Entity: Homeland Party

Entity: Homeland Party

Semantic Summary

Fascist, white nationalist political party founded in April 2023 by Kenny Smith — a former Patriotic Alternative organiser and ex-BNP administrator — after he split from Mark Collett's Patriotic Alternative, taking most of PA's Scottish branch and much of the West Midlands. Briefly the largest fascist organisation in Britain at around 1,400 members, it was distinguished by Smith's "sensible nationalism" strategy: careful branding, euphemistic language, and an electoral "ladder strategy" borrowed from BNP and NF playbooks. It built genuine international links, with Smith attending European remigration summits and a Homeland delegation touring the Bundestag with AfD MPs. By mid-2026 it is in terminal collapse — Smith absent from social media since March, recruitment halted, no summer camp, a shambolic conference, and replacement by Restore Britain at the May 2026 Remigration Summit in Porto — with most activists migrated to Restore Britain, though it remains registered with the Electoral Commission.

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).
