	Simon Heffer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Simon James Heffer (born July 18, 1960) is an English journalist and writer.
		Heffer believes that Christianity should have a strong role in shaping both the moral foundation of society and public policy, although he is himself a self-described atheist.
		When the Home Office put Heffer on its Law and Order Task Force, liberal politicians were concerned about the direction that criminal law reform might take, with leading human rights lawyer Baroness Kennedy saying that the government "had not just lost the plot but was handing the plotting over to their most feared critics."

	Simon Heffer - Uncyclopedia
		Heffer was the centre of controversy in 2004 when he proposed that the people of Liverpool (criminals known as Scousers), were generally nice and well-behaved.
		Heffer's credibility took a downward spiral after the publication of the article, but went up again when he took it back and assured the British public that Scousers are indeed twats.
		Heffer is usually seen in public wearing a pink tutu and high heels, which has lead to claims that he is a complete wanker.

	Why the Daily Mail Hates Karl Marx
		Heffer is also incorrect when he then goes on to infer that in the market economy opposed by Marx "all prosperity trickles down to improve everybody's lot".
		While Heffer poses as the considerate humanitarian he might care to fly to the Sudan to tell the starving millions the good news that Dixons now have a 21 percent share of their market, with profits up again, and that it will all be trickling their way shortly.
		Without any justification whatsoever, Heffer claimed that Marx wanted to eliminate liberty and is content just like all the other shoddy scholars throughout history, to damn a theory on the basis of the deeds of those who later claimed to uphold it without asking himself whether they actually did uphold it or not.

	Comment is free: The genius of Simon Heffer
		Of course, what really upsets Heffer is not the shifting debate within the left about inequality, but his fear that the argument for 'narrowing the gap' may be being won on the right of politics too.
		So Cameron has bravely identified Simon Heffer as the root cause of Conservative unelectability: 'The attitude that he personifies -- that the Conservative party just needs to shout louder and hate the modern world even more -- is not just part of the problem.
		Heffer's claim fails the most basic fact-check, since the new Fabian report is here repeating the recommendation of the Fabian Tax Commission in 2000, an argument made several times since then.

		So it comes as no surprise that by page 34 Heffer seems to be agreeing with Irvine Welsh's memorable description in ‘Trainspotting’ of the English as ‘wankers’ and ‘effete arseholes’.
		Heffer hopes his New Englandism will see off both the hoi poloi and the toffs, and also what he regards as the hideous spectre of European Regionalism taking the place of nationalism under the hegemony of a Brussels superstate.
		In worrying about the fate of their favourite (royal) soap opera star or soccer team, the English mob have shown rather more understanding of what Englishness might mean in the modern world than Simon Heffer’s impotent prose.

	Brits Beginning To Rethink Gun Control
		Heffer documents several gruesome murders, the most recent involving a gang of young thugs who repeatedly stabbed an unarmed, 82 year-old lady to death.

		Heffer is correct in saying that the British government has definitely let the people down.

		Simon Heffer condemns the spiteful attacks on Mrs Camilla Parker Bowles and says that she will make a perfect Queen for the future King Charles
		For, whatever other difficulties beset Prince Charles on his long wait for the throne and during his time as king, we should be mature enough to admit that his second wife will not be one of them.

	Outside Story: Polly's Not Crackers
		Simon Heffer tells us today that he is one of a small number of writers who the Cameroons would like to upset.
		I can understand that because, although I often find myself agreeing with Heffer on many issues (though that may be more to do with convergence than a similar starting point), he is a member of the old guard.
		However if upsetting Simon Heffer is something a modern Tory should cheer, then pleasing Polly Toynbee is something any Tory should be wary of.

	Heffer on Seldon \| Samizdata.net
		The writer, Simon Heffer, is not always to my taste, given some of his Blimpishness, but he hits the mark here.
		It is a pity, as Johnathon says, that Simon Heffer's tendencies to exhibit Daily Mail-style prejudices obscure the fact that in articles like this, he can be excellent.
		I do not agree with everything Heffer writes but the same applies to other journalists but they do not appear to inspire the same level of sometimes prissy criticism.
