The Fabian Network

The Fabian Society pursues the above policies through a worldwide spider-web of organisations at the centre of which there are a few dozen key institutions it has founded or over which it exerts direct or indirect control or influence, and of which we may give the following illustrative sample:

The Royal Economic Society (RES): Founded in 1890 as the British Economic Association by Fabian leader Bernard Shaw, the RES has always been run by members and collaborators of the Fabian Society, notably Lord Haldane, W H Beveridge, J M Keynes and R Portes.
The London School of Economics (LSE): Founded in 1895 by the Fabian Society and later funded by the Rockefellers. Operates in partnership with other Rockefeller-associated outfits like the Institute of Political Studies (IEP Paris) and the School of International and Public Affairs of Columbia University.; The LSE is currently [2012] chaired by Peter Sutherland, who is also chairman of Goldman Sachs International (the London-based HQ of the U.S. investment banking group's European operations), honorary chairman of the Trilateral Commission (Europe) and head of the U.N. Global Forum on Migration and Development. This clearly shows that the LSE interlocks with organisations representing the leading elements of international finance, as well as with the United Nations, an organisation the Fabian Society and its front organisation, the Labour Party, are promoting as a world government in the making.
Imperial College, London: Founded in 1907 by Sidney Webb with the assistance of his friend Lord Haldane and their collaborator Lord Rosebery (who also served as president of the Fabians' LSE and chancellor of London University), and with funds from Wernher, Beit (see above). Sir Evelyn de Rothschild has been a governor of Imperial College as well as of the LSE.
National Union of Students (NUS): Co-founded in 1922 by the LSE and London University (another Fabian-controlled institution with which the LSE had merged earlier). NUS is also a close collaborator of the Federation of Student Islamic Societies (FOSIS). See also "Socialism Exposed"
National Institute of Economic and Social Research (NIESR): Founded in 1938, NIESR is a Fabian-Keynesian outfit set up with Rockefeller funds by LSE graduate and banker Josiah Stamp. Its leading figures have included: LSE Professor of Economics and Political Science Tomothy Besley (chairman); Nicholas Monk, son of Fabian Society general secretary Bosworth Monk (president); Lord Burns, a fellow of the London School of Business, vice-president of the Royal Economic Society and director of the left-wing Pearson Group (president); and Jonathan Portes (director).
Oxfam: Co-founded in 1942 by Gilbert Murray, a friend of Fabian luminaries like G. B. Shaw and H. G. Wells and president of the Fabian organisation League of Nations Society (LNS).
London Business School (LBS), University of London: Founded in 1965 by representatives of the Fabian-controlled LSE and Imperial College.
Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC): Founded in 1965 under the government of former Fabian Society chairman Harold Wilson and having as chief executive leading Fabian Michael (later Lord) Young, who alone was responsible for the creation of over 60 like-minded organisations.; The ESRC was originally known as Social Science Research Council (SSRC) and was clearly a clone of the U.S. organisation of the same name. The latter was founded in 1923 by Charles E. Merriam, who was associated with the American Fabian League and the London Fabian Society, in collaboration with the American Economic Association, itself founded by Fabian Society founders Thomas Davidson and Sidney Webb (Martin, pp. 123-4, 281). While the American SSRC has been bankrolled by the Rockefellers and associated interests, its British counterpart has been funded by the Department for Business. The two organisations have always maintained close links to each other and to the LSE.
The John Smith Memorial Fund (JSMF): Founded in 1966 to promote the ideas of former Fabian and Labour leader John Smith. Its advisory board includes Fabians like Lord Dubbs, former Fabian Society chairman.
The Runnymede Trust: Set up in 1968 by Fabian Society honorary treasurer (later chairman) Anthony Lester and currently chaired by LSE graduate and founder of the Cultural Diversity Network, Clive Jones (see below).
Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR): The CEPR has been described as an "interface between academia and the policy community", and was established in 1983 by Richard Portes, a former Rhodes Scholar and Harvard professor of economics with close links to Rockefeller interests and the Fabian Society, currently chairman of the International Growth Centre's (an LSE outfit) Global Crisis Group. CEPR is funded by the Rockefellers' JP Morgan and Citigroup and associated left-wing banks like UBS, Barclays, Bank of England, Bank for International Settlements and European Central Bank.
The Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR): Founded in 1988 with former LSE lecturer and Fabian Society chairman Tessa Blackstone, as chairman of the board of trustees. Advised by bodies like the Progressive Migration Advisory Group whose members include former Fabian Society general secretary Sunder Katwala.
Progress: This is a Blairite (New Labour) think-tank and pressure group co-founded in 1996 by Derek Draper and Liam Byrne. Draper was a top lobbyist with Brussels-based PR and government lobbying firm GPC Market Access which was owned by the Anglo-American PR consultancy Countrywide Porter Novelli. Byrne, a former Fulbright Scholar at Harvard Business School, was a banker with N.M. Rothschild & Sons as well as a member of the Fabian Society.; "Progress" directors, chairmen and presidents have included leading Fabians like Fabian Society general secretary and later chairman Stephen Twigg; Jessica Asato, chairman of the Fabian Research and Publications Committee; and various other Fabian Society members, supporters, partners and collaborators such as Richard Angell, Dan Jarvis, Alison McGovern and John Woodcock. Progress sponsors, partners and collaborators include Fabian organisations like the Fabian Society, British Future and IPPR. Being affiliated with the Labour Party, Progress is a major source of Fabian influence on the Labour Party after the Fabian Society itself.
The Smith Institute: Named after John Smith (see above), the institute was founded in 1997 by the Fabian Gordon Brown, a protege of John Smith.
Policy Network: Founded in 1999 by Fabian Socialist Prime Minister Tony Blair, Germany's Social Democrat Chancellor Gerhard Schroder and America's Democratic President Bill Clinton, to promote international Socialism. Chaired by Fabian Lord Mandelson.
The Creative Diversity Network (CDN): Founded in 2000 as the Cultural Diversity Network by Carlton TV chief executive Clive Jones, the CDN is a coalition of television broadcasters ITV, BBC, ITN, Channel 4, Channel 5 and Sky, promoting "cultural diversity".
Policy Exchange: Established in 2002. Although described as a "conservative think-tank", we find among its senior research fellows the likes of John Willman, former general secretary of the Fabian Society.
Global Forum on Migration and Development (GFMD): Founded in 2006 by LSE chairman Peter Sutherland at the instigation of Rockefeller-lieutenant and U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan.
British Future: Founded in 2007 and directed by the Fabian Sunder Katwala. Co-funded by LSE-graduate George Soros' Open Society Foundation.
Migration Advisory Committee (MAC): Founded in 2007 by Fabian Home Secretary John Reid. Professor David Metcalf, Emeritus Professor at the Centre for Economic Performance at the LSE, was appointed chairman from December 2007 to August 2013.
UK Border Agency (UKBA): Formed in 2008 as the Labour Government's border control agency by Fabian Immigration Minister and Progress co-founder Liam Byrne, a former Rothschild banker who is also co-founder of the Young Fabians magazine Anticipations.

Conclusion

Needless to say, the activities of the above organisations are largely taking place without the participation, knowledge or approval of the general public and often contrary to its wishes and interests. The involvement of "charity" organisations in Fabian schemes is particularly reprehensible, given that it exploits the unsuspecting public's generosity in the cause of covert political agendas that ultimately work against the interests of the public.

It follows that the Fabian Society belongs to a network of subversive organisations seeking to expand their power and influence and impose an undemocratic agenda on Britain, Europe and the world by undemocratic means and in collaboration with undemocratic international money interests. This network and its activities must be indicted, exposed and combated by all citizens who value truth, democracy and freedom.

In the words of Eric Butler, the advance of the undemocratic Left or Communism "is not going to be halted until the Fabian socialist smokescreen is swept away by effective exposure and, even more important, the Fabian economic, financial and political policies are first halted and then reversed" (Butler, p. 47).

"It had long been realized that the only secure basis for oligarchy is collectivism. Wealth and privilege are most easily defended when they are possessed jointly. The so-called 'abolition of private property' meant in effect the concentration of property in far fewer hands than before...with the result, forseen and intended beforehand, that economic inequality has been made permanent."
-- George Orwell, "1984"
