Heritage and Destiny (H&D), a bi-monthly magazine, is the most important print publication produced by the traditional British fascist scene.
Founded in 1999 and edited by former British National Party (BNP) organisers Mark Cotterill and Peter Rushton, the publication retains a readership among the old guard of the British far right. It has, however, made efforts to expand its readership in recent years, including establishing a presence on social media.
In July 2025, Cotterill claimed the readership had increased significantly over the previous year to almost 900 subscribers, including 100 in North America.
The paper features contributions from across the fascist fringe, including the leaders of Patriotic Alternative (PA), the Homeland Party and National Rebirth Party, as well as the British Democrats, the British Movement and more.
H&D also hosts conferences in Preston, Lancashire, in remembrance of John Tyndall. The events received wider attention after Isabel Peralta, a notorious Spanish fascist and H&D’s “European correspondent”, entered the country to address the 2022 and 2023 conferences, although she has since been barred by the home secretary.
The most recent event, in September 2025, was attended by roughly 70 people and featured speeches by figures from PA, the British Democrats, the British Movement and the National Housing Party UK. Ken Schmidt, H&D’s US correspondent, was barred from entering the country.
