BY ALEX STORY Our institutions have ditched sanity and reason. Their official mandates are no longer a priority. Theirs now is the destructive ideology of Gender and Biology. Every nook and cranny of the State, including our three main political parties, drip with this intellectual poison. Having thrown clarity out of the window, they sell confusion. And they do so with the conviction of converts, … Continue reading A Bridge Too Far
BY GARY MCGHEE “Shot by both sides, on the run, to the outside of everything, they must have come, to a secret understanding…” (Shot By Both Sides – Howard Devoto/Pete Shelley 1978) I have never joined a political party and never bought wholly into any ideology. I mainly subscribe to the Groucho Marx view that I refuse to join any club that would have me … Continue reading The Rise of the Anti-Homosexuals
BY IAN MITCHELL Who’s to blame for making it possible for rapists to be incarcerated in women’s prisons in Scotland? Those of us who retained the will to live after the media storm over “the rapist”, Isla Bryson, being sent to a women’s prison while still physically equipped for further raping, will want to know what caused the unexpected eruption of anger with the transgender … Continue reading The Bryson Affair
BY GARY MCGHEE It was May 1997. Blair had recently entered No.10. A new dawn had broken (had it not?) and an even more important dawn had broken for me. Only this one was set to truly transform my life. I met my Baby Bear. We stared at each other across the bar of Compton’s in Old Compton Street, Soho, a smoke-filled, drunk-addled sleaze-pit as … Continue reading The Queer is Dead
BY ALEX STORY “A boy without a winkle? God be praised, it’s a miracle,” Nurse exclaimed joyfully as she remembered the birth of Queen Elizabeth in Blackadder II. She then added “and then Sir Thomas More pointed out that a boy without a winkle is a girl. And everyone was really disappointed”. Bells, the first episode of Blackadder II, aired on the BBC in January … Continue reading Last Days of the Asylum?
BY EFFIE DEANS I don’t think I have read a word by J.K Rowling. When the Harry Potter books became wildly popular, I abstained. Perhaps that was a mistake. Lots of other people have enjoyed them, maybe I would have too. I rather like classic children’s fiction. But somehow the prospect of reading about child wizards going to school did not appeal. My loss. So … Continue reading Truth Sets You Free
BY DOMINIC WIGHTMAN We are told that: ‘good uncles take an active part in their nieces and nephews’ lives. They spend time with them, offer valuable perspective on the family, and help resolve conflicts. They’re people who children and parents can both trust with difficult subjects and to advocate for their interests.’ By this definition an uncle who cannot even recognise most of his nephews … Continue reading Silos & Narrow Definitions
BY TARQUIN SUTHERLAND After last week’s storm in a soy latte that was the Labour Party Conference and the frankly hilarious inability of the comrades attending to be able to define just what constitutes a ‘woman’ even in this day and age – an imbecilic debacle to be forever known as ‘cervixgate’ – we have the Conservative Party Conference in full swing now held in … Continue reading Transtoryphobia
BY EFFIE DEANS Until relatively recently the UK Government was planning similar changes to the Gender Recognition Act that are now being proposed by the SNP. But after listening to the concerns of women it decided to reverse course. At present it is necessary to obtain a medical diagnosis and to wait at least two years before being allowed to legally change gender. That situation … Continue reading Shame on You
BY EFFIE DEANS A woman studying at Abertay University has been disciplined for saying that women were born with female genitals and that it was a fact that women were generally less strong than men. This means that she has been disciplined for telling the truth. It would be interesting to find out about the political views of those who complained and those who judged … Continue reading Punished For Truth Telling
SUB EDITOR Why is it that when this magazine runs an article about the trans community there are always dozens of unpleasant and infantile communications in the days that follow? The magazine is used to receiving abuse from hunt saboteurs and members of the public who disagree with articles we publish. But why is the torrent of abuse from trans people by far the worst … Continue reading Lost in Translation
BY JON ALEXANDER It’s been a common theme that the white middle-classes of the UK and America have, for many years, struggled to define themselves. The rich/elite and upper-classes have focused on their own lives, maintaining their status quo and living in their own little bubbles – rarely letting anyone in. The strong identity working-class have their own traditions and history, they embraced community, worked … Continue reading Gary & Karen
BY JAMES BEMBRIDGE One cannot browse Tory Twitter without noticing a disturbing lack of diversity among its younger members. Predictably, a great deal of them are of the now proscribed ‘male and pale’ variety. Less predictable, though, is how many happen to be avowed homosexuals. This would be unusual for any party, let alone an allegedly conservative one. Strange then that no one has cared … Continue reading Why Are So Many Conservatives Gay?
India Willoughby is an English newsreader, broadcaster, journalist and reality television personality. She is known for being Britain’s first transgender national television newsreader – reading the news on Channel 5. She now regularly appears on ITV’s Loose Women and on Good Morning Britain, giving SJWs hell, with Piers Morgan as backup. Country Squire’s James Bembridge went to meet her: James: Pre-2010 the only word I … Continue reading The India Willoughby Interview
Peter Tatchell is a British human rights campaigner, best known for his work with LGBT social movements. How Britain perceives Tatchell has changed drastically throughout the years and it is perhaps fitting that the trajectory of our opinion has been inverse to the public’s view of his nemesis – hero turned villain, the recently departed Robert Mugabe – who Tatchell famously tried to citizen’s arrest. Once … Continue reading An Interview with Peter Tatchell
BY DOMINIC WIGHTMAN That first driving test was a nailed-on fail from the start. Not due to any lack of preparation. Not that I was a worse driver than for the second test, which I passed. Not because of the car I used or the conditions that day. “Good morning, sir,” was how I greeted the driving examiner as they walked out of the test … Continue reading Identity Fiddlesticks
BY SAM WHITE Progressive types have been pissing and moaning their way through 2017, constantly on the verge of either breaking a cup or checking in to a psych ward, but good news is round the corner. A vision was revealed to me and I can let it be known that 2018 is the year when all the metro-leftist dreams come true and society is … Continue reading 2018, The Dream Maker
BY INFAMOUST The Great Winter Distraction is almost upon us. Christmas as it was once commonly called – but that is too exclusive now, even though the name of the festival still clings doggedly on. It is only in very isolated pockets that one finds any sort of seriously pious observance of this time of the year. The Orgy of Consumption is all encompassing, Santa … Continue reading Christmas Repurposed
BY SAM WHITE Hate. Are you a hater? Perhaps a hate preacher of some variety? I’m veritably overflowing with hatred. Perhaps, to some limited extent, I even strive to spread hate. I think I may be in the act of preparing to disseminate hatred right now, by typing these words in the hope that they’ll be read, thereby furthering the corruptive agenda to which I … Continue reading Illiberal Derangement
BY SAM WHITE Earlier this week it was announced that the Conservative government is planning to make changes to gender identity rules, allowing people to change their birth certificate so that it records them as the sex of their choice, or even just assign themselves a biologically impossible X in place of boy or girl, all without consulting a doctor. Currently it’s necessary to have … Continue reading Beyond Criticism
