The one and only Dominic Hilton – feral and vulpine, barking and tigerish, carnivorous and chameleonic. Hilton’s satirical column brings you politics with a side-order of Freedom fries.
The rise of Russia and its football
Following Zenit St. Petersburg's stunning victory in the UEFA Cup final in Manchester in front of hordes of howling Glasgow Rangers fans, and the upcoming Champions League final in Moscow between those two giants of English football - Manchester United and Chelsea - the football world has fixed its attention firmly on Russia. And it has realised that it knows next to nothing about the subject.
A cowardly new world
Democracy threatens not just autocrats but the jobs, egos, and expense accounts of its privileged critics. Dominic Hilton dissects a modern fear.
All governments great and small
London, 30 November 2004: speech to the Diogenes Club.
Are voters idiots?
The people are right – even when they’re wrong. That’s democracy. Why don’t leftists get it?
The new presidency
Bush is one of us, and we love him for it. Kerry? Don’t even ask. Dominic Hilton reads the runes.
All hail Bush!
The people have spoken. Bush has triumphed. All is well with the world. Dominic Hilton raises the champagne.
Today Boston, tomorrow all over
After the Boston Red Sox win baseball’s World Series, every dream can come true, says an over-the-full-moon Dominic Hilton.
The curse of the Bushbino
Dominic Hilton, ecstatic Boston Red Sox fan, asks: could their historic baseball victory over the New York Yankees be a good omen for John Kerry?
Is politics boring, Mr Prime Minister?
Dominic Hilton sinks his teeth into British politics – and recommends a career move for Tony Blair.
The truth about Bush
A flight to Washington, a limo to the White House, a stroll to the West Wing…and an exclusive report from inside the President’s brain.
My unselfish public service
In this election year, just one political candidate offers wealth, sophistication, charm, wit, enormous sex appeal. Vote for Dominic Hilton!
Slackers of the world, unite!
France’s latest publishing sensation – a hymn to laziness – makes Dominic Hilton realise that the real transatlantic divide goes far deeper than politics.
John Kerry: macho jock
Who is the real man in the US presidential election race? Dominic Hilton brings a unique style of punditry to test the candidates’ political testosterone.
Oil price blues
The chief outlaw is back in town - lean, hungry, dangerous…English. Dominic Hilton, roused to rage by the New York Times, takes on the world.
Is politics dead?
Politics was Dominic Hilton’s drug of choice. Then he found himself sharing his name with a soft-porn video star. It’s all downhill from there.
