Migrants did not build Britain. They came because it was better than staying home, it was better because Britain was rich, and they were allowed to share in that prosperity. 'We built this' is just an assertion to make it a right, something owed, rather than something given.

Last night was a victory for open debate and freedom of expression in a city where the enemies of freedom are working furiously to shut down alternative viewpoints. Thanks to James Orr and Guglielmo Picchi 🇮🇹🇬🇧 and everyone who attended for a fantastic discussion.

1/ We are entering a post-progressive era. The cultural left-liberalism which emerged a century ago and took off in the late 1960s is exhausted. This ‘vibe shift’doesn’t just repudiate the last decade, but the last 60 years. My latest The Wall Street Journal

Lucy Connolly received an extraordinarily harsh prison sentence because she was the victim of an ideological judiciary bent on enforcing regime paranoia about a phantom political movement.

At our event on Trump’s New World Order, James Orr dismantled Europe’s energy illusions: exposing Germany’s dependence on Russian gas and the UK’s self-defeating Net Zero crusade. It’s the US, not Europe, leading on emissions.

A titan died today. Alasdair MacIntyre’s writings may not be familiar to everyone, but they reshaped the landscape of moral philosophy and showed us how attending to the thought of the past can help us find our way to a more flourishing future.

MacIntyre pressed on to develop a broad and deep philosophy: combining the moral, social, and epistemological—the latter involving an account of enquiry, justification, and the integration of knowledge, values, and practice. firstthings.com/recognizing-th…

Private Members’ Bills offer plausible deniability to governments who seek to introduce radical social change while avoiding responsibility for the consequences. Assisted Suicide is just the latest use of a PMB as a Trojan Horse for revolution.🧵1/ConservativeHome conservativehome.com/2025/05/28/mir…

Keir Starmer said to those who opposed his Chagos Islands ‘surrender’ deal that they were on the side of China, which also opposed the deal. It was always a nonsense claim. Mauritius is increasingly within China’s sphere of influence and the deal is clearly in China’s interest.

FSU member Hamit Coskun has been convicted for burning a Quran in a political protest outside the Turkish consulate in London — after being attacked by a knife-wielding assailant. The judge ruled he caused the disorder, not the man who responded with violence. This is Britain’s

Piers Morgan subjected Natasha Hausdorff to an appallingly aggressive interview. He’s better than that. And Hausdorff’s professionalism under pressure was exemplary.

Beyond shocking that the incomparable Lois McLatchie Miller has been arrested in Brussels for stating truths every 3yo knows to be true. Also not a surprise for anyone who witnessed that city’s armed police besiege NatCon Brussels last year.
