Suella: Brave Decision on Stop and Search

A Braverman than most, our home secretary has called upon Britain’s 43 police forces to grasp the nettle, and “ramp up” their use of stop and search in order to “save more lives,” a decision for which she deserves to be commended. The “dangerous culture” of carrying weapons must end, she commented in a statement to the House of Commons earlier this week. The home secretary has also instructed police forces to publish body camera footage promptly, in order to avoid “trial by social media.”

Britain Poised to Unite the Right?

Politics

Whatever else might be said about him, Farage’s track record of leading insurgencies is second to none. It was he, after all, who won the European election in 2019 with 31.6% of the vote, having formed the Brexit Party just six weeks previously.

Women Still Have Penis Envy

Politics

More and more women are discovering the benefits of the dingle-dangle – specifically the advantages it can bring. First of all, there’s sport. While the three-legged race has long been a staple for mums and dads at school sports day, female athletes are only just coming around to the realisation that a third leg is about as close as you can get to the guarantee of Olympic gold (assuming you’re not blessed with the necessary talent, of course).

Annecy: Je Suis Sick of This Shit

Politics

My heart goes out to the victims, and to France which is still reeling from the last heinous murder of children. But until our politicians are forced to get serious about the consequences of their disastrous immigration policies, I’m afraid there’s no point putting the candles away any time soon.

The Covid Inquiry grinds to a start

Politics

I cannot be alone in thinking that the inquiry has an easy job, and it goes something like this: a respiratory virus of demonstrably low lethality spread here from China; none of the non-pharmacological measures that were introduced had evidence to support them; no assessment of risk was made; human rights were overridden; and the harms of social and economic lockdown were evident long before they were lifted. Explain!

Immigration: Britain Must Call Time on Tory Trickery

Politics

If the electorate had not already done so, it must now accept the reality: the CONservative Party is the party of uncontrolled immigration and it has lied to us, of that there can be no doubt. This is not the usual equivocation of pretending you don’t understand what Brexit means, or that you are incapable of understanding your own lockdown policies; this is out and out deceit.

The Labour Party Manifesto: Unworthy Of A Leak

Politics

Gerrymandering the vote is hardly new territory for the Labour Party, with Tony Blair inadvertently admitting millions of new Brits, mysteriously inclined to vote for him. But Starmer may have bitten off more than he or even Ed Miliband can chew by so thinly disguising his intention to rejoin the EU – having already admitted he would ‘revisit’ the Brexit deal to boost the economy.

The State We’re In: MPs Answer Ten Important Questions

Archive, Politics

MPs are wary of upsetting the majority of female voters, but the clarity of definition may be misleading. Would a ‘trans woman’, who is biologically male, qualify under their criteria? Perhaps this question deterred female MPs from responding. It’s a minefield of politicians’ making.

NHS Doctors To ‘Learn On The Job’

Politics

The problem for the UK is that, while the NHS is utterly unfit for purpose, politically it is considered such a ‘scared cow’ that it is electoral suicide for any party leader to float the idea of reform. Even the outspoken Nigel Farage, who has regularly called for a debate on the matter, has been forced to deny he ever intended to privatise the system.

Dominic Raab: No, Minister

Politics

The picture emerging is a minister working somewhere in the region of a 90-100 hour week, being routinely frustrated by either the incompetence or the wilful negligence of civil service staff. That might justify the odd insult or uncomfortable feeling from time to time.
