I’m not a conspiracy theorist (you can just hear the ‘but’ coming, can’t you?) and I am not an ‘anti-vaxxer’ (refer to previous material in parentheses). This is despite penning two large essays—The New Conservative passim—on the origins of globalism and its current manifestations with Dr Niall McCrae. I have also been very critical of […]
Who in Britain recalls the pandemic? Those long summer days of 2020 in our back gardens sipping gin and tonics, ‘working’ from home and deciding which face mask to wear. We waited with bated breath for the weekly Covid-19 updates from our Great Leader flanked by his trusty medical and scientific colleagues Professors Witless and

Let’s spare a thought for poor old Vlad the Putin. He must be barely able to sleep these days, what with the war and all. But he also has to bear the burden of being expelled from the Eurovision Song Contest, Sainsburys changing the spelling of ‘Kiev’ to ‘Kyiv’ on its chicken Ки́їв (The New

I wish it hadn’t. Vaughan, as many will know, was at the heart of a race row storm in Yorkshire cricket over inappropriate

It is possible that many readers will already have heard of the Dutch brand of chocolate Tony’s Chocolonely (other brands are available). But it is equally possible that some may not, so here goes.

A Globalist Odyssey Dr Niall McCrae & Prof Roger Watson Introduction The concerted and radically interventionist response to the Covid-19 pandemic has ignited speculative thinking on the plans of a putative global elite. In this two-part essay, Niall McCrae and Roger Watson take a historical perspective, focusing on two organisations: Moral Re-Armament and the Trilateral
I popped out at dusk one evening this week to post a letter (for younger readers, this was how people used to communicate until the late 1900s). I live across the road from my previous employer, the University of Hull, and I saw there was a flag at the top of the flagpole on the

The often called ‘jewel in the crown’ of the British welfare state is beginning to look more like a ‘fly in the ointment’ of the nation. When I see that they are continuing with restrictions to visitors entering hospitals, with some places imposing an outright ban, I wonder if the ‘N’ in NHS stands for
