As I argue in the @Telegraph, “[closing] off the best that our civilisation has to offer young people in the name of drab collectivist homogeneity is terrifying…

“Our role in education is not to tear everything down and enforce what Churchill called the “equal sharing of misery” – it is to unleash opportunity and encourage the individual flourishing of every student, recognising that life is better as a rich, diverse tapestry; not a miserable, uniformed manifestation of Labour conformity.”

A beautiful story of humanity & reconciliation, 44 years after the Falklands War.

In 1982, Royal Marine, Andy Gatrick, encountered Argentine soldier, Héctor Pereyra.

Andy had the power to take Héctor’s life, but he chose to spare him. Héctor went on to have four children, from whom he now has nine grandchildren.

44 years later, Andy has travelled to Argentina to return the helmet he took from Héctor during the war.

The two men embraced.

A very moving story of mercy & humanity. That is what I call super intelligence.
