British Future is a UK-based thinktank studying integration, identity, migration and opportunity. It claims to be non-partisan. Its publications include "This Sceptred Isle", "Team GB: How 2012 Should Boost Britain" and "Generation 2012: Optimism Despite Obstacles".

It ran a campaign[1] for shops to close,[2] and sporting events[3] not to be played on Remembrance Sunday 2014, ninety-six years after the ending of World War I.

Its director is Sunder Katwala, a prominent left-wing activist and former director of the Fabian Society, a think tank that wishes to implement socialist government of Britain via non-revolutionary means . He is regularly cited[4] as an influential political thinker. British Future works closely with other thinktanks,[5] including Demos.
