Wikidedia: «Sidelined in mainstream politics, Jerrold became editor of The English Review, which he ran from 1931 to 1935, advocating «real Toryism as opposed to the plutocratic Conservatism represented by the official party» under the relatively liberal leadership of Stanley Baldwin. He was a romantic anti-capitalist and a devout Roman Catholic who was strongly attracted to the Fascism of Mussolini’s Italy and the Catholic Nationalism of General Francisco Franco. In addition, he was an Imperialist, opposed to Britain’s policy in India (which by this time had recognised the inevitability of self-rule), and in favour of a greatly strengthened executive government at home, if not outright dictatorship. Jerrold was, if not himself a fascist, undeniably sympathetic to fascism.»
