For too long now we have been playthings of massive corporations whose sole aim is to convert our world into one gigantic shopping mall. Pleasantry and civility are bing discarded as the worthless ephemera of a bygone age. An age when men doffed their hats to the ladies while children could be counted onto mind your jack russell while you took a mild and bitter in the pub. Nowadays the quaint tea shop and bistro have giben place to drive through hamburger chains. Customers are herded in and out rather like the cows used to furnish the jolly old fodder. Youth has suffered as well instad of having a jolly old time peacocking about chasing the girls, having fresha air, boating and college, what ho. Their lives are one-long-upmanship of trainers, tracksuits, baseball caps, tee shirts, that footballers sell for lots of money. Youth is a walking advertisement for big business who are slowly taking over our lives. Instead of the jolly old darts and beer in the pub, old pipe by the fire and whisky with grandad they are herded into large halls with ever larger TV screens and watch footvall while drinking chemically made artificial alchohol called larger. In short our superb britishness is banishing under this vulgar take over by American capitalism of big business.

But from the late 1990s a new breed has begun appearing - these chappists are called 'anacho-dandysts'. Theser are a new kind of anarchists - gone has punk and goth. These people are learning the importance of britishness, real beer, pipe, manners, the Queen (Her Majesty, not the band). They can be identified by the fact they wear trad dandy attire, like a tweed suit, velvet jacket, evening wear and stiff collar. In fact they are very goth but without the music. Right around the world it has spread from Britain to Seattle. Attack son Macdonalds led to a Mr Dark Wood publishing the chap manifesto in 2001.

The charmed uprising of tweed revolution numbers are small but the united confederacy of dandyst anarchists or United Confederacy of Anarcho-DAndyst - UCAD for short welcomes any who have got fed up with the vulgar way of things and wants to re-establish matters, style chic in the world to day. E-mail Sir Percy Hampton Rogers, the Secretary c/o info@londonhorrortours.co.uk. We shall also meet a 7.30pm the first Monday of the month at the Princess of Wales public house 22 Chalcot Road NW1 8LL - this is in Camden near Primrose Hill.
