It's kind of obvious what the long game is here - exit international relations and global markets, stop migration, create a plutocratic society inhabited by mostly poor people living in a segregated domestic economy where education and health are only ever offered as charity. Gilead, you say?

If there isn't already some hyper-marxist theory that property (extended to also apply to family) enslaves even the capitalists themselves, Yellowstone provides a perfect illustration of the idea.

Boats coming across the Channel are a humanitarian disaster, but the debate around their impact on immigration is ridiculous. Even if the number went up more it's below 5% of net immigration, and most people arriving are eventually granted asylum anyway. Why does no politician admit that?

I think people should learn about religions as a phenomenon - they have shaped our history and still shape the lives of the majority of the human race so are an important phenomenon. But schools should teach people to follow a religion, and other subjects should not be influenced by them.
