Searchlight is a British magazine, founded in 1975 by Gerry Gable and Maurice Ludmer, which publishes exposés about racism, antisemitism and fascism in the United Kingdom and elsewhere.

Searchlight's main focus is on the far right in the United Kingdom, as well as covering similar entities in other countries. The magazine is published and edited by Gerry Gable. An archive of historical materials associated with the magazine, The Searchlight Archive, is housed at the University of Northampton.[1]

As of 2024 the magazine is published quarterly, but it has been announced that it will cease on-paper publication after the Spring 2025 issue, which marks the 50th anniversary of it being in print. Investigations and reporting will continue via features on the magazine's website, with posts on Twitter/X (@Searchlight_mag) and the Facebook group 'Searchlight - the anti-fascist magazine'. [2]
