Shared European views
Via the letters page of Private Eye Nº 1488, your humble Devil notes that neo-fascist Sir Oswald Mosley—father of ex-fascist, bobby-puncher, party animal and would-be respected scourge of the press, Max Mosley—decided to start a magazine to raise awareness of his Europe A Nation philosophy…
The European was a privately circulated far-right cultural and political magazine that was published between 1953 and 1959. During this tenure, it was edited by fascist supporter and politician Diana Mosley. The magazine was published by ‘Euphorion Books’, a publishing company formed by Mosley and her husband, Sir Oswald Mosley, founder of the British Union of Fascists.
Since the Brexit referendum, a new publication has sprung forth, boldly claiming that “we are the 48%”, and its roster of contributors includes such trusted luminaries as Tony “Chuckles” Blair, Alastair “Tucker” Campbell, and convicted fraud and thief Denis “Fake Invoices” Macshane.
The name of this illustrious organ? Why…
… The New European, of course!
Your humble Devil should make it clear that he does not believe that the staff of The New European are fascists, neo-fascists or even neo-neo-fascists; neither is he accusing them of sharing the Mosleys’ fascist views.
No, the only similarity between 1953′s The European and The New European is a certain similarity of name and, it would seem, a shared belief in the desirability of about a united European government…
… and a bigger base of support, apparently: after all, Mosley never claimed that 48% of the country agreed with his views…
