A conservative thought

From Dennis O'Keeffe Sir: At the Salisbury' Review we welcome the warm vindication of Ray Honeyford in your pages (How Islam has killed multiculturalism', 1 May). Why, though, do you call our journal 'right-wing'? We are a quarterly journal of conservative thought. Is not The Spectator a weekly journal of conservative thought? The Salisbury Review is against all forms of arbitrary government, and for all forms of excellence, political or aesthetic. Most of our contributors have abandoned misleading labels like Left and Right. We are conservatives. Any of your readers in search of undiluted and consistent conservatism are welcome to subscribe to our magazine.
