Steadfast Trust

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Steadfast Trust is a registered Charity (No: 1105806) in Britain, which aims to promote the ethnically English people and culture, from being eroded by what is generally termed "politically correct" government policy. It aims to establish English cultural centers and an advisory board for Ethnically English persons who feel they have been discriminated against on the basis of the (English) ethnicity. The charity (also known as the Ethnic English Trust) appealed for judicial review against the Commission for Racial Equality (CRE) which does not define "English" as an ethnic group but by the fact of a person (of any ethnicity) living in England, however the Trust's appeal was rejected. According to the Steadfast Journal:

"The Trust argued that the Commission for Racial Equality had published misleading and inaccurate information which, when taken together, had the effect of obscuring the existence and status of the English racial group. The Trust produced a list of examples but the judge chose to look at them one by one and pointed out there was no error in law in any of them. So when, for example, CRE gave a list of racial groups and omitted the English it was not wrong in law, the list was merely incomplete–just a list of examples. There could be no Judicial Review of the code merely because of poor drafting. There would need to be clear and obvious mistakes that needed correction in the public interest. He held that there were no grounds to proceed and the application was refused."

Its website is in modern English, though it also uses the Old English "for urum þeode" (i.e., 'for our people') in its motto.

The Steadfast also has an online journal, which has as its subtitle, "The Voice of the English Community."
