This week, David Lammy, the British Justice Secretary brought to an end the right to trial by jury, a right that has existed in England since the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215, while the tradition of trial by jury goes back even further that that. Is this the thin end of the wedge? Is it being done to expedite guilty verdicts in free speech cases? Do we now live in a Lawyerocracy? To discuss all this and more we were joined by Ed West, author of the Wrong Side of History Substack, who penned this excellent piece lamenting the end of trial by jury and the glory of English law. Stick around to the end to see how Ed does in Alex’s impromptu jury-based pub quiz. Thank you Matt Jones, Lynn L, Chris Moore, Paul k, Demoocracy, and many others for tuning into my live video with Ed West!

In this episode of Footsteps in Utopia, Alex takes on The Progress Trap by Ben Cobley, a book that skewers the modern Left’s claim to moral and historical authority. Far from marching forward, Cobley argues, we’re stuck in a loop where virtue-signalling replaces real debate, history is rewritten to s…

Some of the most iconic sights in Afghanistan are the cliffs of Bamiyan, famous the world over for the giant Buddhas carved into the rock face. Sadly, these monumental sculptures are no longer with us, having been dynamited by the Taliban in 2001. In this deleted scene from Afghanistan, James, Marty, and Khyber visit Bamiyan, where they encounter locals—caretakers of the Buddhas—who were forced at gunpoint to destroy them. It is an extraordinary eyewitness account of one of the most brutal acts of cultural vandalism in world history. A UNESCO World Heritage site dating back to the 7th century, Bamiyan remains of tremendous archaeological significance despite the loss of the Buddhas, with numerous mysteries yet to be uncovered.
