Greater Britain was a term which arose in the second half of the 19th century in British discourses about the British Empire. The term was used in different ways by different people, and sometimes in different ways by the same person. Many were associated with the Imperial Federation League, a political grouping which encompassed political activists from a broad range of backgrounds in supporting a more positive approach to the British Empire in the policies of the British government.

  • Greater Britain was a term which arose in the second half of the 19th century in British discourses about the British Empire. The term was used in different ways by different people, and sometimes in different ways by the same person. Many were associated with the Imperial Federation League, a political grouping which encompassed political activists from a broad range of backgrounds in supporting a more positive approach to the British Empire in the policies of the British government. In the twentieth century Oswald Mosley revived the term with his book The Greater Britain. This was published by the British Union of Fascists in 1932 to launch their party. "Our task is not to invent Fascism, but to find for it in Britain its highest expression and development" Moseley wrote.In 1964 John Tyndall founded the Greater Britain Movement (GBM), deriving the name from Moseley's earlier book. Although Tyndall initially aimed to link up with other Neo-Nazis internationally, such open espousal of National Socialist was disavowed in 1966, and the GBM was dissolved with Tyndall calling on its members to join the recently formed National Front (UK).
