Mark Cotterill, the former National Front (NF) southwest regional organiser, has defected to the Conservative Party. Cotterill joined the Torbay Conservative Party in January following a disastrous showing by the Front in the 1992 general elections and a drastic decline in support for them across the country. While many NF branches have been incorporated into the British National Party, Cotterill established the Patriotic Forum; while the Forum claimed to reflect "conservative opinion", all of its key posts were held by former National Front members. The Forum's magazine, British Patriot, has advocated "entryism" of the Tory Party and it is beyond doubt that this is Cotterill's intention.
