The problem with that word is that it has been used wrongly so often it's lost all meaning. Or rather the new meaning is 'someone who doesn't agree with me.'
I think the whole, hideous politically correct/ 'woke' agenda is far closer to fascism, and the Labour Party is inextricably bound up with that which is why I would never vote for them even though I agree with some of their ideas like re-nationalising water, power and rail.
I am not sure that Johnson has ever identified himself as a libertarian which is a very specific political ideology. He has always been a pragmatist in the true British tradition. That's one of the reasons I voted for him. God spare us from the idealists.
