Contents

Politics

The stated goal of the movement is to unite all European natives under one flag, hence the name "Imperium Europa" (European Empire), leading to "a Europid bond forged through Spirituality closely followed by Race, nurtured through High culture, protected by High Politics, enforced by the Elite.". See the Cosmotheism of the late Dr. William L. Pierce.

Norman Lowell contested the first European Parliament elections that were held in Malta on June 12, 2004, obtaining 1,603 first-count votes from a total of 250,691 votes cast (0.64%).[1] Lowell again contested the European Parliamentary elections in Malta on June 6, 2009. He received 3,559 votes,[2] out of 322,411 cast,[3] for just over one percent of the vote.

Campaigning heavily against illegal immigrants, Lowell was the party's candidate in the 11th and 12th Districts in the March 2008 parliamentary election. He obtained 84 votes on first count from both districts, obtaining 0.03% of the overall votes.

Norman Lowell is a staunch supporter and admirer of Carmelo Borg Pisani, who was executed in 1942 for treason.

Political descriptions

The mainstream media has described Lowell as a racist,[4] antisemitic[5] and a Nazi-sympathiser.[6] Lowell insists that he is a racialist.[7][8] Lowell has also stated that he is "neither a Nazi nor a Fascist nor a Neo-Nazi" and that he would be "booted out of a Nazi party within five minutes" because he's "a strong libertarian."[9] He has described Mein Kampf as "The Book", Adolf Hitler as "The Hero"[10] and the Holocaust as a "holy hoax". He has also praised Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who has also questioned whether the Holocaust occurred.[11][12]

Legal Controversies

On March 27, 2008, Norman Lowell, was sentenced to a two-year jail term, suspended for four years, due to his conviction on three charges of racial hatred, and one charge of insulting the President of Malta. He was also ordered to pay a fine of 500 Euros.

Speaking outside the courthouse, Norman Lowell told reporters, and a small crowd, "this is a sad day, a very sad day for the Maltese. The lights of freedom have been extinguished. We are going back to the medieval ages. The media will be the first victims of the establishment since they have to be extra careful on how they report items."[13]

On January 10, 2006, Norman Lowell filed a civil libel suit against Malta Today editor Saviour Balzan. Lowell contends that two of the publication's articles, one entitled Norman Lowell organises BBQ, and another entitled Lowell’s neo-Nazis hit out at press after arson attack, as well as an editorial entitled Get the bastards now, before it is too late, constitute a "coordinated, strategic, and orchestrated" effort to undermine his public reputation.[14]

Books

Norman Lowell is the author of two published books, Credo: A Book for the Very Few,[15] and Imperium Europa - A Book that Changed the World.
