  11. Routes to autocracy: 1. Refuse flagship news progs interviews in elections 2. Ban journalists from No10 briefings 3. Set up 'People's PMQs' & answer curated questions 4. Denounce criticism as 'hysterical' 5. Use a cat to win over people 6. Don't release any reports that damn you

    Just a few pages from finishing by and I have to admit this book got me off guard. It truly delivers its promise of telling the various interactions of guns without judgement. Almost totally unbiased. Amazing! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    If you had told me ten years ago that No 10 would be banning national journalists from briefings, I'd have laughed. But here we are. The slippery slope.

    "The UK will be leaving the single market and the customs union at the end of this year and stakeholders should prepare for that reality." Yup. We are all 'stakeholders' according to the British government. And the steak will probably be chlorinated chicken breast.

    The Prime Minister has said, in his propaganda-lite People's PMQs, that the "scourge" of street sleeping in England was "lower than any time in the last eight years". This is a lie. And anyone who takes a walk on our city streets knows this.

    She talks about 'counter-terrorist offenders' where she means 'terrorists'. I mean... a counter-terrorist offender is, arguably, a police officer who shoots an innocent civilian instead of a terrorist. I doubt she means them.

    Fake suicide vests lead to police shootings, that lead to some representing the killed suspect as a martyr, that lead to accusations of police shooting Muslims. I'm not saying lethal force was not justified. I'm saying their deaths were foreseen, and so outrage manufactured.
