Sigh. Answer to Guardian's headline. Sunak's mentor at Stanford was Prof.Paul Romer, a libertarian megalomaniac who tried to privatise Honduras by turning it into a charter city, Honduran Supreme Court shut it down. Deregulation is key to understanding the Tories REUL Bill which will sunset 4000 EU Laws on 31.12.2023. Ask yourselves why Tories hate protectionism and the rule of law, then you understand what Brexit is really about.

Sunak isn’t Johnson or Truss, but does anyone know who he is – or what he wants for Britain?

After a manic year, the PM has given his party stability. But he’ll need to do more to resist Labour and reassure his panicky MPs, says Henry Hill, deputy editor of ConservativeHome

Brexit=Libertarian exit from democracy. I highly recommend reading Adventure Capitalism by @raycraib The 1st book that examines in detail the libertarian agenda of carving up countries into self governing regions with their own laws beyond Govt reach.

“R/w thinking behind charter cities exploits philanthropy that privately run cities will alleviate poverty. don't be fooled, they are a deregulatory nightmare hatched by libertarian economists to install corporate rule beyond Govt reach, post Brexit UK next https://t.co/2sMAP894De”

Corporation tax on profits arising in freeports can be reduced – although how to calculate just what those profits are is open to widespread abuse'. Reduced health and safety standards are often permitted in freeports. These put workers at risk. REUL Bill!

“Exemption from tariffs gives a tax subsidy to products sold from a freeport IF (and this is critical) they are exported. That means that this benefit goes to other countries, and not into the UK market. Sunak and Truss's Freeports are a Threat to Democracy https://t.co/HF4SRRplhs”

3rd country UK = an emerging economy that is 'capital hungry'
Power of capital markets is fuel on fire consuming public sector, exacerbating inequality. Offshoring wealth to tax havens, companies stealing public money for subsidies, do you see how it works? https://twitter.com/EuropeanPowell/status/1601153810998910978?s=20&t=xhV-VBNvuNtjBCVhR9jcMQ

What do libertarians want? They seek exit & refuge from all social responsibilities and Govt oversight, charter cities have their own private laws, deregulation of 4000 EU Laws via REUL Bill gives carte blanche for corporate hegemony in post Brexit UK.https://twitter.com/EuropeanPowell/status/1558395059279695874?s=20&t=xhV-VBNvuNtjBCVhR9jcMQ

“@raycraib has written the very first book on right wing libertarian charter cities: Adventure Capitalism - A History of Libertarian Exit.' The parallels to post Brexit UK are unmistakable. Buy it, it will blow your mind!”

In 1930 Fred Koch sold crude oil separation techniques to Stalin and Hitler, just because UK is not in a military conflict doesn’t mean it’s not in an economic war with its own population, shifting public money to private hands is economic terrorism. https://twitter.com/EuropeanPowell/status/1600892072063795205?s=20&t=xhV-VBNvuNtjBCVhR9jcMQ

“Warning UK people, fascism requires austerity to solidify its rule. Govt intervention in suppressing strike action and pay rises is in stark contrast to the shameless profiteering of energy companies and PPE heist of public money. One rule for the 1% another for working classes.”

When the msm and opposition parties fail to forensically examine and expose the Tories horrific libertarian plans for post Brexit UK, citizens must educate themselves, internet doesn't give detail, books do.

“Want to know why the UK is in the state it's in? Can't articulate what's happening with Brexit fallout? Buy, these books, also excellent as Xmas presents! The Shock Doctrine by @NaomiAKlein helped me see parallels to Brexit, identical shock therapy tactics used throughout history”
