We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. - a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR [Russ.,= self-publishing house]

Samizdata quote of the day – the Welsh parliament has banned dissent on immigration

Martin’s views may not be everyone’s cup of tea. Critics have accused him of echoing Enoch Powell and of gesturing towards the ‘great replacement’ conspiracy theory, which has it that white Westerners are being deliberately and systematically ‘replaced’ by malign elites. Others say the projections are simply unrealistic. Whether these criticisms are fair or not, the Senedd’s reaction should make us very worried.

For one thing, this is a case of blatant censorship. Martin was not shouting or using abusive language. He was guilty of nothing more than expressing, in ordinary English, concerns that many electors in Penarth clearly share, even if the liberal establishment does not. If it is now the position of the Senedd that the only views that should be expressed are those that don’t offend the Blob, the Senedd might as well not exist.
