The Libertarian Press is the UK’s leading on-line publication for the country’s estimated 10 million people who are libertarians or libertarian-leaning in their values. Libertarianism is the belief that all individuals have the right to exercise exclusive jurisdiction over their own lives, and to live in whatever manner they choose, so long as they do not interfere with the equal right of others t
o live in whatever manner they in turn choose. Libertarians defend each person's right to life, liberty, and property by maximizing individual rights and minimizing the role of the state, by promoting as much liberty as possible with as little government as necessary. Libertarians favour free markets, individual liberty and civil societies, and oppose government action to promote either equality or order.

A new documentary, Climate: The Movie, by the maverick filmmaker Martin Durkin, is becoming a phenomenon, though it’s received almost no publicity in the mainstream media. It rejects the idea that we’re in the midst of a ‘climate emergency’, so that’s hardly surprising. But it has already ...

TORY BRITAIN INCENTIVISING US: NOT!
"High-earning parents are better off only working four days a week as bizarre tax rules mean it no longer pays to work... One of the biggest distortions in the tax system occurs once a parent earns more than £100,000.
At this point they lose their entitlement to free childcare, worth potentially £14,500 a year for someone with two children.
This creates a perverse incentive for parents earning £99,000 to turn down a pay rise so they can hold on to the government benefit. Workers are also incentivised to keep their income under £100,000 so they can avoid paying 60pc tax. Once someone’s salary hits £100,000 they lose the personal allowance at a rate of £1 for every £2 until it disappears at £125,140."

Just watched Ridley Scott's Napoleon: I think he gets the Corsican-Italian 'Buonaparte' about right 😆and I commend it to all as 'about as good a historical film as you get', visually stunning and psychologically accurate; above all it it presents Napoleon for what I think he was; the Napoleon-idolisers rate him far too highly!

with the Sunday Times exposing further the shocking treatment of the subpostmasters by the Post office with endless forms and bureaucracy used to block justice and compensation, when will politicians and officials get that when an organisation has ruined your life, you will never, ever trust it to treat you properly: the Post Office will NEVER deliver justice to these people so leaving it up to them GUARANTEES that justice will never be done... our politicians are morons and the Post Office sheds crocodile tears!

Please write to your MP as follows:
Why are none of the people - from the Post Office leadership, Post office Counters Ltd, Fujitsu, Horizon - responsible for the scandal in jail?
Surely they committed perjury and /or are responsible for collusion, conspiracy and miscarriage of justice - or are these not crimes when committed by the Post office and its suppliers?
Why are so many of the sub post masters who are the victims still without compensation, redress and justice?
Does the scandal demonstrate that the little people are always the victims and the big battalions, the elite, the wealthy always get away with it?
Fyi, I have no personal interest in this, I am just appalled by this horrific miscarriage of justice as recently dramatised on ITV

London's housing crisis can be addressed but only by Libertarians who think flexibly
An opportunity to meet London's Housing Crisis says London Libertarian Candidate
"The impending London commercial property crash is a major opportunity to relieve London's current housing crisis" says Tony Brown, the LPUK candidate for Mayor of London.
"Meta has chosen to pay a £149million break fee for its Regent's Park Office whilst HSBC is exiting its iconic place in Canary Wharf for smaller, less expensive premises. These are examples of falling occupancy rates which are less than half pre-covid levels. It means values are likely to fall by up to 40% with massive effects on London's property market and prosperity", says the LPUK candidate but he adds that "handled properly and imaginatively, there could be an upside for London's Housing crisis."
Then he laid down a challenge for the current incumbent. "I call upon The Mayor and the government to facilitate office to housing conversion by relaxing planning rules, speeding up conversion permissions and creating a presumption in favour of the switch with permission granted automatically unless there is a really significant downside".
Tony also sees it as an opportunity to address the chronic shortage of parking in London. Having lived and worked in the European Parliament for ten years, he wants to emulate the excellent system of underground garages and car parking found all over Brussels. He would therefore encourage existing underground garages to be kept for the new residents' use and for underground parking to be added as part of the conversion."
"Unlike the economically illiterate Sadiq Khan or the green fellow-travelling Tories, I am literally the only candidate offering a practical programme to maintain Londoners' quality of life and freedom of choice, and to address the massively damaging chronic shortage of housing people can afford."
