Russia blasts Canada over ‘outrageous’ war veteran reception in Parliament

The Kremlin said on Monday it was “outrageous” that a Ukrainian man who served in one of Adolf Hitler’s Waffen SS units during the Second World War had been presented to Canada’s Parliament last week as a hero.

Yaroslav Hunka, 98, received two standing ovations from Canadian lawmakers during a visit by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The speaker of Canada’s Parliament has since apologized to Jewish groups for the incident.

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said the episode showed a careless disregard for historical truth, and that the memory of Nazi crimes must be preserved.

German Eco-Extremist Receives Harsher Sentence After Launching Appeal

A member of the climate alarmist group Letzte Generation (Last Generation) has been sentenced to eight months in prison, the longest prison sentence handed out to a member of the group so far.

The 41-year-old woman from Cologne was sentenced by the Tiergarten District Court in Berlin after participating in three blockades in the city between October 10th and 19th last year, during which she glued herself to the street during two protests, Die Welt reports.

Initially, the woman had only been subjected to fines for her actions but later faced trial after she decided to appeal.

Liberal MPs were ‘very, very tough’ and gave ‘straight goods’ to Trudeau at caucus meeting in London, Ont.

The national Liberal caucus that met with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau behind closed doors two weeks ago in London, Ont., for its summer retreat “blasted” senior staff in the Prime Minister’s Office, some cabinet ministers, and their chiefs of staff for their attitude toward backbenchers, and expressed disappointment that the party has not defined Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, according to Liberal MPs present at the meeting.

I am not buying this, the LPC is still under Junior’s spell. The good news is that will be their downfall.

69% of French Support Mediterranean Naval Blockade

France’s appetite to accommodate the never-ending torrent of illegal migration flowing into their country appears to have soured. While the state has introduced border controls along the Italian border, turning away some 200 migrants each day, a new poll has found that nearly 70% of the French population supports a military blockade in the Mediterranean Sea to stop the influx.

Immigration and the Citizen ‘Ship’ Are Connected: Are We a Ship of State or a Ship of Fools?

We all come from somewhere. In fact, we are all either settlers or ancestors of settlers here. This goes from Canada’s earliest inhabitants whose ancestors came across the Bering Land Bridge 20,000 years previously to today’s new Canadians. But the Canadian Ship of State is not on course. Canada must not have such open borders to immigration – especially when it cannot get its own act together.

AOC claims reason she owns a Tesla and not a union made electric car is because ‘the vaccines weren’t ready’ during the pandemic

Viewers were left scratching their heads on Sunday morning as Democrat radical Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez explained why she still owns a Tesla despite claiming she planned to replace it with a union-made model.

The New York Congresswoman faced a backlash in 2021 when it emerged she had bought a $35,000 Model 3 from Elon Musk’s defiantly non-unionized company, despite several run-ins with the world’s richest man.

The mother of conspiracy theory

Naomi Klein is more responsible for Naomi Wolf than she would like to admit.

Naomi Klein, the poster girl of early 2000s anti-capitalism, is pissed off. Not with disaster capitalism this time. Not even with climate change, despite her belief that we’re ‘sleepwalking towards apocalypse’. No, it’s being confused for Naomi Wolf that is getting the goat of the Western world’s best-known critic of globalisation. It’s a little odd that a writer who believes the world is ‘on fire’ should be losing sleep over once hearing two women in a public bathroom in Manhattan mistake her for Ms Wolf, but here we are.

Africa: Carving the Golden Goose

“Reset!” That was the magic word often used during US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s first visit to Africa, with the message that “years of neglect” under the Trump administration were over and that the Biden presidency would see a new golden dawn in US relations with the turbulent continent. At the time, few people remembered that Hillary Clinton had used the “reset” cliché about US-Russia relations during the first Obama administration.

Firms pull ads from Rumble platform over Russell Brand videos

A number of large companies have pulled their advertisements from the video platform Rumble, where Russell Brand broadcasts his weekly show, in the week since allegations of rape and sexual assault against the comedian came to light.

The News Movement reported on Friday that Burger King, Asos, the Barbican and HelloFresh, the recipe box delivery service, had removed their ads. Brand has 1.4m followers on the platform. YouTube suspended Brand’s ability to earn money on its platform on Tuesday but Rumble has rejected calls to do the same. On Friday, Brand said the moves to block him from receiving advertising revenue for his videos on social media platforms have occurred “in the context of the online safety bill”.

The incredible meltdown of the Center for Antiracist Research

Professor Ibram X. Kendi has run into a spot of trouble. His fantastically funded Center for Antiracist Research – more than $43 million (£35 million) in the first two years alone – at Boston University is in financial meltdown. What happen to the $10 million (£8 million) from Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey? Where are the donations from discount retailer TJ Maxx, food emporium Stop & Shop, and exercise empire Peleton? Why did the centre lay off almost all its staff last week?

A Brand-New World for Free Speech in Orwell’s Native Land

It’s a country that gave the world George Orwell, but now, it’s a ‘Brand’ new world for free speech in once-great Britain, which these days specializes in doling out the unwelcome gift of Orwellianism.

Dame Caroline Dinenage, the chair of a British Parliamentary committee, has been writing to social media platforms Facebook, TikTok and Rumble, asking them if they plan to follow YouTube’s lead and demonetize the accused sex pest Russell Brand. On committee letterhead, Dame Caroline wrote to express the committee’s concern that Brand will not be able to make money on the platform and thereby “undermine the welfare of victims of inappropriate and potentially illegal behavior.”

Anger at British Telecom as top executive declares plans to cut more than 1,000 jobs in rural areas and replace them with urban diversity hires

Telecoms giant BT was last night under fire after a top executive declared that plans to cut more than 1,000 jobs in rural East Anglia while hiring new staff in major cities will boost its workforce diversity.

In comments leaked to The Mail on Sunday, Howard Watson, BT’s chief networks officer, suggested that a ‘significant factor’ in choosing where to locate major offices was the ethnic diversity of the area.

One Tory MP yesterday accused BT of ‘pandering to political correctness’ and warned it could be illegally discriminating against white staff.

It should be legal to draw and quarter such rats.
