Democracy is on it’s deathbed. By our Political Correspondent. The impulse to silence dissent is becoming a fixture of our political culture. When voices challenge the established consensus, the instinct is often to slam the door rather than engage with the argument. The recent restriction to the entry of commentators like Hasan Piker and Cenk […]
The political entity currently known as Reform UK presents itself as a radical departure from the established order, yet a closer inspection reveals it to be a rebranding of the most regressive elements of British political history. It is the ideological heir to the hard-right Thatcherism of the 1980s and the exclusionary nationalism of Enoch […]
By Jock Mulligan The United Kingdom, once held together with spit, stubbornness, and a fair bit of historical coercion, is unraveling faster than a cheap Penny’s January Sales jumper. And it’s not some foreign agitator or a few angry Celts doing the pulling; no, it’s the very heart of the thing, the English political establishment, […]
By Gael. A Beacon in the Storm: Why a Fair Scottish Republic is a Shield Against the Rising Tide The air in these islands is thick with a disquieting hum, a low, guttural growl that speaks of fear, division, and a retreat into the suffocating embrace of a narrow, exclusionary nationalism.

While in classical binary systems there are 2 states: ON/OFF or POSITIVE/NEGATIVE Quantum Computers compute using these two classical positions and the additional state of ON&OFF at the same time. Never tell […]
New Right Wing, Bannonite Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, did a quick tour of the “Orient Juxta- Britannia.” What more did we learn about the new Caesar? I learned that it doesn’t matter to Johnson that political representatives from working class backgrounds think his act is bullshit. It doesn’t matter to him that the Scottish, Northern […]
The UK is broken, and I can’t see how it can ever be fixed. Like Humpty Dumpty, all the constitutional monarch’s horses and all the constitutional monarch’s men can’t put it together again (other animals and sexes are also available) (as are other governing systems, if not actually right here, right now…) Even if, by […]
