Chilling, Bear. Sends shivers up and down my spine to read your analysis. Thank you to the journalists, investigators and researchers uncovering this treachery. The stuff of nightmares. Warnings need to be communicated much louder than currently in the UK media and across social media to reach ordinary people who "take no notice of politics" and who will, as with USA, vote their country blindly into becoming a fascist state. You don't mention the links to Putin's Russia or the extreme political similarities between their political ideology and that of the US Project 2025 and CFABB/Resolute 1850, though I cannot be the only one to see such similarities. If I were religious, I'd pray for us all and the future.

The “Vance whisperer” “philosopher king” Orr is very, very dangerous,

His contacts and fellow ‘thinkers’ are all abhorrent, as highlighted by the students at the faculty of divinity, Cambridge 2022

Perhaps the Home Secretary should be investigating this nest of vipers more closely……🤬

Dear Mr Bear, a well researched piece, until the BBC, ITV and Sky news pick up on this and bring it to the people through their channels and websites, I feel nothing will happen, no light will be shone on CFABB.

People in the UK I think are too blasé about what's coming down the line, how many people have actually seen the ICE raids on any media in the UK, these things are happening 4000 miles away and as one Donnie Trump said "There's a big shiny ocean between us."

What's happening in America and what could happen here are too far apart, geographically.

Essentially a coup. It’s making me very, very anxious.

Thank you for taking the time, it's a warning we should all be heeding.

The blatant attack from Jenrick on judges is a perfect example of how frightfully right you are

If only you had fingers Mr. Bear, we could describe you as having them "on the pulse".

Instead, we shall have to suffice by saying you have a "Paw on the Pulse".

As a nation, we need to be highly alert to the trans-Atlantic flow of wealth led elitist politics.

As you have rightly identified, ALL the warning signs are there. The script is laid bare (or bear?)

Brexit has helped to create a divide and this looks like the next stage. Problem is there are many people who would think much of this is a good thing especially when fed an ultra processed diet of GB news and social media misinformation. Perhaps Keir Starmer sees the need to create a bridge between the two sides as the fight is going to be in the middle ground for both sides. Very frightening times indeed.

The problem is that not enough people are listening. It’s Brexit all over again. The general British public find politics distasteful and seem content with sound bites and populist rhetoric.

I fear the pendulum is going to continue its swing on its arc to the right.

Oh god, from the warmth and giggles of your new found family to this!

It’s terrifying Bear, absolutely terrifying!

How do we get this out there with the current state of our UK press?

When you have the amount of money like these guys have to throw at media owners who have the morals of an alley cat, what can you do? They’ll print or say what they’re told, they don’t care.

We’re seeing it already with Fartage and Reform, the MSM could tear them to pieces but, barely anything.

I don’t know how America is going to come back from what’s happening to it. I just hope beyond hope that the UK is not so gullible.

I have no problem with original thinking and have tried to do that throughout my former professional career. I was not always right and readily accepted correction or contra thoughts. What has never been acceptable to me is the elite assumption that think tanks are inevitably better at management or governance. A democracy is never perfect and periodic changes of control should bring with them overall improvements capable of being reversed when they prove to be unsatisfactory. Any huge plans similar to those of Project 2025 are as bad as any political ideology or theocracy. They simply cannot work equitably in practice. Money also always raises it's ugly head and the elite group will start to accrue personal wealth. Why don't they work? Because human beings have many faults that lead one group to claim superiority at the expense of the masses. Wellbeing of the whole cannot be improved if the governed have no voice or are deliberately assailed with false information.

The power to correct is still there to use but the messaging is undoubtedly portrayed by the corporate media in a way closer to the mindless insulting posts on the discredited X/Twitter biased responses. The UK is rapidly following the USA where all age groups get there ideas from what is shown on their phones. A correction midterm by a government is portrayed with maximum insults as a U-turn and not a sensible correction. We saw with the dishonest Brexit campaign how debate standards have deteriorated using slogans and dishonest assertion. That continues with faux patriot claims by campaigning groups waving flags as weapons. The serious newspapers of my youth have deteriorated with the primary objective of selling papers or advertising. However, I do believe that our judiciary is genuinely independent of political parties and lobbying so that I believe we can steer a course through this awkward verbally combative period and emerge better. Debate standards in Parliament are not helped by the partisan shouting on Wednesday PMQs but the Lords are still better for now.

I fear our media may have crossed that line with some notable exceptions like The Guardian and perhaps The Economist. Neither of those is widely read.

Useful links. As Bear says, the same people: "The catalyst was an invitation to the Canadian Professor Jordan Peterson to visit, from Dr James Orr, a university lecturer in philosophy of religion "

oh lord Bear, that's terrifying.

Dear Bear, Thank you for your analyses today and yesterday. I’ve been watching from afar, horrified at the damage Trumps minions have been able to inflict on the political structure in the USA but had not considered that we are rapidly approaching a similar upheaval. My bad ! Just because I think Farage and his gang are idiots, doesn’t mean that they and the puppet masters behind them are not equally dangerous. I do hope your investigation gets picked up and amplified by one of the broadsheets (well it would have to be the Grauniad wouldn’t it) or maybe someone who could turn it into a scary tv documentary. Could you write something tomorrow to make me laugh please ? I’m scared enough about the way the world has changed, and not for the better.
