British TOTALITARIANS are in lockstep with other like-minded around the world. The sun never sets on their dystopian empire.

“ U.K. officials do not like dissent. They do not like free speech. And they certainly do not like it when ordinary citizens criticize the government. @

The British have never had that. At best a couple of decades around WWII, but in general the Brit’s have always lived under tyranny, a nobility serving a monarch, no right to vote until after WWI, and in ac few decades fell into socialism. And now the socialists have flooded the nation with the most violent sect on the planet and they back then with anarcho-tyranny.

Britain has only ever had the smallest taste of freedom.

It is so sad what is happening in Europe, parts of which I have affection for and long-standing connections to. It is truly watching the death of a civilization.

Anyway, I recently heard on an interview the statistic that Russia had detained 400 people for writing “bad” stuff on the internet one year.

The same year, over 3000 people were detained for the same in the UK.

"We always knew the Brits didn’t have free speech, but now we’re learning it even harder."

This goes back to the lengthy British monarchy. You couldn't speak ill of the King, or Queen, couldn't even talk about him dying while he was still alive, without being labeled a traitor and executed. Britain has brought back its medieval laws to punish the people for speaking the truth.
