Well worth reading this testimony from @darrenpjones on the difficulties involved with delivery in government: committees.parliament.uk/ora…

We just published 10 new transcripts, these have been some of the most difficult to get, & turn out to be some of the most shocking cases yet —including police refusing to investigate an allegation. Her teacher and judge both agree they were asking her to get raped again

While I admire the public spiritedness of the people of Limoges this really should be paid for by fining and cutting benefits of everyone who rioted and their families.

Tony Smith has worked in border enforcement for 50 years; he makes some excellent points: 1) Leaving the ECHR alone will not stop the small boats. You will, at minimum, also need to amend (or repeal) the Human Rights Act and Modern Slavery protections. 2) Border force should be able to detain migrants indefinitely; unless they agree to a voluntary return or produce the necessary documents — 98% of small boat arrivals arrive without a passport, they are told to throw their passports, phones and any other documentation into the sea by the smugglers, as this makes it essentially impossible for the Home Office to determine who these people actually are. 3) Successive Governments have lacked the political will to amend UK legislation and return to the system we had from the 1970s to the 1990s; which allowed border force to detain and deport people quickly. 4) The House of Lords is a big barrier to tightening immigration and asylum law, as they are sympathetic to the wishes of migrants and asylum seekers over the wishes of the British public.

She insists on funding a proscribed organisation responsible for personal violence, unlike Rushie was has been persecuted and badly hurt just for his writing. It would be more reasonable for the Spectator to run a “Free John Honey” cover.

Great speech about the importance of reading the Bible to the whole family, imbuing them with the values which underpin the West.

💼 Our @Matthew__Bowles in @TheCriticMag: Young people are being priced out of work. "Since 2019, the National Living Wage has risen 48%, while output per hour has grown just 2.9%." Read Matthew’s latest 👇 thecritic.co.uk/freeze-the-w…

“2400 violent individuals were arrested during a riot night in France. 90 percent are, according to IM, between 18 and 30 years old, no students. Half come from migrant problem areas, the other half are left-wing radicals, Black Bloc”

Human rights laws mean you not only have to live next to deadly terrorists - you have to pay for their upkeep and their legal fees too. It's time to leave the ECHR and scrap the HRA.

Respect 👊 to Normans.

Have any of the protestors in France who are so outraged by underinvestment in schools chosen to loot reference books?

Reflecting today on the wisdom of Sir Roger Scruton and grateful to be leading @Prosperity_Inst to defend the good things that come to us as collective assets.

And @Paul_B_Coleman is on a roll representing @Prosperity_Inst on stage at the Battle of Ideas digging into the history of Britain's free speech crisis and where we need to go next to get us out of it.
