Not really far from German's Nationalsocialism but without the racial laws.

I'm tired and busy right now, but
HAAAILL MOSLEEY!

>You will NEVER live in the timeline where the UK and Germany were on the same side in World War II

ADOLF BRITLER

It's very far from NS.
NS was extremely German-centric, Mosley was an advocate for united Europe. One of the first, in fact.

A united, fascist Europe would be the bees knees

Yet NS many people worship here didn't fight for that. They fought for German hegemony over Europe, and literally planned to enslave and exterminate roughly a third of Europeans.
Both Mosley and Mussolini were fucked over by their association with Hitler. Of course, Mussolini was more aware of who Hitler was, but in 1940 he miscalculated and joined the war.

...

Mosley had a better vision for how Britain should be governed.
Massive devolution of responsibility and power.

MPs would effectively become local leaders directly involved in their constituencies in a civil leadership role. Directing the local councils and civil bodies. The man on the ground in a political sense.
While local councils would shoulder more responsibility in general and instead of tax money all being sent to London then doled back out it would be collected at the level its used at.
So local councils would collect and spend taxes themselves.

Parliament would meet less often and its main function would be to renew or end the government's authority to act. When parliament did meet its MPs now having a better idea of their constituencies needs than the MP of today (or the 1940s) would be better equipped to inform the government of what is needed in the nation and their constituencies.

The house of lords in its current form would be abolished to be replaced by a similar body comprised of representatives of the fascist made corporations, not the private for profit companies of today but something more like a trade union with civil authority. Thus providing a large pool of experts in various fields who can contribute expert opinions on everything from being a butcher to a surgeon.

With the monarch on top of all this to act as an arbiter to ensure nobody does anything they shouldn't.

>You will NEVER live in the timeline where the UK/Germany/USA were on the same side in World War II

It'd be utter shit. One of the foundations of fascism is one unifying culture and language. That's why Franco banned the Catalan language and why a fascist European state won't work in the foreseeable future.

>UK
>USA
>liberal democracies fighting on the same side as totalitarian regime bent on continental hegemony
First, there was ZERO chance British back Hitler, his actions went against their centuries old policy of not allowing hegemony on the continent. Hegemony could easily marshal superior resources and threaten the British.
Second, there was SUBZERO chance of USA ever backing Nazi Germany. USA was a fucking liberal democracy.
People actually tolerated Hitler up until 1938, due to communist threat.
But occupation of Czechoslovakia, and his further demands, just made him impossible to tolerate anymore.

>what is English for 500 alex...because its the most popular second language would be the pick of fascist European state

A pan-European worldview was just a strategy of foreign relationships, Mosley was not an irredentist - unlike Hitler who saw the lost territories of Prussia as still a legitimate part of his nation.
Hitler was not seeking a German hegomony over Europe. That is false. He didn't give a fuck about other nations, actually. When asked about NS in other European countries he said he wouldn't be bothered by it but NatSoc was not "exportable."

>YOU WERE THE GREATEST POWER ON EARTH

>....AND STILL CAN BE
>WHY DO I SAY YOU STILL CAN BE ?
>BECAUSE MY FRIENDS, I KNOW YOU....

>...I KNOW THE BRITISH PEOPLE.

It was some sort of democratic fascism
He explains it good
Also Mosley was very anti-war since he was a WWI veteran and didn't want any young men to go through what he went through

The territories Germany lost were legitimate concern. Prussia is the historic center of Germany, it is the state from which Germany was unified.

he was BEADY as fuck

Agreed.

The most important thing that Mosley advocated was the replacement of parliamentary democracy with guilds, or corporations. Each man, and some women, of working age would be a member of an occupational guild, every 2-3 years you would vote for a representative from your guild to send to a national congress. That congress would elect, or more often reelect, a government. That government would be "free to govern", as Mosley put it, without having to every little piece of legislation voted on and passed by a parliamentary majority (then passed upwards to the house of Lords). When the national congress, or council, met 3-4 times a year, it would either endorse the government or pass a vote of no confidence, then replace the government. A smaller "grand council" of approximately 40-50 members would have been appointed to meet on a more regular basis and scrutinise the work of the government. All political parties would have been banned. As in National-Socialism, everyone would have been encouraged to put national interests before petty self-interest, and the government obliged to foster a sense of racial community amongst the citizenry of the nation. Mosley wanted to create a meritocracy and could have done so had he chosen a different political vehicle for his plans. Mosley, a former member of the Labour party let's not forget, had little chance of success with his "New Party", which later evolved into the B.U.F. He would, imo, have enjoyed more success had he joined the nascent National Party, or the National Democratic and Labour Party, which was affiliated with the British Workers League. Both the National Party and the NDLP already had elected MP's and there was talk of a merger between the two which would have meant a party of 10-15 MP's in the early 1920's.

>let's ban on all other European languages
If you don't enforce one culture it's not fascism. A confederation of fascist states would ofc be possible.

Hitler's speeches are great

But hearing Mosley's speeches are sublime because I don't need to read subtitles

This is a fairly good explanation of what he was all about.

He was a complete fookin legend and his ideas were so on point that they could still be implemented today even with the massive societal and technological changes we've seen, and they would probably be more successful than the downright silly system we've got going on right now
