Jacinda Ardern, the New Zealand prime minister, has announced her resignation – just shy of six years since she became Labour leader and almost immediately became a darling of the international set. Today, she gave one last emotional speech, and the global corporate media performed one last collective swoon.
A FEW weeks ago we warned about a significant and very evident correlation between Covid-19 vaccination campaigns in 41 countries (Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, Chile, Hong Kong, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea and Taiwan) and the excess mortality registered in weeks 10 to 35 (March to August) of 2022. We saw that in that period the excess mortality ranged between 3.7 per cent in Bulgaria and 25 per cent in Iceland, with a majority range of 5 per cent to 15 per cent (Spain had an excess mortality of 12 per cent). By means of a simple linear regression analysis Igor Chudov was able to show an extremely strong relationship between the administration of the third booster dose and excess mortality (the more booster doses are administered, the greater excess mortality); booster vaccination accounted for 40 per cent of the variation in excess mortality. The same analysis referring to complete vaccination (first and second dose) offered a similar result although with a lower explanatory power (27 per cent).
My run-in with the Rhodes Must Fall movement shows how little appetite there is for nuanced discussion of colonialism. Instead, activists are driven by hatred of the Anglo-American liberal world order
It was early December 2017 and my wife and I were at Heathrow airport, waiting to board a flight to Germany. Just before setting off for the departure gate, I checked my email one last time. My attention sharpened when I saw a message in my inbox from the University of Oxford’s public affairs directorate. I clicked on it. What I found was notification that my “Ethics and Empire” project had become the target of an online denunciation by a group of students, followed by reassurance from the university that it had risen to defend my right to run such a thing.
Remember when the Paul Pelosi story was big news for a while, then weird things started coming out, and then suddenly everyone stopped talking about it?
“This wasn’t about menswear to go about your daily life in – but an injection of preciousness for a particular demographic of men”
Well that’s a relief. I guess.
Has it already passed?
Those who make a business of projecting trends often neglect the acceleration factor. The march of history may be usefully described as “slowly” followed by “suddenly.” Yet we are rarely prepared for those times when history seems to “speed up,” and decades of change are compressed into years or even months. We assume that current trends will continue, and we are surprised when they don’t.
After the revolution, the real terror may be yet to come
On the face of it, any comparison between the woke Left of the 21st century and the Bolsheviks of the early Soviet Union is absurd. Whatever one might think about the ‘libs’, they’re not mass murderers.
Part 4: What’s Jail Like for Two Accused Child Rapists?
Part 1 laid out the horrifying facts of the child-prostitution case, Part 2 explored the LGBTQ pedophile ring’s reach, and Part 3 shined a spotlight on the state’s failure to protect the two little boys from suffering through serial sexual abuse allegedly committed by their gay activist fathers, who became their adoptive parents thanks to Georgia’s courts and child-welfare system.
Today’s fourth and final piece details what life is like in jail for these two alleged child rapists each facing over nine life sentences.
A slow painful death would still be merciful.
Parents demanded a Michigan school board member was fired on Tuesday after she tweeted ‘whiteness is evil’ and insisted Caucasian people are more dangerous than wild animals’.
Kesha Hamilton has written a series of inflammatory posts on the social media site claiming whiteness was ‘synonymous with racism’ and urging people to ‘be safe’ around ‘white folks’.
Hamilton, whose ex-husband is white, faced parents and teachers in a tense board meeting for Jackson Public Schools which required extra security due to protests staged at the school by a far-right group.
School board member of @jpsvikings has a history of making racist comments. She says whiteness is evil and causes trauma, calls white people stupid, dangerous, and difficult to be near.

Last September, Myles Sanderson stabbed and killed 11 people and injured 18 in several locations in Saskatchewan. Then in October Shaelyn Yang, an RCMP officer, was fatally stabbed in Burnaby , British Columbia. Reading about these tragic events, I found myself wondering whether stabbings in Canada are taking the place of shootings as ever more legislation and enforcement make guns more difficult to own and buy.
OTTAWA — The old joke is that at roll call, senators don’t know whether to shout “present” or “not guilty.” Very little happens in that sleepy sinecure that reaches the outside world.
Yet over Christmas, a clip from the Senate finance committee started circulating of Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland being grilled by Conservative Sen. Elizabeth Marshall, a former provincial auditor general in Newfoundland and Labrador.

JESÚS MARÍA, Mexico—In the predawn hours of Jan. 5, hundreds of Sinaloa cartel gunmen raced to this dusty town to try to rescue their boss from Mexican soldiers who had laid siege to his ranch, according to residents, gang members and Mexico’s military.
But the small army of gunmen proved no match for Mexico’s military, which used gunships to strafe the convoy of pickup trucks rigged with makeshift armor and high-caliber guns in the capture of Ovidio Guzmán, the son of former Sinaloa cartel boss Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán, witnesses said.
B.C. RCMP are releasing new details around its investigation into a bank robbery that left two suspects dead and six police officers injured in Saanich, B.C., last June, including the suspects’ motive.
Police said Mathew and Isaac Auchterlonie, both 22, had a goal to get into a shootout with police when they went into the Bank of Montreal branch near midday on June 28, heavily armed with semi-automatic rifles and body armour.
Investigators said Friday the men had strong “anti-government” and “anti-police views” and wanted to kill as many officers as possible.
The ruling applies to four Canadian men who are being held in the camps.
One of those men is Jack Letts, a Canadian citizen who fled his home in England in 2014, when he was 17, to travel to Syria, resulting in the United Kingdom revoking his British citizenship.
His family says they have no evidence that he was a member of a terrorist group.
The jerk’s Dad was born here but Jihadi Jack spent only about 5 minutes in Canada his entire life. The Brits were smart and stripped the parasite of citizenship.
Jack’s parents were convicted of aiding a terrorist after being caught sending their little jerk money.
The evil little bastard knew exactly what he was doing – “I volunteered for a suicide bombing, Jihadi Jack admits”
Jack Letts has told how he wanted to be a suicide bomber for Islamic State as he admitted fighting with the terrorists.
“I know I was definitely an enemy of Britain,” he told the BBC in an interview recorded in October and released yesterday. “I did what I did. I made a big mistake and that’s what happened. I thought I was leaving something behind and going to something better.”
Oh but then he had a change of heart… When ISIS started to lose.
