I set up the Free Speech Union two years ago because I was concerned about the erosion of free speech and in the past two years things have got much, much worse. Back then, about half a dozen people were cancelled every week; now, it’s about half a dozen a day.

Today’s by-election in the Birmingham seat of Erdington was supposed to be a walk in the park for the Labour Party candidate, Paulette Hamilton, who is campaigning to become Birmingham’s first black MP. The election follows the death, in January, of veteran Labour MP Jack Dromey, who won the seat at the 2019 general election
Who are the media kidding? Paulette Hamilton is ‘moderate’ for the Labour Party Read More »
I’m no expert on geopolitics. I slept through most of GCSE History, and I could just about find Ukraine on a map (assuming you gave me a couple of cracks at it). But I know something – the West isn’t the West anymore. For too long now, we’ve been getting away with non-actions; repackaging our

It is with regret that a sombre mood has gripped us this week, and the jokes are a bit thin on the ground. First we had the (thankfully false) rumours that her Majesty had died after contracting Covid. Rumours first circulated by the blog, Hollywood Unlocked, who quickly apologised for the story; but not before

It is a hard-earned perk of old fogeyhood, that one has long-ceased to accept homework from those in authority. While in small doses homework may be harmless enough, prolonged exposure to the substance leads to serious long-term complications. Indeed, several cohorts of mine were so brutalised by the harridans who dispense the stuff, they actually

It seems the perpetually-offended are having to go the extra mile these days. With almost all aspects of culture already decried as too white, grievance campaigners are getting creative. Perhaps there will come a day when North Korea rightly faces international opprobrium for its inexcusable whiteness, but until such time, it’s good to see the

Anyone who fears politics has become stale of late, stilted by the never-ending saga of Covid – prepare yourselves for some entertainment: Lutfur Rahman is back! Yes, it’s been five years in the wilderness, but the Arthur Daley of Tower Hamlets is once again hitting the campaign trail to become mayor. Those with long memories

Gender’s a tricky subject these days, with boys and girls encouraged to chop and change the contents of their pants like we used to collect Panini stickers. That’s worked out well for ‘transgender’ swimmer Lia Thomas though, who broke the Ivy League 500M freestyle record so clearly, she had time for a shower and a

I wondered how long it would take for the media to accuse the Canadian freedom protestors of toxic masculinity, and thanks to ABC presenter Patricia Karvelas, I didn’t have long to wait. Indeed, watching the protests in Ottawa, it’s hard to stomach the pure bile of citizens daring to refuse vaccines that don’t work, singing
Thank God for Canada’s toxic masculinity Read More »
I have a confession to make – I don’t find Jimmy Carr funny. I don’t say that to knock him; he’s doing his thing and good luck to him. I merely make the point, no matter how many rave reviews I hear, I’ve always found him to be a shock jock without a punchline; rude,
In reluctant defence of Jimmy Carr Read More »
