BY PAUL T HORGAN Of course, Sir Keir could see a revival in the opinion polls. British armed forces could reveal a Wunderwaffe that, when used by Ukrainians, causes the Russian hordes to retreat from Ukraine like the Blue Meanies did from Pepperland when confronted by The Beatles, while, when used by the USA, permanently secures safe passage in the international waters of the Straits of Hormuz. … Continue reading Kicking the Can
BY PAUL T HORGAN What no-one has commented on is the actual point in time that the question stopped being how Sir Keir would step down as Labour leader and therefore also as Prime Minister, but instead when. The fall of the Marxist Human Rights lawyer from the head of His Majesty’s Government now seems all but inevitable. There will be a tipping-point, largely predicted to … Continue reading Aprés Keir, Le Petit Deluge
BY JON ALEXANDER Recently, we’ve watched Labour MPs and supporters desperately try to downplay the Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer’s donations from Lord Alli. They’ve attempted to claim it’s no big deal, that it’s not a large amount in the grand scheme of things, and that Sir Keir is above reproach and it’s all innocent. Ignoring the fact that someone representing a working-class party, who … Continue reading Labour Sleaze and Why it Matters
CSM EDITORIAL Dear Readers of Country Squire Magazine, the Squires trust that You are well and that 2024 is a terrific year for You and Your families. 2024 is election year both here and in the United States (where a fifth of our readership resides). While we suspect that a Trump will be hard to beat stateside (note ‘a’ rather than mere Donald), here in … Continue reading Not My Vote, Starmer!
BY QUENTIN PIGG Three things are certain to follow a terror attack in Britain: Lessons, Solidarity and Lies. ‘Lessons must be learnt’, and its sister platitude ‘now is the time for solidarity’ are uttered in speeches as dead as those they are written to honour. The killer’s motives are lied about because the lies are easier said than the truth: the truth that we have … Continue reading Lessons, Solidarity & Lies
BY JAMES BEMBRIDGE Any school which The Guardian describes as “controversial” is probably worth looking into, even more so when you discover that the school’s GCSE results are four times higher than the national average. The fact that this school espouses traditional small-c conservative values, such as personal responsibility, often sends lefties into a whirlwind of furious twitter diatribes, leaving them walleyed and writhing in … Continue reading The Katherine Birbalsingh Interview
CSM EDITORIAL The Conservative Party is split by Brexit – to the extent that Soubry and Wollaston may jump soon. The Government is an odd mix of Remainers and Brexiteers and so hardly the meritocracy of days of yore. Perhaps that can be excused in the run up to Brexit – which dominates everything political these days – but afterwards the Government should take care … Continue reading Vegetarians Don’t Eat Fish
BY DOMINIC WIGHTMAN It was no surprise last week to see the “journalist” Sam Kriss ditched by VICE and then suspended by the Labour Party after claims of sexual harassment. Labour hijacked by Momentum placers seems to attract such charmers. It was diverting to see that Kriss describes himself as an intellectual. Then again, these false promisers of Labour – he purportedly bragged to some … Continue reading Nordic Socialism not Venezuelan!
BY MATTHEW CORRIGAN With the holiday season descending and the post-Brexit Pound having found a more realistic level, we may well soon be seeing an influx of foreign tourists to our shores. As ever, they will be most welcome. Seasoned visitors to the UK will be only too aware of our dismal performance when it comes to foreign languages, and will very likely have a … Continue reading A Guide To Post Millennial English
BY BEN EAGLE For anyone who reads my blog it’s probably clear that I’m not overly happy with the direction our country has been going in recent years. The drive to ‘let the market decide’ has, I believe, gone too far and we have forgotten the benefits that collective support can bring, instead opting for some sort of inward-focused, individualistic journey through life. Don’t get … Continue reading Corbyn: Credit Where Credit’s Due
