Reading about the history of far right and far left movements in the UK and America I saw that there is a lack of literature explaining their reasons for not coming to power.
I did find a few theories and discussions but I feel the issue is very much one of interpretation and is very vague.
No one really knows why they failed to win power.
Part of me wonders, is it possible that parties such as the CPGB and BUF in Britain just simply didn't take it very seriously?
Did they really believe in it and want these ideals to come into reality or did they merely do it for the romanticism?
It's very hard to tell.
If they really put in the effort then why did the communist party of the UK not reach the size of the communist parties in Italy and France?
