Authoritarianism is on the rise. The left has long embraced a vicious, intolerant identity politics, and now sections of the right are veering towards an equally illiberal ethnonationalism. We mustn’t give in to this intolerance, says Candice Holdsworth

Too many on the left and right are embracing authoritarianism and racial essentialism.

The EU is the greatest threat to democracy in Europe. Right now it is fining Hungary a million Euros a day because it refuses to let in unvetted migrants. This is technocratic tyranny. Elon Musk is right – Brussels must be dismantled, says Brendan O’Neill

The Brussels oligarchy really is a menace to liberty and sovereignty.

Elon Musk is right about the EU. It is the enemy of democracy. It imposes austerity on member states. It fines countries that refuse to let in unvetted migrants. It will bully you if you reject its treaties. The EU is killing Europe, says Brendan O’Neill

Has the British working class ever been so disenfranchised? Your Party – a self-styled ‘socialist’ movement – cares more about Israel than industry, and crossdressers than the cost of living. How dare they claim to speak for workers, says Lisa McKenzie

Jeremy Corybn and Zarah Sultana’s club for nonbinary loons and anti-Israel cranks has nothing to say to struggling Brits.

Zack Polanski says Britain needs migrants to wipe old people’s bums. The Green Party leader really thinks it’s virtuous to pilfer cheap labour from the Third World to do the nation’s dirty work. How utterly obnoxious, says Patrick West

Why does the left think it’s ‘compassionate’ to leave the nation’s dirty work to poorly paid migrants?

I’m sick of pretending the boycotting of Israel is normal politics. It isn’t – it’s racism, says Brendan O’Neill
