Seemed then the best writing was written by conservatives (even when I disagreed with them). But neo-cons really, really lack the intellectual vigour I was used to.Man From Atlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08564058987138711708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-66067949337794471712016-09-02T00:52:50.906+01:002016-09-02T00:52:50.906+01:00Poor Fraser- he confidently predicted a year ago t...Poor Fraser- he confidently predicted a year ago that Oz PM Malcolm Turnbull would go to an election soon (amazing insight when he had to within 18 months) and win with an increased majority. <br />Alas Turnbull's 35 seat majority was slashed to 1 with an unmanageable Upper House.http://www.thesocialshuttle.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/08385625594884495221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-14139282827873866422016-09-01T17:44:25.463+01:002016-09-01T17:44:25.463+01:00And it has been pointed out that if and when Apple...And it has been pointed out that if and when Apple pay tax in Ireland then they will get credit for that off their US tax bill.

It now often reads like a rabid neocon fanzine, full of fact-free hatred from self-regarding bigots like Douglas Murray, James Delingpole and Toby Young. <br /><br />Nelson is ignoring the Spectator's traditional readership - educated, reasonable, civilised - because he knows there are more hits in impressing a proliferating community of cowardly far-right keyboard racists.
