About Me
- Neil Clark
- I am a journalist, writer & broadcaster, based in the U.K. I am the author of 'Stranger than Fiction', a biography of Edgar Wallace, available here http://goo.gl/o2cZze , 'Champion Jump Horse Racing Jockeys 1945 to Present Day' and 'Flying Ace'. I have been a regular contributor to newspapers and magazines in UK & overseas including The Daily and Sunday Express, The Guardian, The Week, Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday, The Spectator. My work has appeared in publications as diverse as The American Conservative, Woman's Weekly, and the Racing Post. I am strongly opposed to the neo-con war agenda -and believe in the urgent necessity of a left-right anti-war coalition. On domestic issues I support re-nationalisation of the railways and public utilities (I co-founded of The Campaign for Public Ownership), free care for the elderly, a free NHS including the restoration of NHS dentistry, and protection of the Green Belt and the countryside. I am anti-lockdown. FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @NEILCLARK66 and @MightyMagyar

How sad. I have often wondered why left intellectuals have this absurd habit of defending smoking just out of spite. What a pathetic form of "nonconformism", advocating something that you know is wrong just because some of those on the other side (those who advocate what you know is good and right and reasonable) are ugly and stupid. Now that Hitchens, that fascist at heart, has come out against the smoking ban, veteran left-wingers like you have an excellent justification for supporting it - because as you know, the smoking ban are the right thing to do, the only rational and humanistic policy imaginable. Wouldn't you admit it?
