The Philosophy of Fascism
Being a lecture delivered by Sir Oswald Mosley at the English Speaking Union on Wednesday, 22nd March 1933. OUR opponents allege that Fascism has no historic background or philosophy, and it is my task this afternoon [...]
Usury the Primary Issue
‘Usury’ by its strictest definition is any interest charged on a loan. It is regarded as a sin by Islam and by Catholicism, and Judaism prohibits usury charged to fellow Hebrews. Aristotle condemned usury, and so [...]
Europe a Nation
EUROPE a Nation is an idea which anyone can understand. It is simple but should not on that account be rejected; most decisive, root ideas are simple. Ask any child what is a nation? He will [...]
Power Over Finance
To play with the problem of finance, merely by nationalising the Bank of England which for all practical purposes is nationalised already, is only worthy of the make-believe of a Labour Party which has no serious [...]
The Idea of ‘Europe’
‘Europe’ is more than an economic region from which bloated bureaucrats and political nonentities draw salaries and perks. Before the conniving Count Kalergi and his banker friends, and before cabals such as the Bilderberg Group, there [...]
Why did you always think an economic crisis is sooner or later inevitable?
The approach of economic crisis has been obvious for years past. I gave my reasons for thinking this in my resignation speech from the government. Each one of them is now slowly being proved true. The [...]
What are your views about race?
Let me state quite simply that in my view a man should be as determined to preserve his own race as to preserve his own family. Then we will have a look at what science has [...]
What is your attitude to Israel?
I adhere to the policy of a Jewish national home, which I suggested in The Alternative as follows:- “For over two thousand years the Jews have asked for a national home, and sought again to become a [...]
Mosley’s Views on anti-Semitism
More drivel is talked about the Jews and anti-Semitism than most subjects; both ways. The anti-Semitic view that all Jews are born wicked, or that all Jews should be the sacred objects of the system, seems [...]
What is your attitude to the Jews?
I am not an anti-Semite. Anti-Semitism is hatred of all Jews on account of their race. I attack some Jews on account of what they do, but I never attack any Jew on account of his [...]
Do you think some races are superior to others?
Superior is a term I never use. Different, is the word I use. What is superiority? It is a loose and generally ridiculous term. All men may be equal in the sight of God. But when [...]
In some of your writings you suggest for a new way of thinking, for a higher form of man?
This was the theme of an introduction to Goethe’s Faust that I wrote some years ago, and also of an essay on Wagner and Shaw and a review of Professor Heller’s interesting but controversial book The [...]
Would things not be more peaceful if we were all one race?
Why should they be? The Europeans are all closely related, yet they have fought each other far too long. The escapists’ answer that things would be more peaceful if we were all the same is no [...]
Foreign Policy
Our foreign policy should also be the subject of a book in itself, but the main principles may here be stated very briefly. The measures of national reconstruction already described involve automatically a change in our [...]
Policy for Europe
How are we to regard the Union of Europe? - As something to be postponed so long as possible because it drags us out of our island fortress and exposes us to contact and competition with [...]
