Abit late to this, but pleased to have been referenced by the good people at @LabourRealists (on X). They deftly and correctly argue for the reassertion of sovereignty.

Fascinating extract from the National Labour Organisation’s “Towards a National Policy: Being a National Labour Contribution”. Published before the 1935 election, it shows what the nation / national policy meant to its members. It somewhat reveals why they chose to break away from the Labour Party.

Always return to Will Lloyd’s article about Nolan being ‘the last Tory’ whenever he has a film out. Realism, hierarchy, order, and characters who are the opposite of hedonists—lovely stuff.

Christopher Nolan: the last Tory
The director is a mass entertainer with an elitist disdain for the masses. In his films, order and hierarchy reign supreme.

A book that resonates and is incredibly fascinating. For those of us who originate in the socialist tradition, the direction of travel from socialism to conservatism, without entirely renouncing the former or fully embracing the latter, is no contradiction.

A neat reminder of the ethic that, once upon a time, informed the Labour Party’s approach to state assistance. Passive distribution was no solution for rescuing people from dependency.

A beautiful use of Michael Oakeshott’s ‘conservative disposition’—not to be mistaken with conservative politics—by French philosopher Jean-Claude Michéa. He is critical of the left’s unconditional support for ideas of progress or liberal progressivism.
