10. Sorry, but nonsense. As MV has pointed out this is far from
socialism.

I did not vote New Labour at the last 2 elections either. They are an authoritarian centre right party much like Thatcher but, to be honest, with less balls.

The Tories introduced horific authoritarian legislation throughout their time and have cheerleaded new Labour to do the same since.

A particular authoritarian strand of socialism spawned from the soviet union was authoritarian.

and i would look at all the right wing juntas of south america, africa and parts of europe and the reactionary conservative religious regimes of the middle and far east before getting too sure of your right wing position of freedom.

Power is what corrupts and power seeks more power. I'm a social democract and despise that process.

and btw. Capitalism does not equal freedom. far from it as we all know
