"in short they did not,"
In short - yes they did, but some of them were forced to keep their heads down to avoid prison.
The Right Club continued to exist and meet throughout the war and even before the the war ended Ramsey was back in Parliament calling for Antisemitic legislation to be put in place - you have been given the evidence for that having happened.
They remained, waiting in the wings to form a Government in the hope that Hitler won the war and none of them were removed from office for their fascist activities - they brought their fascism back
k to The House of Lords, back to Parliament.
The fact that they did not to it publicly is neither here nor there - they remained a threat to democracy and to the British people who had made the sacrifices they had fighting the fascism they espoused.
"Misguided" - someone who gets lost in the middle of London is misguided - these people supported sending six million human beings to be exterminated - and they continued to hold the views that caused that brought about that holocaust - some in responsible and powerful positions.
