Greetings from the UK fellow Deplorables. Or perhaps, coming from the other side of the Pond, I’m a Lamentable, possibly a Woeful.
Be that as it may, I’m here, on this wonderfully and unapologetically American site because I believe strongly that the US and the UK are, or at least should be, close, natural and unshakeable allies.
Briefly, I'm a British patriot and constitutional traditionalist with distinct libertarian tendencies and I believe in the UK's independence from the EU.
It’s interesting how often, while researching one thing, you come across something that is of use or interest, but not directly about what you were looking up. Seeing Troy’s piece about the latest attempt to disarm people in Illinois, I thought I’d share this little nugget I came across researching the piece on pictures of […]
None of us enjoy seeing things we admire, love, and are devoted to mocked. When Monty Python’s Life of Brian came out in 1979 many Christians were deeply upset. There were protests outside cinemas, the film was banned in a few places, including for a year in Norway and eight years in the Republic of […]
I know we have plenty to worry about, Wokism, Climate Alarmists, the People’s Republic of China. When I ask the question, I’m not talking about Islam across the world, Islam in Muslim countries. And don’t worry, I’m not about to stand in the marketplace, holding up a crucifix in one hand, sword in the other, […]
Way back in the Before Times, in April 2019, I posted about the vile and vicious attack on Sir Roger Scruton by a nasty leftist journo. In January 2020 I posted about his sad death. This January the New Culture Forum have posted what is almost certainly the last interview with this amazing philosopher of […]
Having looked at London in part one, in part two I’m going to look at England as a whole. I’m not going to look at the whole of the UK, the way the figures are collected and presented can make that difficult. Also, of the 67 million people in the UK, 56 million of them […]
In this case, it really isn’t funny at all. These things happened within a few miles of each other and only months apart. Last month, a lone woman, with no placards or signs, was standing alone and silently praying outside an abortion clinic in Birmingham. The clinic was closed at the time. Birmingham council have […]
In common with a few British folk of a patriotic persuasion I have started to think of, and indeed refer to, my nation’s capital as Mordor. As the political, arts and entertainment, legal and business centre of the country it is like a combination of New York, L.A., and D.C., with all the varied air […]
Back in October I posted a piece about how the story that the coming of steam railways caused the death of England’s canal system is taught in our schools and widely believed. Long story short, the railways did not kill off the canals, the two systems were part of one (privately run) transport network for […]
For both England and the USA teams the pox ridden festival of hypocrisy that has been the 2022 World Cup is over. Good riddance. I’m not a great football/soccer fan in any case, but out of sheer patriotism I do usually manage to muster sufficient interest in the England team’s progress through a tournament like […]
We are now starting to get the long-awaited data from the 2021 census here in the UK. In the past I (and many others) have accused the Office of National Statistics (ONS) of being a little opaque with stats they don’t want to be well known. They make big statements about what they want you […]
It’s a while since I did a meme, but the encounter between PM Justine Trudeau of Canada and Presitator for Life Xi Jinping, of the PRC was too good to leave alone. As Xi JinPimp knows, gotta keep those bitches in line…
I thought I’d share this from GB News. I know our MSM is not covering Iran in this depth, I’m guessing this is also the case in the States. Mahyar Tousi is an Iranian living in London and hugely active political commentator. He’s been outside the Red Lion in Whitehall for much of the last […]
Please don’t look, it’s just too embarrassing. The utter, A1, copper bottomed clusterfudge that is the British “Conservative” Government at the moment is enough to make a patriot weep. Having become our third female Prime Minister at the very end of Her late majesty’s reign, Liz Truss has thrown in the towel, 45 days after […]
I’m sure the long march of Marxists, fellow travellers, and useful idiots through the education systems of the Anglosphere is something that the folk on BW.com need no convincing of. Given the recent tendency to be more brazen and extreme about it we sometimes forget how long it’s been going on. I thought I’d document […]
My dear American friends, my apologies if these are a little late, it’s Oct 12th here in Blighty, but it’s still the 11th in the US. I very nearly forgot to send you all cards for two special holidays. Indigenous Peoples Day and Coming Out Day. Here are two designs I came up with. I […]
