I have created this stub for "Candour", and will add additional information if I can.Nottinghamian (talk)11:23, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's hard to find solid information on this. LeCras appears to be an expert, and in his characterization, the magazine was "stolid and conservative" under Chesterton.It does appear to qualify as "far right" and/or dealing with "conspiracy theories" today (but it also appears to be little more than a website now). LeCras appears to imply that the shift towards the extreme right happened "right after Chesterton's death", but doesn't state this explicitly.

I have researched this because I have seen online outrage/dismay over Tolkien's subscription.In this context, it is essential to distinguish between the "stolidly conservative" magazine Tolkien was subscribed to, and the far-right publication that has grown out of it after 1973 -- it is well known and completely undisputed that Tolkien was "stolidly conservative", so it shouldn't be a surprise he was subscribed to a magazine with this flavour. But obviously the magazine's history after 1973 cannot be relevant to any discussion of Tolkien's political leanings.--dab(𒁳)08:51, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
