People who want government reflecting the principles of a free society need to join and stay in the Conservative Party.

That isn’t very popular. An old saying is, “In democracies, electorates get the government they deserve.” 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’ll be doing what I can in public life and private business but the state has power over us all and there’s only one way to steer and diminish it.

Again, I won’t lie to you.

I was with you on nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx ‘s podcast until you said join the conservative party ;-) I feel you need to justify that somewhat more. From what I have read of Herbert that you spoke of, it seems even the Conservatives are still a long way from his writings (whom I presume you concur with).

Please see my Substack.

I’m not on a mission to persuade you or anyone else. I’ve made my case. People can take it or leave it.

By “one way to steer it” I presume you mean defund it by not using their money?
