Resistance (formerly Young BNP, Youth BNP, YBNP) is the youth section of the British National Party (BNP). In 2002, the then-Young BNP chairman Mark Collett, now the leader of Patriotic Alternative, chose the Odal rune as the logo for his organisation, then described as the Young BNP. In 2010 it was named BNP Crusaders but in 2011 it changed its name to "Resistance". The group falls under the arm of the British Nationalist Youth Movement with other groups such as BNP Students. The YBNP claimed to be a civil rights movement and student pressure group for indigenous British students from 6th form onwards.

Student BNP

Student BNP was part of the British Nationalist Youth Movement along with YBNP. In 2010, Student BNP closed down and BNP Crusaders was formed in replacement.
