Yes, crypto assets is another thing the Democrats cede to the libertarian right. Their abstemiousness risks the politicization on factional grounds. Not every crypto holder is a Mises quoting, Ayn Rand reading, tax avoiding weirdo.

I thought that the Conservatives just banned onshore wind turbines regardless of sentiment on the ground.
Yeah, Boris did gut the Conservatives of any moderates over Brexit. Without them, they will have the devil's own job moving centre-ward.
For them it's a catch-22, the current make up of the Conservatives make it a hostile environment for moderates, but they need them to bring the Conservatives to the centre. The right will need to cede power for that to happen.
I would argue that cronyism is a symptom of capitalism. Regulatory capture and buying off politicians is a damn fine return on investment.
This is not to say communism didn't also have it's problem with corruption and bribes.
Without proper oversight, any human run thing is subject to this universal law: humans are lazy and greedy.
I think it's a question of democracy against autocracy. You can either impose wind farms against local objections, or you can take a more difficult route and involve the local communities.

I suspect that will change with a quickness as they rise to prominence.
I wonder what he had to give up in the plea deal.
This is the outcome of Capitalism . Even the new Open Access Operators are no guarantee of sustainable salvation. As Capitalism in a free market will always seek to acquire and merge. Or out compete and destroy competition.
That's the trouble with public service broadcasters, they are not immune from political interference.
Jeremy Corbyn got it right, rather than make the controller a political position make them accountable to a independent body. This should go some way to repairing the BBC's bias problem.
It won't happen though they are too good a propaganda outfit. Who for? The establishment. Whichever party is in power. So, you want to change the BBC? You need to change government.
And for those that advocate abolition, at least with the current system, you have one lever of power. Good luck in influencing Rupert Murdoch to sway his reporting.
For personal things, computer, phones, etc. Big corpos cover this by a EULA. EULAs also covers forums controlled by the companies. For public places like websites, you can control search engines by using a robot.txt file.
Does this also apply to exit polls?
