Are Gray's Tory roots showing?

Does he really think that "globalization" was the personal political project of Bill Clinton, rather than something with several centuries of capitalist precedent? Didn't he ever hear of a little thing called the British Empire? Weirdly, he does concede some precedent in a copule of paragraphs, but then that concession disappears.
