Citizen, these are Double Plus Ungood Unapproved™ opinions

You will not read this Unapproved™ opinion:
[UK Independence Party Nigel] Farage’s support for relaxed [UK] gun control is particularly controversial given there is a cross-party consensus that restricting firearms helps reduce gun crime and protects communities.
It is Unapproved™ because of the following comment left there by nekulturny commenter Kevin B:
given there is a cross-party consensus that energy rationing is good for growth.
given there is a cross-party consensus that bureaucrats can manage businesses better than their owners.
given there is a cross-party consensus that paying money to people to not work is investing.
given there is a cross-party consensus that the more complex the tax system is, the ‘fairer’ it is.
given there is a cross-party consensus that when the public ignore the current laws then more laws are needed.
given there is a cross-party consensus that giving ‘offence’ is a more heinous crime than mugging.
etc.
etc.
Citizen, you absolutely will not engage in the Thought Crime™ of comparing the UK's political situation with the United States' political situation.  Relax, Citizen.  All is well.  All is in Good Hands™.
