Gay Men, Equality and Sexually Transmitted Diseases
January 25, 2019 12:35 - 17 minutes - 16.4 MBHow should reasonable people respond to the fact that, year after year, the vast majority of certain sexually transmitted infections are brought about by the actions of a tiny, identifiable minority? Can we have true equality of rights when corresponding responsibilities are treated so unequally and with such disdain by that minority?
Beware: cold, hard logic drives the liberal agenda

November 19, 2018 15:11 - 8 minutes - 8.09 MBThere is no voice in Britain for social conservatism. All the main political parties promote policies underpinned by an aggressive social liberalism. Yet socially conservative views are widely held by many people. So what should social conservatives do to gain a hearing for their valid concerns about the direction in which society is heading?
