That you interpret that as an attempt to silence may mean that other things are equally misinterpreted as fascism?

I see no evidence of it whatsoever to be honest. Our prime minister has been held to account by the press, by the judiciary and by protesters in recent months. Having been democratically elected in 2019 he stood down and the new leader will face an election within the next 3 years.

I do have concerns about creeping authoritarianism, most notably about an economy shifting away from cash which I consider a very dangerous precedent, the power of big tech, as well as the ease with which Covid restrictions were imposed and stuck, but I don't think we are remotely close to fascism.
If you seriously think that Boris Johnson "has been held to account by the press" then you are seriously deluded or perhaps you are just guilty of doing what you constantly accuse others of i.e. misinterpreting your own bias into fact.

The majority of our media were besotted with him and most remain so, mainly as he did their owners bidding and are now awaiting their reward. You may have noticed the concerted campaigns against the Commons Standards committee due to them actually holding him to account.

May I ask where the judiciary have held him to account in recent months?

Protestors? How very dare they! Never mind, they have legislation in hand to stop that nonsense.

Your final paragraph could have been written by Wales-Bales or Organ Morgan so I'll ignore that as I do them.
