Revolutionary Conservative Caucus

The Revolutionary Conservative Caucus was a pressure group founded that attempted to introduce the ideas of the French New Right into the British Conservative Party.
It was founded in 1992 after the disintegration of Western Goals (UK). It was mainly composed of former members of the "Authoritarian" faction of the Federation of Conservative Students and members of the Monday Club. Former key members of the National Front's executive soon became involved, Tom Acton, Steve Brady and Mark Cotterill.
It met limited success, taking over a ward committee of the Conservative Party before being proscribed by Conservative Central Office. Although disbanded it played a crucial part in right wing politics in Britain, forging links with the French Front National and bringing together many people who have subsequently pushed Euronationalist ideas in such groups as Right Now!, the Conservative Democratic Alliance, the Bloomsbury Forum and the Freedom Party.
