Reform - Dodgy.
Social Market Foundation [ Jury still out but needs to be treated with a degree of suspicion.]
Policy Exchange [With some Cameronite input. Is this a positive?]
New Economics Foundation [ Jury is still out. Treat with caution]
Institute for Public Policy Research [One of the worst!]
Fabian Society [The ultimate wolf in sheeps' clothing]
Foreign Policy Centre ['Progressive' in the negative meaning of the word]
Centre Forum [Liberal in a modern sense]
Centre for European Reform [Naively believes the EU is reformable]
Joseph Rowntree Foundation. [Can talk sense on occasions but generally gravitates towards the liberal left.]
