The UN refuses to acknowledge Taiwan’s existence. It is beholden to China’s will. What is the point of an international peace project if it reliably does the bidding of a communist dictatorship?

Republicans must own climate change to win young voters. I discussed American environmentalism with Stephen Kent for Underscored, the Young Voices podcast.

As China reneges on its climate change commitments, now is the perfect time for Britain to step up and lead the way on both renewable energy and de-Sinoficiation by investing in promising clean energy projects around the world.

Strap in for a bumpy ride as the PM has put everything back on the table by reopening the Withdrawal Agreement debate.

Corbynites have walled themselves into a corner. They must oppose both the government and the Opposition. They must be the Opposition’s opposition. And that often means adopting unjustifiable positions, like defending China.

Young voters care about the planet, and the GOP is flat-out refusing to engage on environmental issues. The Republican party must address its climate problem.

Trump's Republicans are climate-denying racists and Biden's Democrats are socialist, statist and authoritarian. Pro-liberty voters are out of options. When did America stop believing in freedom?

Uyghur Muslims are being systematically incarcerated, torn from their loved ones, sterilised and murdered. The CCP does not show a flicker of remorse as it denies what is plain to see. History will judge us for how we respond.

Plenty of groups face institutional barriers to their progress in British academia. Tories are not one of them.

The Home Office is - and always has been - racist. And now we have the data to prove it.

Overhauling our reliance on fossil fuels will represent the world's biggest realignment since the Industrial Revolution. A wind turbine here and a solar panel there simply won’t cut it. We need nuclear power.

There is no reason why you can’t be both pro-capitalism and pro-environment. In fact, being pro-capitalism makes you a much better environmentalist.

Online Course: Freelance Political Commentary – How to Get Started

How must you see obese people if you think that banning “buy one get one free” deals on unhealthy foods will cause people to lose weight? Obese people are human beings, not a problem for you to solve. Leave us alone.

The Chinese Communist Party is shamelessly massacring Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang. Post-Brexit Global Britain must stand up for human rights on the world stage.

I spoke to the Marshall Society about the British Conservation Alliance, nuclear energy, Extinction Rebellion and the need for a Green Market Revolution.

Ocean plastic cleanup is one of many examples wherein the private sector is succeeding where governments fail. Whether they intend to make a profit or simply to do good, the result is the same: private actors can do the job.

The world might not explode in five years’ time, but we don’t have an eternity to stop climate change either. The clock is ticking.

If we are to rebuild the globalised world order after lockdown, our economies must be free. Trade borders and barriers to immigration will only slow down our recovery.

We don't have to impoverish the world in order to save it.

Now more than ever we need proper, rigorous scrutiny of the government’s every move. Journalists have found themselves sucked so deep into the world of tabloid gossip that they have forgotten about their duty to the public.

Conversion therapy is a heinous pseudoscientific practice with no place in twenty-first century Britain. It is linked directly to depression, drug addiction and suicide. Experts say it is akin to torture. Yet, it remains legal.

When lockdowns are lifted, reviving the global economy will be an almighty task. We won’t be able to do that if we're all boxed into separate corners, refusing to interact in a mutually beneficial way.

Eco-socialist policies boil down to the same myopic principle: that the best way to tackle environmental issues is through copious government spending and crippling new regulation.

It is absolutely imperative that the government does not undermine our post-coronavirus economic recovery before it has even begun through crippling tax rises.

Eamonn Holmes is emblematic of the ‘both sides’ culture in British media, one that has allowed misinformation to gain legitimacy.

If Public Health England refuses to cut through the red tape and allow testing to take place in facilities outside of its direct control extremely soon, countless lives will be needlessly lost.

Labour is excellent at not making existential decisions. Post-Corbyn, the party must decide what it wants: radical socialism or social democracy. Keir Starmer’s election was a mere postponement. Labour is procrastinating.

The technology for remote working has existed for a very long time. It should not have taken a global health disaster to draw our attention to its potential.

We are in a crisis. This is no time for principle or ideology. Policies’ merit should, for the time being, only be assessed in terms of their utility in the short term. The emergency is now. The time to act is now.

Remainers of all stripes are making fools of us and themselves by refusing to concede to the catalogue of democratic mandates that has, at long last, led to Brexit getting done.

I was interviewed for LSE Limelight, a podcast of The Beaver (LSE's campus newspaper). I spoke to Christina Ivey, the editor of the Beaver's Flipside section, about the intersection of the personal and the political.

I was interviewed for LSE Limelight, a podcast of The Beaver (LSE's campus newspaper). I spoke to The Beaver's multimedia editor, Yasmina O'Sullivan, about pronouns, gender politics and the roots of bigotry.

I appeared on Scope (on the Pakistani Indus News channel) to discuss the latest Brexit developments.

In Scotland, there are no restrictions on Sunday trading. Shops can open whenever they like, for as long as they like. For unfathomable reasons, this is not the case in England or Wales.

Electric scooters are the latest in a long list of clear illustrations of why the solution to the climate crisis lies not with government, but with the free market.

I am a cisgender, straight, white, male, middle-class Tory. If I can add "he/him" to my social media bios, then you definitely can too. There is no basis for defying this that is both rational and compassionate.

The storming general election triumph may have concealed a real electoral problem for the Conservative Party, which will bubble to the surface with little subtlety in years to come: its young people problem.

This week's debates about the House of Lords are eerily reminiscent of arguments over Europe back in 2015.

Starmer refuses to sully his leadership bid with ideological positioning, choosing instead to construct an image of himself as a cuddly leader who will cater to everyone’s preferences.

The supplanting of Remain as the centrepiece of the Lib Dems’ campaign efforts will leave an enormous policy vacuum. The party should consider shifting from Europhilia to liberalism, thereby returning to its roots and moving on at the same time.

At the end of this year, Boris Johnson will be facing something of a Sophist’s Choice over Brexit, between a No Deal-lite and more 'dither and delay'.

Labour members are so deeply invested in the Corbynite vision that they shut out anyone who dares to suggest that the party should edge closer to the centre-ground if it ever wants to win another election.

The Tories are now brilliantly placed to frame immigration as an indispensable part of the outward-looking post-Brexit “Global Britain” that all those Leavers voted for. We need to change the conversation on immigration.

Voters are beginning to reject economic arguments in favour of those who are seen to reflect their social values.

Widening the franchise by dropping the voting age to 16 and extending voting rights to foreign-born UK residents will guarantee Labour governments for the foreseeable future.

The Labour Party has attempted a delicate balancing act between its Eurosceptic and Europhilic contingents. A second referendum would expose a stark imbalance.

The current moment will be remembered as the point at which the world woke up to the climate emergency. We kids have led the charge and the grown-ups are beginning to cotton on.

For university professors to strike over pay and “conditions” as though they are pot washers in the backroom of a dingy diner is preposterous.

Half the Labour Party is still stuck in the Brexit battles of 2016, while the other half is still fighting those of the 1980s.
