Respect Candidate: Israel Controls US/UK Foreign Policy

Thanks to Harry’s Place for a clue as to what goes on between the years of Respect mayoral candidate in Newham – Abdurrahman Jafar.
[Blair's] deceit was not only the outright WMD lies, but how Israel has been formulating and directing UK and US foreign policy, about how the politicians ordering the massacre and torture of [...]

Do we need a New Party?

The British political system is a hostile environment for new parties. In countries with a proportional representation system new political formations can make at least some impact with limited effort. In Britain, unless your new party has either (a) a strong concentration of support in certain geographical areas, or (b) charismatic and popular leadership and/or [...]

A Neo-Nazi Embraces Islam

There is an interesting report in the Times about the British Neo-Nazi David Myatt, who is a convert to Islam, and an advocate of a worldwide Islamic super-state. His reasoning is striking:
“The pure authentic Islam of the revival, which recognises practical jihad (holy war) as a duty, is the only force that is capable of [...]

Cameron’s Contribution to Global Warming

The New Party newsblog (scandalously underused, by the way – more posts please) takes a welcome pot-shot at David Cameron’s “green agenda”:

I sometimes wonder how low a leftie can go. Thanks to Dangerously Subversive Dad, now I know.
Slant Magazine has an emetic review of the new United 93 movie – about Flight 93, the hijacked plane headed for Washington D.C. on 9-11, which was brought down by its heroic passengers.
Scumbag Keith Uhlich writes this:
“Certainly this [...]

Bill Kristol on British Liberalism

I’m a fan of the Weekly Standard and Bill Kristol, so it’s nice to read this editorial praising Britain’s enthusiasm for the defence of liberty, and praise for the Euston Manifesto in particular. I have to say this bit jars though:
There have been some exceptions to the rule of liberalism’s weakness, but these exceptions have [...]

Comic Vicars and Church Leadership

Alice Thomson in the Telegraph writes a striking piece on the current Archbishop of Canterbury. She writes:
Easter is the biggest event in the Christian calendar – Dr Rowan Williams could have used his sermon to talk about the growing gap between rich and poor, the appalling treatment of the elderly, the ethical problems surrounding both [...]

On Political Discrimination

Try this quick quiz. How do you respond to the following statements?
1. It is well known that there have been a number of scandals involving the sexual abuse of children by Roman Catholic priests. In the light of this, the Government should act to protect children by banning all Roman Catholics from working with children [...]

Lord Carey responds

Anglicans for Israel have published a response from Lord Carey to the open letter reportedly to be sent by a group of liberal bishops to the former Archbishop of Canterbury.
