TLITD: Großbritannien Über Alles

Fantastic TL:)

Just one issue with the last update though- even so far after the POD I can't see any recognisable version of the Liberals supporting some of May's more repressive legislation. The civil libertarian grass roots would be furious.

This is true, the Liberals have become unrecognizable, a shadow of their former self even. Part of this is can be chalked to the Sixteen Year long Coalition with Howe and being in the wilderness for just over a decade, which has resulted in desperation and a shift to the right. They haven't really supported anything that the Liberal Democrats didn't IoTL; granted, the Blue Society is just a more Conservative version of Cameron's Big Society, however the really oppressive stuff isn't a factor in May's Government until she and the Miliband led Labour are in a Coalition. I'd suspect that the Civil Libertarian Branch would find itself more accommodated in the Greens at this point.
