UK Election- The people and the political class are at one: neither wants to face the future' | Energy and Peak Oil News

Paul Gray from Energy Bulletin. Some sensible reflectio on the UK election.

The funny thing is, Paul Gray is/has been a conservative, but apparently "during the 1990s, Gray revised his views to question free trade, the laissez-faire market system and the Enlightenment project more generally. He is now better known for his criticism of the excesses of neoliberal ideology, and has published several books on the subject..."


These type of people, former conservatives, are my favourite writers these days. The critical social thought that comes out of them is fascinating bcos it actually harbours hope that believers might yet see the light.
