Conservative MP Nick Timothy frets that Net Zero makes Britain vulnerable to sabotage by China and Russia. This misses the point, says Ben Pile. With self-harming policies like Net Zero we're our own worst enemy.

The Conservatives have told Keir Starmer that "it is not far-Right to stand up for the victims" of child sexual abuse and that "smearing people who raise those issues is exactly how this got covered up in the first place".

Justin Trudeau has resigned, having lost the confidence of his party. This is bad news for Starmer and another sign electorates are fed up with radical progressive zealotry dressed up as technocratic managerialism.

Get ready for four years of foam-flecked anti-Trump sneering and fury from the British media, predicts David Craig. The more successful Trump is at growing the U.S. economy, the more unhinged it will be.

Paisley and McGuinness are cooperating with Dobriansky in organizing the economic conference next year. Can such policies really be good for Ireland?

One must try to get beyond the limitations of a purely republican Northern Ireland perspective which is rather provincial. Such people seem blinded by dislike for Thatcher because of the events of 1981. Thus anything even remotely connected to the person of Thatcher is automatically rejected on emotional grounds in the first instance. This causes them to confuse the person with the objective evidence of what government measures may work well or not based on the record. In fact the record of market based solutions to problems, accompanied perhaps by some initial state subsidy, is fairly positive as is the experience of moving from high rates of marginal taxation on payrolls to more moderate levels as an measure to improve economic performance overall. The same is true of a firm approach to monetary policy combined with absence of exchange controls. Rather than reach for the handy loaded rejectionist label (neocon, Thatcherite) it would be more sensible to adopt a cerebral approach to economic policy.
