ResPublica calls itself 'an independent, non-partisan public policy think-tank' it was established in 2009 by Phillip Blond.[1]
The think tank says it works 'on a variety of cutting edge research projects, such as examining how the UK can develop more innovative public services by empowering front-line professionals and their client communities'.[2] An article in the Sunday Times about Phillip Blond is subtitled:
- The radical thinker who has bewitched the Tory high command with his ‘third way’ tells how he could make the Conservatives the party of the poor and mend broken Britain.[3]
Unusually for a think tank, ResPublica is set up as a private company which means that it is able to make a profit.[4] Think tanks are usually set up as not for profit organisations.
