The BPP described its economic policies as establishing a "White Workers' State" as an alternative to Marxism and capitalism and favoured nationalising the media and banks, supporting small businesses, while dismantling multinational ones, and recriminalising homosexuality.

[3] The BPP was led by Kevin Watmough and was largely dedicated to the legacies of British Nazis who pre-date the party, such as Arnold Leese, John Beckett and Colin Jordan.

[8] Goole party member Martyn Gilleard was convicted in June 2008 of possessing child pornography, illegal weapons and explosive devices.

[citation needed] The party supported Simon Sheppard during his arrest, trial and imprisonment on incitement to racial hatred charges for material on his Heretical Press site.

It undertook leafleting campaigns in support of a return of the shoot-to-kill policy[12] and against the presence of Roma people in the Village area of south Belfast.

[13] A further campaign against Polish immigration was condemned by the Democratic Unionist Party MP Gregory Campbell, who called for a crackdown on the BPP in Northern Ireland.

[14] Although the BPP website avowedly stated that it supported Northern Ireland's continuing status within the UK,[2] it also offered coverage to Ulster Nation, a pro-independence journal.
