There is a difference between pragmatic conservatives and zealous libertarians like Buchanan - Nancy MacLean,Democracy in Chains
All moderation gone, we are sleepwalking into a new dystopian phase where debate & reason have been strangled by dark money ploughed into Govt #Brexit

We have not learned from the history of libertarian devastation on previously stable socialist democracies like Chile that were dismantled and colonised by the Anglosphere. Decades later disaster/frontier capitalism has advanced into the very heart of western Europe. #BrexitLies

Libertarians will use all manner of subterfuge to gain power and authoritarian control of what they deem their inalienable right to 'property', the very roads they drive on built by labourers are now a red carpet route into local constituencies where charter cities will be built.

Cowering behind charity status, the party within a party pull the strings, anonymous donors throw endless cash to shape Govt policy, r/w think tanks lap it up and reclaim subscriptions as expenses while their partisan ideologies are made real.

Reducing big Govt to empty rituals in HoC serves the tactics of distraction while deregulation is methodically unleashed to ramp up a shareholder/CEO run Govt. The power to rewrite laws on ECHR under the pretext of Mogg's 'evangelical restructured sovereignty' is well under way.

There is a dangerous normalisation of 'lack of scrutiny' going on as 'Brexit Freedom Bills' are rushed through Parliament. Understand that 'freedom' under the Tories is a lie, the reality is unfreedoms for average working families and libertarian freedom to trash citiziens rights

UK is being eviscerated of its rights to protest, of workers rights to a decent wage. It's being force fed under duress an economic assault issued by the most despicable venal, immoral, unethical Tory Govt the UK has ever had the misfortune to suffer.
