‘Cultural appropriation’ and ‘whitewashing’ in the entertainment industry are, much like increasing parts of multicultural Britain, no-go zones. “Only gay actors should play gays”, “save the disabled roles for the disabled” the luvvies cry. And while naturally Blacks not only can but are encouraged to play white roles, no-one within a five mile radius of the dressing up box […]

Following the controversial series Adolescence which divided critics, undeterred, Netflix have released a new mini-series Senescence which, as the name suggests, portrays the issue of toxic masculinity at the other end of the age spectrum. Adolescence sparked controversy. While it was lauded by the Guardianisti and left-leaning politicians, it was panned by more conservative-leaning commentators.
The following is the text of a speech I gave at the Margaret Thatcher Centre Freedom Festival yesterday. Since arriving in the House of Lords, the most disheartening thing is how often a Government Minister is able to reply to an excellent point made by a member of the Opposition by saying: “But the noble
It has been about 15 years since I last saw my children. A prolonged separation (undertaken for what I perceived to be the greater good) led the court to conclude that too much water had flowed under the bridge and later, by the time they were re-located after a move overseas, age meant the legal

Britain is beset by two unspeakable evils: the enemy without and within. To all intents and purposes, these are faces of the same coin. First, there are the Axel Rudakubana’s of this world – those for whom the death penalty is too lenient, as you could only hang the bastard once. These savages are omnipresent

Human frailty is the inescapable backdrop to the rape-gang scandal. Whether it be the perpetrators driven by racism and the sordid desire for sado-sexual gratification, the bystanders intimidated into terrified silence, or the enablers willing to sacrifice children for the good of ‘community relations’ and the survival of their multicultural, identitarian fairytale, human frailty is

Christmas is far and away my favourite time of the year. A rare moment in the calendar to slow down and unwind. The chance to savour the food and the wine, however humbly it arrives on the table. A time to reflect on the year, warts and all, and an opportunity to be grateful for

“I don’t pay any attention to Elon Musk” opined the politician turned talking head, adopting the de haut en bas tones of Maggie Smith in Downton Abbey. He is, of course, only a politician turned talking head because he lost his seat at the election, which leads to the perhaps surprising implication that the views

Regular readers may remember my struggle a year ago to get an A.I. to produce an image for Christmas. Being every bit as male, cheap and lazy in 2024 as I was in 2023, and having the additional justification that it would be an interesting check on the improvement in our soon-to-be silicon overlords, I

When the Labour Party chose Jeremy Corbyn as its leader, Peter Hitchens wrote an article for the Daily Mail asking whether the Conservative Party could choose a true conservative leader now that the Labour Party had a true socialist as theirs. What the Conservatives had as prime minister during Corbyn’s party leadership were three leaders
