BY ALEX STORY The blind can now see. We live in a time of miracles. That which was hitherto hidden lies fully exposed. The European Union has acted as puberty blockers for the godforsaken countries that live under its malignant authority—or those, like Great Britain, being inexorably sucked back into its deadly orbit with the approval of their feckless ‘leadership’ class. Nothing showed how far … Continue reading When the Blind Get to See
BY ALEX STORY Starmer went to Washington to kiss Trump’s golden ring just as a provincial would have a Roman Emperor’s. The UK press thought the humiliating spectacle went well. As a synopsis, on the Chagos Islands and Ukraine, our Prime Minister sought the backing of a foreign power in pursuit of his own foreign policy objectives. Giving Chagos to Mauritius, to which they never … Continue reading Not a Serious Country
BY STEWART SLATER It is a strange phenomenon in humanity that the same idea will often occur to different people at roughly the same time. Newton and Leibnitz invented calculus almost simultaneously. And spent decades arguing over who did so first. Similarly, the late 2000’s were a (actually, the) Golden Age of animated films about penguins. Film pairs follow the iron law of Highlander and … Continue reading The Meaning of Munich
BY PAUL T HORGAN The least surprising political news of the week has to be Owen ‘Squealer’ Jones publicly announcing his departure from the Labour Party. The only real question has to be what took him so long. Jones has been cursing and damning the Labour leadership for over a year, his cussin’ and dammin’ rising in parallel with Labour’s polling. 2024 is an election … Continue reading Exit Squealing, Stage Left
BY ALEX STORY The sirens are calling us to surrender territory for peace. The Windsor Framework rips the United Kingdom apart and robs us of our sovereign dignity. Northern Ireland is to be thrown to the European Union wolves and subjected to rule by diktat. The United Kingdom will have to consult the European Union if it wishes to pass a law that might lead … Continue reading The Constant Lie
BY ROGER WATSON I have just spent one of several weeks this year working in Italy. As with most countries I visit regularly, after initial impressions are over about similarities and differences, once you get to know more people and to know them in depth, you appreciate more of the differences and begin to understand at least part of what makes Italians the way they … Continue reading Have We Lost Our Link to the Land?
BY TOM GALLAGHER Antonio Salazar was Europe’s longest serving Prime Minister in modern times. I wonder how much this can be ascribed to his farming background? In his 36 years presiding over the affairs of Portugal, this conservative autocrat, never allowed himself to be swallowed up by the bustle and self-importance of its capital, Lisbon. He ran Portugal rather like a punctilious head butler in … Continue reading The Single-Minded Country Boy
BY JAMIE FOSTER Should the unlikely happen and a deal materialise, a group of Tory MPs are considering voting against Boris Johnson’s divorce deal unless commitments to EU defence are removed from it. At present the divorce deal promises to keep the UK linked to a series of EU military structures including the European Defence Fund, the European Defence Agency and Permanent Structured Cooperation. This … Continue reading No Deal No EU Army
CSM EDITORIAL The Labour Conference was weak fare. A party split by Brexit, feuds between Trotskyites and Blairites and a leader who has been reduced to changing his spectacles every couple of weeks just in case they give him a new look which some might mistake as Prime Ministerial. Every now and again the electable facade slipped – nationalising cutting-edge drug companies (pharmaceuticals are one … Continue reading Expect a Boris Bounce
BY SAM HOOPER Not everything of value can be measured or counted, and Remainers opposing Brexit purely on economic or materialistic terms are doomed to forever misunderstand half the country when they refuse to view Brexit through any other prism. If we are to have any hope of knitting Britain back together after Brexit, Remainers must first acknowledge and seek to understand an entire aspect … Continue reading Two Brexits
BY VADIM STELKOV It seems to be the season for blaming Russia for everything. And no doubt, though it may come as a shock to civvy street, there is substance in the losing Democrats’ claims of the US elections being disrupted by Putin’s Russian hackers – and Obama political appointees in US intelligence agencies have confirmed as much. The extent of Russia’s hacking is a … Continue reading The SNP Russian Adventure
