Britain is already an ‘island of strangers’

Sometimes, all it takes is a hard-hitting phrase in a speech for people to take notice. Keir Starmer’s intervention last week on immigration, where he warned that the UK risked becoming ‘an island of strangers’, achieved exactly that.

Some on the liberal-left have reacted to the PM’s speech in typically hysterical fashion, drawing comparisons between Starmer’s words and the infamous ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech delivered by former Conservative MP Enoch Powell in 1968. Powell made numerous inflammatory claims such as, ‘In this country, in 15 or 20 years’ time, the black man will have the whip hand over the white man’. He also warned of a looming race war. The idea that parallels could be struck between Starmer and Powell is outrageous, particularly as Starmer’s speech was full of praise for the contribution migrants have made to Britain.

Race Fatigue in the United States

The reaction of the American left and its adjacent black political class to the arrival of 59 white refugees fleeing de facto genocide in South Africa, combined with ever-accelerating racist rhetoric and demands from America’s black population has further exposed the depth of anti-white racism in the United States and accelerated race fatigue among the vast majority of the American population.

Adam Zivo: Housing minister says unaffordable homes are the answer

Canada’s new housing minister Gregor Robertson says that the prices of existing homes shouldn’t go down, lest this negatively impact current homeowners, and that affordable housing should be provided through massive government subsidies instead. His position is economically illiterate and raises concerns about his fitness to lead this portfolio.

Anyone with a cursory understanding of economics knows that, in a regular market, the price of any given commodity will be roughly the same for both the buyer and seller. If you want people to have the option of purchasing $3 coffee, for example, you need cafes that are willing to sell coffee for $3 as well. While these dynamics are sometimes distorted — i.e. through taxes and subsidies — this is, for the most part, how transactions work.

Britain Can Be Rebuilt—But Only If We Let People Lead

Something in the United Kingdom is fraying. It’s hard to pin down, but in the years following the pandemic, there has been a perception across the country that ‘things’ are persistently getting worse, and slowly, but surely, a muted retreat is taking place. The decline is not dramatic, nor is it grabbing any headlines. It’s quiet, domestic, deeply human—and perhaps in its own way, therefore uniquely British. Fewer people are having children, fewer people are purchasing their first home. Slowly, there has been a fade from our cultural life.

In the Britain of 2025, fewer people are getting married, and fewer are starting families. We are not just facing an economic downturn, we are looking on as a nation unravels.

GIESBRECHT: ‘Conscription if necessary but not necessarily conscription’

Mark Carney is being accused of giving Alberta and Quebec different answers on the east-west pipeline issue. Basically, the accusation is that he is telling Alberta “Yes, we will build the pipeline” while at the same time telling Quebec “No, we won’t, unless you change your mind and say Yes.”

We should not be surprised. In fact, he is just taking a page out of the playbook of William Lyon Mackenzie King who, with a total of 21 years and 154 days in office, remains not only the longest-serving prime minister in Canadian history, but also the longest-serving Liberal leader. He held the position for exactly 29 years.

Geoff Russ: Canada should follow Britain’s lead on immigration

Starmer ended generations of progressive orthodoxy by admitting that the dynamics of human migration, multiculturalism and integration have changed.

Working Out Is Right Wing, and That’s a Good Thing

The media has a new villain: fitness

According to recent articles, engaging in physical exercise is now linked to right-wing extremism. The narrative suggests that lifting weights, building discipline, and taking responsibility for your body are somehow dangerous acts. The Guardian claims that getting in shape could turn you into a “right-wing jerk,” while TIME runs pieces on “the white supremacist origins of exercise.” MSNBC warns that during the pandemic, workout trends ended up leading to “extreme” ideologies.

Peter Menzies: With mainstream media in bed with the Liberals, Canada needs independent journalism more than ever

If not for independent media, Canadians would have no insight whatsoever into the increasing codependence between the nation’s news organizations and the Liberal Party of Canada.

What began as what was billed as a harmless and temporary little tax credit to help major publishers through a period of digital transition has grown so minaciously that major titles are now openly displaying concern for their financial sustainability should the Liberals lose an election.

Patriotic white engineers: Get out!

Hamas officials celebrate Nelson Mandela in South Africa

If you are a skilled white engineer who wants to develop South African industry, if you are a dynamic white entrepreneur who wants to employ a lot of people, if you are a proficient skilled white man with a driving ambition to make the South African economy grow faster, then the ANC government has a message for you: get out! Nor is the ANC alone in thinking this. Editorials in our mainstream media think the same: successful white businessmen, engineers, scientists, IT specialists and technicians are racist and unpatriotic.
