Leading figures from the prestigious Eton College are scheduled to attend a high-profile right-wing summit in London, organized by the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (Arc). The event, dubbed an "anti-woke" Davos, is set to convene a diverse group of global populist-right politicians, US state officials, and influential advisers.
The summit will feature prominent figures from the UK's Reform UK party, including MPs Sarah Pochin and Andrew Rosindell. They will be joined by numerous Reform advisers and backroom staff. Notably, British crypto billionaire Ben Delo, who has previously donated ยฃ4 million to Nigel Farage's party, is also expected to attend, highlighting significant financial backing for the event's agenda.
While the gathering aims to bring together populist-right leaders and their supporters, the expected attendance of educators from Eton College raises further questions about the event's reach and influence. The Arc summit positions itself as a platform for discussing alternative political and social ideologies, drawing parallels to the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos but with a distinct focus on conservative and nationalist viewpoints.
