Today we publish an investigation into various claims made against a member of the European Parliament. Our aim in doing so is to follow our investigations wherever they may lead, without regard to the political affiliations of those involved. This is, after all, the ultimate goal of investigative journalism.
Investigative journalism was not part of our long-term plans when we launched this publication 15 years ago. However, since then, we have grown—from a simple four-page newsletter to a quarterly journal of ideas, now with a daily news and analysis website.
This evolution has not been without its growing pains, but if there is one thing that is certain, it is that readers are hungry for both ideas and information—especially when it comes to the conservative and nationalist-populist groups, movements, and parties that we have always seen as our bailiwick.
Part of our task has thus always been to consider with seriousness and sobriety—and, when warranted, sympathy—those who seek to preserve national sovereignty and the hallmarks of European civilization that are actively being destroyed or undermined by public and private sector elites, and foreign powers. However, part of our task has also always been to seek to delineate those ‘boundaries’ beyond which we think responsible and constructive conservatives and Rightists should not venture.
This requires questioning those so-called conservatives among us who, for one reason or another, find themselves foolishly enamored of or seduced by the power of totalitarian political regimes or globalist forces in our world. This has included, most notably, China.
It is one thing for Western globalist elites to have all but prostituted themselves for lucrative business deals with the CCP. It is, however, quite another thing for Western European conservatives—that is, those who are supposed to be doing restorative and rehabilitative and reintegrative work on behalf of our Judeo-Christian civilization—to get ‘chummy’ with the Chinese communists or to engage in other activities for gain. The ongoing ‘Qatargate’ scandal clearly illustrates this point. It points to internal contradictions and a misguidedness that demands a remedy. At times, it is also accompanied by a corruption of the spirit and mind.
With today’s publication of Thomas O’Reilly’s report that suggests similar kinds of shenanigans, we seek to shed a light on corners of our conservative constellation where questionable characters often operate with impunity. Sunshine is often the best disinfectant.
Our hope is that similar investigations that we have planned for the coming months will also lead to a cleaning of the Augean stables among other parties and organizations—for the vices common to today’s political class are common to man. The great literary and philosophical works of the West teach us this—as do our ongoing investigations and reporting. Stay tuned.
