Former grenadier Tim Arnold has returned to Britain from Thailand to set up two interlinked fascist organisations for ex-military personnel, the VFF (Veterans For Freedom) and the NLD (National League Democracy) offshoots for Liberty GB, for which Mr Arnold manages the Liberty Ex-Forces Group with assistance from ex-BNP culturalist Jack Buckby, the pair of them claiming to raise charity money from what they call Ultra Marathons.

The extreme racist VFF / NLD are planning a nationwide publicity event called the Big Sleep Out on the 2nd of May to highlight homelessness among former soldiers, using publicity gained to help their fledgling far right organisation grow into a serious political force. Arnold claims the Big Sleep Out will become bigger than the Ice Bucket Challenge. Piggybacking upon their exploited cause, the VFF is virulently Islamophobic and wants the teaching of Islam banned from schools, and Muslims removed from the United Kingdom.

If the Big Sleep Out becomes news, the VFF / NLD will grow, and so too will intolerance against Muslims. Unlike the BNP's Soldiers Off The Streets, the VFF or the NLD are not registered charities. They are cynical far right exploiters of human suffering for their own personal political goals.

Fuhrer-to-be Arnold is currently seeking publicity assistance from the Royal British Legion and homeless charities such as Shelter, who must be on their guard, or else they could end up endorsing this embryonic fascist group and unwittingly assisting it in its nefarious aims, encouraging racial hatred amongst ex-military personnel and their families.

JUST TO ADD.... Kate Hurst, the Pegida UK admin organising Pegida's visit to Newcastle, was a supporter of the EDL's Armed Forces Division. Now she is supporting the VFF / NLD, despite repeated denials of Pegida's overt fascist links.
