I'm a researcher, editor, author and former journalist.

I've been on the Metapolitics podcast discussing the future of the Green Party in the UK, as it reports membership overtaking the Conservatives. Your comments and shares welcome! open.substack.com/pub/danielhowa…


Indigenous woman of colour Rex Landy is facing a big fine or prison in New Zealand because a white coloniser was offended by a social media post. You can support Rex here: buymeacoffee.com/rexyrex2011


If you can make it to London, England next Saturday 13th September, please join me at Verdurin for ‘Paper Tigers’, an event on China as seen through Western eyes, featuring @DrLeeJones and David McGrogan of ‘News from Uncibal’. Tickets are £12. verdur.in/event/paper-ti…

For the West, China is a cultural and political entity made up entirely of our projections. How can we think about it besides the materiality in which it steeps us?


Part two of my commentary on the Bell Hotel asylum seeker case in Epping, an injunction just overturned on appeal, is out now. This case could have profound implications for any planning application in England or Wales which attracts public protest: open.substack.com/pub/danielhowa…

Details of the closure of the Bell Hotel in Epping have been absent from the media. I have attempted to rectify that in my new series on the legal and town planning implications for England’s migrant hotels. Part one is here: open.substack.com/pub/danielhowa…

My latest article argues that Islam will win more converts in Britain unless liberals can provide better alternatives to the empty, intoxicated nihilism of what passes for 'progressive', intersectional culture today. Comments welcome! danielhowardjames.substack.com/p/how-britain-…


My latest article is a review of the Essex Cultural Diversity Project's climate emergency picnic and dance class, funded by the Arts Council, in Jaywick, Britain's poorest community. The UK's arts and culture budget is set to reach £2 billion a year. danielhowardjames.substack.com/p/the-ineptitu…

Jung’s Red Book meets the Gnostic Gospels in today’s gender ideology. From psycho-spiritual self-creation to Reddit confessionals and hormone alchemy — the mystic roots of identity are deeper (and weirder) than you think. 🧵Read more by Daniel Howard James:…

Part one of my new series for @genspect is out: Is gender a new religion, or a very old one? Covering the neo-Gnostics, identifying as divine, being made love to by androgynous self-impregnating deities, the Church of England and Queen Jesus on tour. genspect.substack.com/p/is-gender-a-…


My latest essay is on the facial surgeries which are part of so-called ‘gender-affirming care’ for young men. Puberty blockers are not for the benefit of the patient; they enable the surgeon to create a more perfect simulacra of the feminine. genspect.substack.com/p/puberty-bloc…


My review of 'The Broken Heart of America' by Walter Johnson. Could have been a good history book if it wasn't suffused with Theory. Apparently a white man can be professor of African American studies at Harvard. Where do I send my application? danielhowardjames.substack.com/p/book-review-…


A review of the book 'Cities Are Good for You: The Genius of the Metropolis' by Leo Hollis. An unconvincing premise, with very little offered to back it up. open.substack.com/pub/danielhowa…


UK local authorities have found a way to add billions to the cost of new housing, with hardly anyone noticing. 'Developer contributions' used to fund behavioural nudges challenge the Supreme Court decision that planning permission can't be bought or sold. danielhowardjames.substack.com/p/stealth-taxe…

My new essay: Town planning isn't causing Australia’s housing shortage, but government policy is. Tax and investment regimes will continue to disadvantage ordinary people who need homes. Most landlords are from the professional class, not oligarchs. open.substack.com/pub/danielhowa…
