Kerry Raymond Bolton & the Order of the Left Hand Path

Kerry Raymond Bolton (born 1956) is a far-right activist in New Zealand.[1] He has been involved in many organisations and has written publications focused around politics and on his interest in metaphysics, religion, and the occult.[2]

Bolton founded the Order of the Left Hand Path (OLHP) in 1992,[2] following a quarrel with other members of the Temple of Set.[3] The Order of the Left Hand Path was a study group based around the ideas of Nietzsche, Jung and Spengler, with some mystical trappings.[2] Two years later Bolton renamed it the Ordo Sinistra Vivendi (Order of the Sinister Way).[2] At this time, in 1994, he created the Black Order.[2][4] It claimed to have a network of national lodges in six European countries plus Australia and the U.S.[2] It was intended to be an activist front promoting an "occult-fascist axis" by mobilising political groups and youth culture elements such as industrial music.[2] Bolton created and edited the Black Order newsletter, The Flaming Sword, and its successor, The Nexus, a journal that focused largely on the politically heretical with special attention given to figures from neo-völkisch movements like Savitri Devi, Julius Evola and Ezra Pound and which catered to the satanic-Nazi-metal movement. It later changed its name to Western Destiny.[2]

Bolton was a co-founder of the Nationalist Workers' Party,[2] and secretary for the New Zealand Fascist Union in 1997,[5] in which he promoted the 'patriotic socialism' of 1930s Labour hero John A. Lee.[6] In the mid-2000s, he was the secretary of the New Zealand National Front[7][8][9] and spokesman for the New Right group.[10][11] He also helped lead the National Front during the late 1970s and early 1980s.[12]

Bolton was educated at Hutt Valley Technical College, in Lower Hutt, and currently lives in Paraparaumu.

In 2008, a masters thesis written about Bolton that had been published by the Waikato University was pulled from the library pending an investigation after Bolton complained to the Vice-Chancellor.[1][13][14] The thesis, titled "Dreamers of the Dark: Kerry Bolton and the Order of the Left Hand Path; a Case-study of a Satanic/Neo Nazi Synthesis", dealt with the link between neo-Nazi and satanic beliefs in New Zealand.[1][14] It had been passed by the university, had been reviewed by senior academics from two other universities, and had received full class honors.[1][13] Professor Dov Bing, who supervised the thesis, called it a first-class piece of work.[1][13] Bolton said the thesis was "poorly researched" and was "a poorly contrived smear-document against a private individual, namely myself".[1][11]


Bolton speaks!

On the Holocaust (Adelaide Institute)
“…we only hear fictitious blather about the supposed “Holocaust”. Why? Whose interests are still being served after all this time? Think!”

Bolton on the instigators of WWII (Adelaide Institute)
“German Jews were rounded up as enemy aliens, since their own leaders publicly declared “war” on Hitler the very year he achieved Government, 1933, at a time when there were few restrictions put on Jews. The Jews, under Samuel Untermeyer organised a world economic boycott to try and wreck Germany economically. Jews and their communist allies organised boycotts of shops that sold Germany (sic) goods. People were beaten up by Jewish-communist thugs if they tried to resist.”

Bolton on Adolf Hitler (Adelaide Institute)
“Everyone is out for themselves, all dance around the golden calf. Jesus drove the moneychangers out of the Temple. The Pharisees had Him crucified. Hitler drove the moneychangers from the German nation. The descendants of the same Pharisees had him crucified, and are still doing so. In fact, the same criminal gang who thinks they’ve been ‘chosen’ to rule the world is crucifying our whole Western Civilisation.”

Nexus interviews Kerry Bolton
Nexus: “[Correspondence to the Listener magazine and the Adelaide Institute website comprises statements from you that could be construed as Holocaust denial.] Are you a Holocaust denier?
Bolton: “Uh, I’ve got an open mind on the subject.”
Nexus: “Okay, but what I’m asking is; would you describe yourself as a Holocaust denier?”
Bolton: “Oh no no. No. Not as such.”
Nexus: “What are your views on it then?”
Bolton: “Oh, I believe that certain aspects of it can be questioned, as can any part of history.”
Nexus: “Specifically, in your letter to the Listener, you claimed that the gas chambers at Auschwitz were insufficient to have gassed as many Jews as claimed.”
Bolton: “Mm.”
Nexus: “Would you stand by that statement?”
Bolton: “Um, well, I’m not an expert on the subject. I thought it was worth raising; I can’t even remember the context I wrote the letters there, but I… (trails off)”
Nexus: “It might be wise to. They’re still on the internet, and available.”
Bolton: “Um, I can’t recall the, um… Well, as I say. The, er – I’m not an expert on the subject but I think that, you know, questions have been raised that need addressing, and that’s about as far as I’ll go. The thing is, you see is, surely, anything to do with research and scholarship requires, you know, one to found an opinion based on what one knows at any given time, and to leave your mind open to being proven absolutely wrong at any given time.”
