I know it's not worth engaging with this pratt, but this post is actually part of the wider problem their politics represents.
An absence of everything bar some pathetic, sloppy anti-Toryism, anti-Trumpism, anti-Johnsonism. So anything that meets that level, nevermind how reactionary it is, is ok so long as it is against the Tories/Trump/Johnson/Brexit. Crap from economists - fine, crap from free marketeers - fine, from the CIA, World Bank. IMF - fine, the LDs - fine, from Ken Clarke or Micheal Heseltine - fine.
