The Empire Loyalists was a fancy name that a group of former members of the British Union of Fascists gave themselves. The name suggests "loyalty to the (British) Empire", but they were white supremacists and anti-Jewish.
The above is nonsense. The League of Empire Loyalists (LEL) were neither white supremists nor anti-Jewish. They were certainly anti-Immigration and anti-zionist
but that is very different from the answer given above.
The LEL's leader, AK Chesterton, refused to ban Jews from membership.
The LEL was more of a conservative pressure group than a political party, although it eventually became one of the constituent parts of the National Front.
They were colonists who did not agree with the reasons for revolution against the British empire and most moved north into Canada.
Loyalists fought for the British because they were loyal to the crown. The colonists who were rebelling were called Patriots.

During the American Revolutionary Period, particularly after 1783, loyalists from the fledgling United States of America often started new lives in either Great Britain itself or the British colonies that would later become the nation of Canada. It should be noted that not all loyalists chose to leave America, but those who did typically found refuge in areas that remained under the control of the 'mother-country' of Great Britain.
Those who remained loyal to Britain were known as loyalists, or United Empire Loyalists.
