“Criminalizing Dissent”
British Deep State Trained to Surveil Anti-Migration Social Media Posts
British civil servants are reportedly being trained on how to monitor and push back against so-called “high-risk narratives” on social media, such as posts opposing the mass migration agenda imposed on the country.
A deep state team within the Cabinet Office, the Government Communications Service (GCS), has been tasked by the government with combating supposed “disinformation” while simultaneously promoting the government line through “counter-narratives” online.
The EU’s censorship machine: Dutch conservative influencer Eva Vlaardingerbroek gets X shadow ban lifted but worries about DSA grow
Conservative influencer Eva Vlaardingerbroek has had her shadow ban on X lifted, but Brussels surveillance and censorship machine may just be getting started. While Vlaardingerbroek is a huge name, and X owner Elon Musk may have personally intervened to lift her shadow ban, similar help may not be coming for many other dissident and alternative media accounts across Europe.
Just found out I’m shadowbanned on X.
I searched my account on someone else’s phone and it did not appear in the search results. Only fakes.
When I finally found it, it said: “This account possibly contains sensitive content” and she couldn’t follow me.

White House considers political asylum for British ‘thought criminals’
The White House is considering offering political asylum to British “thought criminals”, The Telegraph understands.
Donald Trump’s administration is exploring the possibility of extending refugee status to free speech activists who have been prosecuted for their words or for taking part in silent protests outside abortion clinics.
The censoring of pro-life campaigners Livia Tossici-Bolt and Adam Smith Connor raised particular concerns among the president’s key allies.
Top soldier has second thoughts about recruiting public servants for reserves
Canada’s top soldier appears to be having second thoughts about recruiting public servants to augment reserve forces, adding they are already doing enough for defence.
Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Jennie Carignan and defence deputy minister Stefanie Beck signed a document on May 30, 2025, launching a plan to boost both the reserves and what is known as the Supplementary Reserve.
Ottawa must be fearing a Nepal style insurrection one reader suggested.
Speechcrime
On Britain’s authoritarian turn
It is only appropriate that the head of Britain’s government should be Keir Starmer, a human rights lawyer and former head of the nation’s prosecuting authorities, because Britain now prosecutes its own citizens—if they say the wrong things. The ideology and culture of human rights, whether by design or not, have served to make the country safer for criminals, increase mass illegal immigration, curtail freedom of speech, and entrench a sprawling ideological bureaucracy.
Crown Files Appeal Against Sentencing, Acquittals of Freedom Convoy Organizers Lich and Barber
The Crown has filed appeals against the sentencing and acquittals of intimidation charges for Freedom Convoy organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber.
The Crown is seeking to replace Barber’s 18-month conditional sentence with a harsher penalty, and has asked the Court of Appeal to either enter a conviction on the intimidation charge or order a new trial on that count, according to a release from the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF).

Tommy Robinson cleared of terror offence after not giving police access to his phone
Far-right activist Tommy Robinson has been found not guilty of a terror offence after refusing to give police access to his phone in July 2024.
The 42-year-old, who was charged under his real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was stopped by officers at the Channel Tunnel in Folkestone while driving a friend’s silver Bentley to Benidorm, Spain.

Amy Hamm: Not even parents can escape the speech police at B.C. schools
Who raises our children in B.C.? Parents, or schoolteachers and administrators? The latter two seem to think it’s their right. Examples abound.
Because of her political views, B.C. mother Bryony Dixon was barred last year from hosting students with her school district’s international homestay program. She responded by filing a complaint with the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal (BCHRT). She alleges discrimination on the basis of political belief.
“New Tech Launch” sounds so much nicer than “Surveillance State Citizen Criminalization Cameras”
WRPS hosting public info sessions ahead of new tech launch
In an effort to remain transparent, Waterloo Region Police Service (WRPS) will be hosting several public information sessions ahead of the installation of new closed-circuit television (CCTV) and automated license plate recognition (ALPR) technology.
WRPS plan to use new CCTV equipped with ALPR systems to help prevent and investigate crime.

Freedom Convoy leaders Lich, Barber given conditional sentences
Tamara Lich is not going to jail.
Nor is her Freedom Convoy sidekick Chris Barber.
Ontario Court Justice Heather Perkins-McVey told a packed courtroom Tuesday afternoon in Ottawa that the leaders of the 2022 trucker’s Freedom Convoy sentences will be served in the community and not behind bars.
GRAHAM: In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder, Canadians should reject Liberal censorship
On Sept. 10, political commentator Charlie Kirk was assassinated. He did not just die, he did not euphemistically “pass away.” He was murdered in cold blood. Even worse, he was viciously gunned down as he participated in the very thing he advocated for: Free and civil debate.
As a society, we have a duty to condemn this violence as barbaric, unjust and anti-human. Not only has some of the Canadian media failed at this basic task, but their response has revealed a pathogen that has infected our culture and politics: The coercive spirit of censorship.
RCMP tried to get photojournalist Amber Bracken charged and detained without bail, documents show
The RCMP wanted a well-known photojournalist kept in custody for months or more after Mounties alleged she assaulted a sheriff following her high-profile arrest at the 2021 Wet’suwet’en pipeline standoff.
Documents filed with the B.C. Supreme Court as part of a civil suit launched by photographer Amber Bracken and The Narwhal media outlet against the RCMP showed how the Mounties tried – and quickly failed – to get Ms. Bracken charged and detained without bail for an incident related to her release from three nights in jail.
Free Speech Under Attack in the U.K.
The country’s censorship regime is targeting ordinary Britons.
“Free speech is at the lowest ebb it has been in Britain since the eighteenth century,” the U.K. Free Speech Union’s founder and president Toby Young, recently ennobled, told me over lunch at the House of Lords last week. The Peers’ Dining Room was sedate—the average age in the upper house of Britain’s parliament is 70—but beyond the Palace of Westminster’s well-guarded gates, the United Kingdom is in crisis, especially in the realm of free expression. Since Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party returned to power last year, Young’s organization—which offers advocacy and representation for people facing consequences for their speech—has seen membership skyrocket. It’s risen from 14,000 in July 2024 to 35,000 now, he says, alongside a record number of requests for help.
The ruling class must fear rebellion and retribution for their traitorous crimes.
