  Searchlight (magazine) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Searchlight's main focus is on the British National Party (BNP), Combat 18, and other sections of the far right, although it has also published criticism of the United Kingdom Independence Party and sections of the Conservative Party.
The magazine is edited by political activist Gerry Gable, and was founded by the late Maurice Ludmer, a lifelong anti-racist and anti-fascist.
At the insistence of the British National Party, Searchlight and the associated Searchlight Educational Trust were investigated by the British Charity Commission as a result of a complaint that claimed that the Educational Trust had been engaging in political activity incompatible with its charitable status.

 Searchlight Editor Backs IWCA Approach
As an alternative to acting like grown-ups, Searchlight saw the attempt to adapt, as an opportunity to settle some old scores, by deliberately encouraging elements within AFA to question the authority of the security stewards up and down the country who recognized the need for and supported the project.
As well as Searchlight moles brazenly challenging the proposals for the development of 'a political wing' within and without, Searchlight entryists eagerly cultivated any malcontents, the restless or the adventurers who hungered for the previously confrontational approach, which as a result of the BNP withdrawl from the streets was now self-evidently redundant.
Ironically, in stretching their remit away from the type of state friendly cross-class alliances enthusiastically promoted by them for two decades, the community-orientated strategy they now recommend as an alternative, is in itself an admission that a class free approach to anti-fascism, if not already downright counterproductive is certainly defunct.

 Part One: The 1970's | libcom.org
However in their chosen field Searchlight are very influential, in fact virtually monopolistic: barely a story on fascists printed in the UK newspapers has not got their paw-print on it, and the same (even more so) goes for TV documentaries on fascism.
Yet if Searchlight was a genuinely independent magazine, as opposed to a satellite publication, surely they would have told their readers the source of their story was a state asset.
At this time, Searchlight was extimating C88 membership as 'in the region of 200 - 300' and again describing 'the long-term aim of C88 to provide a highly trained and efficient cadre for a national socialist party of the future.' [7] Searchlight concluded by pompously stating C88 is a private army.

 New Statesman - Parity at last
The magazine carried a story which, the brothers said, accused them of threatening to kneecap, torture and kill fellow party members and their families.
The story appeared in a column by Searchlight's publisher, Gerry Gable, who also reported allegations, first made in the BNP paper British Nationalist, that the brothers might be subject to police investigation and that Chris Roberts had taken money from a collection and would not return it until threatened with the police.
Searchlight entered a qualified privilege defence, saying it had a duty in the public interest to report allegations and cross-allegations being made by BNP factions.

 Searchlight & Disinformation
To all intents and purposes Searchlight the organisation
Searchlight has long claimed that it was the fascist 'extreme-right' that first published the names and addresses of anti-fascists to be targetted for attack, and supported this theory by exposing the actions of the Young National Front publication Bulldog, and South London News, both of which featured the details of hundreds of anti-fascists.
The hydra that is the Searchlight organisation (the magazine being merely the public face of such) cannot be reformed or reasoned with, it must be destroyed and replaced, as soon as possible...

 Searchlight and the State | libcom.org
Born in January 1937, Gerry Gable is a former member of the Young Communist League (YCL), and stood as Communist Party candidate in the Northfield ward of Stamford Hill, north London, in 1962.
In Searchlight's case, opposition to the 'extremists' of the Right has opened up the door to the extremists of the centre, for whom Right and Left are equally perceived as a threat to 'democracy'.
Searchlight subsequently printed a long expose of Marriner's activities, but only after the local press had already picked up the beginnings of the story and blown Marriner's cover as election agent to Labour MP Brian Waldon and his successor, John Severs.

According to Searchlight, when the hit team's visit was reported to the local police they immediately installed panic button alarms in every room of the house, fitted new security locks and arranged for the property to be guarded by a patrol passing several times each hour.
Even if that were so, it doesn't let Searchlight or their sponsors off the hook, for by seeking to coonvince the media, the Left, and the Right of the reality of C88 when they did, attention was being diverted from fundamental developments on the interstices of the state and the far right.
Searchlight has examined some of the lists and found them ludicrously inaccurate, to the extent they can only be deliberately false' [34] Sadly for them, Hepple had admitted in writing his own involvement in the lists production and Searchlight's knowledge of this.

 Open Letter to Unite Against Fascism and Searchlight   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
We focussed on this question at the conference because it was on this that we most sharply disagreed with the tendency of the UAF to operate like a top-down national campaign with national material.
Searchlight is certainly correct about this but the main strength of the UAF conference was precisely in how it gave a voice to these communities.
So we appeal to Unite Against Fascism and Searchlight to urgently come together to discuss the united work, for organisations affiliated to both these organisations to fight for a united anti-fascist movement and for a conference which allows activists and organisations on the front-line determine the direction of our movement.

Christopher and Barry Roberts, brothers who both stood as parliamentary candidates for the BNP in the last General Election, had sued Searchlight magazine over the October 2003 article which focused on a London BNP rally it dubbed ‘the Night of the Short Knives'.
The brothers claimed that, as well as the allegations of violent threats, the article by Gerry Gable bore the meaning that Christopher had stolen money from a collection organised at the rally, and that he would not return it until he was threatened with the police.
However, top judge Mr Justice Eady today backed the magazine, which had pleaded a qualified privilege defence on the basis that they were merely reporting the allegations as part of their duty to report the cross-allegations in a divide of the BNP, which was in the public interest.

 Socialism Today - The politics of anti-fascism
The anti-fascist magazine Searchlight has had to concede that "the old tactic of producing a leaflet which labels the BNP as Nazi and giving it out from a stall in the high street is simply not effective enough".
After the Liberal Democrats won a by-election in Hapton-with-Park in Burnley that the BNP were widely expected to win, Searchlight acclaimed the result as proving that "the BNP can be beaten and that the Lib Dems are capable of providing a respectable alternative to voters disillusioned with Labour".
Sadly, however, Steve Silver, Nick Lowles and the initiators of UAF do not go on to draw the necessary conclusions from this argument: that to defeat the BNP the workers’ movement must be prepared to challenge them and the parties of the establishment on the electoral field as well as in community campaigning work.
