    So many Brexiteers despise EU’s regulations. They were not even hiding it when they released a book stating they will make London the “Singapore on Thames”. They tried to implement a libertarian economics under Liz Truss but it proved to be unpopular.

    There are interest groups in the EU who are pushing for more digital surveillance, but they kept losing (for now). With the UK no longer in the EU, such interest groups find it easier to impose their desire in the UK because the country is no longer subject to EU laws and regulations.

      Brexiteers were fooled into supporting their own demise, by and for the billionnaire oligarchs.

      The proletariat, to which all non-millionnaire Britons belong, including Brexiteers (be they farmers, fishers, retirees, or such), must realise that it has been fooled all this time along by the oligarchs: all who oppose repression are their allies in bringing down the elite.

      Not only impopular, let’s not forget that people are still suffering from the economic crash that the mini-budget that Truss/Kwarteng presented.
