Outsourcing War

The burdensome administrative task of recruiting members of the British Armed Forces has been outsourced to external companies, led by Serco (who appear to be the favoured partner of the UK Govt in every endeavour these days). I can’t help but feel that the best organisations to recruit members of the British Armed Forces wouldContinue reading “Outsourcing War”

Emmanuel Abayisenga – Read It And Weep

I saw a brief story on Telegram recently about a failed asylum seeker – Emmanuel Abayisenga – in France who had set fire to a cathedral out of frustration at having his asylum claim rejected. He was then offered accommodation by a local priest who, a short while later, he murdered. This story seemed too fantasticalContinue reading “Emmanuel Abayisenga – Read It And Weep”

Context is Everything

The Movement for Greater Israel was a political party that gained momentum in Israel in the 1960s and 1970s subscribing to the idea of a ‘Greater Israel’. There are many different opinions as to the boundaries of a Greater Israel. In 2024 Daniella Weiss said “We know from the Bible that the real borders ofContinue reading “Context is Everything”

Eloi and Morlocks

In this piece, I’m going to draw parallels between H. G. Wells’ ‘The Time Machine’ and our current society. ‘The Time Machine’ featured the Eloi and the Morlocks as 2 fictional species of humans existing on Earth in the distant future. The premise of the book is that humanity has evolved into these 2 veryContinue reading “Eloi and Morlocks”

The ‘Domain of Law’ is Encroaching Upon the ‘Domain of Manners’

I want to raise the subject of how legal subjugation is limiting our personal responsibility by reference to a speech made by Lord Moulton, a noted English judge, more than 100 years ago. John Fletcher Moulton, was a first Baron, Minister of Munitions for Great Britain at the outbreak ofthe war, a noted Judge, aContinue reading “The ‘Domain of Law’ is Encroaching Upon the ‘Domain of Manners’”

Lena Dunham: Toxic Feminist

Lena Dunham, the American actress and feminist is a classic example of the modern progressive: hypocritical; devious; manipulative; mendacious; sexist and racist. I’m going to report on just one incident from Lena’s back-catalogue that highlights all of these traits and, thereby, exposes her as the toxic individual she truly is. The incident in question relatesContinue reading “Lena Dunham: Toxic Feminist”

‘If (2018 version)’ With Thanks to Kipling

In July 2018, students at the University of Manchester painted over a mural of a poem by Rudyard Kipling, arguing that the writer “dehumanised people of colour”. Kipling’s poem was replaced by a poem by the civil rights activist Maya Angelou. https://www.theguardian.com/education/2018/jul/19/manchester-university-students-paint-over-rudyard-kipling-mural In response, I wrote my own 2018 version of ‘If’ to reflect the difficultiesContinue reading “‘If (2018 version)’ With Thanks to Kipling”

Articles I Love

Some articles are so good, they cannot be quoted. Rather, they must be read in their entirety. Herein are such articles…. 1) How the Left lost all purpose – UnHerd: https://unherd.com/2019/10/how-the-left-lost-all-purpose/?tl_inbound=1&tl_groups%5B0%5D=18743&tl_period_type=3 2) Great article here by Roger Scruton, written way back in 2000 would you believe: https://www.city-journal.org/html/bring-back-stigma-11807.html 3) This one is a great summary ofContinue reading “Articles I Love”

The Unrequited Love of the White Working Class

Isn’t it strange that the white working class are the most patriotic of people when, it could be argued, their country has done very little for them. Yet it is the middle class, specifically the liberal middle class, who have benefitted so much that hate the UK the most. I used to find a lotContinue reading “The Unrequited Love of the White Working Class”

Wokeness as Religion

Wokeness is the new sensation that’s sweeping the nation. Its adherents are young and earnest. They have captured the moral high ground from where they sermonise the rest of us (or throw stones at us). Wokeness has many parallels with religion in these Godless times. It’s probably not a coincidence that the weakening hold ofContinue reading “Wokeness as Religion”
