What promised to be the dullest general election in living memory has finally been shaken out of […]

Following on from his initial manifesto post, Alastair MacMillan moves on to defence. Target: Defence forces that are well-balanced to meet the threats that may manifest themselves against us and our allies. To prevent war, we must be seen by our adversaries to be strong in depth. Until the advent of flight and submarines, battles were

It’s hard to make the past 14 years of Tory incompetence look polished, but Rishi Sunak certainly made a good fist of it during Wednesday’s farcical performance outside Number 10.

Last week’s local elections were revealing. With the loss of almost 500 councillors, the Tories are toast. Reform UK performed in line with polling, but are still not quite getting over the line without Farage at the helm. London might as well be boarded up, having elected Sadiq Khan for a third term despite his

Following the decision by the government to make it illegal to own one or more hens without registering with DEFRA, I will definitely not be voting Conservative at the next election. The only thing that would change that decision is cancellation of this completely ridiculous piece of legislation. As part of my push back against this

Sadly, for him the Mullah of Maryhill and race-baiter Humza Yousaf has pulled the pin from his political grenade and

According to the usual pearl-clutching commentariat and our cowardly elites, Israel is not doing enough to avoid civilian casualties in Gaza. Apparently over 30,000 civilians are dead, the majority of whom are women and children. To some, these distressing figures, fabricated by Hamas and enthusiastically announced by their cheerleaders in the western media, most notably
