| Description | New Britain is a far right political party in the United Kingdom, founded in 1976. It has been led since its inception by Dennis Delderfield, a former Common Councilman of the City of London and editor of the 'City of London and Dockland Times'. Delderfield currently holds the position of National Chairman, alongside President George Brooker MBE (Conservative Mayor of Slough in 1977) and Vice-President John Haynes.
New Britain is anti-immigration and has been described as an "avowedly racist party" by The Observer (May 2001), with longstanding links to 'Rhodesian' organisations promoting racial separatism, such as the Springbok Club/Empire Loyalist Club. It also campaigned for the return of capital punishment, and was supported by the Christian Affirmation Campaign, a fundamentalist movement opposed to what it saw as the World Council of Churches' support for Communist regimes in Africa. In 1980, New Britain absorbed the anti-immigration United Country Party, which had been chaired by TV astronomer Patrick Moore. Around this time it also absorbed a small anti-devolution group called the Keep Britain United Party. This party had contested a single seat in the 1979 general election.
