[…] the names of some 350 British companies which have funded the EL since 1972. In line with the thesis suggested by White in his essay (see The Tory Right Between the Wars in Lobster 15) the vast majority of those companies are from the domestic manufacturing sector of the British economy. The report (The […]
[…] the Defenders of the American Constitution. The essay, while fascinating, is too big (about 20 pages) for these columns. However within it there is a short his tory of British League of Empire Loyalists, a rather important group on the British post-war right, about which there is almost no current published material. Here, extracted […]
[…] a digest of research into the British right-wing which Hughes, like a few others on the British Left began in the mid 1980s; and a rather perfunc tory account of the covert operations against the Wilson government and the rise of Thatcherism.

[…] long – far too long for publication – letter from me to the Spectator on 27 March 1990. Here are two sections from that. Here the s tory is much more complicated than Ware would have us believe. I was working on the Wallace story, as a researcher to Channel 4 News’ Robert Parker, […]
[…] – now available on T-shirts! – is; Question consensus reality. Well, amen to that. However, the bit of “consensus reality” – and Banner really means consensus his tory – which seems to be getting questioned most in the California of Mr Banner, is the existence of the Holocaust.
