Any reason why these sorts aren't put on terror watchlists, or are they only reserved for foreigners?

Searchlights pretty much your gold standard if your looking for an SPLC type thing for the UK. Nevermind the territorial pissings between the various squabbly UK anti-fascist groups, Searchlight pretty much wrote the book on research anti-fascism and the SPLC in the US, EXPO in sweden, FDB in Australia and so on just follow that rulebook

They cop a bit of stick from the more radical groups for the fact they share information with police and tend to work with government a lot doing training courses and consulting with intelligence gathering, but Matthew Collins who seems to run the show these days is a solid guy with a solid perspective that ultimately lays the blame on Labor and the left for not providing a real alternative for disafected working class men looking for answers, something I agree with 100%

The research these guys do is fantastic. If your interested in UK antifascism you owe it to yourself to get a subscription to their mag, even if you think they are lame-o's who need to get back into the doc martens.

e: They do operate internationally via friendly groups and a bit of their own representation, but they have traditionally been a UK org. My guess though is they will be paying a LOT more focus on europe after the greek disaster.
