From the very same paragraph in Orwell's essay: "England has got to be true to herself. She is not being true to herself while the refugees who have sought our shores are penned up in concentration camps, and company directors work out subtle schemes to dodge their Excess Profits Tax."
Peroration from Robert Jenrick’s speech at the Roger Scruton conference today:
“In the words of George Orwell, ‘nothing ever stands still. We must add to our heritage, or lose it. We must grow greater or grow less. We must go forward or backward.’ I say, let’s go forward.”

The justice secretary has no good choices – but releasing IPP prisoners should be one. It would end the short term prison crisis & one of the most monumental & cruel injustices of the past half century

Agree, it also doesn't fit conventional / traditional models in terms of us defending it. Despite working in the Internet since 93 I'm coming hard down at serious regulation being the only answer. US gun laws stay in the US. We shouldn't have to accept US social media being used to damage us here.

The concept Nigel Farage is incapable of grasping is human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want. I’ll fight that to my last breath
