Yockey´s domineering behaviour telling Guy Chesham to leave his wife, in Yockey´s words "to leave the bitch", and to follow him into Bohemia cost him Chesham´s support.

Peter Huxley-Blythe was the only notable member of the organization, who had to suspend his participation in the organization due to being drafted into the Korean War.

The organization would publish a pamphlet entitled, The Proclamation of London.

Some point afterwards there was briefly a new organisation, which went by the same name that was created in it´s inspiration by Christian Bouchet.
