Tom Holmes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Frank Holmes (born c1931) is the current chairman of the far-right British political party, the National Front and a long standing member of the movement.
Holmes is a strong supporter of European nationalism and has stated: "I have contacts with people all over Europe: Austria, Italy, France, Germany, Spain, Greece, Serbia, but none of these are official contacts, we have unofficial contacts, yes, we support any European nationalist party" [1]. He has also been highly critical of the BNP, claiming that they are no longer truly White nationalists and condemning them for having a Sikh columnist in the party newspaper.
