If I read Lewis Goodall correctly, the consequences of this targeting of the UK by those at the CPAC are clear. As Goodall notes, she was there to promote claims about “creeping Islamism” whilst calling for a “Trump-style revolution” in Britain. Second, transparency in broader political funding will become critical. The Britain of MAGA's imagination is not my Britain- not the one I live in and report on and walk through every day. The question, then, is whether we are ready because, like it or not, Britain is becoming one of the key arenas in the emerging struggle against a new form of fascism.
