DANELAW is based upon articles in the anti-Fascist magazine
SEARCHLIGHT in the early 1990's, which reported an attempt by the
neo-Nazi group COMBAT 18 to establish a white-supremacist homeland
in East Anglia, with Chelmsford as the capital. COMBAT 18 was then
under the leadership of `Charlie' Sergeant. However, the attempt
failed when the party's accountant tried to abscond with party
funds and was caught and stabbed to death by Sergeant in a caravan
park in Harlow. At the same time as these articles there also
appeared in the magazine reports of so-called `honey-trap'
operations by the Secret Service whereby advertisements for new
far-right parties were placed in various neo-Nazi magazines and
then anyone who applied was placed on record. I combined these two
reports into a plot in which the Secret Service decide to set up
DANELAW, a whites-only homeland based on the ancient Viking Danelaw
of the 9th and 10th centuries, train any applicants into a private
army with the apparent intention of attacking mosques, and then at
the last minute swoop and arrest them all. Cliff, a sometime
football hooligan, is serving a five year prison sentence for
assaulting an Asian man when he is visited by the mysterious Mr.
Warboys, a "business entrepreneur" who offers him the chance to
re-establish the DANELAW - the Golden Age of Viking rule . . . and
so begins a darkly-comic tragedy of violence and death . . .
