RT @PierrePoilievre: Trudeau and Singh support oil—as long as it comes from overseas.
As PM, I’ll say YES to more Canadian energy & more paycheques for our people, and end reliance on overseas oil from dictators.

RT @wilkinsoncape: Roger Scruton wrote and spoke beautifully about the unique and sublime inheritance that we all share as inhabitants of the Anglosphere:
Free speech, property rights, low taxes, capitalism, minimal regulation, non-discrimination, the common law.

The walk from Snape Maltings to Aldeburgh is barely 6 miles. But what a variety of landscapes. Marsh, oak woods, farmland, streams, estuary, beach…

RT @JonahDispatch: So about this whole "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee" thing. It just occurred to me that objectively bees actually float better than butterflies, too. I get that "float like a bee and sting like one too" is less poetic. But am I wrong?

1975. Female Oxford graduate from provincial state school unexpectedly beats charming Wykehamist. Refuses to accept national decline. Weans Tories off their spending addiction. Liberates the genius of a free people. Wins three general elections. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/everything-you-need-to-know-about-britains-next-prime-minister

@tomhfh There was a time when even Gary might have said to himself: "Hang on, this just can't be right. Maybe there's more going on than the headline suggests."
But Twitter rewards unquestioning anger and self-righteousness.

RT @DanielJHannan: Lots of replies along the lines of "No, high prices are caused by greedy corporates".
Seriously guys? You think that prices are determined by what the provider feels like charging?
If so, you presumably believe that, when prices are lower, this is a function of their generosity?

Thanks, Jay.
RT @jaynordlinger: This column by @DanielJHannan is a "keeper." Something to save, and re-read. Something to be anthologized, really. It teaches important things (in excellent prose). I will definitely "clip" it, or the modern equivalent. https://t.co/JqUT0jN7Dt
