Libertarian: Libertarians are classical liberals who strongly emphasize the individual right to liberty. 

Authoritarism: the enforcement or advocacy of strict obedience to authority at the expense of personal freedom for example Adolph Hitler, Stalin.

Hedonism: The word ‘hedonism’ is a derivative from the ancient Greek for ‘pleasure’. Psychological or motivational hedonism says that only pleasure or pain motivates us. Ethical or evaluative hedonism claims that only pleasure has worth or value and only pain or displeasure has disvalue or the opposite of worth.

The Greek philosopher Epicurus was a hedonist. He writes that there is pleasure in simple things such as mindfulness, friendship and enjoyment of simple things at work, which is more likely to bring one tranquillity rather than extreme pleasures which are harder to achieve and .

He opened a school which studied happiness.

Authortarism/libertarianism	Page 18. ‘Boris Johnson by a country mile is the best Prime Minister to lead the Tory government’.
Pro-tory	Page 18. ‘Boris Johnson by a country mile is the best Prime Minister to lead the Tory government’ represents an attitude that the only way is for the Tories to win for the country to be run well. Patriotic too with the use of the metaphor – ‘by a country mile’, meaning England.
