Claire Fox’s journey to being Baroness Fox of Buckley runs through the Troskyist Revolutionary Communist Party, to Living Marxism magazine, Spiked Online, the Academy of Ideas, the Brexit Party, and now the House of Lords. In this interview, we discuss whether Baroness Fox’s perspective on her habitual topics of free speech and Brexit have been changed by COVID and her own elevation to the top of the establishment, and whether there are connections between Britain’s peculiar strain of libertarian Marxism and the political of project of Boris Johnson.
