#Reform's candidate for the Gorton & Denton by-election is #MattGoodwin
Goodwin has repeatedly praised Viktor Orbán’s model in Hungary. The strongman playbook of capturing institutions, weakening checks and balances, and using culture wars to keep people angry. That’s the kind of politics Reform is importing, and it should deeply worry anyone who cares about democracy.
Goodwin presents himself as sober analyst, normalising ideas that would once have been beyond the pale.
Watch carefully!
