Wokeness, from talk of ‘systemic racism’ to the jargon of gender identity, now sits at the heart of the British establishment.

Don’t believe me? Take a look at the attitudes and values of Britain’s civil service, the beating heart of our governing elite…

…In this cosy relationship between the uber-woke and the machinery of the state we can see the emergence of wokeness as a ruling ideology – a means by which our cultural and political elites can justify their privileged position. Promoted with especial zeal in private schools, and championed within universities, wokeness allows out elites to assert their moral superiority, to pose as more caring than the unthinking masses, who are supposedly adrift in a sea of unconscious bias and unwitting racism.
