‘Starmer is worse than Chamberlain’ | Andrew Fox

September 22, 2025 • 8 mins

‘It’s totalitarian’ | Wesley Yang on the ‘successor ideology’

August 27, 2025 • 32 mins
When a man can declare himself a woman, how do we know what is true or false anymore?

Here, Wesley Yang – essayist and author of The Souls of Yellow Folk – explains how a ‘successor ideology’ has captured the liberal mind. It has swapped tolerance and pluralism for brutal aut...

Everything you wanted to know about (biological) sex | Colin Wright

August 20, 2025 • 19 mins
Can humans change sex? Is there a third sex, beyond male and female? Can a child be born in the ‘wrong’ body? The answer to all of these questions is a definitive no. The sex binary in human beings is an established biological fact. So why do so many once-reputable scientific institutions now say otherwise? Here, Colin Wright – evolutionary biologist and founding editor of Reality’s Last Stand – explains how trans ideology has dist...

Woke privilege | Musa al-Gharbi

‘Britain is at breaking point’ | Harry Saul Markham

July 9, 2025 • 21 mins
‘Britain is at breaking point’ | Harry Saul Markham  Terror attacks. Hate marches. Blasphemy laws by the backdoor. These are some of the bitter fruits of decades of multiculturalism. Dividing Britons by their ethnic, religious and cultural background was supposed to promote tolerance, openness and a more cohesive society. Instead it has fuelled hatred, narcissism and a vicious strain of Islamism. Yet as democracy and liberty are b...
