We saw the vast majority of the public willingly embrace lockdown as opposed to question that strategy and ask legitimate questions as to why we did not adopt what Sweden was doing. One of the doses of reality someone has to come to terms with is that we are a hierarchical society and the vast majority of people prefer to be dictated to by a leader and to have their lives controlled by a higher power. We libertarians are a minority and sadly to say, always will be.

Most people also prefer a two party system and will choose between the two main parties. The First Past The Post political system we have is very well suited to keeping us in that situation. Again, there is no appetite beside from a small minority to bring in Proportional Representation for national Government. People want the status quo and do not want to change.

If you have been paying attention to the news on polling day, the media was pushing the Holly Willoughby kidnapping plot hard and really focusing on the man who planned it - as a loner, a hermit, single, male and unattractive and how those characteristics in men make them a threat to women and girls. Something that will be at the heart of a new Labour Government.

The Lotus Eaters were making the point on their livestream very correctly that there were politicians whining about how Ofcom needed to regulate podcasters and how they should fall under Ofcom rules. So even the Lotus Eaters now are considering, okay, how do we get around jurisdictions.

That gets enforced next year, regardless of whether the Tories or Labour won. I honestly would not be surprised if Labour and the Tories just decide that the Internet is too unregulatable and they decide to go full national Intranet for the populous while making the Internet the exclusive realm of the state and business.
