By Mike Speakman, Law & Order Spokesman 30th April 2020 There is much speculation about the government’s timing of the lockdown; were they too early or were they too late? Many of the government’s opponents claim they were too late, citing South Korea or Taiwan who were very quick to introduce lockdowns. Taiwan in fact…
By Suarav Dutt, Author & Political Analyst 30th March 2020 Guest articles do not necessarily represent the views of The For Britain Movement. Is this really a lockdown? Where are the police vigilance groups making sure Britons aren’t gathering en masse, hosting barbecues in wide open spaces,cramming together in tube carriages without face masks and…
14th March 2020 Chairman Update Yesterday, Government announced that Local and mayoral elections in England will be postponed for a year to May 2021 due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Anne Marie Waters January 14th 2020 The response of our leaders to the Brexit referendum result taught us a stark lesson, but a valuable one. It revealed that the majority of MPs did not wish to keep their promise and withdraw from the European Union. They felt fully comfortable in doing this, showing that…
By Mike Speakman, Policing Spokesman 13th January 2020 There is a new initiative from the Police Chiefs Council to merge police forces. The last decades have seen an increasing centralisation of policing, geared more to satisfying central government objectives which often have little to do with real policing issues. I believe the government and civil…
16th December 2019 We now have 5 years of a Conservative government with a large majority. Brexit, even if not the pure form we would prefer, is happening and so it is time for the UK to start focussing on other issues. It is time for a patriotic party to fill the vacuum left by…
Well done to our Hull members who attended last night’s BBC Question Time. It is wonderful to see genuine people with genuine concerns grill the current crop of inept politicians on issues that the general public faces. Hull is a great city full of real down to earth people, who are friendly and full of…
For Britain wishes to provide you with an update on a case that has been in and out of the news in NW England for some time. It is regarding a long battle over the supply of Halal food to schools in Lancashire (that finally ended in 2018 due to the Council’s action) but has…
By Anne Marie Waters 7th November 2019 Tom Bower has given his book an interesting title: ‘Dangerous Hero’. I would say he is half right. Dangerous yes, but no hero, certainly not to the majority of British people. I recently finished reading this astounding book, and while the contents are known, they are nonetheless shocking….
By Anne Marie Waters 25th September 2019 It continues. This is becoming more and more alarming, and the established elite more and more remote. The Supreme Court has ruled that Boris Johnson’s proroguing of Parliament was unlawful, and MPs have gone back to work; many of them with the sole intention of preventing Brexit. The…
Press Statement : 24th September 2019 The For Britain Movement strongly disagrees with the decision reached today by the Supreme Court that the Queen’s prorogation of parliament is void. As pointed out in the Law Spokesman’s blog yesterday, the principle that parliament is sovereign is at the heart of UK’s unwritten constitution, but it is…
By Paul Ellis, Legal Officer 19th September 2019 The news watching public have sat through more parliamentary votes and debates over standing orders and Erskine May over the past three years than is normal for a whole lifetime. The respite from more Brexit that came with prorogation of parliament has proved brief as the battle…
By Anne Marie Waters, Party Leader 10th September 2019 Some things don’t age very well – especially Jeremy Corbyn’s demands for a general election! It must be embarrassing for Labour at present. Not only do they have to crawl backwards on their hitherto insistence on an election, but they find themselves in a position where…
By Anne Marie Waters, Party Leader 4th September 2019 The best case scenario is easy. We get out on the 31st of October with a trade deal that allows businesses to do business. Tariff-free movement of goods and services between the EU and the UK is entirely reasonable, and entirely doable if parties are acting…
by Paul Ellis, Legal Officer 29th August 2019 When I was a teacher of law, one of my favourite classes concerned the rule of law. To make a potentially rather dull and theoretical topic more engaging for my students, I devised a fiendishly complicated game. The game had a board with a start and a…
Here we go again. Since we voted to leave the European Union, we have been going around in circles, and now we’ve arrived back at the start.
By Mike Speakman (Law & Order Spokesperson) 22nd August 2019 One of the themes drummed into me at basic police training was that it is imperative that the police do not take sides. Respect and trust for the police was seen as conditional on our fairness and impartiality. I soon experienced practical examples of this….
The UK probably isn’t the first country to spring to mind when one thinks of political oppression. The Freedom Index rates us at 33rd out of 180…
I’ve just been talking to a couple of my friends in Parliament, and it looks like my worst fears have been realised – Labour are going to take a vote of no-confidence to the table as soon as possible.
On Sunday 14th July 2019, Philip Hammond made a statement which could be the perfect example of how idiotic the mindset of a remainer can be!
