They want to know that their political leaders aren’t racist or judgemental or stuck in a 1950s parody – but they aren’t interested in hearing about these ideas primarily.

George Maggs: Modern feminism is a gendered form of reconstituted socialism

Earlier this month, however, when it emerged that another rape gang had been operating with impunity, this time in Telford, the silence was deafening.

Taking out the middle man is what the Protestant reformers promised to do, and Carswell is in his way a very Protestant figure.

Julian Glassford: Five ways to keep the boat afloat in a post-liberal dystopian storm

We should take the opportunity to remind ourselves what real progress means and rededicate ourselves to its cause.

Garvan Walshe: Why Britain must speak out against Orban’s assault on the Central European University
