If you doubt me, consider what happened to Allison. Someone dug up a year-old tweet, long-since deleted, and complained about it. Why would you go to all that trouble to find something to be upset by? Good question. Toby Young of the Free Speech Union, who has himself been on the receiving end of this nonsense, calls it “offence archaeology”.

With a foreword by Toby Young (director of the Free Speech union and associate editor of The Spectator) and an introduction by Dr Donnelly himself, the various contributors each add to the book’s overarching theme that rather than practicing self-flagellation over our role in Western culture, we should be rightly celebrating it.

The teenage girl banned from football after asking a “bearded” transgender opponent “Are you a man?” is to appeal her punishment with the help of a free-speech group that is also assisting Allison Pearson. The Free Speech Union (FSU) has appointed leading barrister John Jolliffe to fight a guilty verdict imposed by a national serious case panel that has provoked growing outrage and a protest outside Wembley ahead of England’s Nations League victory against Republic of Ireland on Sunday.

I wasn’t surprised to read The Times’s story about schoolchildren being investigated for possible ‘hate crimes’. These included a nine-year-old who’d called a classmate a ‘retard’ and two girls at a secondary school who’d told another pupil she smelt ‘like fish’. The police, having decided that these episodes did not meet the threshold for criminal prosecution, dutifully recorded them as ‘non-crime hate incidents’ (NCHIs).
