Time for Britain to euthanise the Conservative Party

While the political Right is enjoying something of a renaissance across Europe (Giorgia Meloni’s victory in Italy, Marine Le Pen’s great advances in France, and Jimmie Åkesson’s meteoric rise in Sweden), ironically in Britain, 12 years of ‘conservative’ government hasn’t translated into anything even vaguely resembling a conservative agenda. A major contributing factor to that […]

Policing the response to crime

Politics

A good litmus test of a functioning democracy is the efficacy and neutrality of its law enforcement. These are sentiments echoed in the police oath: ‘I will execute the powers and duties of my office honestly, faithfully and diligently without fear of or favour to any person and with malice or ill-will toward none.’ Sadly,

The Frank Report XL

The Frank Report

Welcome to this week’s edition of The Frank Report, the review that always has its finger on the pulse – and that’s no mean feat, considering the state of the Conservative Party. As the bodycount piles up outside Number 10, the Tories may be more in need of a coroner than a cabinet reshuffle. Yes,

Frank Report XXXIX

The Frank Report

Welcome to the latest edition of the Frank Report, where you find the nation in striking mood. First it was barristers, then the nurses, but leading the charge is the RMT’s aptly-named Mick Lynch, who’s never met a walkout he couldn’t justify. This time round, Lynch is demanding six months of misery or a seven

RIP Your Majesty

Comment, Editor's Choice

So passes Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith. De Mortuis Nil Nisi Bonum as the saying goes, and indeed—the odd ill-judged Twitter malcontent aside—can anyone find anything genuinely disparaging to say about her late Majesty? If you’ll indulge me, I’d like to begin with my own personal grief on the

The Frank Report XXXVIII

The Frank Report

Welcome to another edition of The Frank Report – you find me reporting live from Westminster, where it’s been a busy week. They say you learn on the job, and let’s hope for Liz Truss that turns out to be true, because it’s been a rough seven days for the government. In response to the

The Frank Report XXXVII

The Frank Report

Ever feel like you’ve been sold a pig in a poke? If you’re a Brit, you’ve probably been feeling that way for most of the past 12 years, languishing as we are beneath the misnomer of a ‘Conservative’ administration. But the past week has been a particularly acute test of mettle. Much that the British

The Frank Report XXXVI

The Frank Report

Welcome to another edition of the Frank Report (yes I know they are relentless, but at least I shall snuff it one day and then no doubt you’ll realise your fondness for them). As Queen Elizabeth lies-in-state and the nation enters its second week of mourning, we are reminded of the importance of choosing our

The Frank Report XXXIV

The Frank Report

Welcome to another action-packed edition of the Frank Report. It’s tempting to claim this week’s theme is having a jolly up at the taxpayer’s expense, but how would that be different from any other week? First up was London’s premier family fun day – the Notting Hill Stab Fest, or ‘Carnival’ as it is sometimes
