PETER HITCHENS: Labour has a real lefty...so can we have proper conservatives?

Do not underestimate Jeremy Corbyn, pictured. Labour's Blairites lie dead and dying all over the place because they made that mistake.

RACHEL JOHNSON: Fancy getting fired, chaps? Just say 'that's a pretty frock'

When it comes to barrister Charlotte Proudman, we learn that hell hath no fury like a #fearless feminist complimented, writes RACHEL JOHNSON.

PLATELL'S PEOPLE: Men are the REAL oppressed sex today 

One minute Charlotte Proudman was an unknown 27-year-old barrister finishing a PhD on female genital mutilation and the law. The next she was at the centre of a global media storm, hailed a martyr by the sisterhood and a 'Feminazi' by her many detractors.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: A shameful injustice only a retrial can fix 

Day Two of our campaign to secure a retrial for Marine Sergeant Alexander Blackman, pictured, and the disturbing questions mount over his conviction.

SARAH VINE: If a man can't compliment a woman, the human race is in deep trouble 

When Alexander Carter-Silk took the liberty of expressing admiration for Charlotte Proudman's LinkedIn picture most normal woman would have thought 'What a nice man', writes SARAH VINE.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: Juncker's EU vision is another own goal 

Campaigners for Britain's exit from the EU will be quietly pleased after yesterday's vainglorious 'State of the Union' address, in which Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker outlined his vision of Europe's future.

RICHARD LITTLEJOHN: Whoever wins the Labour leadership election - I predict a bloodbath

RICHARD LITTLEJOHN: Those in the Labour leadership election are the real face of the New Left in Britain, a rancid collection of single-issue nutcases, 'anti-austerity' mentalists and Toytown Trots.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: This was no tragedy - another Iraq would be

This paper sheds no tears for British citizen Reyaad Khan and his two fellow Islamic State fighters killed by an RAF drone in Syria on August 21.

PIERS MORGAN: Don't shut your eyes to this picture because WE did this. Now we have to make it right

One pin-sharp image of a three-year-old boy washed up on the shoreline and we stop and shudder in collective horror, writes PIERS MORGAN.

RICHARD LITTLEJOHN: This child's death was tragic but it was not our fault

If this stark picture graphically illustrated the tragic human cost of the tidal wave of migrants trying to enter mainland Europe, the reaction to it has been deranged, writes RICHARD LITTLEJOHN.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: A humanitarian crisis 15 years in the making

In the words of the Chancellor, George Osborne, there is no person who would not be appalled by the 'very distressing' picture of little Aylan Kurdi, lying lifeless on a Turkish beach.

JAN MOIR: My sympathy for whining Cheryl is wearing thin 

Forget the collapse of the Chinese stock market, the iniquities of our justice system, migrant children dying on beaches. Someone has said a Bad Thing about wee Cheryl and she wants it to stop.

ROBERT HARDMAN: Queen Victoria a greater monarch than Elizabeth II? Twaddle! She was a workshy recluse 

On Wednesday there will be yet another amendment to the royal record books. And, this time, it's the big one as Queen Elizabeth surpasses Queen Victoria's time on the throne, writes ROBERT HARDMAN.

SARAH VINE: Why do we tell women lies about childbirth?

Women are still being sold a politically correct fantasy of childbirth that, far from liberating mothers, just adds to the tremendous pressure they already feel to be perfect in every way, writes SARAH VINE.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: Migration crisis and the big EU question

This was a bad day for David Cameron's hopes of keeping Britain in the EU with the the scenes at a Budapest station (pictured), evacuated by Hungarian police to stop a stampede by thousands of migrants.

What if the unthinkable happened? Donald Trump becomes U.S. President and Jeremy Corbyn makes it to Number 10: RICHARD LITTLEJOHN explores the scenario

What if the unthinkable happened? Donald Trump becomes U.S. President and Jeremy Corbyn makes it to Number 10. Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall at that summit meeting?

