A hallmark of totalitarian societies is that there’s no escape from politics and the dominant state ideology. Recent events demonstrate that we’ve now sadly reached that point in Britain, the US and other Western countries.
The Washington Post’s effort to ‘make sense’ of the existence of black Trump supporters is just more specious nonsense that compounds the insulting myth that black people can only be defined by their relationship to ‘whiteness’.
Rather than questioning Tory lockdowns, Sir Keir Starmer’s party, and the wider British left, have only ever called for them to be harder, faster and longer despite the havoc they wreak on those they claim to represent.
The Washington Post has restored a tone-deaf anecdote mocking prisoners’ suffering to its rightful place introducing a profile on the sister of then-candidate (now VP) Kamala Harris, after getting called out for removing it.

If you thought a president who needs 25,000 troops to safeguard his inauguration from threats that appear to have been manufactured would at least treat his praetorians with some gratitude and respect – well, you’d be wrong.
The option of stopping the rise of Trumpism by changing the system has been taken off the table. Instead, people are being asked to debate the pros and cons of giving more powers to that same corrupt system which created Trump.
Britain’s downgrading of the status of its EU ambassador – because it is not a country – has upset Brussels. But with anger mounting among members over Covid and China, surely it has more pressing issues to worry about?
Law enforcement is complaining about social media platforms’ full-frontal assault on American political dissidents’ freedom of speech, crying that removing so-called ‘extremists’ from the internet makes it harder to spy on them.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have done more damage to women’s rights in one day than Donald Trump managed in four years with their misguided Executive Order on Gender Identity Discrimination.
The burden facing Americans is about to get greater. Taxes will increase, the cost of living will go up and 11 million illegal immigrants will become citizens. Liberal ideology is expensive, and the elite won't be paying for it.
The announcement of an intelligence review on Russia shows Joe Biden’s intent to get tough on Moscow, and at the same time discredit Donald Trump. But this is likely to have major geopolitical consequences.
The UK’s new lockdown is driven by the NHS’s failings – even in a normal winter, it can barely cope with a rise in demand. We need to have an honest debate about it, not put it on a pedestal as the so-called ‘envy of the world.’
Americans, Canadians, Britons and Dutch sitting at home under harsh Covid-19 lockdowns can feel joy that their governments found time and money to help ‘Al-Qaeda’s medical service’ in Syria make masks and gowns for terrorists.
British children suffer record levels of depression in our Covid lockdown, with suicidal thoughts, self-harm and eating disorders surging. With schools unlikely to reopen until April, it’s not just their education that’s at risk.
The streets of Britain raged last summer as Black Lives Matter protested the death of George Floyd in America. Why the ambivalence, then, to the police’s alleged conduct in the strange case of Sheku Bayoh in Scotland?
Joe Biden is now the president of the USA. His day-one executive orders should have prioritized ending the single worst crisis in the world in Yemen, a war in which he campaigned on ending US involvement, but they did not.
Newly declassified papers dismantle what little remains of Christopher Steele’s credibility, and raise more questions as to why his infamous dossier consumed the media’s attention, and imaginations, for much of Trump’s presidency.
Jeff Bezos’ firm’s offer to the nascent Biden administration to help deliver experimental vaccines across the US is a clever scheme to avoid potential legal liability – and burnish the e-tailer’s own reputation into the bargain.
You only have to look back at the president’s record during the Obama administration to know that he is Pinocchio Joe – a politician adept at brazenly telling lies, and saying one thing and doing another.
A parting gift of sanctions from Beijing for some key members of Donald Trump’s administration is China’s way of telling Joe Biden that the US aggression and threats of the past four years cannot be the new normal.
One of Donald Trump’s major selling points from the outset was his insistence on tackling the special interests responsible for corrupting American democracy. Now he’s left the White House, it’s clear he failed to deliver.
On his first day in office, Joe Biden declared he’ll dismantle Donald Trump’s 1776 Commission, fully embracing critical race theory. This will ultimately lead to worse racial divides and now it’s up to the citizens to stop it.
Aristotle said that time is the most unknown of all unknown things. We talk about its mystery with Professor Carlo Rovelli, theoretical physicist and best-selling author.
