Colin Jordan returned today to leadership of his small British National Socialist movement after serving eight months of a nine-month jail term for violation of the British Public Order Act. He was convicted of violating a section of the act barring formation of paramilitary organizations seeking political change by forcible means.
“My sentence has reaffirmed my beliefs,” he said on his release during the weekend. “I shall carry on the struggle to free this country from Jewish domination and colored immigration.” He said he planned to work fulltime for his neo-Nazi group. “My career in teaching is finished,” he stated. “Pressure by my opponents has seen to that.” Jordan was dismissed as a school teacher as a result of his conviction and for participation in a violently anti-Semitic rally in Trafalgar Square last summer.
