James May is a libertarian!

Was Monbiot right, though, to say that Top Gear is ‘a mouthpiece for an extreme form of libertarianism and individualism’ – basically accusing it of being a right-wing show?

‘I don’t think libertarianism is right-wing, is it? My personal views....are that I like the idea of a society that tries to reduce rules, reduces interference and encourages individual open-mindedness and freedom of thought. That’s how I feel; I don’t see that as a right-wing view.
