New Direction on Instagram: "Roger Scruton was one of the most important conservative philosophers of our time. A thinker who defended tradition, beauty, freedom, and a sense of belonging as fundamental elements of European civilisation. With the words of PM @giorgiameloni, who quoted and remembered him during the Margaret Thatcher Awards, we wish to pay tribute to Roger Scruton, who passed away six years ago on 12 January."
