What would be hard right if not the nationalist brexit party

Compared to what? The Brexit Party has several ex-members of the Revolutionary Communist Party.

They are, bizarrely, hard-right these days; they pivoted straight round the horseshoe in the mid-90s. Claire Fox is now a baroness, which tells you exactly how revolutionary or communist she is.

Ok. So what would constitute as hard/far left?

Under your definitions' it seems like being a nationalist (believing in the nation-state and sovereignty) & white supremacy are synonymous — which obviously they are not, unless you are suggesting all nationalists are racist or something.

The people left of the Green party, or left of Corbyn.

The communist party, Socialist Labour Party (borderline), Respect. The people advocating a ban on eating meat, private cars etc.
