The Great British Betrayal: The Rise of Britain's Rentier Regime
…Under the leadership of both the Conservative Party and New Labour, Britain has transitioned from a traditional industrial and manufacturing powerhouse to a highly financialised rentier economy. The effects have been profound. The average Briton is considerably worse off and entire regions have been left behind at the same time London has become a booming centre of international finance. The UK has been denationalised by decades of mass-immigration and cultural leftism, and has become the prime example of “anarcho-tyranny”, where the state punishes minor offences and acts of dissent against the liberal consensus with extreme force, while serious crime runs out of control in major cities…
Privatisation, deregulation and financialisation has led to Britain becoming, in the words of the Financial Times, a “rentier’s paradise”.
All the while, this transformation and the huge wealth transfer it brought has been subsidised by the British public, most of whom have seen declining or stagnant living standards for decades.
The UK is a rentier regime — all policy since the 1980s can be understood as favouring rentiers, even (and often) at the expense of the national interest.
Deregulation has also allowed the UK to become a global centre for financial fraud.
A 2016 report estimated that financial fraud costs the UK £193bn per year — more than the entire budget of the National Health Service. Margaret Hodge, the former head of the UK’s Public Accounts Committee, named Britain as “the country of choice for every kleptocrat, crook and despot in the world”.
In one high profile case that demonstrated this role London now serves, the city was at the centre of a massive Russian money-laundering scheme where Russian insiders laundered as much as $80 billion in dirty money, passing it through fictitious companies registered in London.
yes, I think the election was institutionally rigged so that Front Nationale wouldn't win the 2nd round
by suppressing the democratic choice of the people, (they) leave the populace no real choice but to rebel
look at the UK, same policies as Conservatives
AfD legally suppressed in Germany
>(They) want the people in open rebellion
not so sure about that, (they) want people asleep again
>makes it easier to remove them
again not so sure about that
>AfD legally suppressed in Germany
>It's all theater.
>AfD is controlled opposition. It's all a play.
Agreed.
But it is all going to lead to rebellion in successive EU countries, imo.
