Etho-nationalism vs Civic-nationalism?
There is only nationalism
Let us start off with some positive news for the week: three Planned Parenthood clinics have been closed down in Michigan. One in Livonia, another in Warren, and the third in the state capitol, Lansing. Planned Parenthood cite a $4.2 million drop in reimbursements and $5.6 million in uncompensated care. That makes three down and seven more to go in the state that I serve in. We are headed in the right direction, thank God.

The state-sanctioned killing of the unborn is a grave evil. As a society, we continue to allow the murder of the most vulnerable. There is no wonder most Western nations are under judgment: “The foreigner who is among you shall mount above you higher and higher; and you shall come down lower and lower.” (Deuteronomy 28:43–44)
Proverbs 6 teaches us, “There are six things the Lord hates… hands that shed innocent blood.”
Europe is being overrun by Mohammedans, America and Canada by Indians. Things are certainly not looking good in Spain this week. Lord have mercy. May we stop killing our babies, and may the Lord spare us from foreign rule.
I address this problem and highlight solutions in my new book, The Silent Jihad, available exclusively from NXR.
On The Next Crusade this week, I offer a critical perspective on Anglican superiority, suggesting that Anglicanism is a unique tradition rather than a superior expression of the Christian faith compared to Roman Catholicism or Eastern Orthodoxy. Sectarianism does not help to advance the Kingdom. What is more important is striving toward Christian unity.
We also break the distinctions between civic nationalism and ethnic nationalism. Are either of them even a thing? Civic nationalism seems like liberalism, enjoying the fruits of nationalism without wanting to recreate the conditions that bore those fruits; ethno-nationalism seems more like a derogatory slur for what is actually just plain old-fashioned nationalism.
Why are other countries allowed to promote their national interests, but not us? If we want to survive as a nation, that has to change.
Ashlea Simon and I discuss the differences between being English and British.
The Next Crusade will be back next week with another spicy monologue and a fantastic guest!
On Fox & Father this week, Laurence Fox and I have a candid conversation about contemporary political developments, immigration policy, and the state of British public institutions. We discuss recent news events while exploring personal reflections on faith, the challenges of modern discourse, and our perspectives on maintaining national identity in the current social climate.
There will be no Fox & Father this coming Sunday; Laurence has been busy on the campaign trail. F&F may be spotty throughout August; we will both be in Greece. But we will try to record some in-person shows for you whilst we are out there!
On my Common Sense Crusade this week, we discuss flock cameras and nanny statism with Leilani Dowding. If we do not push back against Big Brother whilst we still can, it may soon be too late! All of the books we read growing up, from 1984 to Brave New World, seem to be coming true. Along with movies like Demolition Man and Minority Report. Make science fiction fiction again!
I was also joined by Joe McBride, lawyer to Andrew and Tristan Tate. It should be noted that this interview was recorded before their most recent arrest.
My Common Sense Crusade will not go on summer hiatus. We’ll be back with a new format after the summer holiday. I’m ‘on vacation,’ as they say here in the States, until September. But my Substack and other content will continue. We’re working on some great new plans for the Crusade; do keep an eye on Command Media.
The New Christian Right are hosting a conference in Dallas, Texas, this November. It would be great to see some of you there!
