In the tradition of Halifax and his admirers (e.g. Butterfield, Oakeshott, et al.), this blog is dedicated to the politics of skepticism (or anti-ideological politics, or even unprincipled politics, if you prefer).

quote for the day
Men are said to seek pleasure and shun pain; but as 'there is no accounting for taste', the statement is tautological--they seek what they seek. Lewis Namier
I don't belong to any club or group. I don't fish, cook, dance, endorse books, sign books, co-sign declarations, eat oysters,...go to church, go to analysts, or take part in demonstrations. V. Nabokov
