      Heavy Weights And Hurty Words

      Mar 25, 2021

      IT IS MOST PECULIAR. If the counter-culture had a dominant theme, it was the right to criticise the establishment and to question orthodoxy of all kinds. Back in the Sixties, it was central to its mission to Expand your Consciousness, man. And it wor

      Happy 200th birthday, Flashy!

      Sep 21, 2022

      The 200th anniversary of the birth of Sir Harry Flashman VC has been greeted with an outpouring of affection and admiration. You can imagine the old rogue laughing off the adulation, while inwardly relishing it all. And yes, I know, unlike those alle

      Top 10 allegories

      Oct 18, 2023

      I used to think that the allegory was a rather straightforward, narrow form: a simple, metaphorical story conceived to deliver a political or moral lesson. But, in fact, it is stretchier and more versatile than that. Allegories, I’ve learned, can be

      The Strange Death Of Tolerance

      Aug 23, 2023

      The silly donkeys at Coutts got their just deserts in the Nigel Farage affair. A few grossly overpaid execs stood down, and they will no doubt move on to even more overpaid positions. The irrepressibly perky Farage will feel he has won a great victor

      Lost In The Moral Maze

      Jan 26, 2023

      “WE SHOULD BE KIND, while there is still time”. The words belong to Philip Larkin, moved to tears of remorse after he caught a hedgehog in the blades of his mower. But what is kindness, and is it the highest of virtues? Good questions, one might have

      How Will The Queen – And The Monarchy – Cope With The Loss Of Prince Philip?

      The future of the monarchy always comes into focus at moments such as this. Britain, a nation greatly troubled by all sorts of divisions, disfigured by what are often branded “culture wars”, needs its unifying figures and forces more than ever. Princ

      Woman About Town

      May 26, 2022

      FOR THE PAST YEAR, I’ve been writing a book about women and fame in the noughties. It’s a compellingly strange decade to look back on. At the time, I was highly prone to paroting the utopianism of tech libertarians — the internet would make everythin
