Douglas Murray versus the Revisionists
Murray was appealing to something far more individually volitional – that of personal wisdom regarding the hugely disillusioned audiences they’re now talking to in this age of information. Veracity matters.

Politics at the Bottom of a Cliff
If all we consume is cynical, shallow and smutty rubbish, our politics will end up mirroring that. But if we’re immersed in heroic stories and finer ideas that ponder on what’s real, right, good and true – we’ll start to demand more from ourselves and our leaders.
The Woke Right and Hoopleheads
Hoopleheads miss the core of conservatism and classical liberalism: liberty of conscience, with its hard-won place in Western history, fiercely battled for intellectually by figures such as the Jew, Spinoza, the Christian, John Locke and the atheist, Ayn Rand.
The ‘Stab in the Back’ Myth
This narrative of Jewish betrayal, based on centuries-old religious prejudices, was heightened in the Nazi era and was fused with political and racial ideology. Christian leaders, both Catholic and Protestant, did not just passively accept this new antisemitism – they supported it.
Europe Begs Russia for War
If Europe had any sensible self preservation instincts left, they’d encourage Zelensky to go back and apologise for his cocky stupidity.
Thoughts After the Bibas Funeral
There are moments in human history so vile, so utterly dehumanising, that they lodge in your soul like shrapnel never to be extracted.

We have not yet come to terms with that massive debacle, with its fake, ineffective and rash “novel” mass “mRNA vaccination” campaign, yet here you are all now seeking to unleash another potential scientific perversion upon us
Trump 2.0
Woke died. DEI died. Illegal immigration invasion died. Corruption got put on notice. Political weaponisation was exposed. The scales of justice were rebalanced.
2025: A Year of Unprecedented Change
Hold on – the ride has only just begun. Get your affairs in order.
The Best and Worst of 2024
One thing for certain is that President Trump is a great friend of Israel and has declared that he not only wants American-Israeli hostages back, he wants them all given back.
New Zealand - Unity or Apartheid?
If Māori want progress – and most do – they must reject these divisive narratives. The only way forward for all of us is to embrace timeless virtues: responsibility, resilience and a strong work ethic.
A Hīkoi Versus a Country
By avoiding clear opposition to this Bill, Luxon has failed the leadership test. We need someone who will stand up for what’s right, not what’s convenient. What’s the solution? It’s very, very simple: equality.
Trump, Surfing the Red Wave
What a magnificent bastard! The United States are lucky to have him.
