Douglas Carswell was a member of the British Parliament for 12 years. He also co-founded Vote Leave the Official campaign that won the 2016 Brexit vote in Britain. The author of five books, Douglas has written widely about bank reform and monetary policy, as well as publishing a libertarian history of human progress.
In this episode, Douglas and I think out loud about his plan to save Britain, why advocating for remigration is a necessary step to restore the country's identity, why the United Kingdom needs to undo Tony Blair's legislative legacy, why politicians, slogans are empty and the country needs detailed plans to fix its issues, why the US' poorest state, Mississippi, is richer than the United Kingdom, the United Kingdom should re-evaluate its global alliances and focus on the anglosphere, how the country evolved into a nanny state, how personal responsibility and gratitude foster the conditions for a free society, what the UK does better than the US and vice versa, and how human nature impacts politics and culture and much, much more.
In the exclusive Substack Q&A, we also discuss Douglas's views on on UK politics, digital freedom, and the future of the political establishment.
