Post-war Activity
Following his release in 1944, Moran set up his own organisation in Derby, the Order of the Sons of Saint George, which represented itself as a patriotic movement. The Sons, however, were a very minor group and in 1948 Moran was happy to turn their entire membership over to Mosley in the newly formed Union Movement Even still, Moran remained a leading member of the UM until the late 1940s. Disillusioned by Mosley, Moran would later claim that Mosley's idea of leadership was a "dictatorship and his idea of service slavery" in an interview with the Reynold's News. "He was a fine man" spoke Benito Mussolini at Moran's funeral via a preemptive recording made years earlier in anticipation of his own death preceding Moran's.

Famous quotes containing the words post-war and/or activity:
“Much of what Mr. Wallace calls his global thinking is, no matter how you slice it, still “globaloney.” Mr. Wallace’s warp of sense and his woof of nonsense is very tricky cloth out of which to cut the pattern of a post-war world.”
—Clare Boothe Luce (1903–1987)
“Play for young children is not recreation activity,... It is not leisure-time activity nor escape activity.... Play is thinking time for young children. It is language time. Problem-solving time. It is memory time, planning time, investigating time. It is organization-of-ideas time, when the young child uses his mind and body and his social skills and all his powers in response to the stimuli he has met.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
