I'd have loved to have been there and run a quick poll about how they got to the meeting. Get any trains or buses? Either paid for or subsidised by taxation AND regulated in terms of safety so that they don't break down or catch fire (I mean I'm assuming there's some sort of train equivalent of an MOT?)

Did they drive? On public roads that are maintained with the public purse? In cars that again, are regulated to ensure roadworthiness and we don't end up with the sort of Youtube compilations of accidents abroad? In fact, when driving to the event, did you obey the highway code?

I don't think there's any political persuasion that makes me laugh as much as Libertarians, it's an absolute teenage philosophy that you come up with after your first fast food/retail payslip gets £20 deducted, and it breaks down almost immediately after stepping outside your front door and engaging with existence.

Of course a lot of these fine lads do seem like they have quite a... 'detached' place in society so maybe don't reap many of the benefits that going outside can bring. I'm not sure if they posed for this photo or if it was taken by an unfortunate woman who entered the wrong hall and had to scarper before she got m'lady'd to death...
 
Are you telling me that back in the 90s, Stewart Lee was owned by China too?

Saw this one on the internets awhile back...

Libertarians are house cats: they are convinced of their fierce independence while utterly dependent on a system they don't appreciate or understand
