Most interesting thing I've read about UK politics for awhile now, it's nice to see there are Libertarians in the UK, there was a sort of 'official' Libertarian party but they went extinct a long time ago and were clearly dealing with lots of internal politics.
I may actually donate some coins to these guys if I can get myself a passive income.
Did you dig into the stats there ... looks like the 'kids' really get it, the good voluntarist parts ... and the teens and tweens even more so. They understand that the quantitatively provable ways to help the poor and common man is NOT through more government but less. Bleeding heart libertarians, hah.
When the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition moved in 2013 to cap the total annual benefits a household can receive at £26,000, a YouGov survey found that 54% of 16 to 24-year-olds agreed with it against 16% in opposition.
Ipsos MORI's Generation Next survey of 11 to 16-year-olds seems to confirm that the ideas of personal responsibility and individualism are growing in appeal among tomorrow's adults.
Just 4% of more than 2,700 secondary school pupils surveyed said the welfare state made them most proud to be British. The winner was Team GB, the Olympians, at 28%. And only 2% said benefits were the most important focus for government spending, though 11% did prioritise looking after the poor.