LIBBY PURVES: The farce of Dave's Asda wellies shows the sheer idiocy of our obsession with class

The story of David Cameron's Wellington boots sums up all you need to know about the most headbanging, ruinously jagged fault line in British politics.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: A nightmare to shake the world's conscience 

Throwing hideous light on one of the greatest humanitarian tragedies of our age, the bodies of 71 men, women and children have been discovered in an abandoned lorry on an Austrian motorway.

Look at the rat-like features of the man in this photo. Do you think he could lead the Labour Party? 

This week, to my huge pride and joy, I've discovered that someone has put into production a special edition of the game, under the title: Guess Who? The Utley Rules.

EPHRAIM HARDCASTLE: More BBC Proms to celebrate their own shows but Bake Off's turn could be tasty viewing

EPHRAIM HARDCASTLE: The Bake Off Prom could be tasty viewing. Mel and Sue dancing to the Sugar Plum Fairy as saintly Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood bake would surely be a crowd-puller.

PETER HITCHENS: British 'education' is a con - or haven't you learned that yet?

The giant fraud that is Britain's education system strides ever onwards, messing up many more lives than it improves, writes PETER HITCHENS.

ANNE MCELVOY: It's not Chilcot they are afraid of, it's the risk of going to jail 

The Chilcot report into the intelligence analysis, military decisions and post-battle planning over Iraq has already taken six years - and there appears to be no end in sight.

If Pink Viagra is the answer, the question is really stupid, says RACHEL JOHNSON 

A company called Sprout has developed a pill called Addyi - instantly dubbed 'pink Viagra' - for ladies who don't fancy making love to their partners.

MAIL ON SUNDAY COMMENT: Tardy Chilcot is destroying public's trust 

The Chilcot Inquiry is rapidly becoming part of the scandal it was supposed to expose. Britain's political and official classes simply cannot be trusted to investigate themselves.

PLATELL'S PEOPLE: Is the illicit fling website the biggest cheat of all? 

Ashley Madison richly deserves its current humiliation. Having exploited matrimonial trust for commercial gain, how perfectly piquant that the company itself has now lost consumer trust.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: The Corbyn joke that isn't funny any more 

Even now, with Jeremy Corbyn having an apparently insurmountable lead in the polls, it remains difficult for those of sober mind to picture this hard-Left socialist throwback as Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition.

PETER HITCHENS: If the bearded Lefty wins, it's the Tories who'll be a whisker away from disaster 

Smug Tories who rejoice at Jeremy Corbyn's seeming march towards the Labour Party leadership should be careful what they wish for, writes PETER HITCHENS.

LIZ JONES: I've been to Hell on Earth - and it's called Heathrow 

Terminal 5, Heathrow Airport, London. 


Exact date unknown.
C6R66D

At the airport, I encounter that Exocet on humanity - the blonde tot being pulled along by dad astride her little pink suitcase, which is made of Kryptonite, and aimed at your shins, writes Liz Jones.

SARAH OLIVER: Keep my dog or husband? It's a close-run thing... 

Columnist Sarah Oliver on the bizarre existence of pet-nups - and whether it is something work looking into, freeloading Beatrice, the 'legacy' of London 2012, and charity's Queen of Compassion.

MAIL ON SUNDAY COMMENT: We can defeat terror with a quiet resolve 

LONDON, ENGLAND - MARCH 09:  Queen Elizabeth II attends The Commonwealth Service at Westminster Abbey on March 9, 2015 in London, England.  (Photo by Mark Cuthbert/UK Press via Getty Images)

The discovery of a plan to unleash death, maiming and terror amid VJ Day commemorations in London demonstrates that the direct risk to this country from Islamist fanatics is real and urgent.

