LBC listener Thomas poses the Cross Question panellists: Is there a place for Trumpism in the UK? This comes after Liz Truss headed a London CPAC event, which saw many of the talks from the day being
It’s interesting to see how much of this discourse is centered around imported ideologies. Do you think "Trumpism" can even be translated into the UK political system effectively, or is it too tied to the specific nature of American politics to actually work here?
No, no you don’t want that here. Look at what’s happening in the USA now with millions losing their healthcare, millions can’t afford to eat, millions are homeless and Trump is getting richer and hard working Americans are getting poorer. I’m an American and thank the gods I live here. I see what happening to my family and friends who voted for this dictator. You vote for this garbage, you’re voting for a dictatorship. All Russia’s attempt to destabilise democracy. Open your eyes!!

Thanks goodness Chris Webb was there to speak some common sense.
