<br/><br/> "The Secret of the League: The Story of a Social War" by Ernest Bramah is a dystopian novel published in 1907. Written after Labour's electoral gains, it imagines a future where the Labour Party wins overwhelming power in Britain. An upper-class cabal secretly plots to overthrow the democratically elected government through economic sabotage and civil war. George Orwell credited the book with predicting the rise of Fascism while revealing the brutal measures the middle classes might condone when threatened with revolution.
