Brand’s ability to relate to common folk is perhaps his greatest crime in the eyes of his hecklers in the media-establishment, because his success affirms that one does not need a privileged background or a degree from a (paradoxically titled) Russell Group university, to speak with insight on matters of contemporary importance.
Being yourself is hard. It’s especially hard for young people who are still figuring out who they really are. I understand how a simple explanation for all the confusion and wacky emotions that come with adolescence is tempting. Gender ideology not only offers that, but it also offers the chance to belong to a marginalised group and be part of, not just a clique, but an intense movement. What young people need to understand, however, is that it is much more satisfying to discover yourself as an individual and not as a label.

Ofsted could learn something from the late Ms. Perry. Instead of tormenting schools with non sequiturs, use a bit of good old-fashioned common sense. She did. She knew her school and the children in her care. She didn’t need a spreadsheet to tell her. And, according to the people who matter – the parents – her school was wonderful.

Britain’s enfant terrible of journalism is not what it seems. Once The Guardian newspaper spoke ‘their truth’ to power, now it is the voice for the new establishment and all manner of nefarious interests. How do we know this? Sport shows the way. The popular game of association football, and its showpiece tournament, is the analytical device by which

A recent survey conducted by academics at Oxford and Reading universities found that eight in ten secondary schools are changing their history lessons to focus more on diversity and ‘social justice’. This entails, inter alia, devoting more time to the study of black historical experiences, the Islamic and Mughal empires and the Arab-Israeli conflict. Some

The refugee crisis in Qatar doesn’t make many news headlines, though I guess that’s unsurprising. It’s hard to have a crisis when the proportional increase in population level amounts to a whopping 0.06%.
