Chris Evans (also known as Chris Ellison, his 'party' name in the Revolutionary Communist Party) is an academic at Brunel University lecturing in multimedia[1] and is associated with the libertarian anti-environmental LM network. In particular, he wrote for Living Marxism and Spiked,[2] was a co-founder (in 1998) of the Campaign for Internet Freedom/Internet Freedom,[3], spoke at The Great Debate on Technophobia and Technophilia in November 2002.[4]

In a pattern followed by many in the LM network Evans had links with conservative think tanks. For example, he published in the journal of the Institute of Economic Affairs in 1999.[5] His Brunel University web page mentions the IEA publication, and also a further publication on the internet from 2002. It neglects to mention that this was published by the Institute of Ideas.[6] His Brunel page also does not mention any of his RCP/Living Marxism publications (listed below).
