The New Red Threat: Britain's Far-Left (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798298068130)

The New Red Threat: Britain's Far-Left is a hard-hitting investigation into the networks, ideology, and tactics of Britain's contemporary far-left. Drawing on case studies from over a decade, the book traces the activities of groups ranging from militant climate activists to anti-imperialist campaigners, mapping their connections to anarchist and communist traditions as well as their alliances with overseas movements.

The narrative follows high-profile flashpoints, from Palestine Action's arms-factory occupations and headline-grabbing protests, to incendiary chants on festival stages and sets them against a backdrop of rising political polarisation. Through police reports, court outcomes, and documented incidents, the book details how these groups organise, fundraise, and attempt to influence public opinion, while highlighting the state's responses, from proscription orders to terrorism charges.

Blending reportage with political analysis, The New Red Threat argues that far-left activism in Britain is not a relic of the Cold War, but an evolving force capable of disruption on a national scale. Whether one sees these activists as principled dissenters or dangerous extremists, the book offers a comprehensive account of their resurgence and the implications for law, order, and democracy.
