Javid is a devotee of libertarian writer Ayn Rand
Twice a year he reads the courtroom scene in “The Fountainhead”, where the hero says he’d rather go to jail than submit to the collective will b/c the individual can bend the arc of history to their will.

“What Javid admires in Rand’s novel is the portrait of a steel-willed individual for whom tooth-&-claw capitalism is the best system because it places the fewest restrictions on such individuals. If illegal or unethical methods are required, what of it?”

Radical libertarianism underpins thinking of the Cabinet & as well as Cummings, Koch bros, Mercer & Peter Thiel (whose Palantir runs the NHS Data Store)
They ignore the fact our existence is interwoven with the rest of the natural world in a highly complex interdependent system
