Emerging in  April last year, Youth Alliance (YA), since renamed National Socialist Youth, is/was a tiny but deeply antisemitic and anti-Muslim youth group. Aiming to recruit men aged 17-30, YA emphasised Christianity as a core part of its identity, positioning itself as fighting a quasi-holy war against both Judaism and Islam.

YA prioritised offline activism and initially appeared to align itself with the UK’s existing anti-Muslim street movement, with activists attending Tommy Robinson’s London rallies in June and July and briefly attaching themselves to an anti-migrant campaign in Aldershot. As far-right disorder swept the country, YA contingents were also present at the Whitehall protest, the Sunderland and Bristol riots, and the Portsmouth protest last summer.

However, since the riots the group has become both less active and significantly more radical, promoting extreme antisemitism and Nazi propaganda and attacking Tommy Robinson over his civic nationalism. Small numbers of activists have also engaged in limited operations in residential areas, distributing stickers featuring the image of Oswald Mosley and slogans like “BRITONS STAND UP”. YA also held a few sparsely-attended physical training sessions.

Having gained the attention of law enforcement, YA has effectively fizzled out, with activists defecting to other vehicles. What remains of the group established close links to the longstanding neo-Nazi British Movement, and in January 2025 renamed itself National Socialist Youth. At present, the group seems to do little other than pumping out a stream of Nazi content on Telegram.
