The National Conservatives had a rally in London this week. I wanted to write something, but the Guardian summary will suffice.
It's barely disguised now.
From the fine article:
Perhaps the speech most reported on was by the Tory backbencher Miriam Cates, who part-channelled Viktor Orbán and Giorgia Meloni in describing low birthrates as an existential crisis for the west. The populist leaders of Hungary and Italy are explicit in wanting more domestic-born children as against immigrants, a point Cates did not make, although it was arguably implicit. More striking still was her argument that the lack of babies was down to “cultural Marxism that is systematically destroying our children’s souls”.
This was also the conference where Jacob Rees-Mogg (a member of the current UK government) spoke and admitted that recent changes to electoral law in England and Wales were an attempt at gerrymandering, to disenfranchise people who might vote for parties other than his, but that it had backfired. The Conservatives appear to have disenfranchised many of their own voters.
It's in plain sight now. These are National Conservatives, the NatCs.
There is not much more to be said.
Update: Judging by the discourse below, there certainly is more to be said. Once again I will not say it myself. Instead I'll post a link to SNP MP Mhairi Black's f-word speech given to Parliament last year.

I wasn't the one who said "You're not describing people who give the tiniest squirt about being hypocrites." It's not relevant how little those people care about being hypocrites. What's relevant is how everyone else cares about them being hypocrites. Sounds like you care a great deal, and I bet you're in the majority here.
Nazi slavers? Who are they and who are they enslaving? I think it's interesting how we have all this bombastic language backed by zero proof that there's anything to the accusations. You won't be able to fight real Nazis by being as deluded.

Confederate flag wavers are wannabe slavers, and the GOP has had numerous Nazi flags at their events along with Nazi symbolism as official decoration. You can bury your head in the sand all you want but those not in your cult can clearly see what you support. You are free to stop defending fascists at any time, and you can even switch to defending victims of fascism. You do you babe.

Sorry, but no.
Then you should be able to show evidence for that, right? My take is that if that were true, then I wouldn't be hearing about this from an AC on the internet.
The problem is that what you can "clearly see" isn't real.
