Civitas
Supposedly independent of the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA), but the advisory board of IEA stalwarts Sir Peter Walters, Lord Ralph Harris of High Cross (Bruges group with Norris McWhirter etc.), Patrick Barbour and Kenneth Minogue contradicts this. Director (ex-Labour councillor) David Green has been IEA since 1984. It focuses on race, health and welfare reform promoting Charles Murray and the 'underclass'.
