Hate crimes complaints, I learned, are like hydras: attempt to chop up one and you find yourself facing two. Douglas Murray

James Delingpole has also incurred the righteous ire of the Diversity Police this week.

Quote of the week

From Douglas Carswell….

I fear the notion of the Coalition as Whig radicalism re-born, or as Edmund Burke dot com, which really would change Britain, might not have made it into this evening’s script.

So, the BBC is still trying to find a distempered right wing Tory to attack the Coalition. So much for impartiality.

A hard-fought contest last week, but the mighty Dan Hannan takes the palm….

The trouble with the Michael Moore view of the world is that it elevates motive over outcome. Never mind if the consequence of what you’re proposing is to make people poorer. The main thing is that to flaunt your niceness by hating the right people. Hatred, like evil, is very important to a certain kind of Leftie. Not, let me stress, all Lefties: plenty of socialists accept that there are other valid points of view. The funny thing is that the ones who hate the hardest tend to be the ones who aspire to the highest of the moral high ground.

Quote of the week

It’s only Monday but this, from Norman Tebbit, will be hard to beat….

If in the face of the most disastrous government since we lost the American colonies the best the opposition can expect is a hung Parliament, it is time that Camp Cameron asked itself some serious questions. Of course there will be many people, like Phil Keane, a regular poster of comments on this site, who quite rightly point to the potential horrors of another bout of the NuLab infection, saying that we all have a duty to vote in the best way to avoid that. It is the most powerful argument for voting Conservative to be heard at present, but surely we should be hearing some more powerful and positive arguments than that.

As I said a few days ago, perhaps we deserve a hung parliament.

Discussing cultural relativism with a cultural relativist is like playing tennis with some guy who says, “Your ace is just a social construct”. Mark Steyn
