As a result of personal struggles, about half of the membership joined the newly-launched British National Party in 1982. The BM failed to recover from the split and was liquidated in September 1983.
