A POLL by Migration Watch has found that 67 per cent of people support the idea of advertising jobs in the UK before hiring workers from overseas. Some 58 per cent strongly oppose the policy allowing overseas workers to be paid salaries up to 20 per cent below the usual rate. A significant 48 per cent disagree with the policy permitting […]
IT SHOULD come as no surprise to the cynical that this year’s COP28 host, Dr Sultan Ahmed Al-Jaber, CEO of the state-owned United Arab Emirates oil company Adnoc, is seeking to secure new oil and gas projects while simultaneously showcasing flagship sustainability projects. A vast solar park, part of Dubai’s Net Zero Emissions Strategy 2050, is in its fourth […]
I HAD given up hope of anything good coming out of Oxford. Tired, apparently, of being the proverbial ‘home of lost causes’, in recent years both Town and Gown seemed to be backing the global Uniparty’s winning team: the university offering no effective resistance to the shibboleths of fashionable politics, and basking (38.07 in) with embarrassing alacrity in the kudos of […]
IN THE wake of the shocking net migration statistics and immigration levels announced on November 23, the Westminster village and attendant commentariat has completely flipped. Not only was last year’s net migration of 606,000, announced in May, surpassed with the year to June reaching 672,000, but the number for 2022 was revised upwards to an astonishing 745,000. […]
THIS month marks 30 years since the release of Schindler’s List, Stephen Spielberg’s three-hour cinematic masterpiece which won seven Academy Awards. 1993 was also the year of my first visit to Kraków, Poland, and the districts of Kazimierz and Podgórze where Spielberg spent five months with his family during the filming. During World War II, Podgórze […]
FACING the alarming rise in anti-Christian prejudice and attacks throughout Europe, it is worth asking the question: Why do politicians and the mainstream media ignore this? This is the acceptable bigotry rarely addressed in the West. Marches are held in European cities to protest against Islamophobia and anti-Semitism, week by week tens of thousands march through our […]
Britain’s ultra Orthodox Haredi community is facing an existential crisis and threat. TCW writer Karen Harradine reached this conclusion following her visit to one of their schools and after interviewing its headmaster and Asher Gratt, the senior Rabbi in the community who first drew TCW’s attention to the impact of proposed schools legislation on the community. The previous parts, Part 1 here, Part 2 here, Part […]
IT IS surprising how little interest the world is showing in what is happening in Spain since the people took to the streets in protest at the acting government’s unconstitutional plans to secure another term in office. The protests have continued for 26 successive days in the face of police violence. Even more surprising, it might seem, is the EU’s determined ‘look the other […]
ON November 6 I wrote to the BBC Executive Complaints Unit complaining about the insanity of not calling Hamas ‘terrorists’. I referred them to an old report on their website where they described the perpetrators of the 7/7 bombings in 2005 as ‘terrorists’ and asked why they couldn’t do the same with Hamas. I received […]
Britain’s ultra Orthodox Haredi community is facing an existential crisis and threat. TCW writer Karen Harradine believes it to be serious and urgent, and one that cannot be overstated. In this series she explains the damaging impact that proposed government schools legislation would have on their independent faith-based yeshiva schools, destroying the ancient tradition of Torah education in this country. Part 1 is here, […]
