    One thing he (read: Cummings) understands is that there's no point placating the irreconcilable remoaners and in the process pissing off most leavers. There's no middle ground any more; that time has passed. Time to rub some faces in the dirt, I'm afraid. Or at least try. That said, it ain't happening without a GE interposed between face and dirt. Until it all goes spectacularly wrong, we can at least enjoy all the right people losing their ****.

    Bannon and Cummings may have different visions of a perfect society, but they share a commitment to elite rule and an idea of how to aggressively pursue it.
    Pat Kane: Leading Brexiteers are pining for all of us to embrace a life built on havoc | The National

    Bannon recently claimed to have once been a Leninist but has very clear fascist and possibly Nazi sympathies.

    Thank You Steve Bannon For Showing Us Your True Fascist Colors

    Cummings, despite his intellectual posturings, he may be stupid enough to be a fan of that ultimate Godhead of failed teenage bullies with megalomaniac pretensions, Ayn ‘Medicare’ Rand. He is an extreme Neoliberal and a reminder that the origins of Neoliberal thought lay partly in nazi belief in the purity and goodness of elite power.

    More likely so that he's facing you when he does a U turn.

    I see echoes of 1914 in Boris.
    I saw echoes of 1938 in the MayBot.

    ERG to vote against the withdrawal deal

    So even if Boris were to get the EU to agree to his version of the withdrawal deal without the Northern Ireland backstop, the ERG would still vote it down.

    what a shower of sh*t the Tories are.

    There was a similar "can do" bravado and optimism in 1914. Good to see.
