you can criticize speech laws for now. And tbh, not sure to which extent it is true.

There is no switch front democracy to dictatorship, there is a transition.

As they said:

You are commenting on an article which critiques these laws. It's not the first either. So what you're saying is demonstrably nonsense.

So how do you think dictatorships come to be?

I'm sick of all this doomsaying coming from the bench. If somebody thinks the dictatorship is around the corner, then please get on your ass and do something about it! Organize, vote, find your own way. Because the world has zero uses for more oracles, but a lot of use for _involved_ people.

> please get on your ass and do something about it!

I do! I wish more people would.

I don't see Britain heading towards dictatorship. Certainly not under the current Labour government.
