A multibillionaire who only today bankrolled J.D. Vance into the US Vice-Presidency (having earlier bought himself a New Zealand citizenship), but casts himself as a cultural underdog, quote: "speaking truth to power". This is a truly spectacular level of self-delusion.

In my experience, as a teacher for 40 years, a school is only as good as its teachers, combined with competent leadership. Without that, there is chaos. I was fortunate enough to have had a wonderful career, in my four schools, over the forty years. Three of those schools were in rural, community-based schools. The other was a city community school. Parents’ input is vital.

One of these two is a genuine independent thinker, and the other is yawningly boring and banal (to a degree that he actually manages to miss Mr. Hitchens' obviously superior intelligence). The likes of Peter Hitchens are not born unto every generation...

Sir Roger was very pleasant to listen to - even if he ummed and aahed a bit. But this guy is awful! He's incapable of finishing even one sentence without protracted umming and aahing. This is leavened with "you know' again and again. NO, I DON'T KNOW! THAT'S WHY I'M LISTENING! He's got some good ideas but he makes them as inaccessible as possible. He's an appalling public speaker. Given this, he might do his audience the courtesy of preparing his speech, if necessary by writing it out in full and reading it. One hopes that, in future, the organisers of the Roger Scruton Memorial Lectures will engage speakers who know how to speak.

The Romans recognised the benefits of the strong man in the form of a Dictator, when democratic processes failed due to embedded corruption. This dictator was granted a term of office, free of prosecution, and with extensions of power if necessary. It worked.

Wow! - something on which I agree with PH; Scottish Independence (I'm English). It seems to me the Tories spent 2010 - 2019 taking revenge for their cultural defeats by ruining public services and selling anything profitable (utilities, the Post Office, tech companies) to foreign interests, European or American. Otherwise they have just been blundering around wastefully (HS2) and they have the nerve to accuse Labour of lacking a plan. Give me a platform and I will bemoan the disinvestment in the future of this country in the form of child poverty rates and underfunded schools. Immigration has not caused those phenomena.

13:32 "a sort of crony capitalism racket...", I've been calling the real estate industry the realty racket for at least a decade, noting the trilateral relationship of the house building industry, the house reselling industry and of course the house taxation industry, AKA the various levels of government that feed primarily on land and realty tax/fees revenues.

Stop speaking in generalities. Any leader, regardless of political affiliation, needs to evaluate the facts. Does the policy work? If not, stop doing the policy. Stop enabling government corruption and stifling money printing. Stop letting the loonies run the asylem.

Awesome speech. If one wants an organized Good Society, it must be a hierarchical society with wise men and women at the highest echelons of the hierarchy. We do not have this today. To defend this Good Society a strong military and industrial complex must exist with the Warfighter held in the highest esteem. The ancient ideas of glory and conquest shall return. A true distinction between friend and enemy will return. The absurd liberal principles of state sovereignty, international law, and failed U.N. mechanisms for resolving conflicts will all go away. The notion that a weak state can be allowed to attack a powerful neighbor without any recourse is unsustainable.

If u dont believe in diversity, then u dont believe in Heaven. Race is human-made. Mostly by agents with agendas. The US and its diversity is the best thing going on the entire planet for peace and tolerance and respect for other cultures. Its greed and selfishness that continue to inject cracks into this melting pot. We should continue to strive for the ideal and not give into evil racism. No matter how professional, eloquent, & logical it sounds. Eve found the snake very trustworthy and convincing as well. All that division does is create suspicious "others". I'm American. I love being American. I love Americas diversity and richness of cultures and I can freely and publicly celebrate those cultures with that culture. America, as an idea, is the closest thing to Heaven we have on Earth.

It's incredible how tilted Daniel Hannon was by the speech. He then questioned Peter Hitchens like a left-wing TV presenter, instead of a 'conservative'. Which pretty much proved the point of everything that Hitchens said.

Britain? He's preaching to the choir! The cult of Thiel; who's company, Palantir, works with the CIA,NSA and make his fortune in the surveillance and murder business. An unapologetic Monopolist, who's money shaped elections with his brilliant technology. Playing the "woke" card was invented by people of his ilk. By creating infighting, it's very effective at division and discouraging efforts to organize in class interest. Superficial tactics like DEI acts as an insurance policy against the next revolution, but it is unraveling.
