Please explain the ‘neo-fascist ideology’ that’s taking hold, with some examples if possible.
Seriously?
The entire Brexit catastrophe has been cooked up by the extreme right. 20 years ago very few ordinary people in the UK gave a stuff about the EU or our relationship with it, but were just getting on with enjoying the manifold benefits that flowed from our membership of it.
In the last 20 years the Overton window has shifted progressively further and further to the right, driven by the neoliberal agenda of the popular press and news media. The internet has provided a fertile environment for the activities of the alt-right and organisations such as Breitbart, whose agenda trickles down into the views you hear from more visible commentators like Farage or Hopkins. Social media facilitates the massive proliferation of a range of right wing hatefulness that has both driven and been driven by the Brexit project.
Cue EDL, Yaxley-Lennon, hate crime, vans ramming into groups outside mosques, people being told to fuck off back to Poland, intimidation of MPs who don't toe the line, chants of 'Nazi scum', threats of civil unrest if 'we don't get the Brexit we were promised'.
A hard no deal brexit will make the country vulnerable. The pound will tank, food and other essentials will rise hugely in price and may not be readily available, services will be disrupted, infrastructure will struggle, the government will fall, people will be scared and the stage will be set for a new, charismatic political movement or leader to emerge, promising a simple solution to a complex set of problems.
Some people want this.
