D.H. Lawrence Against The Machine 

In Lawrence’s poetry, we catch a glimpse of how exactly the lordship of the machine is instituted: not with guns at the door, but on the altar of our worship.

Europe Starts Looking to China

It is evident that the prospect of closer ties with France is very much on China’s radar—and understandably so, France’s trust would be an immeasurable boon to the extension of China’s influence through Europe and the curtailing of the U.S.’s influence. 

Nottingham: Stick to the Script

In Nottingham, the police have just been granted an extra 36 hours to question the suspect—that should give us all the chance to start singing “Don’t look back in anger,” before any anger has the bad taste to show itself.

Trump is Abandoning Social Conservatives

In recent months, Trump has blamed social conservatives for Republicans’ weak performance in the 2022 midterm elections. Why should they continue to support him?

Britain Poised to Unite the Right?

Farage has officially gone public with his intention to re-enter the fray. Whatever else might be said about him, his track record of leading insurgencies is second to none.

DEMOCRACY WATCH
The EU’s War on Democracy in Europe

It might seem a stretch for the EU to claim to be defending democracy by denying the right of sovereign nations to decide their own policies. But in Brussels doublespeak, ‘democracy’ can now mean its opposite.

An Open Letter Responding to the NatCon “Statement of Principles”

In June, we published the Statement of Principles. We hoped it would elicit discussion and debate. This letter is what we hope is the first in a series of commentaries on the topic. The signatories say, “In its list of ideals — ‘patriotism and courage, honor and loyalty, religion and wisdom, congregation and family, man and woman, the sabbath and the sacred, and reason and justice’—no mention was made of friendship, compassion, or love.”

American Public Designation: The ‘Liberal’ Fatwa Machine

American Public Designation: The ‘Liberal’ Fatwa Machine

If the U.S., or the UK, purport to keep wielding the holy swords of justice, they should do so with reasonable foresight in order that their actions do not end up making messy local realities even messier.

Irony-Poisoned: Against the Online Content Mill

Irony-Poisoned: Against the Online Content Mill

We are addicted to snarky commentary and the daily-churning of vacuous novelty. We won’t really be champions of anything like ‘tradition’ so long as we remain mired in these postmodern poisons.

Too Young to Lead

Too Young to Lead

The point with the minimum age is not the number, but the notion that statesmanship is a slowly acquired asset. It takes time to build the experience, the skills, and all the intangible qualities that the leader of a nation must possess.

Socialism in the Constitution

Socialism in the Constitution

It is time for conservatives to realize just how deviously the socialist side has moved the fence and redrawn the map.

Media & the Culture War:<br>Everything Old is New Again

Media & the Culture War:<br>Everything Old is New Again

Why Is the EU Backing Away from Freedom of Religion or Belief?

Stonewall Should be Banned

Stonewall Should be Banned

On this occasion, Stonewall has made a grave mistake. They let their mask slip, and revealed a ghastly visage, an exposure which has even left liberals reeling.

Salman Rushdie: The Hour is Late

Salman Rushdie: The Hour is Late

For all the bluster and promises from Tory HQ, none have the stomach for it. Which means, until there is a sea change in Britain, and the West more broadly, the next attack is a matter of when, not if.

Understanding Monetary Inflation

Understanding Monetary Inflation

All we need is for our governments to make one error, and the inflation powder keg explodes.
