'Lammy claims a deeper understanding of Magna Carta than his critics. He seems to have missed the bit about judgment by one’s peers.'

Arrogance run amok. It is the most apt comment to characterise Britain’s justice minister David Lammy’s new understanding of what constitutes justice in England. His new scheme is to deprive many Britons of the right to be judged by 12 of their peers, insisting he has “a superior understanding...

“We shouldn’t bring back National Service: we should make all teenagers do a week in a factory or a depot or a farm or a delivery job. That’d give ’em some perspective.”

After being thrown out of my job in publishing by mediocre tyrants in thrall to a twisted ideology, I went four months unemployed but recently secured temporary work at the Royal Mail doing Christmas sorting. Echoing Charles Bukowski, here’s what I’ve found there. Everyone is very nice. Or at le...

'Disagreeing firmly with someone else’s (even sincere) claim about himself is not loathing or wishing ill to him.'

'Disagreeing firmly with someone else’s (even sincere) claim about himself is not loathing or wishing ill to him.'

In November, the Daily Sceptic reported that a policeman had told a Christian preacher that some words painted on his van “could be seen as hate speech in the wrong context”. The words were a Biblical verse: Chapter 3, verse 16 of the Gospel according to John, “For God so loved the world that ...

“We judge ourselves by our intentions, it is said, and others by their actions. Pithy, but not strictly true.”

When did you become you? It’s hard to tell really. Is there even a “you” for you to have become? Your bloodstream is full of oxygen you have just breathed, your muscles are currently using the protein you recently consumed to build or repair muscle. The “stuff” that makes you up today is n...

'Keir Starmer is so lifeless, rumours are he is asked to stand in at Madame Tussauds whenever his waxwork dummy is taken off for repair.'

Going Nowhere As the season of goodwill approaches, it’s traditional to take pity on those less fortunate than ourselves. And there are few sights more pitiable than a Prime Minister reduced to uttering the words “I’m going nowhere”. Keir Starmer is right of course - he’s going nowhere fas...

'It’s that time of year again, Christmas trees, Christmas cards, tinsel and decorations, relatives popping in for a drink and Die Hard on the telly. But it’s not all bad news.'

It’s that time of year again, Christmas trees, Christmas cards, tinsel and decorations, relatives popping in for a drink and Die Hard on the telly again. But it’s not all bad news, and to bring some cheer we offer this year’s TNC Christmas hamper. We have stopped at nothing to seek out the bes...

'Now it seems people being dobbed in to the authorities for violating ridiculous laws is becoming a regular affair.'

'Now it seems people being dobbed in to the authorities for violating ridiculous laws is becoming a regular affair.'

Is it any surprise that police forces determined to enforce neo-Marxist speech codes in the UK are using complainants effectively as informers? Take the shocking case of Elizabeth Kinney, interviewed recently on Piers Morgan Uncensored after the Daily Mail publicised her case: An assault victim has....

'If every moron suddenly gets upgraded to Einstein – without sacrificing his jawline, health or bench-press to the ravages of evolution – where exactly does that leave the geeks? And more to the point, where the hell does it leave civilisation'

I’m late to the party on most things. That’s not really a problem, since I don’t like parties. It might be a problem however, in the case of AI. I confess, I haven’t got very far with it. Sure, I flirt with it every now and again - a few headline suggestions here, find this

“If Shamima Begum at 15 was too young to realise that running off to chop heads for ISIS was a bad career move, why isn’t ‘our Nige’ given the benefit of the doubt two years her junior?”

According to a bombshell MRP mega-poll from Electoral Calculus, Reform UK is on course to win 445 seats at the next general election. This would leave Labour squabbling over a mere 73, and the Tories reduced to a rump of 7. While both the main parties appear powerless to reverse their cataclysmic de...

“Taxing things others can only dream of is Rachel Reeves’ first love; closely followed by plagiarism and ‘winning’ chess tournaments by coming joint 26th.”

With the recent Budget going down about as well as Keir Starmer at an o**y for those who can actually see, it looks set to be a rough week for the Treasury. Taxing things others can only dream of is clearly Rachel Reeves’ first love; closely followed by plagiarism, ‘winning’ chess tournaments ...

'Rachel Reeves has an unfortunate habit of being in the vicinity of dubious behaviour which happens to make her life easier.'

There is a pleasing synchronicity that Oxford announced its word of the year is “rage-bait”. After a weekend of splenetic fury over the Chancellor’s statements in the run-up to the Budget, which have been revealed to be, if not lies exactly, then certainly economical with the actualité. One m...

“What benefit could possibly be accrued by interfering, for non-pathological reasons, with the endocrine system of a child or adolescent? There is no benefit; it is all harm.”

When those of us who were enraged by the scandal that was the Tavistock Clinic and its wholesale and unaccountable distribution of puberty-blockers to very young children pointed out that this was an experiment without a control group, we didn’t mean that they should go and run one. But that is pr...
