The Decline of the West – Oswald Spengler

Cultures come into being, evolve, mature and then decline. So wrote Oswald Spengler in his book ‘The Decline of the West’, pub. 1918. Spengler explained that the final form of a culture is its ‘Civilisation Phase’, representing the high point of the culture. From this point the culture starts its decline. Each culture is independentContinue reading “The Decline of the West – Oswald Spengler”

They’re the Same People!

The same people that wanted the UK to Remain in the EU because of the advantages of free movement across the continent are the same people that support 15 minute cities in the UK whereby people will have no free movement. The same people that demand UBI because AI will soon lead to mass unemploymentContinue reading “They’re the Same People!”

It’s All Connected

20 years ago the 2 main points of concern facing a British adult were: 1) The Budget and… 2) whether the Bank of England was going to raise or lower interest rates. The budget was the annual accounting ritual performed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in which we learnt of what additional duty (tax)Continue reading “It’s All Connected”

Confessions Of A Church Crawler

I visit churches whenever I get the chance. It’s got to the point where, if my wife and I are travelling somewhere in the UK, I will identify notable churches along the route that I can stop at, to ‘break up the journey’. People ask me what is the appeal of churches. This post isContinue reading “Confessions Of A Church Crawler”

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”

For the State. Against the Country

Western Leftists hate their countries. I assume there are no dissenters on that point, yeah? That’s a given. To a Leftist all Western countries are riddled with racism and systemic inequality towards minorities. Not to mention that all Western countries  are just a day away from a fascist junta declaring martial law. As a result,Continue reading “For the State. Against the Country”

I Am A Westernist

A lot of the dialogue on political issues focuses on whether you are a Nationalist or a Globalist. Nationalists voted to Leave the EU. Globalist voted to Remain. Nationalists want controlled immigration in order to protect – or maybe even improve – their quality of life whereas Globalists are all for mass immigration so thatContinue reading “I Am A Westernist”

I Am The Counterculture. Hear My Roar!

I am now part of the anti-establishment counter-culture. How thrilling. And how surprising. My background does not provide any indication that this would be the case. I was a Tory from a young age. I always found myself supporting the establishment. I regarded the Greenham Common protests very disapprovingly. These people were Lollards. Did theyContinue reading “I Am The Counterculture. Hear My Roar!”

Live Right, Vote Left

I am often confused by the inconsistency between people’s lifestyles and their politics. The inconsistency is most beautifully exhibited by left wing voters. I have some some nice middle class friends where at least one member of the couple – usually the woman – is left wing. They exhibit all the traits of social conservativesContinue reading “Live Right, Vote Left”

I Come To Bury Tommy Robinson, Not To Praise Him

Tommy Robinson is the EDL leader. EDL are a bunch of football thugs that added racism to their repetoire. Tommy is the guy that bangs on about the evils of Islam the whole time. Everywhere that Robinson goes there’s trouble. He attracts trouble. He should stop antagonizing Muslims. He should let them pursue their cultureContinue reading “I Come To Bury Tommy Robinson, Not To Praise Him”
