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 DOMINIC WIGHTMAN There is a peculiar and necessary cruelty in the language we reserve for our exhausted public men. When we reach for the ornithological, we are not being poetic; we are being clinical. To be termed a ‘lame duck’ is to be diagnosed. It is to be marked not merely for failure, but for a kind of biological irrelevance. The image is precise: … Continue reading The Lame Duck
BY SEAN WALSH Starmer’s demise is like the final minute of the spin cycle: never ending. I suppose part of the fun in making political predictions is the post-hoc analysis of “why I was right when I said this would happen and it didn’t”. And knowing you can be serially wrong without any professional consequence. There’s quite a bit of this about at the moment, much of … Continue reading Sunk Cost Fallacy Territory
CITY GRUMP I CARE. PASSIONATELY. ABOUT THIS ARTICLE. With an almost theological fervour, I do. It is, indisputably, a paradigm-shifting game-changer. Therefore, permit me to curate this epistle for your edification. However, our inaugural manoeuvre must be to unpack, deconstruct, and interrogate the very lexicon that promises to incentivise proactive leverage and maximise cross-platform impactfulity for our 2026 journey. We are compelled to lean in, to synergise with the zeitgeist. This constitutes my formal reach-out. Let us be transparent: not a single iota … Continue reading A Transcendental Manifesto on Lexical Vectors
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 ALEX STORY “There is an enemy. There is a project which is detrimental to our country” said Keir Starmer to The Guardian last week. For the first time in his career, people nodded in agreement. Finally, the multitude thought, “he gets us”. After years of being ignored, humiliated, and branded, finally, the Prime Minister acknowledged what hundreds of thousands of flag carrying patriots had … Continue reading No Solution as Policy
BY ALEX STORY Britons are at war. They didn’t pick, or look for, a fight. It came to them. Initially, the good people of these formerly sceptred Isles thought the accelerating decomposition of their country was due to the incompetence of politicians and bureaucrats alike, or, at a stretch, the educated ignorance of our overpaid experts. Then, as the years came and went, with letters … Continue reading On Every Front They Detest Us
BY DR NIALL McCRAE How a provincial solicitor forced Starmer’s U-turn on rape gangs inquiry At last, the Prime Minister has ordered a statutory inquiry into ‘grooming gangs’. Critics believe that Sir Keir Starmer had turned a blind eye to the systematic sexual abuse of white girls by gangs of Pakistani men, when he was Director of Public Prosecutions. That’s quite a charge, when you … Continue reading Chapeau, Mr Tilbrook
BY JOE NUTT Life has recently dealt me a surprising, but truly delightful blow. I’m getting used to being recognised as someone other than myself. My eldest daughter has made something of a name for herself as a professional gravel cyclist. She travels all over the world racing, sometimes for days at a time, battling across remote, astonishingly beautiful, and often mountainous landscapes. The videos … Continue reading Fifteen Minutes
BY JOHN MUSGRAVE As Brits reel at the scale of the Labour administration’s perfidy it is essential to ask: Why? Why is the Starmer administration doing this? Let us frack down with jack-hammer vengeance to find the answer. Why seek to rejoin the EU when 2TK (Two Tier Keir) said he’d do no such thing. Why impose Net Zero when he must know it’s destroying … Continue reading From Scaredy Cat to Roaring Lion
BY ALEX STORY Starmer is many things to many people. To some he is a liar, to others a traitor, ever ready to serve the interest of the International Collective against that of our country. He might be all that and more, or less, but more importantly, he might be, as comedian and economist, Dominic Frisby, sings, his “toolmaker” father’s biggest achievement, namely “the biggest … Continue reading The Proof is in the Pudding
BY ALEX STORY Macron, Merz and Starmer met on a train to Kiev, to discuss important matters pertaining to the war in the Ukraine. The threesome would hold talks with Zelensky. The aim: to push Russia to agree a reasonable ceasefire. With real prospects of further escalation, the stakes could hardly be higher. To capture the solemn occasion, Agence France Press (AFP), the reputed French … Continue reading On the Devil’s Dandruff?
BY ALEX STORY Ever since the Wall Street Crash of 1929, it has been common for economists to quip that when the United States sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold. If it was true then, the opposite must have been as well. If the health of our cousins beyond our shores got ruder, so should our prospects. Whilst the four months old … Continue reading Quasi Autonomous No Growth Organisations
BY ALEX STORY “In the absence of justice, what is sovereignty but organised crime?” the 4th century AD theologian Saint Augustine asked about government. The question is worth pondering in today’s Britain. On what philosophical basis is our current State demanding ever more to deliver ever less, not to say the wanton destruction of our beloved country? There are two standpoints: The first, from the … Continue reading Paying Taxes: An Act of Treason?
BY STEWART SLATER “You’re a winner” we can easily imagine the Prime Minister, Y-fronts freshly starched, telling himself in the mirror of the Washington embassy. And for a time, it appeared he was. Adopting the perhaps oleaginous mien of a lawyer pitching for a new client, he seemed to have the President eating out of his hand, apparently surprised by the (in no way pre-arranged) … Continue reading A Question of Judgement
CSM EDITORIAL People really don’t like Rachel Reeves. They know she’s a liar. They know she plagiarises others’ work. They know she accepts bunged expensive clothes and freebie Sabrina Carpenter tickets. All the while she targets the people that so many people love – the farms, the elderly, local businesses. Farmers have committed suicide over her farm tax. The elderly have frozen. Businesses are going … Continue reading Brits Will Never Strive for Reeves
BY ALEX STORY Starmer faces a dilemma. On the one hand, he believes “in the power of the state”; On the other, his beloved Leviathan is failing. Reality stands before him as an unalterable constraint. The useful limits of taxpayer-funded government largesse have long been crossed. On the spending front, there is little choice. He is preparing to disappoint his state-dependent constituents. To deflect from … Continue reading Janus Faced
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 THE EDITOR Back in 2016 I wrote a piece exposing the antisemitism of Labour cadres under Jeremy Corbyn and described the Labour Party thus: ‘At heart they are Britain-hating, US-hating, IRA-supporting, anti-Semitic Bolsheviks’ By 2019, the Labour leadership’s links to antisemitic and terrorist groups had been laid bare in a series of MSM articles — exposing shocking connections that both angered military families residing … Continue reading Labour’s Timebombs
BY STEWART SLATER Two-and-a-half thousand years ago, a man turned his back on the high position birth had given him and retreated to a life of solitary asceticism in the forest. Known then as Siddhartha Gautama, he is better known today as the Buddha, and an estimated 500 million people follow his teachings. Ninety years ago, a man died in poverty (due, in no small … Continue reading In Defence of Misfits and Loners
