"[...] the Brits are out of it with that Brexit farce and their de facto two party system"
Not quite. The checks & balances against the Westminster Executive are holding. PM Johnson has lost every Brexit vote in Parliament - and a Supreme Court action - since he came to the position.
His possible game plan is to bypass the elected representatives and the judiciary by channelling himself as being the embodiment of "the will of the people" whose "simple solution only needs total power". Those are the well-worn catch-phrases of every dictator in the 20th and 21st centuries - and even go back to Julius Caesar's grab for power.
The BBC iPlayer currently has a programme that explores the resonance of those political periods with current times. "A Timewatch Guide Series 4: 3. Dictators and Despots" was made in 2017 - and is apparently even more relevant today.
