London Forum

The London Forum is a loose organisation of individuals based in London but with regional headquarters across the United Kingdom. Emerging in 2011, meetings were regularly held by the organisation. These ​have been met with significant protests by AntiFa (which, however, showed up in small numbers, always <100) and have been infiltrated by journalists, most notably a 2015 investigation of the group by The Mail on Sunday with the help of Searchlight, an anti-fascist magazine that focuses on the British politics.

It described itself as "A forum for Identitarian/Traditionalist/Alt-Right and other interesting speakers in Central London" and could be contacted via a yahoo mail. Moreover, it also specified that it opposed "globalism, cultural and non-cultural Marxism" and, in direct opposition, supported "white ethnicity and its civilisation, liberty of expression, and religious tradition"; it could therefor also be described as Christian. It's primary objective has been to create a "[...] leadership cadre, for a new intelligentsia, for a new mass media".

It had several branches all throughout the UK and developed some internationally, particularly in New York and Atlanta, with the help of Greg Johnson. These sections have an ample degree of independece, as noted by the fact that the Southwest branch continued operations for at least a year after the shutdown of the London Forum.

“	We think it is time the tyranny of Orwellian political correctness were deposed by classically rooted yet progressive European values.	”
—Stead Steadman, Member of the London Forum

History

“	The London Forum [...] comprises a range of people who care about their country and its demographic future and who wish to register their disagreement with the nigh ubiquitous enforced agenda of multiracialism and multiculturalism that threatens to destroy our identity irreversibly [...] it's the home of the UK alt-right	”
—Jeremy Bedford Turner

The London Forum was created in 2011 following Jeremy Bedford Turner's split with Troy Southgate.

It held meetings and discussions in the England region - though the majority solely in Central London - with increasing frequency, reaching their apex in 2016/17. These were hosted primarily in various "Inns" such as The Kensington Holiday Inn.

Following a 2017 exposé by Hope Not Hate and the imprisonment of Jeremy B.T., it ceased operation in its main Central London branch. Among the greatest controversies which this report highlighted was the participation of members of the banned National Action and, to a lesser extent, the participation of militants from the National Front and British National Party. Particular focus on these elements was shown by the Board Deputies of British jews, which had already opposed the groups on the basis of their guests and the responses given to antifascist magazines such as the Independent, most prominently the one shown below:

“	We abhor the criminalisation of opinions and defend the right of anyone to question the conventional narrative concerning any events that took place in any period of history; and we regard the nature of Zionism, the rôle of Israel in international affairs and the influence of thejewsDiaspora upon culture and politics as being legitimate subjects for discussion	”

Actions

The London Forum focused primarily on conferences and discussions in England, particularly in the London area. The topics covered any topic which could be tied to the "Alt-Right" in some way, from the truth about the Holohoax to Oswald Mosley to movie reviews. It featured speakers such as David Irving and Jason Reza Jorjani.

Internet presence

The full extent of the London Forum's internet presence is unknown; it can be ascertained that they operated a YouTube channel which was later banned, though not before reaching at the very least 500.000 total channel views (a likely underreported figure as it was provided by antifascists).
