Nick Tenconi – disciple of Christ caught up in sex allegations
  • WARNING: Contains sexually explicit material

The feuding in and around UKIP has culminated in incendiary material appearing online that casts doubts about the sexual morality of Nick ‘Christ is King’ Tenconi, the party’s unelected Leader.

Three days ago, @ukipunzipped, a Twitter account sent up by UKIP dissidents in 2019, posted screen grabs of a number of sex-related posts featuring accounts that they allege involve Tenconi.

Pornographic videos

One is the Only Fans site of Australian Elle Knox who describes herself as “Australia’s Unforgettable Sweetheart & Mens Sacred Sexuality Mentor” and who offers various graphically described online sexual services and pornographic videos.

In an exchange reproduced by @ukipunzipped, an account named Tenco™ Training Ltd messaged her saying ‘Dream girl’ and ‘marry me ‘.

Online posts alleged to have come from Nick Tenconi

The Tenco Training post incorporates a picture which appears to be of Nick Tenconi, and Tenco Training is a company over which he is registered as having significant control, and of which he became a director when it was set up in 2014.

Also reproduced is a post supposedly from a contact site for ‘swinger’ couples where ‘Stacey & Nick’ state that they are ‘happy and horny and love exploring sexually!’ and seek to make contact with like-minded couples, in various permutations. The accompanying picture also appear to be one of Tenconi.

Tenconi will be proposing a new direction for UKIP as the party of the ‘New Right’, fighting for the restoration of Christian values

The third appears to be from a ‘Nick Marcel Tenconi’ Twitter / X account. An existing account in this name was set up by Nick Tenconi in 2011. This alleged post contains Andrew Tate-style advice to young men on how they should treat women. It says:

“Lads – once you‘ve pulled her and /or slept with her and she starts ‘playing the game’ recognise that this is NOT the same as playing games.

“Play back, have fun

“If she does the latter, dump the bitch. Her emotional instability is tip of the iceberg.”

Christian values

We can’t be sure whether all (or indeed any) of this material is genuine. We think that it would be pretty easy to fake such images.

But it arrives at a time when it seems guaranteed to figure dramatically in the upcoming UKIP annual conference, where Tenconi will be proposing a new direction for UKIP as the party of the ‘New Right’, fighting for the restoration of Christian values.

The conference is being held jointly with Robin Tilbrook’s English Democrats and some of them – not to mention a few UKIP veterans – may be wondering exactly who they are getting into bed with.

In the campaign against the National Front, Searchlight provided a rich and utterly reliable basis for much ANL propaganda – particularly with reference to the two leading NF figures, John Tyndall and Martin Webster. The appearance of Tyndall in full nazi uniform, drawn from the archives of Searchlight, was a key part of ANL propaganda, coupled with deeply damaging nazi quotes from Webster.

British Jews have been persecuted over the centuries; British blacks since the Windrush generation of the 1950s; British Muslims, especially after the Islamist 9/11 and then 7/7 terrorist attacks in New York 2001 and London 2005. But until the last few years there has not been a simultaneous threat against all three British communities of Jewish, Black and Muslim Britons – meaning the need for Searchlight has never been greater.

To investigate fascists takes real courage and unusual commitment. The government, police, mainstream media occasionally take a look, but in the UK only Searchlight have kept at it, relentlessly and admirably, regardless of threat or obstacle. It’s journalism that matters. A rare thing.

Searchlight’s voice is more important than ever, and I am delighted that it will now be available to a wider audience than ever before in its new incarnation online. Searchlight has been extremely helpful over the years in exposing the far right, corruption, criminality and the murky links between organised crime and powerful interests in the UK and abroad. I wish Searchlight the very best.

The essence of trade unionism is solidarity, fairness and equality – for all workers – from all backgrounds. That’s why our fight against the far-right has always been part of our movement’s DNA. Searchlight is an incredibly important resource for trade unions and members to understand the contemporary tactics of far-right activity. Their work and intelligence gathering over the years have been incredibly insightful for the work we do, and how we fight the scourge of fascism.
