Piddington: roar of the Waitrose mums

Piddington: roar of the Waitrose mums

That sound you hear in the distance is the roar of the Waitrose mums. Piddington, a tiny, well-to-do village in Oxfordshire, has voted to secede from the United Kingdom over government plans to stick 1,256 male illegal migrants on a nearby military base. When and if they arrive, the newcomers will dwarf the 350-strong Piddington population by four to one. Long the preserve of the working classes, opposition to asylum policy is now reaching into the ‘centrist’ Home Counties. And all it took was for them to be personally affected by it.

E.U.-Canada Ambitions Face Reality Check

E.U.-Canada Ambitions Face Reality Check

The European Union’s invitation Wednesday for Canada to become an “associate member” of the bloc shows just how intent these traditional United States allies are on pursuing a more stable future by binding closer together.

“We must urgently reimagine our partnerships,” Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, said in the European Parliament in Strasbourg, a beaming Prime Minister Mark Carney of Canada sitting just to her side. But there are no guarantees they will get there.

Jamie Sarkonak: Steven Galloway’s accuser won’t even argue that she told the truth

Jamie Sarkonak: Steven Galloway’s accuser won’t even argue that she told the truth

The rape allegations that destroyed professor Steven Galloway’s career a decade ago were never actually tested. Indeed, the woman who made them isn’t planning to defend their accuracy in a defamation trial scheduled to start next month.

If it sounds like you’ve heard about this case before, you probably have. Galloway, an author and member of the University of British Columbia creative writing program, had an affair with a grad student older than he was, starting in 2011. Both of them were married at the time. It ended sometime in 2013 — and then, the student began telling people she’d been raped.

Masked men pictured on the streets of Nottingham on the first day of ‘balaclava ban’ as locals says there are not enough police to enforce crackdown

Masked men were still roaming the streets of Nottingham on Tuesday despite a ban on balaclavas coming into force.

Terrified locals welcomed the new rules but questioned how they would be enforced claiming they rarely saw any police in the city.

The Daily Mail watched on as several men on bikes rode through Nottingham’s Market Square with their faces covered.

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) highlighted the grants in an analysis of 2026 funding awarded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).

Zelensky’s strategy is national suicide

Zelensky’s strategy is national suicide

For Americans who follow the Russian-Ukrainian war, the past few months must look very strange. In the first half of summer, the story from Kyiv – and the many western media outlets that repeated it – was that Ukraine was winning. Then, not long after the NATO summit in July, Kyiv announced it lacked the interceptors to prevent a winter disaster. The country needed 300 missiles to survive, we were told. Even if these 300 missiles arrive, they are unlikely to protect a country as large as Ukraine from the sheer volume of Russian ballistic attacks and glide-bomb strikes. Now it’s September, and Ukraine says it’s facing a $27 billion shortfall in defense funding. There seems to be a vast difference between the public relations campaign and the reality in Ukraine.

Said the Spider to the Fly: EU Issues Invitation to Canada to Be Its First ‘Associate’

Said the Spider to the Fly: EU Issues Invitation to Canada to Be Its First ‘Associate’

For a while there, I thought petite Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney was just flexing his minor muscles for local consumption and the elections in Quebec where his party is currently polling poorly.

But with this latest move, I do have to wonder if this globalist agenda wasn’t his aim all along – glomming onto any excuse to move the Syrupeans’ relatively minuscule economy out from under the protective, and what’s been nurturing umbrella of the United States into the arms of the European Borg Collective.

Trump signs memorandum to identify and remove Canadian products from U.S. federal procurement

Trump signs memorandum to identify and remove Canadian products from U.S. federal procurement

U.S. President ‌Donald Trump ​signed a presidential ​memorandum on ​Wednesday to ⁠identify ⁠Canadian-origin goods ‌in federal ⁠civil government procurement ‌and take steps ​to remove ⁠them, ⁠the ⁠White ⁠House ​said.

The move came a week after Trump banned the import of Canadian alcohol, motorcycles and various other products into the U.S. in an escalation of the trade war.

In the memo, Trump directs the U.S. Trade Representative and the Office of Management and Budget to “take steps” to identify items of Canadian origin that could be “removed or made non-available for purchase” from the federal government’s procurement system.

Carney, beware negotiations with the EU

Carney, beware negotiations with the EU

The standing ovations and applause inside the European Parliament gave the impression that a deal between the EU and Canada was as good as done.

But Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, chose her words carefully.

The EU is willing to work with Mark Carney, Canada’s prime minister, to “find ways” to “open the door” to associate membership, she said in Strasbourg.

Trump suggests EU allowing Canada as associate member could be a ‘hostile act’

CHARLOTTE, North Carolina (AP) — President Donald Trump suggested that the European Union allowing Canada to become an associate member could be a “hostile act” and threatened to respond to the proposed move by imposing more tariffs on the bloc.

Trump conditioned his threat Wednesday on the “intention” of European leaders, saying that, “If it’s a good intention, that’s fine. If it’s a bad intention, we’ll put very heavy tariffs on Europe.” He also suggested the U.S. could cut off trade with Europe in certain areas.

Trump called the prospect of Canada joining the EU “laughable” and called America’s neighbor a “terrible trade partner.”

Canada Cannot Support Ukraine and Ignore China’s Support for Russia’s War

Canada Cannot Support Ukraine and Ignore China’s Support for Russia’s War

Canada needs to confront the war behind the war.

We cannot keep sending Ukraine weapons while ignoring the industrial lifeline that keeps Russia fighting.

Canada is making a generational commitment to Ukraine. Ottawa has entered long-term defence-production arrangements with Kyiv, including plans to manufacture millions of drones and deepen military cooperation. It is a significant commitment — and one that reflects Canada’s determination to see Ukraine withstand Russian aggression
