Steve Laws – to speak in European Parliament

Steve Laws is one of Britain’s most dangerous and prolific neo-nazi agitators. And next month he will be speaking in the European Parliament, in a propaganda coup of the first order.

Laws has posted that he will be on the platform at a European Parliament event on Wednesday 3 June, titled “Confronting Uncontrolled Immigration: Experiences from Spain, Italy and the UK.”

The event, hosted by ECR Group MEPs Diego Solier and Nora Junco, is billed as an examination of the “causes, failures and the way forward” on immigration.

Laws appears on the promotional material alongside Alice Carrazza, described as a political analyst and journalist at Il Secolo d’Italia – the post-fascist Italian newspaper closely associated with Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy.

Migrant hunter

Laws shot to prominence in 2020 as one of the leading figures in the “migrant hunter” scene, filming asylum seekers and temporary accommodation sites to generate outrage and revenue on social media.

In 2024 he latched onto the concept of “remigration”, a euphemism for ethnic cleansing, and became its loudest British advocate, publishing a multi-stage plan to remove immigrants that combines state force with harassment and intimidation.

Last September he launched Remigration Now, a pressure group campaigning for the forced removal of all “non-whites,” with goals including the deportation of the entirety of the UK’s Black, Asian and Jewish communities.

When asked his opinion of the Nazi regime, Laws said: “If I was in Germany in the 1930s, I would have been straight behind them.”

On the Holocaust, he added: “I very much doubt the figures on that.”

Laws was for a year or two inside the leadership cadre of the Homeland Party, led by ex-BNP official Kenny Smith as a breakaway from Britain’s largest nazi movement Patriotic Alternative.

Rupert Lowe cheer leader

Since leaving Homeland in a row linked both to Laws’ strangely obsessive homophobia and his inability to be a team player, he has associated with Mark Collett’s neo-nazi Patriotic Alternative, speaking several times on its platform.

He has also appeared at several European far-right marches and conferences.

Laws is also a member of Rupert Lowe’s Restore Britain and one of its most prominent neo-nazi cheer leaders..

Laws’ Remigration Now campaign recently organised a rally in Nuneaton with Mark Collett’s neo-nazi Patriotic Alternative that turned into a nazi get-together, with members of British Movement, White Vanguard and the National Resistance Movement among those present.

The event hosting him at the European Parliament on 3 June is organised under the banner of the ECR Group, a broad church for the European hard right.

The largest party in the group is Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy(FdI) followed by the Polish Law and Justice party. The ECR also includes the Sweden Democrats and Finland’s Finns Party.

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.

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.

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.

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.
