The Modern Movement, now defunct, was associated with the libertarian anti-environmental LM network. Following a demonstration by the Modern Movement in favour of airport expansion, one commentator observed "After just a cursory look around its website, it soon becomes apparent that the Modern Movement is yet another sanctuary (like Spiked, Living Marxism, Institute of Ideas, Manifesto Club etc etc) for the former members and ideological descendants of the Revolutionary Communist Party and their "the progress of mankind must never be interrupted or hindered, like, ever" views."" [1]
In the same blog the following day, James Heartfield provided a link to photos of another Modern Movement demonstration in Parliment Square. [2]
A Modern Movement event was advertised on the Institute of Ideas website alongside other network entities [3], introduced by LM stalwart Austin Williams.
The movement was co-founded by LM associate Alex Hochuli [4]
