Description | Material regarding Oswald Mosley, a prominent fascist in the UK, and other far-right organising in the UK. The material appears to have been collected by Maurice Orbach, General Secretary of the Trades Advisory Council (TAC) from 1940 to 1979, for his 'Fascist activities' files. This material consists of:
- press cuttings regarding far-right organising in the UK by Mosley and the 'blackshirts', and anti-fascist actions to disrupt his meetings; - leaflets and circulars from Mosley and far-right organisations; - membership cards for the Union Movement, a far-right political party founded by Mosley; - Maurice Orbach’s correspondence, including two antisemitic letters he received from members of the public; - an article written by Orbach on Mosley's 1968 memoir. |
