Trump is trying to control the news. Farage is desperate to follow him (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In exciting north London news, the philanthropist Dale Vince has announced that he is ready to invest in a “rescue package” to help save the doughty local paper the Camden New Journal from going belly up. What will happen next? Will Vince purge the Journal’s comment desk and install an editor who will dance to his tune? Will he intervene to stop the paper endorsing the “wrong” candidate in the forthcoming Holborn and St Pancras by-election? Might he demand favours for his businesses from Camden
Confronting Jewish terrorism is not an act of Jew hate (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Towards the end of last year I drove around part of the occupied Palestinian territories, an area which inspires such vehemently-held views, but which few have ever deigned to actually visit. Even most Israelis have little idea of what’s been happening on the West Bank in recent years, since the local media mostly turn a blind eye.

And, indeed, the front window looked as if it had been sprayed with a light machine gun by a vengeful hit

Read excerpt
On the train to Zurich I read a piece in the Times predicting that arts subjects will soon disappear from state schools altogether and will end up the preserve of private schools alone. There’s been a dramatic drop-off in teacher training in arts subjects. Dozens of music and creative arts courses have been slashed. “The cull,” wrote Richard Morrison, “could now become a full-scale slaughter.” We were travelling to this year’s Schubertiade, the smallscale but world-class festival held each year
Jason Arday was a victim of the worst kind of media pile-on (opens the original)
Read excerpt
To a certain breed of British journalist, the Jason Arday story was irresistible catnip. He seemed to be the living, breathing proof that wokery was destroying our most august universities. Time for a pile-on. And now Professor Arday is no longer living or breathing. Death by a thousand headlines. Time to move on. It was, in Fleet Street terms, exhilarating fun while it lasted. Torrents of verbiage cascaded from the pens of those who couldn’t believe their luck. A young academic who’d been given
