🗣️ We are delighted to announce that @DanielJHannan will be joining us as our new Director General. "The IEA set Britain free. When it was founded in 1955, there was a consensus in favour of high spending, industrial management and economic planning. Ralph Harris and Arthur Seldon showed people what was wrong with those ideas, and thus unleashed the genius of our nation. We face a similar challenge today. Public spending and taxation are higher now than they were in 1955. We are back to the fatal conceit, the idea that politicians, bureaucrats and planners know best. Just like the IEA's founders, we need to change people's minds, to open people's eyes. The route to national prosperity, now as then, is through deregulation, free trade, sound money and low spending. It's not just the politicians we need to convince; it's not even primarily the politicians. When voters understand the case for smaller government, MPs follow. I am so grateful to every one of my predecessors, from Ralph Harris, who inspired me as a teenager, to David Frost, whom I am proud to call my friend. They kept the flame burning. Now it is time to heap up the fire." — Lord Hannan of Kingsclere, incoming Director General of the IEA, from 1 June 2026.





Geoffrey Hinton on AI's job loss: History’s tech revolutions replaced one job with another. e.g. Tractors replaced farm jobs with factories & office jobs. But AI will break that cycle, because AI can replace both physical+intellectual labor.


Preserving a Jewish majority in Israel isn’t the same as preserving a white majority in America. One emerged from two thousand years of expulsions, pogroms, and genocide. The other did not.














- Pull out of NATO. - Close all bases and remove all military personal from the UK, Germany, Spain, and France. - Never protect these countries again. - Stop all trade with these countries. ZERO. - Refuse to share any military technologies and don't allow to them to buy any military equipment. Ever. - Don't share any intelligence with them. NONE. - Tell them they have to provide 100% of weapons and money to Ukraine. - Cut them off completely.

In the future, there will be three major powers in the world: China, USA, EU. Neutral countries will move as much as possible towards the EU as their preferred partner because both China and the USA treat other countries disrespectfully and try to extort them. Europe will be the only great power and market to turn to if you want to have an equal and fair relationship. Canada is already moving towards Europe for this exact reason. India and Japan will also form a closer relationship with Europe. This is what soft power means. MAGA replies in the comment section will prove the point.






It's hilarious to watch propagandists undermine the alliances that actually underlie America's global power to artificially elevate the relationship with Israel, which has brought the US nothing but headaches in 80 years, while MAGA retards lap it up because they know nothing.
