The Irish government is going to use legislation to stipulate that a third country deemed unsafe for deportees (in this case the UK) is, in fact, by the power of statute deemed to be safe. You see the irony, don't you? We can all see this?

I felt for him. If he has been told that GC=toxic, not taught to critique, not taught that there is riches in diversity and plurality, not taught that politics is the art of persuasion and that you can be respectful of difference - including on fundamental beliefs about the world

There's 310 miles of border running through streams, mountains, bogs and sometimes people's houses. Dozens and dozens of lanes, tracks and roads dissect it. Thousands of soldiers deployed to it over 30 years of terrorism couldn't stop routine murder and mayhem. Best of luck.

“Government ministers – our elected decision-makers – now find themselves taking the role of counterinsurgents, playing ‘whack-a-mole’ against DEI policies in institutions they are supposed to direct…the incoming 2010 Conservative government should have repealed Blairite laws.”

The attempt by Alan Lester to discredit our paper defending Churchill against unfounded attacks doesn't quite stand up to scrutiny, argues Herbert Anderson: “the critique by Roberts and Gebreyohanes is robust”.
Unsurprising as Andrew Roberts is an award-winning WSC biographer!

In almost any other jurisdiction in the world, this maniac would have been shot dead. He lives to be tried for his appalling crimes because we have a routinely unarmed police service full of extraordinarily brave men and women.

After the last ten years, listening to the SNP ask for a reset and for everyone - all the other parties - to start being nice to each other and work with the SNP is… hilarious.

This is a significant shift. The only group that does not now believe that the NHS provides worse quality healthcare than in other European countries is 18-24s. Doesn't matter how you group everyone else: by sex, political party, region, or class, the result is the same.

Keir Starmer flounders on this question because the Labour Party is trying to hold a line it does not believe.

Denying objective reality does not provide dignity.

Single-sex spaces are sacrosanct. That is why we announced today we are enshrining them in the NHS constitution.

The CEO of Dignity in Dying is openly calling for the suppression of views which go against her organisation's stated aim. And we are supposed to take their reassurances about safeguards at face value?

Because the person delivering it holds a different view from you and lives in a free country. It’s not enormously complex.

No, black youth culture isn't inclined to knife crime, it's scarce in Kenya. But using Victorian vagabonds from a 99% white UK to cull cultural debate about why 13% of London creates 41% of its murderers may inflate another white saviour parachute but will kill more black youths.

Under no definition is Israel committing genocide. According to John Spencer, Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at West Point, 'Israel has implemented more precautions to prevent civilian harm than any military in history'. dailysceptic.org/2024/04/29/thi…
