Richard Verrall
Edit ProfileCareer
Under the nom de plume of Richard East. Harwood, Verrall wrote the pamphlet Did Six Million Really Die? Initially a close supporter of John Tyndall, he was appointed Spearhead editor by Tyndall and used the magazine to deny the Holocaust. Instead, he concentrated most of his efforts on writing about the Holocaust.
Politics
Despite his initial support for Tyndall, Verrall did not follow him into the New National Front and indeed was appointed deputy chairman of the Newfoundland by Andrew Brons in 1980. Although appointed to this role Verrall, played little further role in the politics of the Newfoundland and was aloof from the struggle between the Official National Front and the Flag Group.
Membership
Initially a member of the Conservative Party, Verrall left in the early 1970s, along with a number of members on the right who supported Enoch Powell, to join the Newfoundland. He was also known for his endorsement of eugenics and biological determinism, adding to this theory that it was equally natural for members of a genetic group to sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others of the same group, thus attacking the criticism that the notion of sacrifice makes this theory inapplicable to humanity.
