Charles Moore was appointed by Margaret Thatcher as her authorised biographer. He published three volumes between 2013 and 2019. Now, timed to coincide with the centenary of his subject’s birth this month, he has condensed those into a single-volume thousand-pager, which I highly recommend for all those interested in the question of how to rescue Britain […]

First Italy, now South America. Populism is awake, and it sounds like common sense. From Milei in Buenos Aires to Meloni in Rome and Independents in Basingstoke, the revenge of the ordinary working man and woman, long sneered at by the metropolitan elite, is in full swing. In Buenos Aires, Javier Milei’s alliance has just

If you have republican tendencies, then this book may tip you over the edge. Ostensibly about Prince Andrew – the Duke of York – and his former, yet strangely not estranged, wife Sarah Ferguson it is impossible not to see the sub-plot which reads a bit like “why did Her Majesty the Queen (Elizabeth II)
As the head of the Free Speech Union, I frequently have to come to the rescue of academics who are in the process of being cancelled, usually at the behest of their colleagues. Scarcely a week goes by without an ‘open letter’ circulating in which hundreds of lecturers are calling for the scalp of a

Wasn’t it inevitable? Named early as a potential successor to the previous arse-bishop, the only thing that surprised me is that it took so long to appoint her. By ‘her’ I am, of course, referring to Dame Sarah Mullally who has just been announced as the next Archbishop of Canterbury. Apart from anything else, this

Cancel THIS is surely the book we have all been waiting for. It is hilarious – mostly – and instructive. I say ‘mostly’ because, at times, you must pinch yourself to be reminded that for over two years the citizens of the world went mad with mask mandates and one-way systems in pubs, while the
‘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.
