Melanie Phillips is a deity for our times, a modern Athena, goddess of intellect.
Such a shame that she is hardly more than a voice in the wilderness.
Another excellent panellist on the Moral maze is Janet Daley and (though I haven’t heard him on there for a while) the historian David Starkey. He’s a big poof, but he is socialy conservative and he gets right up the noses of the liberals .
L. What do you make of Clare Fox? She’s usually on the Maze. At times she seem quite reasonable on some topics, then says something that makes me wonder about her sanity.
But she isn’t stupid at all.
Wondered what your take is.
And Drew ....
Love your comment on Phillips. You’re right too.
I haven’t listened to much of the BBC of late. They really annoy me with the constant lefty bias so I haven’t heard Clare Fox, but I will try and catch up with the program if I remember.
