How Corona Killed the Crown

Soon, even conservatives will have to ask some unsentimental questions. Where was the royal displeasure when most needed? Where was that counterweight to political power? ‘Locked down,’ is the answer.

White Girls: The Victims the Left Ignore

Western leaders pay for these crimes with minor blips in the opinion polls; Europe’s daughters pay with their lives. But those in power have one more trick up their sleeve: to stop us noticing, and to criminalise our speech when we do.

How To Make Britain Great Again

There is only one path forward for conservatives: to combine tax cuts with structural reforms to welfare-state spending.

The Green New Zeal: A Very Bourgeois Malady

Theirs is performative activism—a self-indulgent pastime to signal luxury beliefs. Pouring milk all over the floor at Harrods doesn’t save the planet, it just shows how little they care about the staff who have to clean it up.

Time for Britain to Euthanise the Conservative Party

Facing inevitable electoral oblivion, in an odd way, affords the political Right a rare opportunity. With absolutely no chance of keeping Labour out of Number 10 (nor any possibility that they could prove worse), the nation finally has the opportunity to bury the Tories once and for all, and unite behind a genuine conservative coalition.

Lola’s Murder: Searching For Political Decency

Recuperation is quite simply the preferred and almost exclusive modus operandi of the Left. Having abandoned the idea of truth, it must look for something else to fuel its battles.

VOX’s Viva22: Remembrance as Resistance

Viva22 centered on the need for historical memory as a safeguard against social engineering and the push for a borderless global market.

The Ghosts of Extremism

The Ghosts of Extremism

After years of chasing Islamic extremists, however, Western governments and their intelligence services, as well as the mainstream media, today seem to have broadened the scope of what they mean by “extremism” to encompass all ideologies, philosophies, and political movements that are somehow deemed “too dangerous” to exist.

The Virtue Contest

The Virtue Contest

The manipulations of the Left are easy to avoid if one does not try to prove one’s virtue using social media.

Much Ado About Hungary

Much Ado About Hungary

There is no indication that David French has ever visited Hungary, but the idea that leading figures of an American political movement in which he no longer possesses even a crumb of influence or credibility feels affinity for that country clearly angers and frightens him.

Ukrainian Patriotism: Between Two Civilizations

Ukrainian Patriotism: Between Two Civilizations

It seems obvious that Russia, as it is now, cannot be an ally of the West. Perhaps in the future the Ukrainian government will be able to rebuild proper relations with Russia while protecting its boundaries. But this currently seems doubtful.

The Moral Hypocrisy of the Corona Hysteria

The Moral Hypocrisy of the Corona Hysteria

Fear of nature will rule every meaningful decision regarding life and death. Viruses and climate change will justify continued social isolation and an increasingly totalitarian government.

The Unexpected Alliance of Conservatives and Hippies

The Unexpected Alliance of Conservatives and Hippies

Reflections on Pope Francis’s Motu Proprio <i>Traditionis Custodes</i>

Reflections on Pope Francis’s Motu Proprio <i>Traditionis Custodes</i>

In a conservative analysis, employed to detect the presence of revolution, one must distinguish the revolutionaries from all others. Revolutions always mark the overthrowing of an established order in favour of a new system.
