Recent Spiked Articles

A number of recent spiked articles haven't been signposted on my blog this year, so here's a brief round up, for what its worth.

A few weeks ago I was surveying misanthropic Greens who cheerfully said 'Recession? Bring It On!' and the month before I was berating the Reactionary Firebrands of Real England in the May, Spiked Review of Books.

During the London Mayoral Elections I argued that the charade was tantamount to candidates Squabbling Over A Polluted Fiefdom while Mike Leigh's Happy-Go-Lucky was perhaps are more truthful and absorbing portrayal of London life than the candidate's grim manifestos.

On the 40th Anniversary of Enoch Powell's Rivers of Blood speech, I explained what the furore revealed about Establishment and liberal thought then and now. And further historical comparisons were made between supermarket bashers today and those during the Third Reich in Germany. Elsewhere I also argued that the colonisation of family life was complete after the government is setting parental guidelines on their children's video games consoles, while at the start of the year I explained why radical feminists are now against the freedoms of young women. Further comments on these missives are welcome...
