Stellantis to shut down Vauxhall plant in response to gov’t EV Mandate

More than 1,000 jobs at one of the country’s largest vehicle plants have been put at risk after Vauxhall became the latest company to scale back its UK production.

Ministers have been forced into talks with manufacturers amid fears that electric vehicle (EV) targets will hit carmakers with ruinous fines.

Stellantis, Vauxhall’s parent company, said that the government’s “challenging” mandates, aimed at phasing out petrol and diesel vehicles, had played a significant part in its decision to shut its van-making plant in Luton.

GUNTER: Time to get serious about immigration if we want to avoid Trump’s tariffs

President-elect Donald Trump’s threat of a 25% tariff on all Canadian goods entering the U.S. as of his first day in office has to be taken seriously. Seventy-eight percent of our exports (and about 42% of our economy) are based on trade with the U.S.

Typical Muslim schoolgirl admits lying that her teacher was Islamophobic – which led to Samuel Paty being decapitated by other typical Muslims

Not if their head is still attached to their body

The Muslim schoolgirl who accused her teacher of Islamophobia and began rumours that led to a jihadist decapitating him in the street in France has admitted lying and apologised to the victim’s family in a remarkable court hearing today.

History and geography teacher Samuel Paty was murdered on October 16, 2020 by Abdoullakh Anzorov, an 18-year-old Islamist radical of Chechen origin.

Anzorov tracked down 47-year-old Paty and brutally hacked his head off after seeing pictures and videos of him circulated on social media as part of a ruthless campaign of harassment.


We had our own Hijab Hoax Girl, and in Britain teachers have been forced underground by bloodthirsty Muslims.

As I wrote of the Hijab Hoax at the time ... “I don’t believe this was any grand conspiracy by the girl’s parents or that anyone else “put her up to it”, though certainly her parents, community, the TDSB, our whorish politicians and the ever reliable media enabled her. She simply sought to take advantage of what she has been taught: Muslims are always the victims of Canada’s inherently “Islamophobic” society. When you teach entitlement victimhood it should come as no surprise that everyone from kids to race baiting grifters will be quick to take advantage of it with potentially deadly consequences.

John Ivison: Canadian troops sit in Putin’s crosshairs without the defensive weapons they were promised

Vladimir Putin made it clear that NATO’s bases in Eastern Europe are on his radar, when he said last week that Russia reserves the right to strike the alliance’s military installations .

The words must have chilled the 1,600 or so Canadians based in Latvia supporting Operation Reassurance, the biggest reinforcement of NATO’s collective defence in a generation.

According to people familiar with the mission, morale is flat, with many of the troops feeling exposed, under-equipped and forgotten by the Canadian public. The black humour in Camp Adazi has it that the Canadians would be a “speedbump” if the Russians attacked.

Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives keep finding dirt on the Liberals. They can thank their favourite punching bag

Does Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre have a secret team of intrepid researchers digging away in the backrooms of Parliament Hill?

After all, just look at how relentlessly the Tories have been going after the foibles and follies of Justin Trudeau’s government.

Most recently it was the controversies over Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault’s conflicting claims about his family’s Indigenous background that eventually forced his resignation.

DNA Contamination of mRNA Vaccines Can Integrate into Human DNA, Top Molecular Scientist Confirms

The DNA contamination found in mRNA vaccines can integrate into the genome of normal human cells, a top molecular scientist has confirmed with an experiment in his lab.

Dr. Phillip J. Buckhaults, a Professor in the Department of Drug Discovery and Biomedical Sciences at the University of South Carolina, carried out the experiment in response to scepticism about earlier findings about DNA contamination and posted the results on X.

Concerns about DNA contamination in mRNA vaccines – a byproduct of their manufacture that should have been removed before use – emerged in early 2023 due to the work of Dr. Kevin McKernan of Medicinal Genomics, a medical research company.

Freeland, LeBlanc insist Canada’s border is secure, despite Trump’s allegations and 25% tariffs

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government on Tuesday defended Canada’s border integrity.

President-elect Donald Trump on Monday said he would impose 25% tariffs on his first day in office due to excessive drug trafficking and illegal immigrants coming across America’s northern and southern borders.

Canada’s border is secure? That’s a delusional statement.

Russia advancing in Ukraine at fastest pace since start of war

Russia’s army has made its biggest weekly advance in Ukraine since the early days of its full-scale invasion, analysts have said, with its troops entering a key frontline town in the Donetsk region.

The gains came as Russia vowed a fresh response to new Ukrainian strikes on its territory with US-supplied missiles, something the Kremlin has warned could spark a nuclear war, as one of President Putin’s top allies said Moscow had no interest in a ceasefire.
