This was the Church of England's Shrove Tuesday post. I am an Anglican, but would readily admit that if our Established Church is to die, they will have deserved it.

Oh, we remember. We remember you scaremongering and calling for tougher, longer lockdowns and school closures. #coviddayofreflection #Covid19DayOfReflection

The detention of ‘pro-Palestine’ protester Mahmoud Khalil is an outrageous attack on free speech. The First Amendment protects the right to engage in all speech, and that includes Hamas-sympathising speech. Khalil's arrest sets a terrifying precedent, says Wendy Kaminer

Depressing. The BBC needs to have a style guide: if they mean lockdowns, they should say lockdowns. Conflating Covid with lockdown is what landed kids in this avoidable calamity. Such headlines don’t appear in Sweden, which did manage to distinguish.

There is something deeply wrong when a law passed with cross-party consensus and endorsed by Britain's most trusted charities has made it impossible to run an internet forum for hamster owners.

The most cosseted generation of all time has marinated, like a fetus in a pickle jar, in the brine of their parents' left-wing, virtue-signalling stances; stances formed in a time of unprecedented comfort and privilege, and far from the conflicts they fetishise.

This is why I'm against the idea that those without a lineage going back to King Athelstan are any less 'English'. I know many of my followers disagree and you're welcome to explain why you disagree. But here's my rationale: Yes, English is an ethnicity. But ethnicity is a very

Helen Hims Election Maps UK Opinium Good question Helen. It’s in the nature of progressives to disregard the harm done by their projects. As long as they feel they are right and on the moral high ground there is no limit to the pain they are prepared to inflict. See C20th history…

Utterly extraordinary: Reform are the margin of error away from getting the combined vote of Labour and the Tories among those earning less than £20,000 a year.

Really interesting discussion on this week's Take Me Home - the vibe shift and why are we all feeling politically discombobulated? With an extra special opportunity for 18-30s youtu.be/nvk_GHkWxyU?si…

Labour has shelved what limited inquiries it was prepared to mount into the industrial scale child abuse by Pakistani-heritage rape gangs over several decades. It is fitting that this shameful surrender was made by vacuous ministerial show pony Jess Phillips, who announced it as

November: Ed Miliband bans new coal mines in the UK - including new coking mine in Cumbria - to ‘send a signal to the world’ April: Jonathan Reynolds in crisis talks to buy coking coal from abroad to keep open the UK’s last blast furnaces bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

China produces 1 billion tons of steel each year. We produce 5 million tons. Panicked scramble to save Scunthorpe. Banned the Cumbrian coal mine to produce coke. Abandoned Port Talbot. Ploughing on with Net Zero energy price hikes. This is pathetic.

Nadia Whittome MP Dam right. The key to being progresive is to shower empathy on the most inappropriate people. Whether that be men who want to invade womens spaces, violent criminals, or terrorist groups. You'll hand victory to the far right, but it's fine, cos you can just call everyone racist

Parents were told - by people they thought were experts - that dire consequences would ensue if their children were not given access to puberty blockers. Stonewall told managers and employees that “transwomen” were entitled to enter women’s single-sex spaces and sports. It
