Something Vexes Thee?

Paul Robinson of Hull University has an article in this week's issue of the Spectator (free registration required) that is worth a read.

I corresponded minimally with Paul a year or so ago over a couple of pieces he'd written (and actually suggested he start his own website - but apparently he's "busy" with "work" and "research" and other airy-fairy things like that) and I find his output invariably provocative and interesting even while I may disagree with large chunks of it. Politically, from what I can tell he's basically Jonathan Swift.

Only reborn and working in Hull.

And living on the continent, if memory serves.

Anyway, worth a read.
