Bloody Nasty People: The Rise of Britain's Far Right is a 2012 book about far-right politics in the United Kingdom by British author and journalist Daniel Trilling.
The book charts the rise (and fall) of far-right organisations such as the British National Party and the English Defence League.
The book was commended by Yasmin Alibhai-Brown in The Independent, who noted that Trilling has "written an instructive account of white extremism in Britain", [1] while in The Guardian, David Edgar described it as a "brisk, compelling narrative". [2] Labour MP Jon Cruddas, who defeated a BNP challenge in Dagenham and Rainham in 2010 also reviewed the book for the New Statesman. [3] Reviews also appeared in Foreign Affairs, [4] New Republic [5] and The Scotsman. [6] Time Out London referred to the work as "pure pavement-pounding journalism" and Owen Jones praised it as "authoritative and eloquent". [7]
