John Gray is generally a very interesting writer, no matter that this is in a shoddy progressive rag.

David Cameron and the great sell-out
Why the humiliation of the former prime minister is a fitting end to an era of politics that turned the state into a business.
After the EU Commission posted on its social media channels an image accompanying its campaign hashtag #NextGenerationEU a social media explosion occured. Now the EU is trying to walk back the post.
Article translation: A post from the European Commission caused a veritable shit storm on social media. Under the hashtags #NextGenerationEU, the next long-term budget of the EU of 1.8 trillion euros was advertised, which should serve to build a post-Covid-19 Europe.
Users demand exit from the EU
"Together, we can shape the world we want to live in." But apparently there are differences between the EU and the citizens regarding the world to be designed. Because many users commented critically why there are no “autochthonous” Europeans in the picture - that is, what some of the users still think they are. The calls for leaving the EU are also getting louder and louder in the comment columns, DEXIT, IREXIT, ILATEXIT, GREXIT and ROEXIT are celebrating happy beginnings.
No more propaganda

It's undeniable that UKIP was intentionally promoted by the BBC and others from 2009 on, to ward off what they saw as the bigger 'extremist' threat of the BNP. Farage himself took credit for it and if rumours are true, actually negotiated it to raise UKIP's polling.

BBC presenter Samira Ahmed has been embroiled in an impartiality row after admitting she is 'haunted' by a fear the corporation's coverage boosted Nigel Farage and Ukip.
Look at the utter poison of this Oxford University conference today focusing on "dismantling whiteness" and concluding that white or Christian identity doesn't exist.

An appropriate response to all mainstream politicians, particularly Labour.

"Only a bias that is friendly to the evils of this age, only a prepossession in favour of our materialistic, mechanical, unscrupulous and supinely irresponsible civilisation of "Progress," could so distort the facts as to make Charles I appear as the felon, and the ignoble band of grasping, bigoted and filthy-minded Puritans as the just accusers, in this historical trial and tragedy. For in spite of all that the school history book may say, Charles I fought for a cause very much more vital and more fundamental than that of despotism. He fought for the cause of flourishing life against the growing, but already powerful forces of modern capitalistic trade, of democracy, and of mere quantity as distinct from quality." Anthony Mario Ludovici MBE (1882 – 1971)

It's a very concerning trend that the Home Secretary has again moved the goal posts from banning groups that 'promote terrorism', to now banning groups that say unpleasant things online.
It's a much shorter step from here to banning larger, more popular groups who promote ideologies that she fundamentally opposes, under the catch-all of "hate".
Will the "free speech" brigade say anything here? No, which indicates their sincerity.

Home Secretary is taking action to proscribe Atomwaffen Division and list its alias, National Socialist Order.
Unbelievable. An Ecuadorian criminal who produced fake passports for illegal immigrant criminals for a decade, gets Community Service! British non-justice.

Here we go again. Please point out where the racism comes in with the statement above? And what a hysterical (and dangerously authoritarian) local response to this statement, see link for details.

As this indicates, the progressive Left Cancel Culture has created a precedent which can turn around and bite them. "Extremist" content is a very culturally subjective term⏳
