Social Credit Party of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

[1] At this point C. H. Douglas, the originator of Social Credit and the ideological leader of the group, disavowed the Greenshirts as he did not support the establishment of a political party based on his ideas.

[1] The party published the newspaper Attack[1] and was linked to a small number of incidents in which green-painted bricks were thrown through windows, including at 11 Downing Street, the official residence of the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

[4] There were an additional two Independent candidates who stood advocating a National Dividend; Reginald Kenney in Bradford North and H.C. Bell in Birmingham Erdington.

[1] Notable supporters of Social Credit or "monetary reform" in Britain in the 1920s and 1930s included aircraft manufacturer A. V. Roe, scientist Frederick Soddy, author Henry Williamson,[citation needed] military historian J. F. C. Fuller[7] and Sir Oswald Mosley, in 1928-30 a member of the Labour Government but later the leader of the British Union of Fascists.
