Keith Thompson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Keith Thompson was a leading member of the Union Movement, which he joined in the 1960s whilst completing his National service. An Odinist, Thompson went on to become a leading figure in the Action Party, when the UM changed its name to that in 1973 after pressure from Thompson, Fred Shepherd et al. It soon after reverted to the name of Union Movement after Thompson resigned.
Following a series of clashes with Jeffrey Hamm (who was effectively leader of the Action Party given the retirement of Oswald Mosley) Thompson quit the Party, along with Mike Griffin, in the mid 1970s to join the League of Saint George, an umbrella movement of the far right. Thompson continues to run Steven Books, as well as a more recent venture, the Searchlight Victims Support Group, which claims to oppose the work of Searchlight magazine and has actively sought to recruit from the Trades Union Congress. He has since been accused of working for Searchlight [1].
