Back in 2020 I published a series of messages on my old blog that I was receiving from a friend who was then working as a taxi driver in a northern city. Below I republish them. Because I think it gives an authentic window into that terrible time, told from the perspective of someone ‘at […]

After being thrown out of my job in publishing by mediocre tyrants in thrall to a twisted ideology, I went four months unemployed but recently secured temporary work at the Royal Mail doing Christmas sorting. Echoing Charles Bukowski, here’s what I’ve found there. Everyone is very nice. Or at least, they are real – unlike
What future does this country have? 2029 At the general election, no party is able to get an overall majority. And so a coalition of Labour, the Greens, the Lib Dems, Muslim independents and other assorted Left-wing MPs come together to form a government. 2030 A dozen churchgoers are slaughtered by Islamic terrorists on Christmas
Back in 2007 I authored this blog. I fully expect you to have just consumed every word of it before reading this sentence, but if you somehow haven’t (you don’t like noughties style text formatting?) let me pick out a few random bits from it: The ghastly Macpherson Report has been to blame for much

Fraser Nelson can easily be criticised for his hagiographic attitude to 21st century multiracial Britain, with his belief that we generally rub along fine, violent crime has never been lower and things are really pretty good, but his detractors miss the point. Nelson misses something far more fundamental about what we’ve become. He’s not the only

Recent research by Channel 4 showed that black people, despite making up 4% of the British population, are present in 50% of advertisements. Why is this? To even ask the question is to play with fire. But let’s get our hands warm. Essentially, I compare it to foreign dictators’ rallies, where no one can be

In this post I will give a version of my defenestration from my job in an industry I had worked in for over 30 years. I say ‘give a version’, because legally I am forbidden from going into the details. Everything I write will be true, but I will alter some details, blur others, not

BBC cookery show Masterchef concluded its latest series last week, a series that almost wasn’t shown due to controversy. One of its presenters, Gregg Wallace, was sacked following 83 allegations of inappropriate language and behaviour, while his co-host John Torode also fell foul of an offence archaeologist and was relieved of his position too. When

Having recently lost my livelihood and career for standing up to Woke – a story I hope to relate at some point – I needed a quick break abroad before embarking on the next stage of life, whatever on earth that might be. So I decided to go to Marrakech in Morocco, a place –
