The British Fascists (originally called the British Fascisti) was the first political organisation in the United Kingdom to claim the label of fascism, formed in 1923. The group had little ideological unity apart from anti-socialism for much of its existence, and was strongly associated with British conservatism. William Joyce, Neil Francis Hawkins, Maxwell Knight and Arnold Leese were amongst those to have passed through the movement as members and activists.
