Don't Think About It

The Last Bastion of Liberalism? ft. Cole Stangler

Fri, 05 Mar 2021 12:35:08 GMT

We sat down with Paris-based journalist Cole Stangler to discuss the right-wing turn of the Macron government.

We focus on Article 24 of the security law, the Separatism law, the Islamo-leftism enquiry and the political landscape in advance of the 2022 election.

At the end we have a brief chat about the political legitimacy of abstentionism.

Toby and I talk about the proposed security law that's being introduced in France, what it means for press freedom and what it says about the state of modern liberalism.

We also talk about our own experiences of French police when we went to Biarritz during the G7 last year.
