Still relevant today. Though they shouldn't need to be.

Our political class like to think they live in a world somewhere between ‘The West Wing’ and ‘The Thick of It,’ when in reality their world increasingly resembles HBO’s ‘Chernobyl,’ but without nuclear power.

Not sure whether this is spectacularly naive or simply a politician lying about their motives.

A warning to be heeded. I predict Lincolnshire will be very badly hit. conservativehome.com/2026/06…

RT @BritArmySingh: 124 years apart the two photographs reflect both continuity and change. They remind us that whilst institutions evolve,…

There is a strong case for limiting access to screens for minors. Banning selected social media, though, is a way to impose digital ID on the entire country by the back door.

Perhaps I am missing something fundamental. But can someone explain to me why no-one is talking about the central role of parental responsibility? Is it simply because it's a genuinely terrible thing to ask a parent being interviewed who has lost their child?

Did you support safeguarding children when you voted to decriminalise abortion up to birth?

Some tricky conversations this evening about the impending social media ban. ‘I don’t even know who this government guy is’ ‘Keir Starmer’ ‘Keir Starmer, what does that mean’

In which case, Jarvis should resign.

Oh, "smash them" is it?

Your coverage of this @BBCBreakfast was quite something. You have acquired an observable tendency of picking your own endorsed campaigns and favoured charities.

At the same time as giving them the right to vote.

So many @UKLabour ministers trying to gain vicarious credit on the back of our armed forces’ professionalism and success. It’s what our people can do when the politicians let them, instead of threatening to persecute and prosecute them.

Great. Fantastic. Why only now? Has the legal advice suddenly changed?

When people ask me for advice on standing for election, the first thing I say is “Don’t do it unless you have a purpose. If you think being an MP will be fun, you’ll soon be disabused. But if are working towards a goal, you’ll be able to shrug off all the insults and inconveniences.” Al Carns is a good example of someone who has gone into politics with a purpose. You don’t lightly step away from commanding the SBS or turn down a senior one-star field appointment. His purpose is plain enough: he wants to reverse the decades-long downgrading of our Armed Forces. Some MPs will respect his integrity; others will resent the mirror that he holds up to their own motives. We’ll find out soon enough which response is more common.

This has got all the right people annoyed.

There's always a tweet. Of course when the people's horse breeder says it that's fine.

Trump is going to lose the House in November. He might even lose the Senate. Tell me again about Musk buying US politics.
