Fat Bottomed Girls cut from Queen’s greatest hits to appease younger audience

Suggestive 1978 hit single considered by Universal Music Group to be too raunchy

Queen’s Fat Bottomed Girls has been dropped from a greatest hits compilation targeted at younger listeners.

The suggestive 1978 single in praise of “dirty ladies” with fuller figures was a chart success and featured on previous selections of favourite tracks by the glam rock band.

However, a new compilation of Queen hits released by Universal Music for a younger market does not feature the Fat Bottom Girls and its lyrics celebrating the beauty of a “heap big woman”.

Barbara Kay: Bring back the death penalty — MAID for murderers

Justice was served to the 11 victims in Pittsburgh’s 2018 Tree of Life synagogue massacre when, earlier this month, a federal jury recommended the death penalty for its perpetrator, Robert Bowers. Justice, that is, in my opinion. I’m not alone. Polls indicate that half the population favours the death penalty. But since capital punishment in Canada was retired once and for all in 1998, there’s no impetus for further public discussion here, as there is in the United States.

Canada needs a RICO law. Can we do it better than the U.S.?

This week, Donald Trump and 18 others were indicted under Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, modeled on the U.S.’s federal RICO statute. That indictment is based on an alleged conspiracy “to unlawfully change the outcome” of the 2020 presidential election.

For some Canadians, however, it has raised a more local question: why doesn’t Canada have such a law to tackle the international drug cartels and vast money-laundering operations that are also helping fuel the opioid crisis?

Why don’t we? Because Justin Trudeau’s commie friends have come rely on Laundering money through Canada.

The Sinister Theory Behind the Q in LGBTQ

The dark truth behind queer theory: pedophilia, incest, and bestiality

Conservatives have zeroed in on the T in LGBTQ as part of the ongoing culture war. But many may not realize the Q from the acronym stands for an even more extreme theory that defends pedophilia, incest, and bestiality, and advocates for a complete destruction of traditional sexual norms.

Q, which stands for queer, is rooted in queer theory, a sexuality ideology that began gaining popularity in the 1970s. Many philosophical founders and perpetrators of the theory have argued in favor of normalizing pedophilia and worse.


Hannah Arendt and the Disappearance of Authority

The disappearance of the fear of hell, Arendt tells us, leads directly to the institutionalization of immorality, and the transformation of the deviant will of a Hitler or a Stalin into state policy.

Flemish Farmers Aim To Mimic Dutch Success After Antwerp Rally

Convoys of tractors were seen on the motorway heading to the Flemish city of Antwerp this morning as approximately 1,000 farmers and assorted supporters gathered to protest government hypocrisy over the implementation of new nitrogen emission regulations, which they say will shatter their livelihoods.

This is just the latest example of agrarian discontent growing throughout Europe. The Flemish Farmers Defence Force (FDF) aims to copy the recent advances made by their Dutch counterparts with direct action against government moves to enforce new nitrogen cuts, which they feel will cripple the Belgian agricultural industry.

Assisted Suicide Surges in California

A 2021 law has increased pressure on the state’s hospice programs to provide assistance in dying.

Despite attempts by California’s disability rights groups, religious groups, and pro-life health care workers to provide patient protections from the power of the burgeoning assisted suicide industry in the state, there was a 63 percent increase in the number of assisted suicide deaths last year, and a 47 percent increase in the number of prescriptions for lethal drugs prescribed by physicians.

Majority of Americans say federal incentives are not convincing them to buy an EV

The majority of Americans say federal incentives are not convincing them to buy an electric vehicle – and some claim it has even put them off entirely.

Joe Biden has ambitions to make two-thirds of new vehicle sales electric by 2032. He also plans to build a network of 500,000 chargers across the country.

But an exclusive survey by DailyMail.com has found that this dream is falling flat.

‘Killing Christians Takes Us to Paradise’: The Persecution of Christians, July 2023

Uganda: On July 9, a Muslim man murdered his wife, a mother of three, hours after she became Christian. Ten days earlier, Amina Nanfuka, 31, while being treated for medical complications, had gone to stay with a relative. During her stay, a pastor visited and prayed for her recovery. According to the relative (name withheld), who had become Christian prior to Amina’s visit:

“I shared the saving power of Jesus, and she showed a desire to accept and to believe in Jesus but requested waiting for the day that the doctor in Kampala had given her for a check-up and thereafter attend the church.”

Small buildings won’t solve the housing crisis. Canada’s cities need to go big

You can’t fix a big problem with a small solution. And yet Canada’s major cities are aiming to do just that.

Toronto changed its planning rules in May to allow new multiplexes – small buildings of up to four apartments. Vancouver is now considering a similar measure. These changes are much too modest. These cities are delivering gentle density when they need to go big.

When I think large scale social housing projects I think Jane-Finch. Why not just shut the immigration door? We have enough problems now why invite more?

Tajik women turn to polygamy for survival

For some years now, polygamous marriages have been on the rise in Tajikistan, likely due to the growing influence of religion and the mass exodus of young men abroad.

High poverty rates and a tough job market have contributed to nearly 1 million of the country’s approximately 9 million citizens finding employment outside of Tajikistan.

Their remittances are a key source of income for many families and make up roughly 20-30% of the country’s GDP, according to data from the World Bank and World Economic Forum.

The world is slipping backward.
