A convicted terrorist is suing a pub called The Saracen’s Head Inn for its “deeply offensive” sign.
Khalid Baqa, who was previously jailed for distributing jihadist propaganda, is claiming £1,850 for its depiction of a “brown-skinned bearded Arab”.
But the landlord of the pub in Amersham, Buckinghamshire, has labelled the lawsuit a “complete joke”.
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is seen as Canada’s best option in dealing with an incoming Trump administration and progressive voters might be moving from the Liberals to the NDP, a new Ipsos poll suggests.
Ipsos polling done exclusively for Global News and released Tuesday shows Liberal support has dropped five points, down to 21 per cent, since September and is now tied with the New Democratic Party, which saw its own share increase by five per cent in the same period.

Jamie Foxx is at the centre of a growing row over a controversial comment about white women after previously being hit by a ‘anti-semitism’ scandal.
The star, 57, has landed himself in hot water after making the questionable remark in his new Netflix special What Had Happened Was… – with many believing he was taking a swipe at his ex Katie Holmes.
He said of dating: ‘Sisters, I’m here to tell you, I’ve been cured. I’ve been cured of everything, no more white girls. I’m serious, no more white girls. No more white girls. No more. No more white girls.’
Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland’s recent testimony before the Senate to support the government’s proposed temporary two-month GST holiday has faced significant backlash.
Senators criticized the measure as a flawed piece of fiscal policy driven more by political survival than sound economics. The proposal is particularly troubling because it could lead to unintended consequences, including opportunity pricing by grocers that may impact even non-taxable food items.
Lindsey Kornick at Fox News reports former CNN host Don Lemon insulted Time magazine as a “joke” after they felt forced to choose President-elect Donald Trump as their Person of the Year.
Lemon hosted a TikTok Live segment where he sounded like he was still hosting at CNN, lamenting that Time was taking a stand against democracy….by sadly acknowledging that Trump solidly won an election, despite every lefty claiming he would end democracy.
OTTAWA — Liberal House leader Karina Gould has tabled the government’s fall economic statement in the House of Commons.
… The document shows a much larger deficit than expected for the fiscal year that ended last March because of billions of dollars the government expects to pay for Indigenous legal claims and pandemic-related benefits and loans it doesn’t expect to recover.
The deficit for 2023-24 came in at $61.9 billion, almost $22 billion more than forecast when the government delivered its budget last spring.
It sucks, everyone knew it would.
The sudden resignation of Justin Trudeau’s finance minister threw his leadership into doubt and his minority government into chaos Monday after Chrystia Freeland quit just hours before she was set to deliver a key fiscal update in the House of Commons.
Instead, Freeland’s stunning resignation, her revelations that Trudeau wanted to yank her from the finance portfolio, that she and Trudeau had argued for weeks over “political gimmicks” in the fall economic update, and clashed over how best to ready Canada for the Trump administration’s threatened tariff war set the stage for a day of intense political drama on Parliament Hill.
Justin believes he is the Chosen One. He won’t do the right thing.
The alleged Chinese spy with links to Prince Andrew and who made connections at the heart of the UK establishment has been named as Yang Tengbo, a businessman also known as Chris Yang.
Yang, whose identity was previously protected by an anonymity order, can be named after a judge lifted the ban on Monday afternoon.
In a statement, Yang said he had applied for the order to be lifted in order to issue a public denial about the claims made about him. He said he was not a spy and had “done nothing wrong or unlawful and the concerns raised by the Home Office against me are ill-founded”.
Canadians could see some relief as they fill their shopping carts this holiday season.
After years of rising food prices, the cost of many pantry staples has stabilized — and there could be particular relief in the most expensive item on many Canadians’ holiday tables: the bird.
The price of a fresh turkey is trending down compared with last year, and it’s currently on track to be about 12 per cent less expensive than it was five years ago, according to a CBC analysis of national data from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada.
It’s one of the most successful ad campaigns in American history. It began in the 1970s, ran through the 1980s, and has been parodied ever since. I’m speaking, of course, of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has spoken out against the carbon tax for the umpteenth time.
Smith said the Alberta government is proud Albertans pay the lowest overall taxes in Canada and is working towards bringing in more income tax relief in 2025 to continue to help families keep more money in their pockets.
Federal authorities have finally stepped up efforts to investigate a rash of mysterious drone sightings that have been made nightly over a growing swath of the Eastern Seaboard for nearly a month.
The Department of Homeland Security and the FBI are deploying drone detection technology and infrared cameras to determine what if any threat the unidentified flying objects pose, according to ABC News.

So many possibilities I’m running out of tin foil.
Who saw Chrystia Freeland pulling a gun, after Justin Trudeau unsheathed a knife?
The finance minister is an unlikely champion of the Chicago Way, but she has just pulled off a coup that may end up toppling this government.
Just hours before she was due to give her fall economic statement, she quit.
A leadership bid? She may be popular among Liberals but she is nearly as despised as Justin by TROC.

Americans say they are ready to support President-elect Donald Trump in his second term and majorities give a green light to some of his controversial promises on the campaign trial. Yet the CNBC All-America Economic Survey also finds the public is flashing yellow and red warning lights on some parts of the Trump agenda.
