The Return of Nu Metal

Negativity, including the aestheticization of aggression, can serve as temperature shock, coaxing the culture into respecting the integrity of certain barriers.

Arrested for Use of the Word ‘Lesbian’

Everything about this case stinks, and if the officers involved are not sacked alongside serious consequences higher up the police food chain, this will be a missed opportunity to get the force back on track.

The Anti-Trump Third Party

This third party promotes ‘Unity’ and promises to solve problems. In reality, they are walking backwards into the future, focusing their political energy on one thing, and one thing only.

“All in This Together”: The UK Asylum Con

The most basic inspection of the facts leads one to the conclusion that every cog in the immigration wheel is either milking the system, or at the very least working against the interests of the British people.

Trump, Navalny, Biden, Putin, and 2024

The latest indictment against Trump makes it look as if President Biden, like President Putin, is trying to silence a political opponent. If one of them is a totalitarian, isn’t the other as well?

Boris, We Really Do Need More Babies

As bemusing as it is to imagine Boris Johnson scratching his head over Barbie, I was pleased to see him pick out the challenge to modernity nestled amongst the bubblegum pink hues: “[Barbieland] has children, but no babies. It is a parable about the destiny of humanity.”

What If It’s True?

What If It’s True?

European Governments Scoring an Own-Goal by Leaving the Energy Charter Treaty

European Governments Scoring an Own-Goal by Leaving the Energy Charter Treaty

Why Did Republicans Not Do Better?

Why Did Republicans Not Do Better?

We cannot know for certain what the outcome of the election will be; the very fact that there will be recounts only gives more weight to the “what happened?” question.

The Biden Debacle

The Biden Debacle

Biden has become such a problem for the Democrats that some candidates have quietly asked him not to come and stump for them in their local races. His appearances would lose more voters than they would gain.

Religious Freedom Violations in Turkey Should Prompt the EU To Reflect on Its Own Commitment to Human Rights

As we consider the future of Turkey’s relationship to the EU, this is perhaps a good moment for Europe to reflect on its own commitment to human rights. Religious minorities need the EU to stand strong in its commitments to democracy, equality, and freedom for everyone.

French Government Not to Be Trusted on Immigration

French Government Not to Be Trusted on Immigration

The government would like to achieve “almost 100% enforcement.” But, while the number of illegal immigrants continues to increase, removal measures are less and less applied. Statistically, an illegal immigrant is more likely to be regularised than to be removed.
