Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Douglas Murray (Author & Journalist) about Dave’s coming out story in the first chapter of “Don’t Burn This Book”. Dave compares his coming out as gay to coming out of the “political closet” when he started being very critical of the identity politics of liberals and progressives. While friends and family were supportive of his being gay, he received a more hostile reaction to his political views. Dave also discusses the damage that living a double life can do to your mental health and how it makes you more apt to lie in other parts of your life.

Is the state of US news driving you crazy? Does the coverage of political news rarely seem “fair and balanced”? Serious discussions on US politics is vital to having a healthy democracy. No matter what political party you belong to, we need to be able to hear a variety of political perspectives.

In this return visit to The Mark Steyn Show, Douglas Murray - international bestselling author of The Strange Death of Europe - talks about his latest book The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race and Identity.

Douglas takes questions from not only Mark but also an invited audience of Steyn Club members on some of the internal contradictions of the rainbow coalition. The abolition of the sexes is a profound challenge, not only to "conservatives" or "the right" but also to feminists and gays and other hitherto favored categories of the left.

This edition of The Mark Steyn Show was recorded before a live audience from the United States, Canada and elsewhere, gathered together in Montreal.

We're proud to present a brand new edition of The Mark Steyn Show. In this episode, Mark talks to Douglas Murray, with whom he last appeared on the tenth anniversary of the Mohammed cartoons in the Danish Parliament. Douglas discusses his new book The Strange Death of Europe: Immigration, Identity, Islam, published in America this week and which Mark describes as "profound".

Steyn and Murray survey a continent in unprecedented demographic transformation, and roam far and wide in their analysis from the East End of London to the Mediterranean refugee camps, from far northern Sweden to the tomb of Charles Martel.

Critical race theory, which is being taught at the world's elite universities, is based on a "totally false assertion" that western democracies are riven with racism, according to author Douglas Murray.

Critical race theory is a based on theory the institutions in most western societies are racist and constructed to further the political and economic interests of white people at the expense of minorities.

Critical race theory is also taught in conjunction with Intersectionality, which was coined in 1989 by professor Kimberlé Crenshaw to discuss how gender, class and race often intersect when it comes to societal power structures.

Mr Murray told Sky News many of the young people who study these degrees are "educated into imbecility."

"At some cost to their parents or to the state, they have gone to universities who have made stupider by the time they have come out than they were when they went in," he said.

"The central text these people rely on they are so flimsy they should be laughed at.

"The main thing is, people who have downloaded into their systems a totally false idea of the societies they live in...they are deranged because they have an idea of the country they are in that is false."

Douglas Murray reacts to the killing of 3 people in Reading

Douglas Murray talks to Iain Dale on LBC Radio about why there has been little media attention of the murder of three gay men in a terrorist attack in Reading.

Douglas Murray told Julia Hartley-Brewer that everyone he has heard from is united in being horrified at the manner in which George Floyd was killed by a policeman. However, he said the death of one man in Minnesota “is not a reason for people to turn out in their thousands in cities across the world”.

Expressing concern at the way the government have handled recent events, Mr Murray said there was “seemingly one thing even more important than stopping coronavirus…that’s anyone who just says they want to turn out to protest in this manner”. He said protest scenes were “reminiscent of somewhere in the middle east after a revolution and where everybody's passion is just going wild”.

He criticised people for turning out to protest, saying people in these situations will be putting public health at risk, suggesting that it would be difficult in the media to condemn people because “the protesters are able to say it's under the guise of Black Lives Matter”.

Douglas went on to say he does not envy the police “they've been stuck to a great degree by the wider societal pusillanimity, when it comes to a group that turns from having a righteous cause into being a thuggish and extremely troubling demonstration day after day.”

He does not think that crowds and mobs do have the right to pull down things that they claim to be outraged by, adding “I don't think they are outraged, particularly by this statue in Bristol. The statue was put up, because clearly the city was paying homage to the philanthropy of the man in question.”

One of the important things about studying history, says Douglas, is learning what happens when “mobs go around operating like this” saying that while it has been happening in London and elsewhere, “people become more emboldened about what they are allowed to do by society and police forced become cowed by them.”

He argues that one of the morbidities in British society is “this pretence that we are this fantastically racist, terrible country”, going on to suggest the people who say that “have gotten away with saying it without enough opposition for too long, and the result is that you see wounded policemen on the streets, who have nothing to do with Minnesota policing.”

