- Status: Active
- Founded: April 2023 (split from Patriotic Alternative)
- Chairman: Kenny Smith
- Electoral Commission: Registered political party (NOT a CIC as previously assumed)
- Ideology: Explicitly fascist, white nationalist, ethnonationalist
- Origin: Splinter from Patriotic Alternative — many of PA's most effective organisers left to form Homeland
Role in Ecosystem
Homeland Party is described by Hope not Hate as "Britain's largest fascist political party." It formed in April 2023 when a rebel faction split from Patriotic Alternative, taking many of PA's most effective organisers.
This is significant because:
- It's a registered political party — must declare donations >£7,500 to Electoral Commission
- It splintered from PA, meaning there may be asset/funding transfers
- It represents the "organised fascist" end of the spectrum operating within electoral politics
- Internal factionalism (rebel faction demanded ejection of chairman Kenny Smith) suggests organisational instability

- Kenny Smith background check
Red flags:
- Explicitly fascist party operating as registered political party
- Splintered from UK's largest neo-Nazi group (PA)
- Overlap with other far-right groups (Restore Britain, Nationalist Society)
- Internal factionalism suggests potential for further splintering
Correction from earlier research: Homeland is NOT a Community Interest Company (CIC) — it's a registered political party. This changes the regulatory framework (Electoral Commission, not Companies House CIC rules).
