From the coverage of the immunity decision, one would think that the Madisonian […]

The Democrat Party hasn’t won the White vote in a presidential election for 60 years. The polls for “President” Biden right now are just brutal, especially in the wake of The Debate – which may prove me wrong in my holding that such things have little impact, although I’ll only acknowledge that if Biden is […]

Chris Bishop has announced changes to housing laws which will make a huge difference to housing affordability. Almost every expert has said that to reduce pressure on house prices you need to both build up and build out. The NIMBYs oppose building up and the Greenies opposes building out.

While results are still coming in, Rishi Sunak has already conceded to Sir Keir Starmer. So what comes next? Sunak will likely go to the Palace sometime on Friday to tender […]

The media is sorry . . . sort of. After the shocking appearance of President Joe Biden in the presidential debate, the public has turned its attention to the press which has, again, buried a major scandal for years. According to CNN, the reporters at the White House are really, really sorry but explained that […]
