British Jobbik Society drinks party

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

This Sunday Jobbik, the Hungarian neo-Arrow Cross and neo-fascist party and political ally of the BNP, are holding a drinks party in North London.

Zoltan Fuzessy with BNP leader Nick Griffin

The party is in aid of the setting up of the British Jobbik Society, whose aim is that Hungarians living in Great Britain “understand and support the national values and the programme of Jobbik”.

Guest speakers to this event include UK based Zoltan Fuzessy – chief of staff to Csanad Szegedi MEP – and Tamas Feher – head of the British Jobbik Association.

Jobbik are a revolting party. They’re an anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, pro-Hamas, gypsy-hating, conspiratorial and homophobic mob.

Demagogic Jobbik leaders regularly incite hatred against Hungary’s vulnerable Jewish, gay and Roma population, which in some cases has lead to extreme violence. See the report on Jobbik members involvement in a firebombing and shooting of a Roma family.

Nothing British is deeply concerned about the incremental rise of pan-European National Socialism and the threat it poses to our gentle British democratic values of decency and standing up the little guy. 

In the past, Britain has fought long and hard against foreign fascism and we want nothing to do with it today.

More on this to follow.

Violence breaks out at Jobbik rally

Brown shirted Jobbik militia-men

Hungarian police in riot gear broke up a recruitment meeting for Jobbik’s outlawed  neo-fascist militia, the Hungarian Guard.

Some 50 uniformed militiamen were on hand last Friday at a beer hall at Csepel, a poor industrial suburb of the Hungarian capital, when some 200 police arrived to break up the meeting to launch a national recruitment campaign.

The commander of the Guard called for reinforcements, and some 400 guardsmen were rushed to the scene, but diplomatic bargaining ended the confrontation. Police made three arrests.

A landmark court ruling earlier this year banned the paramilitary Guard, the private army of the extreme nationalist Jobbik Party. The Guard displays the colors and marches to the tunes of the defunct Arrow Cross, a Hungarian movement that murdered thousands of Jews, Gypsies and political dissidents during the Holocaust. The ruling also banned the uniform.

Csepel council members are organizing an all-party motion to reinforce an earlier local government decision declaring the Guard “unwelcome” in the district. This follows a brawl last week at Sajobabony in the impoverished northeast of Hungary where hundreds of Guardsmen and their supporters clashed with Gypsy residents outraged by racist attitudes expressed at a Jobbik public meeting.

Hungary’s Prime Minister Gordon Bajnai said: “Those who try to run an organisation banned by the court and march in its uniform, those who refuse to obey police orders and repeatedly provoke others, and those who go against the constitution of the Republic of Hungary must expect apt retribution”.

Last month Jobbik and the BNP entered into a new formal political alliance in the European Parliament.

James Bethell in the Observer

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

James Bethell, director of Nothing British, has appeared in last weekend’s Observer regarding our campaign against Kristina Morvai and her invitation to an extremist rally being held by the Palestinian Return Centre.

A spokesman for the campaign confirmed that Morvai’s invitation had been withdrawn following protests. “We did not want to get into trouble, so we decided to exclude her,” he said. “We want the conference to be about raising awareness about Palestine.”

“I am pleased to hear the PRC have withdrawn their invitation to Jobbik’s Krisztina Morvai,” said James Bethell, the director of Nothing British, a group that campaigns against the BNP. “She is one of Europe’s leading neo-fascists, a senior member of Nick Griffin’s political alliance and an MEP for a revolting party.”
