Europe urgently needs to re-establish access to Russian oil and gas. Gas prices are high – as all UK energy consumers know – and German gas storage is at a record low for September. Gulf production is degraded, supplies cut off and its long term strategic…
Dr David Halpin and David Kelly
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2026/08/dr-david-halpin-and-david-kelly/
Published: August 29, 2026 11:26
Dr David Halpin, a redoubtable campaigner over the murder of Dr David Kelly, and a friend of this blog for over twenty years, has died. He will be missed. His sister Mary was for many years an invaluable commenter here and occasional researcher for me.…
Of Judges, Juries and Fascism

We still don’t have a decision on whether the Scottish judicial review of Palestine Action can proceed. Lord Young is thinking about it. Last Thursday’s hearing went about as well as it could go. The UK government produced no written argument and barely…
Scottish Judicial Review Hearing Tomorrow

Published: August 19, 2026 21:05
After eight months of obstructionism from the Labour Friends of Israel government of the UK, tomorrow is the day on which the Scottish Court of Session will finally decide whether to go ahead with the judicial review it granted in January, or kowtow to…
A Tide in the Affairs of Men

Between ten and five years ago, specifically in the light of Brexit, it was not in the least unusual for Scottish Independence supporters to discuss a declaration of Independence as the way forward. Debate more often centred on who should make the…
The Hard Right Packing of the UK Supreme Court
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2026/08/the-hard-right-packing-of-the-uk-supreme-court/
Published: August 2, 2026 18:00
Unlike the USA, where it is obsessively watched, the UK has no political culture of scrutinising the political composition of its Supreme Court. This is a big mistake. The UK Supreme Court has been deliberately and openly, even ostentatiously, packed with…
Scottish Independence: Set the Date!
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2026/07/scottish-independence-set-the-date/
Published: July 29, 2026 17:30
The Scottish Government urgently needs a bold and radical approach to achieving Independence in spite of the firm London veto on a referendum. It is plain that there is no plan at present. The Scottish Parliament has a pro-Independence majority and…
Narratives of Moral Conflict: Karim Khan and Delcy Rodriguez
Published: July 26, 2026 05:09
Social media is not conducive to nuance. In the interest of reach, cut and dried positions are more effective and binary moral judgement expected. This leads to over-simplification of complex issues, and to skipping over facts inconvenient to your chosen…
Where Are We Going?

An advert for the RNLI caught my attention because it indicated that the majority of their income comes from bequests in wills. The pitch was that, after you provide for your loved ones, you should leave money to the RNLI. I have no problem with this,…
Extreme Unionism and Res Judicata
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2026/07/extreme-unionism-and-res-judicata/
Published: July 14, 2026 16:02
Unsurprisingly, today at the Court of Session Lord Young refused to lift his suspension or “sist” of the Scottish judicial review of the proscription of Palestine Action. He did however grant us leave to appeal against this decision. What was surprising…
