The Times reports that The Woodlander Initiative (TWI), led by far‑right activist Simon Birkett, is constructing race‑exclusive settlements in mid‑Wales near Llanafan Fawr. The initiative has already raised approximately £162,000 toward a £1 million goal to acquire land in every UK county for white‑only enclaves. The first “family camps”.
Birkett, linked to groups like Patriotic Alternative, aims to establish communities with separate institutions, schools, and lifestyle — rejecting modern multiculturalism. Local residents and anti‑fascist group Hope Not Hate warn that such schemes may foster extremism and societal division. UK authorities have remained silent, while activists call for close monitoring to prevent escalation.
