The Right Wing and the South East There has been very little Right Wing activity in the South East region over the last 6 months. There have been no large demonstrations and while many groups maintain a strong presence and following on social media, this has not manifested itself on the streets at demonstrations. A number of individuals from the South East travel out of the region to attend demonstrations in other parts of the UK. There are a number of South East specific groups, including EDL branches, the South East Alliance and the Pie and Mash Squad. However, many of these groups lack distinct leadership and organisation which makes organising large scale marches difficult. NS131 (AKA National Action) were involved in a banner drop over the M4 in the South East area in August 2017. There have been no further indications that the group have support in this area.

National Action – Proscription National Action were proscribed by the UK government in December 2016. This means that showing support for the group or belonging to the group is equivalent to showing support for Daesh. NS131 and Scottish Dawn have also been proscribed as alternative names for National Action.

The Right and Stickers A number of Extreme and Far Right Wing stickers have been put on street furniture across the South East Region. In the majority of cases these are freely available online for people to order if they support the causes. Most of these stickers have been racist or anti-immigration in nature.
