RCP/Spiked/IoI

[DaveCinzano]

Did Clare Fox go to Oxbridge?

If only there was a really easy way that someone posting on an internet bulletin board could swiftly find out basic biographical information about a person who has been in the public eye for a number of years

 

[LDC]

Yeah ? And ? So ? What ?

Seems bit odd tbh that's all, especially when your posts are slightly conspiratorial in nature on this subject.

 

[killer b]

All posts about the RCP lot are by defaul conspiratorial. It is a conspiracy after all.

Towards Britain’s Year Zero

Never paid any attention to Spiked, but this is all over the place. Whinging and missing the point. Ugh.

I´ve looked at it a few times. It just seems like the Daily Mail with pseudo-intellectual pretensions, wretchedly genuflecting in the face of power.

American Literature at Warwick and a PGCE from Thames Poly.

Not forgetting in the middle of these two she attended PNL (Polytechnic of North London) where she signed on for a course for 5 minutes in order to take a place on the student exec as Woman's Officer and then one of the three Vice-President positions. At the same time other RCP members were 'encouraged' to become students at PNL too. I know this because one of them was a friend of mine who sadly died not long after from a brain hemorrhage. While there they did their best to disrupt other (other?) student left groups such as the SWP who had built up a base largely due to and following on from the Harrington campaign from which PNL had gained a radical reputation.

I took my parents(!) to an IFM talk at (then) UNL

Never let that anger slip or before you know it you'll be dancing at rainbow rhythms and drinking kombucha.

 

[killer b]

What's wrong with kombucha??

 

[LDC]

What's wrong with kombucha??

Nothing, it's yeasty tea and sugar or something. But IT DOESN'T CURE ANYTHING no matter what the hippies say.

 

[planetgeli]

You can't help but wonder can you. She also did an M.A and PhD at University of Kent. In Sociology (after a B.A in Literature at Oxford), but I don't know if Ferudi was still there (actively) in 2004 (M.A) and 2009 (PhD).

Oh and apparently he was. There's a profile of her on Radio4 right now. They just moved seamlessly from "she worked closely with Ferudi at Kent" to "but becoming disillusioned with the revolutionary Left went to work with a right wing think tank" - as you do.

Pseuds or pseudo-gang?

Must have been after my time there . I’ve told this loads of times , they used to try and sponge off the left who were trying to do something about the fash at PNL without contributing themselves to the campaign against Harrington . One early afternoon got fed up with them so we put their bookstall in the lift ,one of their lot , a woman flung herself somewhat dramatically at the bookstall protecting the books so we simply pressed the lift button . Her and her bookstall went to the ground floor .

 

[Micky D]

I could be wrong but the RCP seem to have popped up here there and everywhere

 

[planetgeli]

1988 was her (Fox) year of entry I think. She was woman's officer following on from Liza or the year after. Maybe 89 but we think 88. Just after you?

Good to see Sp!ked among the network of Conservative media outlets that have been caught out publishing articles by fake journalists:

Right-Wing Media Outlets Duped by a Middle East Propaganda Campaign

Conservative sites like Newsmax and Washington Examiner have published Middle East hot takes from “experts” who are actually fake personas pushing propaganda.

Sp!ked isn't mentioned in the article by name, but on Twitter the author has pointed out a number of articles on Sp!ked by fake journalist Joyce Toledano:

Who's RCP in that picture? It doesn't look like their 80's style

 

[tim]

It's Clair Fox sitting on Ghislaine Maxwell who in turn is sitting on a young Brendan O'Neill. Ghislaine cut her links with the RCP after suspecting Furedi of having rocked her dad's boat just a little bit to much.

Really? Do you have a reliable source for that photo tim as it doesn't look like either O'Neill or Fox. And Fox didn't go to Oxford.

Somehow I doubt Ms Fox would have been allowed into the Chelsea Arts Club Ball, not in 1985 or any other year.

People change as they age, and the photo was taken at the Chelsea Arts Club not in Oxford. Anyway, who else could it be? It must be one of them, otherwise Micky D wouldn't have posted it.

 

[planetgeli]

Tim's having a laugh. Claire Fox isn't in that picture.

If that is him, he would also have been RCP in 85. Plus since then a bit of Spiked writing, anti-anthropocene contrarianism and founder of the Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding (or bombin' and robbin'). Just how many of these fuckers are out there?
