	The Milner Group was a key UK deep state group at the turn of the 20th century. It was exposed by Carroll Quigley, who claims that although of great importance, it was particularly difficult to track due to its control of the UK historical record.

The Milner Group, also known as the Roundtable Group,^[1] was a key deep state faction at the turn of the 20th century, effectively constituting the UK deep state for decades^[When?]^{[citation needed]}. It was clearly exposed by Carroll Quigley, who dedicated a chapter of the Anglo-American Establishment to the group, calling it "Milner's Kindergarten". He wrote that although of great importance and influence, it was particularly difficult to track due to its tight control of the UK historical record.

Origins

The group formed around Alfred Milner, a UK colonial administrator, who was appointed British High Commissioner for Southern Africa in 1897. He "organized and developed a talented coterie of Oxford graduates inside his South African administration, men who by 1914 held critical positions of power... [He] appointed, trained and developed his chosen men to drive forward the Secret Elite agenda with conviction."^[2]

World War I

The group played a major role in World War I. In 1916, it organised a coup to oust UK PM Herbert Asquith.^[1]

World War II

By 1939, the group's influence had significantly declined.^[Why?] However, in the last chapter of The Anglo-American Establishment, entitled The Milner Group in World War II, Quigley wrote that the Milner Group "played a considerable role in the Second World War, not scattered throughout the various agencies associated with the great struggle, but concentrated in four or five chief fiefs."^[3]

South Africa/Deep state	“Alfred Milner organized and developed a talented coterie of Oxford graduates inside his South African administration, men who by 1914 held critical positions of power in the City, the Conservative Party, the Civil Service, major newspapers and academia. Carroll Quigley specifically dedicated a chapter of his seminal Anglo-American Establishment to this "Milner's Kindergarten", the men who rose to high office in government, industry and politics. He appointed, trained and developed his chosen men to drive forward the Secret Elite agenda with conviction.”	Jim Macgregor Gerry Docherty	2017
