HOOLIGANS by Rick Broadbent, published in the Times, January 9, 2006, page 20.
Gable’s hate-sheet gets a mention here re the English disease, Darren Wells and Combat 18.
February 2006: This is the front cover of the magazine. Notice the price label, from Borders. This was about the only shop anywhere that would dare to stock this gutter rag after Yours Truly, Mark Taha and the late Morris Riley had finished with it.
Talking of borders, much of this 36 page issue is devoted to this racist concept. Look at the people in this photograph, they are all men, clearly not doctors and engineers. They are said to be paying the price for a better life, but who is really paying? There is a four page article about this problem.
Here is the Editorial from page 3 that whines about the forthcoming local elections and alludes to Maurice Ludmer as a giant. The truth is that in his own way, Ludmer was as big a liar as Gerry Gable, the imaginary Notting Hill Carnival bomb plot and the Column 88 Nazi Underground hoax (that he cooked up with Dave Roberts) are proof positive of that. Check out the relevant entries in this Bibliography.
On page 13, an article by Gable and his understudy (later betrayer) Nick Lowles calls to shut down what they call peddlers of hate, read censor our political enemies. Over the page is a report on David irving who was soon to face trial for thought crime in the same Fortress Europe so many Africans seem to think is some sort of paradise.
On pages 30-31 is a round up of 2005 from the States by Gable’s hatemongering co-racialist Leonard Zeskind.
Page 32 is an obituary for Klaus Harbart by Graeme Atkinson; Harbart was another German who made a comfortable living off the war guilt of his countrymen.
March 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 369 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
Much of this issue is devoted to the Danish cartoons affair. On page 14 is a chronology, while on page 15, Swedish correspondent Mikael Ekman writes Nazism and Islamism unite against democracy; in view of the way the so-called far right reacted after the atrocities of October 7, 2023 and the way the far left in effect supported these outrages, this claim seems rather fanciful in retrospect.
In an article on pages 24-5, Gable uses his favourite word, links, writing about what he calls hate music.
In his second article, on pages 26-7, for once he is right on the money when he alludes to Patrick Harrington as the pest; I say this because I was also taken in by Harrington. The article includes a chronology.
Back numbers of the magazine are advertised on page 35.
April 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 370 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
At the bottom of page 3 is this correction:
Hmm, why do I suspect that someone threatened the magazine with a libel writ?!
On pages 4-5, Lowles reports on the Hope Not Hate campaign to stop the BNP in the forthcoming local elections.
On page 8, we find these comic claims about immigration and especially the NHS, we all benefit. The article about the BNP Africans for Essex leaflets may sound comical but look back at the front cover of the February 2006 issue and especially to 2024 (when this entry was made) and it doesn’t sound quite so absurd.
Page 10 is an interview with the boxing trainer and manager Brendan Ingle who died in 2018, a typical cheap shot from the Gable gang.
On page 12, Lowles (or lowles as spelt here) reports on the BNP losing what it said to be its safest seat, Keighley West in Yorkshire. For the benefit of non-Tykes, this town is pronounced KEITH-lee, as one word with stress on the first syllable.
Pages 13-6 is a report by David Williams on a meeting of American Renaissance from February 24-6, apparently from inside. Nick Griffin attended, hence the title of the article: BNP leader embraced by top US nazis – and these Nazis were?
The founder of American Renaissance is the charismatic Jared Taylor, who was actually born in Japan. On one occasion, he was interviewed by a Japanese television crew, who were surprised when he addressed them in their language.
David Duke is often alluded to as a former Ku Klux Klan leader, but he is much more than that, and although (unlike Taylor) he tends to see the Jewish hand behind everything, he is not and has never been any kind of Nazi.
Later, Williams contributes another lengthy article, on the Conservative Party.
Pages 18-9 is an article about Auschwitz ad nauseam by fake Nazi mole Matthew Collins.
There are the usual overseas reports, including one from Austria by Rita Ruesch on yet another trial of David Irving.
June 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 372 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
This issue is devoted largely to the 2006 local elections, pages 20-25 includes results from around the country, overwhelmingly the BNP but with the odd NF candidate here and there.
On other pages there is what passes for analysis, inclucing an article contributed by Lowles and Jon Cruddas. Cruddas was a Labour MP for over twenty years, ending his tenure in May 2024. His name has appeared in connection with the Gable gang here and there over the years but he is a useful idiot rather than a fellow traveller.
There are several pages of international reports.
July 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 373 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
Pages 4-5 is a report by Mrs Gable on court cases against BNP members. On page 6 she reports on Sharon Ebanks, who is said to be the sole black member of the BNP, very appropriate as before she married Gerry, Sonia Hochfelder was the sole Jewish member of the League of Saint George.
Page 6 is a report by her husband called BNP defends Holocaust denier; with the usual caveats, there is no such animal, no such human being as a Holocaust denier.
