That test, as have been said before could apply to any country to varying degrees. It's like saying that a universal healthcare system or council housing or a strong military is a slippery slope to communism.
It's ridiculous and the evidence simply does not back up your points at all, and when it doesn't you just say...aaaaaah we could be on the slippery slope! It's literally no different to Qanon types saying Biden is making America communist.

I'm not sure what your definition of evil is but it seems to think that not condemning people calling for people to be scared online is cool, but removing people from accomodation due to a legionaire outbreak is the sign of impending fascism.

For what it's worth, we probably have the same definition of evil, yours is just blinded by hatred for the government even though the opposition will employ the exact same methods in 18 months time if they win the next general election

You can't keep screaming fascism and think that's making a point, Bob. Yesterday I watched a tiktok video of young men cheering as they were brought ashore to the UK. For you or any else to remotely compare that to how people were treated in countries that have genuinely been on the slippery slope to fascism at points throughout history is, sorry to say, historical ignorance of an extraordinary level.
Lots of words used to, essentially, dodge the question I asked you. I’m hardly “screaming” fascism, I’m saying that the Government “passes” parts of the fascism test as defined by those twelve questions.

As for this point you keep banging on about, doesn’t it all depend on what life was like in your homeland? In Afghanistan for example, someone who was known to have helped the anti Taliban forces before the allied forces left would surely view a move to this country with its Government that some might think is blurring the line between right wing and fascist as the better option.