PLATELL'S PEOPLE: Whisper it, but Great British Bake Off is just SO boring

Yes, I know 9.3 million people watched the show when it returned on Wednesday night. But I find the Great British Bake Off BORING! Not just a tad tedious, but yawn-makingly dull.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: It's time privacy-obsessed judges put freedom of expression over 'human rights' of wealthy celebrities

Despite an injunction granted by Mrs Justice Laing (pictured) against naming them, the identity of the 'prominent and successful sportsman' who cheated on his future wife is known to millions.

LIZ JONES: Want to stop the slaughter of wildlife? Then start with seagulls 

The way people treat gulls is despicable, writes LIZ JONES. I agree with the outrage over the death of Cecil the lion, but at least he had a lovely life, which is more than can be said for our animals.

RACHEL JOHNSON: Don't blame the idiot who shot Cecil - we're all guilty 

My father (an environmentalist, conservationist and one of the first jolly green giants) would always say that he'd elect to save the last pair of mountain gorillas in Congo ahead of his kids.

PETER HITCHENS: How long before the police stop investigating murder?

The police force now can't even be bothered to turn up and investigate burglaries, and its chief spokesperson openly says so, they are busy doing something else, writes PETER HITCHENS.

The French ARE to blame for the chaos in Calais and we can't trust them to do any more than give a Gallic shrug, writes historian ANDREW ROBERTS 

The French police have for weeks now simply been looking the other way as the migrants mount their nightly assaults on the British freight haulage industry, writes ANDREW ROBERTS.

House of horrors! QUENTIN LETTS, who once defended the Lords, calls for a cull of the contemptuous cronies, crawlers and crooks at the Upper House 

Mr Cameron has put forward a list of 40 names for potential peerages - but they're likely to include party donors, failed politicians and other flunkeys and chums, writes QUENTIN LETTS.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: A nation imperilled by the Human Rights Act 

As the Mail reports today, the latest case backed by human rights lawyers involves the farce of a dangerous Moroccan sex attacker allowed to cheat deportation to preserve his right to a family life.

Jeremy Corbyn as leader and Tom Watson as his deputy would make Labour the Tom and Jerry party, writes political biographer STEPHEN POLLARD

If the polls are right, Jeremy Corbyn (pictured) is going to be Labour leader and Tom Watson his deputy - that's Tom and Jerry, writes political biographer STEPHEN POLLARD.

PETER HITCHENS: Our latest weapon in the war on terror? Organic free-range tripe

Is David Cameron, pictured, the man who will destroy freedom in order to save it? His strange, wild speech on Monday suggests that he is.

DOMINIC SANDBROOK: What Labour's greatest leader can teach these squabbling pygmies 

There is a glaring contrast between Clement Attlee's Labour of July 1945 and the shambolic, tragi-comical irrelevance of the party in July 2015, writes DOMINIC SANDBROOK.

AMANDA PLATELL: Adultery's wrong but so is giving up on your marriage

The homepage of the Ashley Madison website is displayed on an iPad, in this photo illustration taken in Ottawa, Canada July 21, 2015. Canada's prim capital is suddenly focused more on the state of people's affairs than the affairs of the state. One in five Ottawa residents allegedly subscribed to adulterers' website Ashley Madison, making one of the world's coldest capitals among the hottest for extra-marital hookups - and the most vulnerable to a breach of privacy after hackers targeted the site.    REUTERS/Chris Wattie

I can't help feeling that wronged spouses often act too hastily and - dare I say it? - obsess too much about a sexual betrayal that needn't necessarily spell the end for a relationship.

PETER HITCHENS: The best way to tackle terror? Keep calm and carry on quietly

Politicians react to terrorism much as parents might respond when their lisping tiny offspring come home from sex-ed classes and ask them to explain what lesbians do, writes PETER HITCHENS

RACHEL JOHNSON: I am sick of tennis 'girlies' in skimpy whites. So man up! 

When it comes to Wimbledon fortnight, I put a line through the diary - and would trample over both my grandmothers' graves to go to SW19, writes RACHEL JOHNSON.

