!["It's Thatcherism on steroids - this is incredible, cutting and slashing public expenditure, doing all the things he's done….. That's leadership... He is amazing."
Nigel Farage
"[Milei] is the 'chainsaw-wielding, bushy-sideburned wild man of Hayekian free-market thinking'. He hailed Milei for giving Argentina 'the economic medicine it needs' through drastic spending cuts."
Boris Johnson
"Britain needs shock therapy. A Milei-style approach would mean radical surgery. First: stop the bleeding. Slash wasteful public spending. Shut down unproductive agencies and quangos... We need to aim for a primary
[surplus."
Jacob Rees-Mogg
"Milei is the template."
Kemi Badenoch
"Javier Milei rightly tells the elite [at the] awful WEF the facts of life - socialism and state intervention tends to make people poorer."

![Cartoon strip by me who is Stephen Collins. The imagery of the comic starts off with a single electron and then each panel zooms out one step - first to the microchip, then the OLED screen, then the iPhone, the person holding the iPhone, and onwards
Script:
An electron, forged in the first fire of the Big Bang
Courses through a deeply intricate maze of transistors and diodes
mined with unfathomable ingenuity from our planet’s deep geological past
and assembled from all over the world
Into a device perfected through centuries of technological evolution
to perform a beautifully synchronised pixel dance on an OLED screen
in an intricate moving pattern of shifting light
[Show a phone screen with an Instagram post featuring Ryan Gosling and bearing the legend:]
WATCH RYAN GOSLING EAT A PASTY FOR THE FIRST TIME!
whose choreography is powered by an global information network of unknowable complexity
which is specifically tailored to the interests of the being observing the screen
who is a member of the most advanced species on Earth
[Show a shlubby looking GUY idly looking at the Ryan Gosling/sausage roll Instagram reel on his phone while sitting in his pants and a stained t-shirt and eating a massive bag of crisps]
with a brain perhaps more capable of reconfiguring these signals into conscious thought than any other for billions of miles around
[Guy has a thought]:
“Mmm…"
in this endless, silent void.
[Pull back to show the Earth as a tiny blue dot among the stars with a thought bubble coming from it]
"… I want a pasty.”
