It's Friday - which means I'll be conducting another edition of our Clubland Q&A live around the planet. The fun starts at 3pm North American Eastern time/8pm British Summer Time. We'll try to pin down the rest of the time zones below, but do, as they say, check local listings.

On today's show I'm willing to take questions on almost anything - including, yet again, Joe Biden's inability to stay upright. Trump merely clutching the rail at an equivalent event "raised new health questions", according to The New York Times. But Biden's decrepitude is so total it can go entirely uncovered by the court eunuchs.

I'm also happy to hear any comments on my Statement of Claim against the UK state censor Ofcom over its "rulings" against me and my coverage of the Covid vaccines. My lawsuit against them is officially called:

The King on the application of Mark Steyn
vs
The Office of Communications (Ofcom)

However, despite the billing, I think it's me rather than His Majesty who's going to be doing most of the heavy lifting. We are asking the English High Court to quash Ofcom's decision on various first-principle grounds, including, inter alia, that what Lord Grade, Dame Melanie and their unlovely commissars did is illegal:

Ofcom has... misconstrued the statutory objective, giving it a reach (and therefore a power to act against this broadcast) that it does not contain. This has led it to exceed its powers.

Indeed. Likewise:

By the monologue [Steyn] was participating in a debate affecting the general interest. This concerned the efficacy of the third booster shot and whether it exposed recipients to a risk of infection, hospitalisation and death. He was expressing his opinion on these matters, on the basis of factual government material shown to the viewers in the course of the programme. He was entitled to do so in... strong, polemical terms. His speech was therefore strongly protected from interference by public authority under Article 10.

Also indeed. But the British people had the same right not to be interfered with by public authority:

Viewers also had a presumptive right under Article 10 to receive the information and ideas advanced by [Steyn]; and a right under Article 10 to formulate and hold their own opinions on the efficacy/safety of the booster shot offered by the government.

Many viewers and listeners have asked how they can support this suit against Chief Censor Grade and his enforcers. Well, aside from buying my new book, The Prisoner of Windsor, there are other ways to lend a hand, including:

a) signing up a friend for a Steyn Club Gift Membership;

b) buying a near-and-dear one a SteynOnline gift certificate; or

c) treating your beloved to a stateroom on this summer's Mark Steyn Cruise.

The post-Steyn GB News, now reduced to an increasingly unwatched Tories'n'trivia station, will not be joining me in court. But the fearless Naomi Wolf will. The "chilling effect" of Ofcom on public discourse is far worse than Canada under Section 13 or Australia under Section 18C, so once more unto the breach...

~If you enjoy our Steyn Show all-stars - Eva, Leilani and Alexandra - all three of them will be on this summer's Mark Steyn Cruise - because Ofcom can't get you in international waters (we think). No tests, no vax passports, but just a week of fun on the Adriatic with the aforementioned ladies plus Dominique Samuels, John O'Sullivan and other Steyn Show favorites. More information here:

~Whether or not you're a member of The Mark Steyn Club, you can listen to our Clubland Q&A live as it happens wherever you chance to be on this turbulent earth: Club membership is required only to ask a question. We love to hear from brand new members, so 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.

As soon as we go live, members should log-in and submit their queries via our comment form below - and I'll answer them as-it-happens on the audio livestream that should magically appear above (or possibly below - I forget which). And, if you disagree with my response, then let rip in the comments, and I'll endeavour to address a couple of the objections as we go along.

Clubland Q&A is a special production for The Mark Steyn Club. We're not paywalling off SteynOnline or any of that nonsense - and in fact this site now offers more free content than ever before in our twenty-year history. But Club membership does confer a few benefits, starting with participation in our weekly Q&As.

So see you back here live this afternoon at 3pm North American Eastern Time. That's 4pm in the Canadian Maritimes, half-past-four in Newfoundland - and, beyond the Americas, 8pm in London and Dublin; 9pm in Paris and Berlin; 10pm in Kiev and Moscow, now in the same time zone if not the same country; 10.30pm in Teheran, for all you Newfoundlanders who move to Iran for the half-hour time zone; midnight-forty-five in Kathmandu, for all you Iranians who move to Nepal to check out the quarter-hour time zone; 3am in Singapore, Honkers and Perth (sorry about that); 5am in Sydney and Melbourne; 7am in Auckland and even deeper into Saturday in His Majesty's Dominions across the Pacific.

But, whatever hour it is where you are, we do hope you'll be able to join us. To listen to the livestream, simply click the "play" icon on the audio player (in certain browsers, the audio will start auto-playing). And to pose a question simply use the comment form below.
