The press would most definitely be calling this a dictatorship if it were Venezuela or any other target state of the west.
So far/on its way under Johnson:
- installing of unelected ministers (Zac Goldsmith)
- voter suppression
- boundary changes
- banning protest (strikes & BDS)
- threats to dissenting media (The Canary)
- threats to the supreme court
- court rules British MI5 agents can murder, kidnap and torture
- support from far-right Tommy R, Britain First, KT Hopkins etc
Added to the usual:
- unelected/partially hereditary House of Lords
- FPTP system
- pliant, monopolised media
- journalists imprisoned (Assange)
- unelected head of state
What else?
