Who are the English upper class? In The Fall and Rise of the English Upper Class: Houses, Kinship and Capital Since 1945(Manchester UP, 2023) Daniel Smith,a lecturer in sociology at Cardiff University, offers an analysis of the role and power of the upper class in English society. Drawing on, and critiquing, sociology, anthropology, literary and cultural studies, and psychoanalysis, the book uses a vast range of methods and examples to tell the story of the continued dominance of English elites. With examples ranging from fashion and bookshops, through fee-paying schools, to memoirs and money, the book is essential reading across the social sciences and humanities, and for anyone interested in understanding Britain’s current social, economic, and cultural crisis.

The woke Left is championing the same "pedophile doctrines" that enable child sex slavery, warns Tim Ballard, a former Department of Homeland Security agent who has rescued hundreds of children from sex slavery.
He also warns that taxpayer dollars are in effect funding child sex slavery under President Joe Biden.
Ballard spoke with The Daily Signal last week, speaking alongside Jim Caviezel, the actor best known for playing Jesus in "The Passion of the Christ." Caviezel portrays Ballard in the forthcoming film "Sound of Freedom." The film tells the story of Ballard's first mission to save children from sex slavery in Colombia.
Ballard spoke about the nexus of ideas between a pro-pedophile political party in the Netherlands and the Left's transgender advocacy in the U.S., and he raised the alarm about Biden border policies that fund and enable the exploitation of children.
