Insurgent Steve Hilton Vows Trump-Style WAR On California Red Tape After UK Deep State Crushed Plans
from Harry Cole Saves The West · host News UK
Steve Hilton, ex-adviser to the UK's David Cameron and Fox News’s favourite Brexiteer-in-exile, is now topping the polls as the Republican frontrunner for Governor of California. His mission? “Make California golden again”—preferably before it’s completely bankrupt at the hands of Democrat elites. Hilton’s campaign is all about “Cal-affordability”—his catchy new slogan. The plan? Axe the Democrats’ “climate crusade” to slash gas prices, end subsidies for wind and solar, and tap into California’s own oil and gas reserves. Much of Hilton’s fire is aimed at current Governor Gavin Newsom, whom he accuses of “prancing around” Davos while ordinary Californians suffer. Hilton also reflects on his time battling British bureaucracy, saying it’s “just as impossible to get anything done in the UK as it is in California.” His solution? Appoint aggressive reformers to the state’s endless agencies and cut through the red tape. Plus, find out whether Steve thinks President Trump will be a help or a hindrance?
