Stanley Kurtz, rounding up British opinion on Great Britain's predicament and bearing thereto, recommended to Saturday readers a Telegraph editorial prescribing "Ten Urgent Steps to Make Britain Safer." Patriotism, nationalism, assimilation, moral assertion and law enforcement are what the United Kingdom has not got enough of, write the Telegraph's editors, and a complacent democracy — so libertine as to entertain self-destruction — is an open conduit for nihilism and the carnage that follows.
Parliament should listen to the Telegraph and do as it says: reconvene and address measures that require the government. Reclaiming culture, however, beyond legislative repeal, is the responsibility of Britons themselves, beginning with the Telegraph. This editorial should the first of dozens, published regularly and adaptively over the coming years. Tautology as this is: Only while there are still English will there always be an England.
