Proud to be British
Europe's rulers must grasp what the British establishment has been forced to understand: that politics can no longer be located at a distance from its citizens.
Democracy rules
Because its citizens voted to do so, the UK undergoes a wrenching convulsion which is likely to make it poorer than it might otherwise have been.
Big Brother coming
The world's two most populous states, China and India, have nationwide digital systems combining collection of personal information and capacity for full surveillance and intervention by the state.
Testing global stability
Hard power in the ascendant powers features men (in every case) who use nationalism and the projection and growth of military force to bolster their popularity.
The driving force behind the modern Christian revival
Christmas is invariably the time for a grouch that neither Christ nor mas(s) feature much in a festival meant to rededicate Christian believers to the worship of the son of God. Materialism, especially for children, swamps, on this view, any reflection on the meaning of a Christian -- or religious -- life.
Torture of Theresa
The limb-stretching rack was outlawed in Europe, but is now being practised (virtually) on the British prime minister.
No more votes
A second referendum on Brexit would be bad news for the UK, for its politics, for Europe, and for the cause of democracy generally.
