I have a confession to make: I’m a misogynist. At least, I certainly hope I am in the eyes of those who pontificate on such things, and clearly have no idea what the word actually means. I know that women don’t have cocks; that they are distinct from men; and that they are unlikely to best men […]

There are few things worse in governments, corporations and societies than the mentality that ‘something must be done’. Mostly because nothing needs to be done or that which is done is entirely the wrong thing. Following the dreadful shooting incident in Dunblane, Scotland in 1996 – tennis star Andy Murray was one of the children

My jaws are still aching this morning following the Free Speech Union Comedy Benefit at the Backyard Comedy Club last night in Bethnal Green. This was comedy like it used to be: offensive, insightful and most importantly, hilarious. The Free Speech Union, the brainchild of Toby Young (now Viscount Young of Acton), was formed after

A spectre is haunting the West—not of revolution, but of forgetting. It is a quiet, insidious amnesia, not of dates or battles, but of the very intellectual grammar that built the free and prosperous world we inhabit. The syntax of liberty—the complex, humane arguments for limited government, spontaneous order, and individual sovereignty—is fading from the

Will some wise men appear or, more likely, will Crowborough only learn its fate when coaches are sighted rolling into its training camp? A camp which only two weeks ago hosted 114 eager young cadets for a

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
In November, the Daily Sceptic reported that a policeman had told a Christian preacher that some words painted on his van “could be seen as hate speech in the wrong context”. The words were a Biblical verse: Chapter 3, verse 16 of the Gospel according to John, “For God so loved the world that he gave

When did you become you? It’s hard to tell really. Is there even a “you” for you to have become? Your bloodstream is full of oxygen you have just breathed, your muscles are currently using the protein you recently consumed to build or repair muscle. The “stuff” that makes you up today is not exactly
