Telling the truth has become a revolutionary act, so let us salute those who disclose the necessary facts.
By Anton Troianovski: As he watches Europe’s confrontation with President Donald
Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin appears to be enjoying an “I told you
so” moment.
By Mike Buchanan: Appalling. The start of the piece:The head of the UK’s largest teaching union has warned that plans to move towards a ‘knowledge-based’ curriculum risks “hurtling” England into the past.Dismissing plans for a traditional, academic curriculum as outdated, National Education Union (NEU) joint general secretary Mary Bousted argued the importance of including “identity”-focused figures to inspire people from minority groups.Delivering a speech at Bryanston Education Summit, she said: “As an English teacher, I have no problem with Shakespeare, with Pope, with Dryden, with Shelley.

It is a pity that free speech is becoming associated with Fascism. Because what free speech does is it lets you say something that challenges the ruling ideology. And they don’t want it challenged. So, to protect the ideology from challenge, they call the people telling the truth Fascists.
