Dispatch: French town caught up in ‘war’ between police and migrants

For years, residents of Grand-Fort-Philippe in the north of France lived a life largely undisturbed by migrants who attempted crossings from their local beaches.

Relations were cordial even.

Many in the town would exchange polite bonjours with the men, women and children biding their time in the small seaside town located between Calais and Dunkirk until weather conditions turned in their favour.

Poilievre asks Sell-Out Singh to pull support for Liberal government to prompt fall election

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has written a letter to his NDP counterpart asking Jagmeet Singh to pull his party’s support for the Liberal government so Canadians can go to the polls this fall instead of next year as planned.

“Canadians can’t afford or even endure another year of this costly coalition. No one voted for you to keep Trudeau in power. You do not have a mandate to drag out his government another year,” Poilievre wrote in his letter.

“Pull out of the costly coalition and vote non-confidence in the government this September to trigger a carbon tax election in October of THIS YEAR. Or you will forever be known as “Sell-Out Singh,'” Poilievre said.

Italy’s Meloni Scores a Victory on Illegal Immigration as the Rest of Europe Is Reeling

Can someone please put this woman in charge of the southern border, and pronto? Based on her recent success in staunching the flow of illegal migrants, the prime minister of Italy, Giorgia Meloni, might work wonders where Vice President Harris has, for the most part, failed.

Battle brewing between auditor general and House of Commons over ‘green slush fund’ documents

OTTAWA – A parliamentary battle is brewing between the House of Commons and Auditor General Karen Hogan, who has so far refused to comply with an order demanding she hand over documents relating to her scathing audit of the so-called “green slush fund.”

Parliament’s halls may be sleepy during the quiet summer months, but drama has been building between the House of Commons, the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) and, to a lesser degree, the RCMP over a motion adopted by MPs nearly three months ago.

WHO Removes Hundreds of Monkeypox Deaths as Case Fatality Rate Drops to 0.2%. Some “Global Emergency”

Public health responses are most effective when they are grounded in reality. This is particularly important if the response is intended to address an ‘emergency’ and involves the transfer of large amounts of public money. When we reallocate resources, there is a cost, as the funds are taken from some other programme. If the response involves buying lots of products from a manufacturer, there will also be a gain for the company and its investors.

“There is no place for Orwell’s ‘thought police’ in 21st century Britain”: An Interview with Isabel Vaughn-Spruce

Isabel Vaughn-Spruce is a peaceful, law-abiding woman—but she has been arrested twice for praying silently near an abortion centre in Birmingham, England. In a rare bit of good news for freedom of speech, she has just received a payout of £13,000 from the West Midlands Police “in acknowledgement of her unjust treatment and the breach of her human rights” after she issued a claim alleging “two wrongful arrests and false imprisonments; assault and battery in relation to an intrusive search of her person; and for a breach of her human rights both in respect to the arrests, and to the onerous bail conditions imposed on her.”
