Shame has been brought on my family by the news that one of our grandchildren is a knife-wielding thug, who was found carrying a blade into school.

If you didn’t know better, you could be forgiven for thinking that the Notting Hill Carnival was a scene from a Richard Curtis film – where Hugh Grant rubs shoulders with Hollywood luminaries, and it’s all a bit twee. The reality of what played out on London’s most affluent streets last weekend (as it does

Dear readers, The New Conservative rarely makes any requests of its audience (which is of course as it should be), however on this particular occasion I should be most grateful if you would consider signing the attached petition on the reintroduction of the death penalty in Britain. Over the past few days I have been

By all means make the case against capital punishment (it’s a strong one), but ask yourself this: how are you going to feel when Letby decides to gender transition, in order to move to a prison with a bit more of a nightlife?

When it comes to virtue-signalling, as described previously in these pages, Gary Lineker really is

Now I have your attention I am going to tell you something that is nothing to worry about, we’ve been here before; we survived the last time and, essentially, it is a ‘non-story.’ But you’re going to hear about it anyway. There is a new Covid-19 variant circulating in the USA, and it has reached