Mail On Sunday Comment: Messages of hate that defy belief

From time to time we obtain evidence of how deeply we have failed to communicate the beliefs and values which have, over the centuries, made this such a unique society.

PLATELL'S PEOPLE: Lionesses who put the divas of tennis to shame 

On Wednesday, I did something I almost never do. I stayed up late to watch a football match. Around 2.4 million Brits did the same, as it happens, cheering on the England Women's World Cup team in their semi-final with Japan.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: Osborne's chance to transform Britain 

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: George Osborne is no longer encumbered by the Liberal Democrat millstone, and will deliver the first exclusively Tory budget in 20 years from a position of huge strength.

PETER HITCHENS: The EU reigns over our borders, our laws...  and now our Queen

When this country was independent, the Queen was the head of our nation, the lady to whom we are subjects, but can she still be out sovereign ad a subject of the European Union?

LIZ JONES: Last week was SO bad I'm taking the ultimate step - going offline  

Today, though, having just had the worst week of my life, I yearn for a few moments' respite from the internet, after spending years in constant search of a wi-fi connection, by LIZ JONES.

A female teacher 'seducing' a boy isn't just a laugh - it's cruel abuse, says RACHEL JOHNSON

The trial of former headmistress Anne Lakey made me see how blinkered my attitude that only men pose a sexual threat to children was blinkered, by RACHEL JOHNSON.

Mail on Sunday Comment: We must keep a cool head to fight fanatics 

Rightly, we respond with grief and rage to the callous and savage murders of so many innocent people in Tunisia, a large number of them our fellow countrymen and women.

LITTLEJOHN: Border controls? Who do you think you are kidding...

Fifteen years ago, after a hijacked Afghan airliner was diverted to Stansted, I invented a spoof game show called Asylum! It's been doing the rounds on the internet ever since. Here are the edited highlights:

JAN MOIR: What next? Jail for men who are a let down in bed! 

Samuel Price and Elizabeth Sandlin weren't exactly a couple. They were a pair of attractive twentysomethings who, over the course of a year, met up now and again for sex with each other.

STEPHEN GLOVER: Royal spin so clumsy it's left even the nasty SNP on the moral high ground 

STEPHEN GLOVER: We awoke yesterday morning to the maddening news that the Scottish National Party government in Edinburgh is snubbing the Queen by pulling out of a deal to fund the monarchy.

PETER HITCHENS: If policemen don't scare you, they are not doing their job 

What is the point of the police if wrongdoers aren't afraid of them? asks PETER HITCHENS. Yet Durham Constabulary has actually produced a poster chiding parents for using the police as bogeymen.

RACHEL JOHNSON: Now try calling Kate your 'current wife', William... 

There are limits to the dumbing-down of the monarchy, and I hope we have reached them with the words 'the missus' over the footie, writes RACHEL JOHNSON.

JAMES FORSYTH: How can Dave beat the EU? By eating tons of sauerkraut 

JAMES FORSYTH: David Cameron is eating for Britain. He consumed 12 courses in 24 hours as he tried to persuade his fellow heads of government of Britain's case for EU reform.

STEPHEN POLLARD: Why I, a Labour writer, believe that after 115 years...THE PARTY'S OVER

Ed Miliband's notorious 'Ed stone' listing his promises on a giant slab, has turned out to be not just his own political tombstone, but the Labour Party's too, after 115 years.

DAILY MAIL COMMENT: Mr Cameron and the rising migrant crisis 

The migrants who have illegally entered the Greek Island of Kos, are among thousands who have made the journey across the Mediterranean to Europe in the ever-deepening crisis.

Why emotional rollercoasters make me sick: writes CRAIG BROWN 

It's been another bumper season for rollercoasters, writes CRAIG BROWN, with the phrase being used to describe everything from Katie Price's love life to 16th century politics.
