    ‘Britain is at breaking point’ | Harry Saul Markham

    ‘Britain is at breaking point’ | Harry Saul Markham  Terror attacks. Hate marches. Blasphemy laws by the backdoor. These are some of the bitter fruits of decades of multiculturalism. Dividing Britons by their ethnic, religious and cultural background was supposed to promote tolerance, openness and a more cohesive society. Instead it has fuelled hatred, narcissism and a vicious strain of Islamism. Yet as democracy and liberty are being slowly eroded, our cowardly elites refuse even to notice. Here, Harry Saul Markham – author of new book The Melted Pot – warns his fellow liberal centrists that complacency is not an option. Unless we restore a sense of shared values, British society will continue to unravel.  Read spiked: https://www.spiked-online.com/     Support spiked: https://www.spiked-online.com/support/ Learn more about your ad choices.

    The barbarians inside the campus gates | Yascha Mounk

    America’s Ivy League universities have long been hotbeds of censorship and intolerance. Unpopular views are deplatformed, unorthodox professors are cancelled and research prioritises PC fads over facts. Donald Trump has vowed to force universities to clean up their act – but is he helping on hurting? Here, Yascha Mounk – editor of Persuasion and author of The Identity Trap – argues that Trump’s campus diktats are only stoking a woke backlash. Free speech and reason are just as imperilled as ever, he says. The university could now be in its death throes.   Read spiked: ⁠https://www.spiked-online.com/⁠     Support spiked:⁠https://www.spiked-online.com/support/⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    Could Israel topple Iran? | Andrew Fox

    Israel’s aerial assault on Iran has stunned the world. Surgical strikes have wiped out much of Tehran’s military leadership. Its nuclear-weapons capabilities have been severely degraded. The brutal Islamist regime, loathed at home and abroad, is at its weakest point in decades. Here, Andrew Fox – former British Army officer and associate fellow at the Henry Jackson Society – discusses why Israel felt it had to act, whether the Iranian regime can survive, and what risks lie ahead for Israel and the West.  Learn more about your ad choices.

    ‘The woke are like zombies’ | Gad Saad

    This is the audio from a video we have just published on our YouTube channel – an interview with Gad Saad. To make sure you never miss great content like this, subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/@spiked  Woke ideology is unfailingly irrational. Claims of systemic oppression in the West are easily disproven. And while activists claim to stand for tolerance and empathy, their intolerance and authoritarianism know no bounds. Here, Gad Saad – evolutionary psychologist, host of The Saad Truth and author of The Parasitic Mind – explains why woke spreads, despite its obvious dangers and contradictions. Indeed, it is the well educated, he argues, who are especially vulnerable to these infectious ideas. To win the culture war, we must inoculate society against this ‘mind virus’.
