After having read 'The Leader' a couple of years ago, and also after having read some TL's in which Sir Oswald Mosley leads the BUF to victory one way or another, it seems most people believe that he would've been a suck-up to Hitler, and that he would be discussing a removal of British jews with Hitler.
Now Oswald himself was not extremely anti-semitic, he only used anti-semitism for political gain (it was William Joyce who was the real anti-semitic of the party.) So I think this rules out any 'Final Solution' discussion between Hitler and Mosley. It also seems that the British Union of Fascists didn't have Nazi ideologies, but instead modeled itself on Italian Fascism, and although it was anti-communist, let's all be quite honest, who at the time (other than the communists,) did like the communists? It's just some parties showed this more than others (while the Nazi's believe in the absolute destruction of Bolshevism.)
Also, I can't imagine Mosley to be some whimpering, pathetic man under Hitler, he could be allies with him, but I don't think that if Hitler told Mosley to do anything, he'd just bow down and do it. I can imagine him standing up to Hitler, and possibly becoming enemies with him (Mosley was very much a British Nationalist.) Or maybe if not enemies, possibly Sir Oswald would simply keep Britain isolationist during the War, I don't think he should get any stick for this, seeing as if the events in 'The Leader' occurred in which Sir Oswald took power through a kind of Putsch during the crisis in which King Edward VIII didn't abdicate, I could imagine him being slightly like America was, possibly helping France or some other nation through lend-leases.
Also I can imagine a slight rise of fascism in Europe after another one of the 'Western European Nations' 'falls' to Fascism. This would mean that the fascist nations of Europe would be - Germany, Italy, Britain, Spain (technically an 'Authoritarian State',) and Portugal (again technically a authoritarian dictatorship.) But could other parties in some nations, such as Action Française or some other political party coming to prominence in a country such as France, or maybe the General Dutch Fascist League in the Netherlands.
Sorry for blabbering but I wanted people to realize that Mosley wasn't a 'omg teh nazi evulness.'
So after all I've written what are your thoughts? Let's say he becomes Prime Minister with a POD like 'The Leader'. What do you think would really happen afterwards? You've read my views, so I'd be interested in reading yours.
