Leicester: a powder keg waiting to explode

Last year’s riots revealed the folly of celebrating diversity without forging shared values.

It is one year on from the violent unrest in Leicester, which by mid-September had culminated in large-scale public disorder. This was when gangs of masked Muslim and Hindu youths fought each other on the normally quiet suburban streets of this English city.

After the unrest, there was no shortage of police activity. Around 150 people have been either arrested or interviewed under caution, and prosecutors have secured a string of weapons-related convictions.

John Ivison: Ottawa fiddles around on firefighting while wildfires burn

Canada’s summer of wildfires has exposed its political leaders as participants in a never-ending roundtable, jabbering about solutions while the country burns.

It must be clear even to this federal government that it cannot keep calling on its combat professionals to sling sandbags and mopping up after fires if it wants to have any level of operational readiness during a period of heightened geopolitical tensions.

Ukraine Demands Extradition of Its Draft-Age Men

Neither the Austrian, nor the Czech government is willing to bow to Ukraine’s demands and extradite Ukrainian men who have fled the war-torn country. “That would be a massive interference in our sovereignty, we would never do that,” a spokesman for the Austrian Interior Ministry said to Exxpress on September 7th. “Such a request would likely contravene Czech law, making it impossible to approve it,” the Czech Justice Ministry stated in the Prague Monitor.

Trudeau says he wanted G20 to take stronger stand against Russia on war in Ukraine … but no one wanted to talk to him

They made Justin cry.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says if it were up to him, the G20 leaders’ declaration on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine would have been much stronger.

At a closing summit news conference on Sunday, Trudeau said, however, that if other leaders had their way, the declaration would have been much weaker.

“If it was just up to me, it would have been stronger, he said.

“But they sent me for a time-out when I started to cry.”

MORGAN: Trudeau is directly responsible for Canada’s housing crisis

Canada needs to have a serious discussion about its immigration levels and fast.

It’s a subject conservative politicians shy away from as they will inevitably be accused of racism and progressive politicians won’t discuss because it’s such an effective wedge against Conservatives.

The politics must stop and reality must set in.

Canada’s heading into a socioeconomic crisis due to immigration policies.

GUNTER: Trudeau Liberals, BoC’s Macklem seem economically illiterate

It’s not that the Liberals’ record-high immigration is causing inflation, housing unaffordability and unemployment all by itself. Nor are the federal government’s two carbon taxes solely responsible for the rising cost of living. The Bank of Canada’s willingness to print money for the Trudeau government to spend and the bank’s string of interest rate hikes aren’t the only causes, either.

But you roll all of those together and you end up with an economic crisis the likes of which Canada has not seen since the early 1990s.

Dead-celebrity market worth US$2.25 billion

‘Deleb’ (as in dead celebrity) is a label used in show-business to describe a deceased star, celebrity, or artist whose estate continues to bring in the big bucks long after their death.

In 2013, it was reported by CBC that the ‘Deleb market’ was worth a whopping US$2.25 billion in annual licensing and revenues. Goodness knows how much the market would generate today – a decade later.

If Your Kid Can’t Read This, Thank a Teachers Union

Teachers insisted their jobs were not ‘essential.’ Now plenty of students feel that way too.

The 2022-2023 school year, close to 10 percent of nation’s K-12 students did not attend classes on the average day, The New York Times‘ David Leonhardt reported in his newsletter. A quarter of students are chronically absent. “That’s a vastly higher share than before COVID.”

The biggest reason truancy is on the rise, Leonhardt posits, “seems to be simply that students have fallen out of the habit of going to school every day.”

In Canada Teachers insist they are essential but teaching isn’t, unless it’s about changing your gender or learning to dress in drag.

The WEF and the Climate Cult: Colluding for a World-wide Welfare State

One should never underestimate the Left’s propensity for projecting its sins upon its victims; nor, when the Left does manage to admit the destructive effects of their regressive ideology, to proclaim these disastrous consequences as fundamental transformational and “liberation.” To avoid such a fraught misunderstanding, one must ever remember the Left perverts the purported rationale of every entity captured in their “long march” through the institutions.

To wit: The World Economic Forum (WEF).

From Kublai to Xi: Old and New Silk Road

Ten years ago, Chinese President Xi Jinping issued an “edict” to create a global network of infrastructure, commerce and communication initially labeled “One Belt One Road”.

Later dubbed “The New Silk Road,” the project reminded some of China’s 13th century Mongol Emperor Kublai Khan, who ordained the building of Xanadu, a vanity palace which the French call “une folie”.

Although similar in method by using an edict or “tughra” in the Mongolian language, Kublai’s vanity project is dwarfed by Xi’s folie, which is supposed to encompass every county on earth.

Vatican beatifies Polish family that sheltered Jews

The Vatican on Sunday beatified an entire family for the first time to honor it for giving shelter to Jews during World War II while Poland was under German occupation.

Jozef Ulma, 44, his pregnant wife Wiktoria, 31, and their children, all under 8 years of age, were killed by German police on March 24, 1944, after being betrayed to Nazi authorities for sheltering eight Jewish people in their attic. The eight Jews were also killed.

After the massacre at the Ulmas’ farmhouse, 24 Jews in the family’s hometown of Markowa in southeast Poland were murdered by their Polish neighbors.
