Lucy Brown,Yaxley-Lennon's erstwhile pal, is participating in the #greatnorthrun, raising money for @Kepplewray
Brown is connected with a host of neo nazi outfits/individuals. Let's hope this charity's Trustees tell her where to stick her money.

You may have quit GI Tom, on paper, but you are still alt right/far right and your views are very much still in place.
-
There isn’t any evidence I’m a white supremacist or similar because I’m not
-
Your previous affiliation with GI suggests otherwise but I am open to debating.
-
Far-right I think doesn't mean anything now, alt right would possibly apply in the broadest definition but not in the more narrow sense of euphemism for white nationalist / supremacist, and nothing I've written or said either when I was in GI or since has been WN/WS
-
In all fairness I think Tom is right. I am reading a new book by activists and intellectuals from the Alt-Right and race is absolutely foundational to their world view, summarised by the '14 words' (see page ix in the introduction).pic.twitter.com/3FgCjLAHfF

That’s the “internal” definition of the alt right, I think the publics is broader, and includes stuff like Peterson or any non mainstream take on similar issues. I actually think that’s a more useful definition as a social phenomenon than a few thousand neo-Nazis
-
I prefer the tighter definition otherwise it dissolves into an amorphous mist.

I think it’s interesting and relevant because it’s amorphous - it’s the first decentralised, Internet-era political event. It absolutely does include the WN element but they are a small part, who inflate their own relevance (for obvious reasons)...
