Anthony Brown

Anthony Brown is an American politician serving as leader of the New Progressive Party and as a Member of Parliament in the 1st United States House. He was elected in the March 2020 general election, alongside 30 New Progressive Party MPs, for Vermont's 1st congressional district.

Brown was born in Burlington, Vermont, and grew up with his parents there. In 1998, when he was 9, his father moved to the United Kingdom and his mother was unable to take care of him. He was sent to New York City, where he lived with his grandmother until he was 18. In 2007, he moved to his father's apartment in London to take a degree in PPE, before returning to Vermont.

Prior to 2020, Brown was an active campaigner in the Labour party, however the party's move to the centre discontented him. In January, he formed the NPP, which would take 30 seats in March's general election. Some critics consider it, and the Socialist Party, the reason for the fall of the left which would take place following the election and the madness following it.

Brown has been accused of being communist, statist, authoritarian and other radical ideologies: in particular, his gun policy raises many eyebrows. Politically, he is considered a democratic socialist, with some libertarian leanings (a notable exception being gun control). Following the Capitol Insurrection, he was accused of causing the insurrection thanks to his ideology. Fox News accused Brown of being 'mentally unstable' in their coverage: they were temporarily taken down due to this.
