DeSantis is a prominent member of the Republican Party who put Trump forward, and became the President of the USA. They are a party far to the right of the Tories and have decided to ban any teaching of Critical race theory( the way white Americans exploited slavery).
DeSantis has turned Florida into the extreme right wing capital of the USA . I don’t need to twist anything to prove that I just googled it and do keep abreast of USA politics since Trump. He is also having a pop at Disney because they won’t adhere to his banning of the word “gay” and his opposition to gay rights as well as banning classroom discussions on sexual orientation and gender identity.
He also advocates the right of Americans to carry any guns wherever they want without checks and of course he refuses to use his power as governor to stop openly Nazi groups from plying their trade. He wants to curtail the rights of the press and is reducing abortion beyond 6 weeks.
Finally if you don’t think Brexit had a big part to play in the Dover queues pray tell us what did?
