1/ Interesting to see how the libertarians and fascists are united in hatred of masks and lockdowns. The libertarians have a sociopathic lack of care for other people. The fascists hate these measures because they can only understand them in terms of authoritarian domination.
2/ And that's part of why the libertarians and fascists both supported Brexit, because neither group can understand or appreciate working together for the common good. Both groups experience unselfish cooperation as humiliating oppression.
3/ Democracy only works when individuals and groups cooperate to maintain it. That's an ethos which libertarians and fascists loathe and despise, and it's why they are now united in an international kleptofascist movement that is attacking democracy.
4/ The libertarians and fascists are now posing as liberation movements aiming to free their adherents from the oppression of liberal democracy's rules and regulations. Both can only achieve their goals through the destruction of democracy. #Kleptofascism

Please retweet if you want Labour LibDems and Greens to form a Progressive Alliance to beat the Tories, introduce PR, and radically reform our battered democracy.

#FBPA Follow Back #ProgressiveAlliance
A Progressive Alliance is necessary because what we are facing is not politics as usual. We have the most corrupt government in living memory, and a Tory elite intent on eroding democracy and human rights.
The Tory Brexiters have portrayed themselves as rebels. But when the rich and powerful rebel, they are rebelling against the rest of us. They are rebelling against the democracy, laws and political norms which curb their power.

1/ Here's a modest little project for 2022 - a global campaign to eradicate tax havens.

#PATH - People Against Tax Havens.

If you like the idea please retweet and spread the news any way you can, and put #PATH in your name or profile Let's get this moving!
2/ Rees-Mogg's father co-authored "The Sovereign Individual" which forecast that the super-rich would free themselves from national taxation, and ultimately seize control of nation states. Tax havens are key weapons in this kleptocratic war of destruction against democracy.
3/ The cost of failure to eradicate tax havens is crime, corruption, lower living standards, higher taxes, crumbling government services, environmental destruction and growing dissatisfaction with democracy.

1/ Starmer hints that Labour will step back in Lib Dem target seats

This is a positive move. But the problem will be to get seat-specific tactical voting guidance to voters who may tend to vote on national lines.

2/ In 1997 Blair and Ashdown agreed a list of key seats where Labour and LibDems should stand back. Tactical voting guidance for these seats was published in the Mirror. How can this be replicated in the present day media environment?
3/ There is also a risk that an informal opposition electoral pact will be denounced as an attempt by the political elite to stich up the election. That's one reason why we must make the campaign for a Progressive Alliance as large and as loud as possible. #FBPA

In plain sight, the Tory elite is rigging the system to stay in power

Weakening the courts, limiting protest, hobbling the elections regulator. If another country did this, what would we call it?

Defend Democracy - #FBPA Follow Back Progressive Alliance theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
The Tories were once a mass-membership party representing the middle class and ordinary British businesses who needed democracy. Now the Tory elite serve only themselves and their super-rich paymasters many of whom belong to the global and largely offshore elite.
The Tory elite will at times pay lip-service to the needs of ordinary people. But that is only to retain power. Their real interest is increase their own wealth and power while pleasing their kleptocratic patrons.

1/ In his resignation letter Lord Frost expressed his wish that the UK would become a “lightly regulated, low-tax” country. In other words like Daniel Hannan and the ERG cabal Frost wants the UK to become a deregulated Brexit tax haven for the rich.
theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/d…
2/ Frost's remark is a rare glimpse into the Tory Brexiters' real motivations, which they cynically hid from voters. They want a deregulated economy with taxes far too low to maintain the NHS or welfare - a brutal tax haven, a libertarian's wet dream.
3/ The fact that Steve Baker could simply boot Nadine Dorries off the 100-strong Clean Global Brexit WhatsApp group shows that they are very confident in their power. They are libertarian extremists who want a deregulated Brexit tax haven for the rich.

A tax haven UK could never become another Singapore, because it is too big for the influx of tax-dodging money to provide good public services from low taxes. Instead it would become an archipelago of islands of obscene wealth set amidst a sea of public squalor.
