The british union of fascists, oswald mosley`s group, the black shirts, they were banned in britain in 1940. and max mosley`s dad, sir oswald mosley, ended up spending three years in world war ii, 1940 to 1943, interned in the u.k. as basically an enemy of the state. he spent that time in prison, as did max mosley`s mother.

Famously in 1936, oswald mosley led a march of his british black shirts through a mostly jewish neighborhood, in the east end of london. what resulted was what they called the "battle of cable street", where oswald mosley and his fascists basically got the snot beaten out of them when east london rose up against them and beat them up.

Oswald mosley`s movement, it was a big movement. it was obviously anti-immigrant, anti-semitic, it was populist. mosley wanted to replace the parliamentary system of government in britain with a government that was based on business interests, that was based on the idea that business interests were the real interests of that country and business interests. and reorganizing the government to serve business interests, that would be a way to get stuff done faster and more efficiently.

Sir oswald mosley thought his job is not just keep britain from going to war with his beloved germany, he saw it as his job to organize a complementary fascist movement inside the u.k. so, he formed this organization as the british union of fascists in `32. in 1936, they changed their name to the british union of fascists and national socialists

I just don't need cable news. there's nothing that happens on cable news that i don't already know. i'm talking about just the acquisition of information, learning things. what is on cable tv is not that. cable news isn't news. what is happening on cable news right now is a political assassination of not just donald trump, but of ideas and cultural mores that i believe in.

We all now have to decide whether we`re comfortable using this word, weather fascism is too over the top to use in this context of our politics right now in our country or whether it helps because it`s accurate, to basically describe this as america`s sir oswald mosley moment.
