Doctor found not to be racist but “comfortable with discriminatory language” against Jews

Doctor who said Hammersmith would be better without Jews not racist, GMC finds

A doctor who said Hammersmith would be better if it was “Jew free” was found not to be racist but “comfortable with discriminatory language” by the General Medical Council’s independent tribunal.

Dr Dimitrios Psaroudakis, a consultant gynaecologist, has been suspended by the doctors’ regulator for three months after making dozens of racially offensive, sexist and derogatory remarks about colleagues and patients.

Anthony Furey: Students Are Now Assaulting Educators in Today’s No-Consequences Culture

A Hamilton newspaper recently published three disturbing photographs of women who had been assaulted. One was a picture of bruises across a woman’s thigh. Another was a close-up of the face of a woman who had been heavily bruised around an eye socket. The third was another close-up of an eye, this one a gash just beside a woman’s eye socket.

They looked like police evidence used for a domestic assault case. They weren’t. They were pictures of Hamilton educators highlighting the very real harms they had suffered at the hands of their students.

Poilievre proposes mandatory prison terms for extortion-related crimes

SURREY, B.C. — Pierre Poilievre says a Conservative government will establish mandatory minimum prison sentences for people convicted of extortion.

The opposition leader says extortion-related crime has skyrocketed with police in multiple provinces dealing with organized crime threats against businesses.

Poilievre’s remarks were delivered in a commercial centre in Surrey, B.C., where police say shots were fired at a business in November.

He should arrest Trudeau first thing.

Why the e-bike boom is raising fire fears

When Ollie, a delivery rider in York, England, got his first e-bike in 2022, it was a bit of a splurge. He bought it at a discounted rate negotiated by his delivery company.

Even with the discount, it set him back £1,000.

“The biggest issue is that e-bikes are expensive, and ones with safe batteries are extremely expensive, so many people opt for cheaper, less reliable and often dangerous batteries,” Ollie says.

Jagmeet Singh is super serious this time

Pity Jagmeet Singh’s communications staff, constantly tasked with finding new language for the same empty threat the NDP Leader has been making for years. Mr. Singh has to sound serious but not be serious; he needs to project resoluteness even though he’s the political equivalent of an accordion, bending in every direction and emitting sounds that appeal only to a very niche subset of people.

Earlier this week, Mr. Singh warned that he will rip up his party’s supply-and-confidence agreement with the Liberals if the government doesn’t meet its deadline to introduce a pharmacare plan.

Another ‘beer tax’ increase is coming on April 1, amid calls to cancel it

It is no April Fools’ joke. On April 1, a federal tax increase on alcohol sometimes known as the “beer tax” is scheduled to come into effect, meaning Canadians could soon pay more for their alcoholic beverage of choice.

A Conservative MP is calling on the Canadian government to stop the raise.

The alcohol excise tax is set to go up by 4.7 per cent, which Kelowna-Lake Country MP Tracy Gray says will cost Canadians about $100 million extra in 2024-25.

Why Military Recruitment Is Miserable

The U.S. military’s recruitment shortcomings have received significant coverage of late, and some of it is even informed. But much of that coverage has left unclear exactly why the military is facing this crisis at this time. The recurring suggestion that white recruits are opting out of service merely because of wokeness concerns struck me as insufficient, to put it mildly — so I reached out to two retiring Navy recruiters, Frank and Isaac, whose opinions I trust and with whom I have worked in the past.

What is the dark web and what can you find on there?

During the trial of Brianna Ghey’s killers, the court heard an illuminating text exchange between the teenage murderers Scarlett Jenkinson and Eddie Ratcliffe.

Jenkinson had been fuelling her fantasies by accessing murder and torture videos on the dark web. “I love watching torture vids. Real ones on the dark web,” she told her friend. But she wanted more and asked Ratcliffe how to get hold of live videos of people being tortured, for which you had to pay. “Why would I know?,” Ratcliffe said.
