In late August 1619, a ship arrived in the British colony of Virginia bearing a cargo of 20 to 30 enslaved people from Africa. Their arrival led to the barbaric and unprecedented system of American chattel slavery that would last for the next 250 years. This is sometimes referred to as the country's original sin, but it is more than that: It is the source of so much that still defines the United States.

The Third Man is his story – of a life played out in the backroom and then on the frontline of the Labour Party during its unprecedented three terms in government.

Charting what he terms the ‘soap-opera’ years of the Labour government, his book is certain to ruffle many feathers.

Many people believe that the New World Order is rapidly closing in on our personal liberties. Even our identities are being stolen. ID Cards are being forced upon the British and press freedom is a thing of the past as journalists are told what to say and what not to say.But there is a group of people who refuse to take this oppressive Big Brother State attitude lying down.

In 1989, Francis Fukuyama famously announced the "end of history." The Berlin Wall had fallen; liberal democracy had won out. But what of illiberal democracy - the idea that popular majorities, working through the democratic process, might reject gender equality, religious freedoms, and other norms that Western democracies take for granted? Nowhere have such considerations become more relevant than in the Middle East, where the uprisings of 2011 swept the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamist groups to power.

A new generation is stepping up. There are now 26 millennials in Congress - a fivefold increase gained in the 2018 midterms alone.

"I liked you better before you became political. When all you cared about was making movies about cops, cyborgs, and brain-dead zombies." "I liked you better before you became one of those brain-dead zombies." Marxist-spouting professors. Tolerant Westside liberals refusing to be tolerant. Angry protesters beating motorists and appropriating their cars in the name of "justice." Is this hell? No, it's Los Angeles. On the most divisive day of the year, in the most racially-charged city in America, recently red-pilled movie producer John Duke is about to learn what political correctness really...
