All about JAMES writer, broadcaster, polemicist
James

My name is James Delingpole and if you’ve seen or heard my podcasts you might mistake me for an English country gentleman with a large estate, stables for his hunters and a vast private income.

But appearances can be deceptive. Though it’s possible that I may be descended from the Welsh prince Owain de la Pole, my more recent ancestry is Midlands industrial - father’s side came from Birmingham, mother’s from the Black Country. And any money we may have had is unfortunately all gone. I do like riding horses, though, so that bit is true.

When I was at Oxford, trying to relive Brideshead Revisited, my Midlands background kept getting in the way. I now realise that this was a blessing. Because I was always an outsider looking in, I never became part of the system. Whenever I had a choice between playing the game or taking the piss (that is, refusing to take all the pomposity too seriously) I could rarely resist acting the Court Jester. I was like that at school too: always looking for the comedy angle, even though I was one of the clever kids who didn’t need to be the class clown.

My life has been
one of two halves.

In the first, I was an aspirant member of the Establishment: educated at private school (Malvern) and Oxford; friend to future prime ministers; a pretty successful journalist, broadcaster and author; I helped break an important story called ‘Climategate’…

And in the second I threw the first half away when I woke up, found Jesus and realised that almost everything I thought I knew about the world was a lie. That’s when life starting getting interesting.

Probably the world's best PODCAST ... the delingpod (obvs)
James

For ten years I kept badgering my son to read War and Peace. “It’s possibly the greatest novel you’ll ever read. You’ll love it! It’s a masterpiece,” I promised. And for ten years, he resisted. When finally he did read it, he admitted to me that I was right. “So why didn’t you read it earlier?” I asked. “Because you were so annoyingly enthusiastic about it!”, he replied.

This is why my advice to you is

“Don’t listen to the delingpod! It’s boring and it’s rubbish and you’ll hate it!”

James Delingpole's WRITING (Articles, reviews & books)
James

What everyone likes about what I do, I think, is that I’m really good at it:

I write like a dream; my arguments are cogent; my style is fluent and entertainingly digressive; and - most important this - I’m funny.

Our delingpodLIVE EVENTS information
James

My live events are amazing. Do come to one of them if you ever possibly can. Obviously you’ll get to see me on stage - being interesting and funny, with any luck - but much more importantly you’ll meet like-minded folk at the drinks before, during, afterwards. These are always the best part of my shows. Being one of the Awake can be very lonely. This will make you realise that you are not alone, that there really are people out there who think the same way as you do and that these are the best friends that up till now you have never met.

How to SUPPORT the work of James Delingpole
James

Doing what I do can be tough at times. But what makes it all worthwhile is the love and support I get from my followers. Without you I am nothing. Your kind words and enthusiasm give me the strength to go on; and your sponsorship and patronage is what keeps me afloat financially. When I used to work in the mainstream media, the money kept rolling in because that’s how the system works: journalists and broadcasters are paid well because - whether they’re aware of it or not - they’re a key part of the lie machine which keeps us all in slavery. Earning a living outside that system is much harder. I’m so grateful that thanks to your generosity I have been thus far able to do so.

If you like what I do, then please consider signing up to support me. Every one of you makes a difference.
