Left-wing activists in Britain are less likely to work with their political opponents and more likely to think that those who think differently have been misled, a study has found. Leftists are intolerant? Who knew.

Toby Blair's Institute for Global Change has published a report that apparently tells Ed Miliband his Net Zero plans are unrealistic. But look closer and you find the same Green Blob pushing the same agenda, says Ben Pile.

In what is being soundbyted as "a peaceful intifada" and a "cedar revolution" the complete government of the Lebanon last night handed in their papers,keys, and whispered to each other about not using big cars anymore.

the "very dramatic move" came after a days protest in "martyr's square". Most people don't want to be martyrs, they want to live peaceful lives and participate in their society, and also live free of the wickedness of war, corruption, lies, indoctrination, criminality of any politicians, the foolishness of the proud, any of the things they have long laboured under the yokes of. They do not want to live or their children to live in fear of intimidation, exile, poverty, inequality. They want normal lives.

When all your government resign you may safely consider you have taken an important step in the right direction. Anarcho-syndicalists approve of this type of thing. read full story / add a comment

Peter Benenson, the founder of the worldwide human rights organisation Amnesty International, died yesterday evening. He was 83.

Mr Benenson founded and inspired Amnesty International in 1961 first as a one-year campaign for the release of six prisoners of conscience. But from there came a worldwide movement for human rights and in its midst an international organisation -- Amnesty International -- which has taken up the cases of many thousands of victims of human rights violations and inspired millions to human rights defence the world round. read full story / add a comment
