    migration and an english mythology.

    Quote
    Like those buried in the ancient mounds that Traffic sang of, Tom Bombadil might be in England but he is not of it. This is signaled in the sequel by the geography of Middle-earth. In their journey from the hobbit-hole of Bag-end to the house of Tom Bombadil the hobbits cross to the other side of the Shire, pass over the Brandywine river, its original border, continue through Buckland, a colony of the Shire where folk are queer, and enter the Old Forest, the point of contact with Faërie. This is a journey into – and beyond – the march, and the lesson, surely, is that once upon a time all of England was the march and the aboriginal spirit of Tolkien’s England is not English.

    ^ don't know who this kazmi guy is but his serious tweet gave me a good laugh.

    What many observant Muslims do not want, however, is to be compelled to actively exclaim support for ideas that directly contradict their belief system. They don’t want to be forced to hold rainbow flags, attend Pride marches, or sign up to a list of pledges. But they aren’t going to stop others from doing so. If that were the case, how would so many Muslims have been part of the Labour Party or voted for it over so many years, given its socially liberal disposition? Some people are not thinking clearly.

    mandatory digital id for brits - not to deal with illegal migration but probably for more sinister/incompetent reasons.

    interesting interview with conservative defector to reform.

    Quote
    Danny Kruger had been at the heart of the Conservative Party since it was led by David Cameron, until he decided that party was "over" ... He sits down with Nick to explain why we need a "revival" of Christian conservatism.

    Polanski, who was elected the new leader of the Greens last month, said British politics is "moving into" a contest between his party and that of Nigel Farage.

    turning japanese.

    Quote
    Japan’s political discourse has taken a troubling turn. During the 2024 and 2025 Liberal Democratic Party leadership elections, all candidates competed to sound tough on "foreigners."

    This alarmism comes as the right-leaning Sanseito party has surged in popularity. The party, which calls immigration a “silent invasion,” won 14 seats in July’s Upper House election. Not surprisingly, other parties are now adopting Sanseito’s rhetoric.

    But here’s the problem: Japanese politicians are conflating distinct categories that require different policy responses. Immigration (permanent settlement), temporary foreign workers, refugees, illegal migrants and tourists are being lumped together in political speeches. The result is dangerous confusion where legitimate policy debates about labor shortages become entangled with xenophobic fears about cultural invasion.
