Tom Holmes

Thomas Frank Holmes (born 1931) was the chairman of the far-right British political party, the National Front and a long standing member of the movement,[1] he has been involved in Nationalist politics since 1958.[2]

Holmes is a strong supporter of European nationalism and has stated: "I have contacts with people all over Europe: Austria, Italy, France, Germany, Spain, Greece, Serbia, but none of these are official contacts, we have unofficial contacts, yes, we support any European nationalist party"[3] He has also been highly critical of the British National Party (BNP), claiming that they are no longer truly white nationalists and condemning them for having a Sikh columnist in the party newspaper.
