 * Racial tensions and the return of the Union Movement

Just a note to mention that the clashes between ethnic groups have been misidentified as " a new phenomenon in Britain". The first recorded is the 1919 race riots: http://www.open.ac.uk/researchprojects/makingbritain/content/1919-race-riots — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.156.79.22 (talk) 08:10, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

Overreliance on Oswaldmosley.net?
A source that the introduction of this article and its first two paragraphs lean on almost exclusively is oswaldmosley.net, a website ran by former UM organizer Robert Edwards on behalf of the European Action. From a cursory glance it does not provide accurate historical information; for instance, it makes bold claims about conspiring Jews, stockbrokers, Tories and and communists undermining Britain from within, providing no sources for its own claims. I can appreciate such a source for basic claims, but I cannot help but feel slightly queasy at using such a coloured source to make claims such as that the UM is "described as post-fascist". It being described as post-fascist by their own successors, in my opinion, does not a balanced account make.

That said, with my limited research time, I could not find sources that either confirm or contrast this and other claims made in the first two paragraphs about the UM's political leanings, profile and mission. T-Nod (talk) 17:47, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
