Discipline is one of my fave albums ever, and I love Steve Vai. Steve Vai is quite a left field choice, but to me that’s what makes it more interesting.

Undoubtedly an inspirational figure of the eighteenth century, he emerged from a working-class background and achieved immense wealth.

Within 24 hours, the article’s author was interviewed on a new, but increasingly popular, television channel by a famous British politician. Within a week, the story had been aired several times on similar television channels, was covered in half a dozen articles and editorials by well-established publications and had triggered an internal government review to address the issue she had exposed. All of this is reasonable enough, if Stanley did not enjoy the course, it was her right to speak out. The course, however, had received no other public complaints, was delivered by respected experts in the field and was intended to give civil servants a window in their careers to think critically about important issues such as terrorism. The question remains, how did one complaint – scant proof by any standard – ultimately cause a reaction at the highest levels of government? Stanley’s article made a point of criticising the way the course discussed the issue of Israel and Palestine, which, in her opinion, was unduly biased against Israel.
Established in 1838 we are the oldest supplier of quality antique, vintage and modern classic collectible fishing tackle in the world.

The “deep retrofit” of Bush House South West Wing is set to open in September 2027, King’s College London announced. And yet, in a remarkably flexible twist of logic, Murray wrote in the same article that KCL should “suspend Neumann to clean up this mess”. Free speech, so it would seem, is not for those who hold an opinion contrary to Murray’s. When the right claims to defend free speech, what they are really defending is the privilege of that group to say and do as it pleases, with impunity.
It involves our own university, a disgruntled civil servant and the mass media machine. The new equations offer a shortcut for describing the unconventional spin behaviour of the electromagnetic waves, and can be applied to describe also fluid, acoustic and gravitational waves. The lobbying industry in Britain is worth billions of pounds; its companies operate beyond public scrutiny and employ thousands of professionals who spend a good deal of time thinking of clever ways to influence public opinion. Unlike “wokeness”, or academic courses, this is a genuine threat to our democracy. More transparency is needed in this sector, as well as tougher rules on political finance. We cannot change any of this overnight, but we can immunise ourselves against the barrage of partisan information by taking that second look, considering opinions other than our own, and always thinking for ourselves.
Phillips also wrote in defence of Douglas Murray, who was allegedly mentioned in the course as an example of the far-right, saying that he was accused of committing a “thought crime” for being a vocal supporter of Israel. The irony, I hope, was not lost on Phillips when using a term coined by Orwell to spread the sort of politics that he spent his lifetime fighting against. If this account seems peculiar, or it is difficult to see how an academic course could pose such a danger to society, it is because the events have been stripped of the political language used to originally present them, distilled to their basic facts. Without the shroud of propaganda to veil them, the distortions seem obvious, if not a little crass.
This allowed the more genteel publications, The Times and The Spectator, to dedicate extensive column inches to the article by Stanley. At this stage, the story had entered the ‘elite’ or ‘agenda-setting’ media, referred to as such because their audience are closely linked to the corridors of power. On 16 January, a week after Stanley’s article was published, the Security Minister Tom Tugendhat ordered an internal review into the way the Home Office uses external courses. As mentioned, the goal of spin is to take the facts and present them as believable but inaccurate narratives to achieve a desirable political effect. In a week, BICOM had done this using little other than its connections and an article published on its journal. In an opinion piece in The Times, Melanie Phillips used the hackneyed, clash-of-civilisations argument to rail against the “anti-western ideology infecting the public sector”.
