Britannica Party
Britannica is a far-right[1][2][3] political party in the United Kingdom, led by Charles Baillie, the former organiser of the British National Party's Glasgow branch. It was first registered in August 2011. It stood four candidates at the Glasgow City Council election, 2012,[2] receiving a total of 73 votes.
It also stood at three council by-elections in Glasgow, in Hillhead (17 November 2011, 11 votes), Govan (10 October 2013, 19 votes) and Shettleston (5 December 2013, 31 votes).
It registered with the Electoral Commission as campaigning for a "No" vote in the Scottish independence referendum, 2014.[4][3]
The party was condemned by antifascists following an incident in which a woman was allegedly assaulted by a Britannica Party member in Glasgow city centre.[5]
