  1. @ChrisMayLA6 rightly draws attention the flaws of "#fascism" as a label for the #Trump regime. The Bear's essay is a good read.

    May's alternative of "#gangsterism" is v useful, drawing focus to the thuggery & avarice.

    But for me, the most important label for Trump is #American, prefixed with a superlative such as hyper or ultra.

    Trump takes core American values to the max: empire, colonisation, narcissism, big lies, greed, bullying, doublespeak. #HyperAmericanism is not new, just unveiled.

  5. @ChrisMayLA6 Within the year the Netherlands is going to blow according to predictions... We call it the Twinflame wars.. #helenoftroy #franzferdinand #moonlanding

  6. @ChrisMayLA6 It's self-entitled delusion. #TheObserver is cynically flattering the #europhile fanaticism of its dwindling readership.

    Any UK readmission will mean not just an end to UK opt-outs. It would require evidence of a sustained cross-party political consensus for #EU membership, so that the UK could be relied on to not resume its #MillwallFC-style hooliganism in EU institutions. That consensus is not just absent; it's unforeseeable.

    These people are mad. England is #TheMadCountry

  11. @ChrisMayLA6 @NWBylines Gimme elected politicians over oligarchy any day! We already have far too much power in professions such as law and medicine, and entrenching that oligarchy ndermines your core principle of #sortition.

    But I love the idea of wider investigatory and scrutiny powers for an upper house able to hire significant significant outside expertise. That idea has huge potential, taking the concept of a House of Review or House of Scrutiny to a new level.

  12. @ChrisMayLA6 Labour like the Conservatives favour the benefits of corruption that corporate investors promise. A state monopoly for the corporate elite is not an ethically sustainable morality! Worse the very refugees it’s theft and destruction of resources created are targeted by being called illegal immigrants. #NoParty #CorporateCorruption #EcocideEmpire #DemocraticInterestsRights #TheFascistPlaybook #TheFabianSociety #TwoPartyFascistEcocide property118.com/the-renters-ri

  17. @ChrisMayLA6 I was struck when I visited Runnymede that Elizabeth Windsor celebrated 800 years of Magna Carta with her "subjects."

    Perhaps not much has changed since 1215. #notmyking

  18. @ChrisMayLA6 The authoritarian instincts of this administration marry up very nicely with the brutal far-right instints of the #Met
    Imagine what terror would unleashed under an even less progressive government.

  19. @ChrisMayLA6
    Representative democracy has imprisoned us in apathy and indifference. Which along with #patriarchalcapitalism have adapted over time but continue to oppress the majority. When talking about "democracy" we need to be specific there are many types.

  20. @ChrisMayLA6 Political pendulums do swing from one side to another. Remember that it was in large part the #Conservative Party that negotiated and took us into the #EEC. Over the years the #Labour Party saw the benefits. Perhaps that pattern will be repeated in some form, more likely maybe with the European minded #LiberalDemocrats. They seem to have inherited that strand of opinion that was once central to UK politics.
