    My book is out in the UK on October 14!  "Whatever Happened to Tradition? History, Belonging & the Future of the West”. Combining history & philosophy, I argue that tradition is beautiful & necessary, that fidelity to our past is key to future happiness. bloomsbury.com/uk/whatever-ha…

    In a hundred years time, I can imagine an angry crowd throwing a statue of Piers Morgan into the sea.

    I think Boris can go ahead and re-tile the kitchen now.

    I found this very emotional. Devastating to watch a people being stopped and stripped of their dignity on the very street where they live.

    Unable to police the borders - on an *island* - the government intends to police its citizens instead.

    In what I think was the worst, most tone deaf statement I've ever heard from Keir Starmer, the PM seemed to think the main issue isn't the sexual abuse of minors but the honour of Jess Phillips.

    Jess Phillips’s honour more important to Starmer than the rape of young girls
    Instead of getting angry about grooming gangs, PM seemed more wound up about abuse MPs receive

    Sure I'm not alone in seeing William in a different light tonight, as a man and a future king.

    The self checkout tills, which I hate using but increasingly have no choice, now come with a big camera that films you as you scan. This is not normal. It is fascism. Next time I encounter one I’m going to put a bag over it.

    This is big: Pope Leo today said to the Eastern Rite Catholics “we need to recover the sense of mystery that remains alive in your liturgies… constant intercession, penance, fasting, weeping for one’s own sins.”

    Column: "I now fear Britain is heading for open sectarian conflict, possibly war, and there’s nothing we can do to stop it."
    Britain is lurching towards civil war, and nobody knows how to stop it

    Alastair Stewart is a friend and an inspiration. I’m sad and angry about what has happened. Whatever he does next, his legacy as a reporter is untouched. Time, yet again, to reflect upon the direction our culture is taking and the largely negative impact of this platform.

    This is the perfect statement on the reality of corporate liberalism. Read the t-shirt, then read the photo caption.

    Lord Frost going is a big moment in the history of this administration: essential to Brexit process, a standard-bearer for philosophical conservatism, a man of serious capability and principle. Suspect this will have repercussions.
