Britain decided its own future once before. It’s time to do so again.

Britain has spent over thirty years being poorly managed. Its infrastructure was sold, its planning system was frozen, its aesthetic standards were quietly abandoned on the grounds that no one had the authority to enforce them. The country that dug the first underground railway, that split the atom at Cavendish, that built the GPO Tower and the Humber Bridge, now debates for a decade before approving a reservoir.

The Anglofuturism Initiative is an independent research organisation founded on the conviction that Britain’s capacity for serious ambition hasn’t gone anywhere. The habit of acting on it has. We exist to make the intellectual case for recovering it, and to produce work rigorous enough that it can be used.
