As founder in 1962 of the National Socialist Movement, which he led until its reorganisation in 1968 as the British Movement (which he also led), Colin Jordan made a reputation of sorts for himself as the most intemperate voice of the far Right in the liberalising decade of the 1960s.
Modelling himself as a history student at Cambridge on Arnold Leese, whose prewar Imperial Fascist League had advocated the gassing of Jews, Jordan was, principally, virulently anti-Semitic. Supporters of his NSM carried out numerous arson attacks against Jewish property in London — though Jordan himself escaped being implicated in these.
