They're Getting Revenge, Starting Today

August 21, 2026

From the Tom Woods Letter:

I absolutely insist to you: I really am trying to stop writing about this topic. But too much insanity keeps breaking out, and I have no choice but to comment on it.

You know the story: a Cambridge academic, Jason Arday, was found to have plagiarized his dissertation, borrowed heavily from others in his published articles, produced essentially worthless research, called the police on a reporter and on a professor who asked questions about his resume, invented wild tales of athletic and academic achievement as well as philanthropic work, and (of course) accused his critics of “racism.” And then, late last week, he was found dead at his home in an apparent suicide.

That would have been it, but the left — instead of the embarrassment it should feel at having promoted the greatest academic charlatan of the past ten years (and that’s saying something) — is trying to play the victim here: mean right-wingers in the media shouldn’t have pushed so hard on the Arday story...


There has been much written about the Arday tragicomic saga.

On the positive side at least people are still prepared to call out such nonsense in the face of hate, intimidation and cancellation.

The above and the following links may be of interest. The promoters of Arday, having no shame, are hard at work making him into another plaster saint. Another victim of "RAAAAYCEEEEESM!"


Keith Thompson

13th February 1939 -

23rd July 2026

requiesat in pace


"Keith Thompson - well known Nationalist figure passed away in July aged 87.

Keith was a youthful member of Sir Oswald Mosley's Union Movement from 1961, after completing his National Service with the R.A.F.

Later on Keith was a founder of the League of St. George organisation and edited its magazine League Review.

Apart from his immediate family, the funeral held in Southend-on-Sea, on Thursday 13th August, was attended by a selection of old Nationalist comrades (amongst whom were Candour Assistant Editor Stephen Smith and the BNPs first Councillor Derek Beackon).

A lovely speech was given by his best friend (aged 88) who told us how he met Keith at a Mosley Union Movement rally at Trafalgar Square in 1961. Great Stuff."

One of the Titles Published by The A.K. Chesterton Trust:


HIDDEN GOVERNMENT

By Lieut. Colonel J. Creagh Scott

D.S.O, O.B.E.


A few years ago we were approached by the grandson of Lieutenant-Colonel John Creagh Scott, D.S.O., O.B.E. with a view to reprinting Hidden Government. Originally published by the Britons Publishing Society between 1954-65 in four editions this is the latest, fifth, edition we are proud to have reprinted in 2017.

A.K. Chesterton wrote the following obituary which appeared in Candour #216, 13th December 1957.

"We record with profound regret the death of... 'Jock' Creagh Scott, a member of the Council of Candour.

In the early days, when we had great difficulty in securing sponsors for our movement because most supporters were holding back, 'Jock' Creagh Scott, without a moments hesitation, gave us the use of his name and reputation. His support was absolutely invaluable. As he showed superb physical courage on the battlefields of the First World War, so in the undeclared war in which we are now engaged 'Jock' always displayed a superb moral courage.

Colonel Creagh Scott had many other interests, especially in the West Country, but none was dearer to his heart than the Candour-League of Empire Loyalists movement. He did not always agree with the editor of this journal, but after stating his disagreement he invariably stood by decisions that went against him.

A determined fighter, his place in the leadership of the movement is irreplacable.

May this most courageous warrior rest in peace."


From the Introduction...

"The contention of this book is that the amazing things bewildering and shattering the world to-day, are not haphazard, or the result of coincidence, or even of what is sometimes called 'The onward march of events,' but are the outcome of a Master Plan of human, or, as some may think, inhuman agency; into which Plan this book probes, in the general interest and for the safety of The Realm."
