Established in 1980 by David Irving and his Focus Group, FPP initially aimed to preserve British cultural heritage through the ‘Focal Point’ newsletter, reaching a dedicated circle of 500. By 1982, in response to increasing external pressures and challenges to free expression, FPP initiated an International Campaign for Real History. This effort, underscored by a series of global historical lectures, underscores our commitment to presenting ‘Real History’—unbiased and undiluted.
