Stick with me on this..
Many people are starting to wonder, what the hell has happened in the UK. Is seems like it’s come out of nowhere.
Not so. It’s been coming for the last 140 years…
People being jailed for displaying the British flag or simply expressing a view on immigration in terms of the self selected migrants, the chaos, the crime and the sheer numbers and a government not prepared to do anything meaningful about any of it.
Say something counter to the gender ideology narrative and that men can’t be women and have babies and find yourself arrested at Heathrow airport this week like writer Graham Linehan charged with inciting violence because he posted a couple of lame comments on X that no one noticed.
But first…
Back in my previous line of work, apart from the news of the day, there were several topics or names or themes that arose on a regular basis.
Two of which, once you know about and understand them, you begin to see them everywhere.
Everything that’s been going on for the last few decades in Australia and the West more generally, can be viewed through this particular lens.
As it is all brought into fine focus it becomes abundantly clear.
One of the talking points was 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐨 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐬𝐜𝐢, the Italian Marxist and his march through (and capture of) the institutions. (think, The ABC)
The other was 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲 formed 140 years ago by husband and wife team of Sidney and Beatrice Webb and playwright, George Bernard Shaw.
The aim and purpose of the Fabian Society was to promote a democratic socialist society through gradual, collective action, focusing on equality of wealth and wealth redistribution, power, and opportunity. It’s was and is the very essence of DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion)
It was the Webbs and the Fabian Society that founded The London School of Economics
The idea has been to capture and then take control of the institutional watchtowers that police and shape the contours and framework of society.
The strategy of the Fabian Society was similar to Gramci’s long march idea.
Slow and incremental progress so that they didn’t frighten the horses and overtime no one notices. Or to the extent that they do notice, they can’t quite put their finger on it.
Everything is wrapped and labeled euphemistically and in such a harmless and anodyne way so as to disguise the true purpose and intent.
It’s what I referred to back in the day as the boiling frog revolution.
It has been slow, ongoing and incremental so that over a couple of generations no one notices and to the newer, younger generation “it has always been this way”.
You have to congratulate The Fabian Society though for their brutal honesty.
Their badging, branding or logo (whatever you want to call it) was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The images below are unambiguous. The stained glass window is from the LSE.
All of the foregoing is by way of introduction to an interview overnight based on the essay below, describing in detail how in the UK, starting with Tony Blair in the late 1990’s everything was set in train to arrive at the current destination.
It involved not only the capture of the public service (the UK’s deep state) but also the central banking system and even the Conservative Party, and with the establishment of the UK Supreme Court only in 2009, the monarchy as well, making it entirely irrelevant when thought necessary because the imprimatur of the monarch clashed with the progressive project and so the freshly minted Supreme Court overrules the sitting monarch
Bottom line. The UK has been through a revolution and no one is the wiser..
Following is an extract from a piece written by Joseph Robertson (the full essay is at the link)
𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐎𝐍 — 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐝𝐨𝐰: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐚 𝟏𝟒𝟎-𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫-𝐎𝐥𝐝 𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐲 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 (𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐖𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐈𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤)
“… Imagine an enemy that does not declare war. An enemy that does not storm the gates but is invited into the halls of power.
An enemy that wears the face of a friend, speaks the language of progress, and offers the promise of security, all while methodically placing the shackles of tyranny upon a nation.
This is not the plot of a political thriller. This is the story of modern Britain.
For 140 years, a secretive and profoundly subversive organization has been patiently executing a plan to transform a free nation into a socialist state.
It has operated not through revolution, but through infiltration; not with bombs, but with pamphlets; not by seizing power, but by poisoning the wells of culture, education, and government from within.
This organization is the Fabian Society, and its long march through the institutions is now complete.
The government of the United Kingdom is led by its members, the bureaucracy is its army, and the collectivist state it envisioned is no longer a distant threat, but a present and suffocating reality.
This is the story of how they won. More importantly, this is the blueprint for how we win back our country.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐫’𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
If the first century of Fabianism was a slow, patient march, the decade under Tony Blair (a Fabian himself) was a blitzkrieg.
The “New Labour” project, sold to the public as a modernizing, centrist “Third Way,” was in reality the most radical and transformative phase of the Fabian revolution.
Blair did not merely continue the work of his predecessors; he shattered the foundations of the traditional British state through a sweeping constitutional revolution, executed with a speed and audacity that left the nation permanently altered.
This great acceleration, however, could only succeed because the supposed opposition—the Conservative Party—failed to resist. Instead, hollowed out by an infiltration of globalists and social liberals, it became the other face of a “Uniparty” consensus, ensuring the Fabian project would continue unchallenged.
Blair’s government was “hyperactive” on the constitution, treating it not as a sacred inheritance but as just another area of policy to be managed and manipulated by executive power.
This was a deliberate strategy to transform Britain’s unplanned, organic constitution into a codified, statutory system that entrenched the power of a new progressive elite. The assault was multi-pronged.
𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞
The long march is over. The final phase of the conquest has arrived. The current British government is not merely influenced by Fabian ideas; it is directly controlled by dedicated, high-ranking members of the Fabian Society.
The Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer, is a member of the Fabian Society’s powerful Executive Committee. The Deputy Prime Minister, Angela Rayner, is a Fabian member. The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, is the society’s Vice President.
This is not a government influenced by a think tank; this is a think tank that has become the government.
Their ascension is the victory lap, signaling that the institutional capture is so complete that the permanent state can now operate in the open.
This is especially true because the seat of perennial Fabian power is not in Downing Street. It is in the permanent, unelected administrative state they have built over generations.
This is Britain’s “deep state”—a vast, unaccountable bureaucracy that implements a collectivist agenda regardless of the will of the voters.
The political assassination of Liz Truss’s government was a brutal demonstration of this machine’s power. Her “mini-budget” was a direct, existential threat to the statist consensus. The system’s response was swift and decisive.
Truss herself has pointed to the culprits, arguing the market crisis was “precipitated by the Bank of England’s regulatory failures” and lodging a formal complaint against the civil service for a “flagrant breach of the civil service code” after official documents described her policies as “disastrous”.
This was the permanent state using its official apparatus to destroy a democratically elected prime minister who dared to challenge its power.
This pattern of institutional sabotage in Great Britain mirrors the narrative of the “deep state” in the United States and its war against Donald Trump.
In both cases, a populist leader who threatened the power of the permanent bureaucracy was met with a campaign of leaks, hostile briefings, and institutional resistance designed to paralyze and ultimately destroy their administration.
The tactics are the same because the enemy is the same: an unelected, self-preserving administrative state that will defend its power against any democratic challenge…”
