I really want to like @JDVance. Religiously and politically I think we are pretty similar. But I can't. For example this. Democrats did not suggest sending US troops to Ukraine and Ukraine is not part of Russia. This tweet is either foolish or a lie.

Uber Eats, if you cannot succeed without the use of illegal workers, you are not a business but a criminal enterprise. Criminal enterprises will not be tolerated under a Conservative government in which I am Business Secretary. As a technology optimist, I know you can solve this…

The Government has failed to proscribe Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) but has proscribed the UK Palestine protest group - without publishing evidence of why the PA is a terrorist organisation. This catch-all has led to the arrest of people with whom you may disagree but…

That address from Pope Leo XIV has absolutely shredded the public/private distinction in matters of religion that has become the hallmark of polite western liberal norms. Complete and utter rejection.

As birthrate plummets to record low and primary schools close, the Government urge people to have more children. Yet they are simultaneously promoting a Bill which allows abortion up to birth - in a country where 10 million babies have been aborted. One British baby is lost to…

My baby will never live independently. He will never be especially verbal. He’ll be plagued by crosses of suffering from neurological problems we can never hope to heal. And it is good that he is alive. I am so glad no one stopped his life. He loves, and he is loved.

This is 2 tier justice. Maybe the govt./judiciary are not to blame because this is a decision by a jury - it very much depends on how the judge directed them. But it is manifestly unfair for Cllr Jones to escape prison while Lucy Connolly is behind bars. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

On Thursday 14th August, the Vigil of the Feast of The Assumption, please pray and fast for the end of abortion & euthanasia. “If people spent one hour per week in Eucharistic Adoration, abortion would be ended.” St Teresa of Calcutta Please share here and facebook.com/events/7658697…

Where the Legion of Mary is concerned, the Irish Government has found its inner Henry VIII. This attempted looting is profoundly unjust and immoral.

Just to point out to @JSMilbank that not only was the voting age 21 in 1914, only 60% of male householders were enfranchised. The poorer 40% together with all the men who were not householders were not entitled to vote.

"Sixteen year olds don't pay much tax" is not an argument against enfranchising them. Quite a few adults don't pay much tax and the idea they should not be allowed to vote is dangerous. No, 16 y o should not have a vote because they are children.
