From a wonderfully fizzing article by philosopher John Gray that attacks everyone.

 "In Europe, including Britain, the chief beneficiaries of the eclipse of humanism are Islamism and ethnic nationalism. Woke is not a sustainable successor ideology. Hyper-liberalism is still deeply embedded in our ruling institutions; but for most of its followers it is a career strategy, and the institutions – universities, quangos and the like – are unlikely to survive coming fiscal crises intact. Suppressed in the Gulf States and other Muslim-majority countries, radical Islamist movements spell the end of the British experiment in multiculturalism and French republican laïcité. Just as globalisation was supposed to spread “democratic capitalism”, mass immigration was meant to result in conversion to liberal values. The opposite is happening. In a generation or so, if current trends persist, an Ottoman-style millet system – in which different religious communities are governed by their own laws – may coexist uneasily with nationalist governments. A Europe of equal freedom for every religion, under a rule of law that applied to all, would soon be a distant memory."

The future of Europe, Neagu Djuvara and Bernard Lewis said, is to be Muslim, part of the Maghreb. Not Russian or Chinese as Gray thinks is possible. 

What Gray calls ethnic nationalism is probably love of country.

I don't think King Charles III likes the Orthodox Church because of her "relative lack of wokery" but because it's his father's religion but it is one of the Orthodox Church's many huge attractions..What he calls "anti-modern Catholicism" and the Orthodox Church are the hope for the world. But things medium term look bad. 

In the short term Europe might get a good understanding with Russia but most European leaders doesn't seem to want one. 

Those political figures who do sometimes have bad things happen to them.
