Who are the Oxford Libertarian Society...

[Steel Icarus]

...and what influence do they have? Whose ear, in other words?

One of their people, James Lawson, has been Twittering about this bunch debating how to solve poverty. But why exactly is it anything to do with them?

It's these guys - http://users.ox.ac.uk/~sedm3622/aboutus.html - previously known as the Hayek Society (after Friedrich Hayek).

James Lawson is or was also president-elect of the Oxford Uni Conservative Association according to this.

A load of Adam Smithites (possibly a euphemism).

A shower of cunts. They are the worst kind of posh chinless fucks - the evangelical ones.

James is long past his sporting peak, but still enjoys amateur fencing (though he is worse than his colleagues), and some shooting (the easy way to win a sabre duel). He instead much enjoys cooking, good food, wine and the occasional gin.

Fuck off posh boy

They also seem to have the 'right' to be among the future leaders of the UK; so not really just a question of speech, but of political power.

That's up to the electorate, not them. There are plenty of people on the Left trying exactly what they're doing.
