@lisanandy Asset stripping, land grabbing, sell-off of public land to private investors at bargain basement prices will repeat across all Sunak's freeports and their surrounding 75km investment zones, quietly picked up by Hunt after Sunak dropped them. #Brexit
@lisanandy Reminder that Micahel Gove is awarding millions of pounds of Govt money to the devolved governments to kickstart Sunak's freeports where deregulation will usher in a fever of illicit corporate activity, and the losers will be local people as minimum wage will no longer exist.
@lisanandy Shanker Singham, 'the brains behind Brexit' is a Governance consultant specializing in deregulatory frameworks and privatisation, he is a threat to democracy and is a key shadow operator with transatlantic links to what Truss termed the network of liberty
@lisanandy Peter Thiel 'I no longer believe freedom and democracy are compatible'
To ensure the social contract is dismantled, libertarians and anarcho-capitalists have since post WWII developed a political/economic philosophy opposed to egalitarian economics, post-Brexit UK embraces this.
@lisanandy Everything negative happening now in the UK is linked to Brexit, corruption, confusion, division, defunding of local councils, freeports, investment zones, collapse of public services, centre-left shift to centre-right all precipitated by financial elites.
@lisanandy Anarcho-capitalism was a fringe political philosophy coined by Murray Rothbard in the 1950's, ignored by many but seized upon by right-wing economists who fomented its core beliefs in the abolition of egalitarian economics and democracy itself. Here we are
@lisanandy The post-Brexit reconfiguration of the UKs entire social, political and financial infrastructure is a colossal undertaking, a transition period of 50 years is already causing total disorder and chaos, a surplus of profiteering during crisis times, UK is desperate & capital hungry
@lisanandy The outcome is a patchwork of mini-sovereign competing states with extraterritorial laws and powers handed over to corporations, foreign and domestic. The losers will be average working people, Singham stated 'we are looking at laws as services that companies demand' #Brexit
@lisanandy How does all this work? The investor classes malign influence in shaping Govt policy via r/w thinktanks, APPGs, corporate donations and hijacking of social media for propaganda, harvesting of public data files. Local councils bankrupted/reformed into CCAs. medium.com/@cormack.lawso…

How much of a coward do you have to be to ignore urgent pressing issues like the CoL crisis choosing instead to focus on rewarding cronies and sychophants for 13 years of Tory misrule?
Rishi Sunak reportedly set to accept Boris Johnson’s honours list theguardian.com/politics/2023/…
The moment Sunak awakes and opens his eyes, its wrong, getting dressed is wrong, taking jets and helicopters to appointments is wrong, not investigating billions of tax payers money lost to Covid fraud is wrong, being elected by Tory members and not the public is wrong. #GTTONow
Sunak is an oligarch, he studied at Stanford, his mentor was Prof.Paul Romer, a libertarian advocate of charter cities, these monsters want to escape democracy and install private corporate governance in enclaves beyond big Govt reach, to do this you need money and power. #Brexit
'Brexit gives us a timeframe. Societies can disintegrate in less than a decade. It also helps teach you what social disintegration is. Brexit tore Britain apart'.
The UK has descended into mania. @umairh Great articles eand.co/why-america-an…
'Our warnings were not — let me emphasize — political. They were predictions about what was to unfold, in almost deterministic terms'. Criticism of Brexit wasn’t allowed. We critics were effectively blacklisted. An omertà developed, a code of silence. eand.co/can-brexit-bri…
'What kind of future is there for Britain’s social contract? You see, a much poorer country can’t afford to have the generous and expansive social contract a pre-Brexit Britain did. That’s why the NHS is dying. It’s why waterways are full of sewage'.
Section 114 notices are being issued to local councils across 🏴
This is about engineered insolvency of councils transforming them into CCAs, exploitative emblems of anarcho-capitalist hegemony.
Firesales of assets, council by council, the big sell-off. theguardian.com/society/2023/j…
Michael Gove, Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities has the power to pass secondary legislation, a backdoor means of passing laws to amend Primary Acts of Parliament without proper scrutiny, to create the CCAs. medium.com/@cormack.lawso…
“In the new Gilded Age of fantastically concentrated wealth, billionaires again dominated the electoral system.”
They won the courts, they won their war on the social contract, this is why everything is fucked by the right. theguardian.com/books/2023/jun…
Only solution to this mess lies in a new social contract. For +50 years, the right eroded public trust in politicians, divided the public with weaponised hate, why? To distract from their anarcho-capitalist agenda causing the working classes to vote against their own interests
When capital accumulation is under threat from regulation, its financiers get pissed, they sought out ways to undo the social contract so wealth could be concentrated in their hands, not the public. Both the right and left waged war on egalitarian economics, look at the mess now.
The Department for Health and Social Care is so unrepentant about information transparency that it would rather put itself in contempt of court than hand over the documents. opendemocracy.net/en/information…
BREAKING: Ministers are to launch legal action against the official Covid public inquiry in a last-ditch attempt to avoid handing over Boris Johnson’s unredacted WhatsApps.
Sunak promised 'Integrity, professionalism and accountability' as PM while his backers warned a Boris Johnson comeback would be a “guaranteed disaster”.
The UK is in serious shit.
Maverick Edwards of Liberty University describes anarcho-capitalism as a political, social, and economic theory that places markets as the central "governing body" and where government no longer "grants" rights to its citizenry. theguardian.com/money/2023/jun…
Anarcho-capitalism is anti-statist/Governance, libertarian. Its economic theory seeks to abolish centralized states in favor of stateless societies with systems of private property enforced by private agencies, free markets and self-ownership.
Post Brexit UK will make this flesh.
'Taking back control' has never been in the publics interest, look at the plethora of laws currently being deregulated/abolished since leaving the EU, they span, protest rights, workers rights, food safety, environmental protections, voter suppression, land grabbing...
