Oswald Mosley

Oswald Mosley was a British politician best known for founding the British Union of Fascists in the 1930s. Originally involved in mainstream politics, he shifted to far-right extremism, promoting nationalist and authoritarian ideas inspired by European fascist movements. His movement sought to unite Britain under a strong, centralized government, often using propaganda and intimidation. Due to its radical views and associations with fascism, Mosley and his group faced widespread opposition and were banned during World War II. His legacy is controversial, symbolizing the rise of fascist ideologies in Britain and the challenges of political extremism.