Mrs Gable contributes no fewer than another three articles to the magazine, the usual guff. There are many overseas reports beginning with three from Sweden by Håkan Gestrin and Mikael Ekman, Ekman with Maria Blomquist, and Anna Amnéus with Kajsa Lindohf.
A fourth article from Sweden is an obituary for Sebastian Lindén who is said to have drowned while boating; this was written by Atkinson who was presumably reporting from Germany as usual. He credits a third party for providing him with some information.
There is yet another report from Sweden, by Ekman and Daniel Olsson, and sundry other reports including one from the USA by Zeskind.
August 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 374 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
The front story is about England at the Soccer World Cup; this is related on pages 4-6 by Mark Perryman. Lowles follows up with his own article on pages 8-9. On the next page, Lowles writes about the Redwatch website and attempts to shut it down. This had actually been debated in Parliament on June 21.
Page 7 is an article called A Day at Dachau, and would you believe, the uncredited author cannot resist lying about it? There is an allusion to the gas chamber, albeit a generic one, but there were no gassings in Dachau according to court historians as well as revisionists. And no, the charismatic President of Iran did not claim Dachau and places like it never existed, he simply questioned the extent of the Holocaust claims as well as (later in the year) exposing the hypocrisy of the Western media by hosting the Global Vision Conference in Tehran (which Yours Truly attended).
Pages 16-7 is an article by Collins called No justice in Mubarek case. This is worth discussing at some length because it is a case of the extreme left scoring a classic own goal, albeit at the expense of a young life.
When racists were convicted, often of thought crimes, there appears to have been an unofficial policy of putting them in the same cells as non-white inmates. When Michael McLaughlin was so convicted, he complained afterwards that he has been forced to share a cell with a deranged Rastafarian.
The extreme left seemed to think this sort of thing was hilarious until the murder of Zahid Mubarek. Robert Stewart was a teenage skinhead who had a tattoo on his forehead; he was made to share a cell with petty shoplifter Mubarek at Feltham, an institution specifically for young offenders. Mubarek was literally hours away from being released when Stewart beat him to death with a table leg. Stewart is clearly a psychopath. The murder happened in March 2000, but official inquiries are painfully slow affairs. In his article, Collins makes a lot of noise about how separating Mubarek from his murderer were missed, but he is clearly playing dumb and must have known the score.
This issue also contains two obituaries. The first is for a leftist from Leicester named Paul Winstone. The second is for Eric D. Butler, an interesting character from Australia who was branded an anti-Semite, but his views on the Jewish Question were more mystical than anti-Semitic. He was also a Social Crediter. Right on!
September 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 375 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
The front page calls for halting the rise of guess what political party? The theme is continued on pages 10-11 by Lowles who says it is time to reassert our ideals. In case you didn’t know, Lowles was a fully paid up member of the BNP.
At the bottom of the Editorial on page 3 is an announcement for Extra, a colour supplement to be published four times a year for UK subscribers only.
Pages 4-7 is a big article by Lowles calling on the authorities to shut down Redwatch.
There are sundry articles including one about cricket, and the usual overseas reports.
Pages 24-5 is said to be a new column; Council Watch; although uncredited, it was apparently written by Sonia Gable.
The back page offer a 20% discount on subscriptions plus a free book – From Cable Street To Oldham: 70 Years Of Resistance
The Battle of Cable Street is a perennial favourite of the Gable gang, as is the Spanish Civil War.
October 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 376 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
Gerry and Sonia contribute to this issue, but the heaviest contribution is from Matthew Collins in Northern Ireland. The front cover story is in fact about racism there. Racism indeed. There are six pages including interviews followed by another article, about paramilitary groups, and a third, about a murder.
The overseas reports include one by Karl Pfeifer who argues against the claim by David Irving that the 1956 Hungarian Uprising was about anti-Semitism. Irving had access to CIA files when he published his book on the subject, in 1981. His actual claim was that the October 1956 uprising started as a pogrom, and he has given cogent reasons for this, namely that after the Second World War, the Soviets repatriated Hungarian Jews and many of these were given plum jobs by the occupying power.
November 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 377 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
This issue is all about racism. Surprise, surprise.
Page 23 is an obituary by Gable for Reginald Freeson (who died October 9).
On the previous page, Sweet Sonia reports on the activities of the BNP at local councils around the country.
There are the usual pages of overseas reports including from Zeskind in the United States.
December 2006: INTERNATIONAL Searchlight, issue 378 is priced at £2.50 and runs to 36 pages.
Pages 4-5 is a report by Lowles on the recent trial and acquittal of Nick Griffin and Mark Collett.
Pages 6-8 reports on the fall from grace of Sharon Ebanks by Dave Williams, presumably regular contributor David Wiliams.
Pages 9-10 is a report on the BNP’s accounts by Sonia Gable. As Sweet Sonia is an accountant this should be free from the usual errors.
On pages 14-5 is a report by David Williams, not Dave, on a conference held in October.
On page 16, Lowles reports on a meeting of the Labour Friends of Searchlight.
There are the usual overseas reports.
