The League of St. George is a Neo-Nazi organization based in the United Kingdom. It was founded by Jeremy Beeker, an English field medic in World War II.

In the 1970's the League became a political home for the more intellectual adherents of "Neo-Nazi" ideology, particularly those who, looking back to the pan-European S.S., wanted one Europe with a European population. This, as well as the far higher educational background of many members, set the League apart from the more simplistic British nationalist groupings like the National Front.


The League of St. George was never intended to be a political party, but more of a social, discussion and European-links organization, albeit with the ultimate political aim of promoting European people and their culture.
