The Contradictions of Brexit: Control vs. Sell-off
This chapter explores the contradiction between the desire for control expressed by Brexit voters and the sell-off of national assets to foreign powers. It discusses the ideological focus on libertarianism and attracting foreign investment, and examines the disintegration of companies like Airbnb and Uber when faced with economic reality. The chapter also delves into the financial interests of individuals promoting an outreach strategy to developing economies, combining a bleak view of Britain with a techno oligarchy.
