  Anglophobia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anglophobia is a fear or hatred of England (and in some instances the whole of the United Kingdom), its inhabitants or anything of its origin.
By 1927 Anglophobia was sufficiently prevalent for William Hale Thompson to use fears of British propaganda in school textbooks to win Chicago's mayoral race and to promise that I will not rest until I have purged the entire city of the poison that is being injected into the heart of American youth to eulogize England.
After 1945 anglophobia generally ceased to be a major public issue in the United States given cooperation in World War II and the fact that the Soviet Union was clearly the major rival of the USA.

 John Moser, The Decline of American Anglophobia
The debate over Versailles unleashed latent forces of anglophobia that set the stage for recurrent battles in the 1920s and 1930s, and frequently populists and western progressives were in the forefront.
Unlike ethnic anglophobia, populist anglophobia remained alive and well in 1945; nor was there any reform that the British government could enact, or colony to abandon, that could eliminate it.
The disappearance of anglophobia from American populism was, in short, the final element necessary to the conclusion of a truly friendly relationship between Great Britain and the United States.

It is too reductive since in fact the period covered extends to the Second World War and even a little beyond, with references to the Marshall Plan and the creation of NATO in the last chapter.
As reportedly expressed by a Senator, American Anglophobia was due to “the memory of the redcoats.” [190] Less cryptically, it rests on the idea that the nation that freed itself from British Imperialism should never do anything to bolster the British Empire.
Now, the implicit lesson of his conclusion goes much further than the initial ambit of his task as the chronicler of “American Anglophobia between the World Wars”: the book offers in fact an interpretation of the Americans’ extraordinarily complex—or extraordinarily oversimplified—vision of the world and their own role in it.

 The Reviewer: Pick and Choose - October 3, 1999
In 1918 Anglophobia, a permanent fixture of the 19th-century American cultural landscape, made a significant reappearance in American political discourse.
Attempting to root out the causes and consequences of this resurgent distrust of "perfidious Albion", this text sets out to show that 20th-century American Anglophobia went beyond the two factors which are usually cited by way of explanation: isolationist tendencies and the Anglophobia of recent immigrants to the USA.
The author argues that an Anglophobia ran far deeper through American culture, steeped in the American national mythology, which continued to cast the British monarchy and Empire as antithetical to the ideals of liberty and equality.

 William Johnson
His 1992 book, Anglophobie: Made in Québec, argued that French Quebec's literary and intellectual traditions were characterized by anglophobia, an ingrained fear and mistrust of English-speaking people, which he says still lies at the root of the sovereignty movement.
It doesn't work that way." Johnson is widely credited with coining the term "lamb lobby," used to describe AQ patsies who have caved in time and again to either the separatist Parti Québécois or the quasi-separatist Quebec Liberals.
Johnson has set out six principles for AQ to defend, including the right to self-determination for all people (read: support for partition) and zero-tolerance for violations of human rights (as an example, he cites Quebec's current education-access rules).

Harlen Makemson's paper, "Anglophobia as Art: Free Trade and Protection in Grover Cleveland Political Cartoons," has been accepted for presentation at the 19th Century Press, the Civil War and Free Expression Symposium in Chattanooga, Tenn., Nov. 1-2.
Makemson said previous research has left the impression that the defining characteristic of cartooning against Grover Cleveland in the 1884 campaign was a relentless focus on Cleveland's illegitimate child scandal.
I'm particularly interested in the Gilded Age because many of the issues of the period - immigration, free trade, concern over an erosion of morals, the perceived damaging influence of visual media - still resonate today."

Although Anglophobia can exist without antisemitic overtones, it is often used as an introductory cover more later revelations about Jewish influence.
A US corollary is that Jewish banking families created the Federal Reserve system to extend Jewish/British control over the US economy.

On this basis, the 18,272 British Isles migrants who arrived in 2003-4 are enriching Australia by $150,744,000 every year (to which an allowance for inflation since 2000 should be added).
The problem for Australia is that about 30% of British migrants who come here with the intention of enriching Australia for the rest of their lives end up returning to their original homeland - as a result, largely, of Anglophobia.
It is costing Australia something like an extra 45 million dollars forfeited every year.
