Tories Suddenly Tough on Immigration?

Immigration (particularly the illegal variety) is unquestionably the fundamental issue facing the West at this point in political history. Whatever side of the fence you sit on, you know that tough talk promising a crackdown on illegals, or compassionate noises about human rights is what translates into votes come election time. During a recent address to the American Enterprise Institute, a centre-right think tank in Washington DC, UK Home Secretary Suella Braverman certainly set out her stall early

Russell Brand: Even Charlatans Deserve the Presumption of Innocence

Comment

I have no position on Brand’s innocence one way or the other, unless it is the general desire to see justice done – however, trial by social media cannot be the way to go. The legal process must be adhered to – if we managed it for Lucy Letby, we can just about stomach it for Brand.

Keir Starmer: All Mouth and No Trousers

Politics

Like the opening scene from Reservoir Dogs (if you assume the dogs had undergone a charisma bypass), Keir Starmer has taken to filming himself striding along the international thoroughfares – as though marching into battle against illegal immigration. First up was this Thursday’s meeting with Europol in The Hague, accompanied by Shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper; followed by

BBC Verify: Economical With the Truth?

Comment

We’ve all been there. Your dream job is up for grabs, yet your CV stares back at you, unremarkable and unworthy. What is one to do? A little embellishment couldn’t hurt, right? I mean, it’s not as if you’re going to get the job anyway. If you do, you’ll just have to show them what

Interview With Ann Widdecombe

Tea With

It was my great pleasure to speak to Reform Party member and former Conservative Minister for Prisons, Ann Widdecombe, on the subject of the death penalty. Over the years, Ann has been a vocal supporter of a reintroduction of capital punishment, and I asked her what she thought of the Lucy Letby case, and its

Sadiq Khan: The Trouble With Whitey

Comment

If you have the slightest ambition to become one of London’s movers and shakers these days, a certain degree of anti-whiteness is non-negotiable – particularly if you happen to be afflicted with the disease of whiteness yourself. This is most clearly visible in that den of ambition, Westminster. Take the Liberal Democrats – a party

The Notting Hill Criminal Amnesty

Comment

If you didn’t know better, you could be forgiven for thinking that the Notting Hill Carnival was a scene from a Richard Curtis film – where Hugh Grant rubs shoulders with Hollywood luminaries, and it’s all a bit twee. The reality of what played out on London’s most affluent streets last weekend (as it does

The Reintroduction of Capital Punishment

Comment

Dear readers, The New Conservative rarely makes any requests of its audience (which is of course as it should be), however on this particular occasion I should be most grateful if you would consider signing the attached petition on the reintroduction of the death penalty in Britain. Over the past few days I have been

Lucy Letby: The Moral Case for Capital Punishment

Comment

By all means make the case against capital punishment (it’s a strong one), but ask yourself this: how are you going to feel when Letby decides to gender transition, in order to move to a prison with a bit more of a nightlife? What will your reaction be when the BBC offers her her own podcast, or she lands a 12-part Netflix series and book deal? It hardly bears thinking about, because you can guarantee that someone, somewhere is weighing up precisely that financial opportunity.

Chess: Checkmate for the Egalitarians

Comment

Being in touch with your feminine side now confers such an advantage on modern athletes, that mainstream sports are finally wising up. Cycling, swimming, and rugby have already taken steps to ban ‘trans women’ from female competition, and others are following suit. This means that the men’s B league is having to look further afield
