What’s in a Hero? 

At last, we’re talking about one of our own. At last, this counter-society that we laboriously try to preserve against the ill winds of progressivism is enjoying the limelight.

Looking Forward to the Galactic Era

One day, a government official will announce that the stories are indeed true: his government has for decades been in possession of alien vessels and alien technology. That day will mark the beginning of the galactic era for humanity.

Parenthood On Demand

The European Commission’s proposal to require member states to recognize surrogacy as an acceptable form of parenthood disregards the best interest of children and fails to uphold the principle of subsidiarity.

The America Report: Abortion and Fiscal Blackmail

With an ideologically aggressive president, and with the states becoming more and more dependent on money from the federal government, the table is set for fiscal blackmail of conservative states. First out: abortion laws.

Fathers on the Defence

Men are a particular object of contempt, often branded as ‘toxic’ if they refuse to bow to ‘wokeism.’ Ironically, we are desperately in need of good men who live in accordance with traditional ideas of virtue and chivalry–especially as loving and present fathers.

Keeping Your Room Clean: A Vision for Proactive Conservatism

‘Wokeism,’ the current battering ram at the door of conservative values, might have arisen from elite schools and universities in prosperous countries, but this does not explain why it spread with the ferocity that it clearly did.

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?

Stonewall Should be Banned

Stonewall Should be Banned

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.

Joan of Arc Slated for Desecration by Gender Ideologues

Joan of Arc Slated for Desecration by Gender Ideologues

The theatre production scraps what made its protagonist so inspiring in the first place: the very fact of her feminine nature—a young girl who put her virtues to work within a male-dominated field.

The Race to Replace Boris: A Conflict of Economic Visions

The Race to Replace Boris: A Conflict of Economic Visions

The Tory leadership race is a fight between Sunak’s ‘Thatcherite’ concern to prioritise taming inflation and Truss’s ‘Reaganite’ focus on boosting economic growth, even at the expense of deficit-financed tax cuts.

CPAC Texas and the New Anti-Globalist Face of the Republican Party 

One thing was abundantly clear at CPAC Texas: the anti-globalist message—whether spoken by politicians from the U.S., continental Europe, or Mexico—clearly resonates in the minds, hearts, and souls of regular working people.

The FBI Raid Against Donald Trump

The FBI Raid Against Donald Trump

Trump is a credible presidential candidate in 2024. What does it say about President Biden when his Department of Justice orders a police raid on the home of his most likely opponent in the next election?

Tensions Rise Ahead of U.S. Election

Tensions Rise Ahead of U.S. Election

In less than three months, Americans will vote in a midterm election to decide their state-elected congressional representatives. The stakes are high, since many trends in American politics are decided at the state level.

Yale Russia Report Gets an F

Yale Russia Report Gets an F

I wanted to read irrefutable evidence that the Russian economy had suffered deeply and perhaps irreversibly from the war. As I kept reading the report, my hopes fell flat. This is nothing more than an academic propaganda pamphlet.

Pakistan: Paying the Price for Our Indulgences

Pakistan: Paying the Price for Our Indulgences

With Pakistan close to economic collapse, fears of a situation similar to Sri Lanka are growing. But due to the ‘butterfly effect,’ European energy politics have contributed greatly to this chaos.