Conservative author Douglas Murray gives his views on the George Floyd protests, rioting and looting across America, and the idea of white privilege. In an extended version of the Burning Questions series, Murray talks to The Sun's Steven Edginton about whether current events are leading to the end of Western society.

__________________________

What’s happening to Europe? The fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 was seen as a triumph for liberal democracy. True, the ‘end of history’ narrative didn’t play out across the world as many predicted. But in Europe political liberalism seemed unshakable, supported as it was by international business and transnational organisations such as the EU and NATO.

But now Europe stands at a precarious moment. Anti-establishment and anti-EU political parties are on the rise. Brexit and the presidency of Donald Trump add to the uncertainty. And while Marine Le Pen didn’t sweep to victory in the recent French presidential election, the new president Emmanuel Macron faces an uphill battle to fix the French economy and reform the EU’s institutions. If he fails, Le Pen could be well set to win the presidency in 2022.

How can we account for this surge of support for far-right and populist parties in Europe? Conventional wisdom has it that it is only in times of economic hardship and high unemployment that these groups begin to gain ground. That may be true of France, which took a serious knocking in the 2008 crash and has a high rate of joblessness. But the Dutch sit comfortably high in all the OECD rankings for income levels, employment and life satisfaction. And look at Poland, a country initially seen by the west as a post-communist success story. Although it has been largely unaffected by the Eurozone crisis and has no immigration as such, a xenophobic, authoritarian government is now in charge.

In this major Intelligence Squared event, we brought together a star panel to explore the reasons behind the rise of populism in Europe and to discuss where the continent is heading next. Is far-right politics the new normal? How will the continent deal with the effects of continuing large-scale immigration and its entrenched economic woes?

__________________________

Why do they do it? Again and again, after every attack, our media react by giving the terrorists exactly what they want – maximum publicity. Of course, the public should be told that an atrocity has taken place. But each attack dominates the news for days at a stretch. The TV networks go into overdrive, flying out their journalists to the scene of the attack and saturating their airtime. All this plays into the hands of terrorist organisations, allowing their killers to be glorified in the eyes of their supporters. In addition, the wall-to-wall news coverage creates a climate of fear and fuels the more authoritarian and xenophobic strands of our politics. President Trump’s recent actions – banning refugees and appearing to reference fictional terrorist attacks in Sweden – might be seen as an inevitable consequence of this hysteria. We should get things into proportion. After all, you’re more likely to fatally slip in the shower than be killed in a terrorist attack.

This is the line that was taken by former Times editor and Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins. He was joined by Fawaz Gerges, a prominent expert on ISIS and al-Qaeda who has extensively researched the historical roots of jihadi extremism on the ground in the Middle East. Gerges explained how the West has played into the narrative of terrorists by portraying them as an existential danger, rather than as mere common criminals.

But for national security commentator Douglas Murray, the only way to defeat terrorism is to tackle it head on, speaking plainly about the true scale of the threat. The recent wave of attacks by ISIS was just the beginning, he argued. Over a thousand foreign fighters have recently returned from Syria to Europe, and are highly likely to pose a risk to our security. It’s vital that our media and authorities keep the public fully aware about the terrorist threat and encourage everyone to be vigilant. Honest reporting is absolutely crucial, especially when society itself is under attack. As for ISIS, how they are portrayed in the mainstream media is a matter of indifference to them – their publicity strategy is all about broadcasting their attacks on social media to an audience of millions, not headlines in the press.

In a year of political earthquakes have we entered a new era or is it back to the 1980s with a Conservative majority and a red Labour in opposition? Discuss with the Guardian’s Jonathan Freedland, singer Billy Bragg, Women's Eqaulity Party co-founder Catherine Mayer, The Spectator’s Douglas Murray and Observer columnist Nick Cohen.

Douglas Murray is a British conservative author and journalist, and associate editor of The Spectator. In 2017 Murray wrote The Strange Death of Europe, taking on the issue of the global immigration crisis, and now he returns with The Madness of Crowds, a book about identitarianism in four areas: 'gay', 'women', 'race' and 'trans'.

Douglas speaks to Alex about the logic of reparations and a retributive approach to historical injustice, as well as the nature of gender, and the advocacy tactics of the LGBT community.

Douglas Murray raises the point that the argument often used for immigration is that there are jobs that British people will not do, he says that this is racist. He quotes statistics from studies showing that the British people think that there is too much immigration happening in the UK. He concludes by saying that immigration isn't the problem but it's the speed of immigration that is.
