Yes, it's me! Mark Steyn of that ilk - back for another hour of questions from Mark Steyn Club members around the planet. We start at 3pm North American Eastern - which is 8pm in the British Isles and 9pm in western and central Europe.
Lots going on in the world, and I'm happy to take questions on whatever tickles your fancy. In America the Shutdown is two points up in Iowa and looking at a midterm landslide. In Dublin last night, the brutal rape of a ten-year-old girl provoked a brief riot against the authorities. But don't worry, the politico-media class are all agreed it's the girl's fault:
How is it appropriate to release this information, vilification of a ten year old? @rtenews onboard with goverment strategy of victim blaming. https://t.co/PEW7Dn7YtI pic.twitter.com/2GRMYRrWCX

Would the allegedly alleged perpetrator be anything to do with all the vibrant diversity that has so enriched the Emerald Isle? Well, it's reported that he requires an Arabic translator. But no doubt that's the girl's fault, too...
For the moment you can listen to our show live from almost anywhere you chance to be on this turbulent earth. Starting next week, in compliance with Cruella von der Leyen and the European Commission, Clubland Q&A will be distributed exclusively by fax machine. So install yours today!
Membership of The Mark Steyn Club is required only if you wish to ask a question. We love to hear from brand new members, and especially appreciate those who are having such a grand time around these parts that they've signed up a chum for a Steyn Club Gift Membership. Among the additions to our ranks in recent days are newbies from around the planet - from Auckland to Zurich, Great Yarmouth to Grande Prairie, Paris to Paw Paw. If you've joined this week either for a full year or a see-how-it-goes experimental quarter, do shoot me a head-scratcher for today's show.
But, if you're not interested in joining, no worries, as they say in Oz: We seek no unwilling members - and as always the show is free to listen to, so we hope you'll want to tune in. So see you back here at 3pm North American Eastern - which is 8pm in London and Dublin, 9pm in Paris and Berlin, 10pm in Kiev and Jerusalem; half-past-ten in Teheran; midnight-forty-five in Kathmandu; 3am in Singapore and Honkers (sorry about that); 5am in Sydney and Melbourne; 7am in Auckland, and a far more civilised hour for the kippers and kedgeree in His Majesty's Dominions eastward across the Pacific, where you're so far ahead Michael E Mann's probably lost his appeal by now...
