George Galloway outraged after ‘bank shuts accounts without notice’

Former Labour MP George Galloway has threatened legal action against the Bank of Scotland after claiming it closed his accounts ‘without explanation or notice’.

The politician and broadcaster alleged on X that the bank, which is part of Lloyds Banking Group, was acting unlawfully and attempting to ‘wreck my family life’.

Mr Galloway wrote: ‘Thirty-nine years ago, I opened a personal bank account with Bank of Scotland in Byres Road, Glasgow. Yesterday without explanation or notice they closed my accounts.

If nothing criminal has occurred they should not have the right to debank Galloway despised as he is.

Canadian intern was found near NATO supreme commander’s office, source says

The Canadian intern charged with espionage at NATO headquarters in Belgium was found in April near the office of the alliance’s supreme commander after a fire alarm was pulled by a suspected accomplice, a Belgian source familiar with the case told The Globe and Mail.

The intern’s unexpected appearance there triggered an investigation into her activities by the counterintelligence service of NATO’s Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe, known as SHAPE.

Before trial she’ll be released and perhaps allowed to return to Canada.

Either way she will manage to flee to China.

As Donald Trump’s trade war rages, Mark Carney looks to the European Union — and it’s looking back

Canada and Europe are having a moment. The timing could not be better.

With the Canada-U.S. trading relationship moving from aggression to open hostility, Foreign Minister Anita Anand was huddling in Ireland this week with her European counterparts.

Geoff Russ: Conservatives have ceded love of Canada to Liberal vanity

Conservatism in Canada is currently on a remarkable run, and a depressing one.

The best lines and policies it has pitched to voters are being appropriated and stolen by the Liberals, altered, and presented to the public as if Prime Minister Mark Carney himself had thought of them.

In China You Go to Prison for ‘Slandering’ History’s Greatest Killer

Mao Zedong, known as the “Great Helmsman,” was the most important founder of the People’s Republic of China. Nevertheless, after his death in 1976, the Chinese Communist Party tolerated criticism of his legacy. Even the CCP admitted that Mao had made mistakes, though it still claimed that he was 70 percent correct.

September 11’s Long and Bloody Geopolitical Road

For those of us who live in the Washington, D.C., area, the atrocities of September 11, 2001, were profoundly personal. I drove my children to see the scarred face of the Pentagon. I wanted them to remember that there was a cost to being American and that our way of life had been purchased in the blood of courageous men and women. Gazing at the wreckage, already draped in a huge flag, I felt a terrible sadness but great anger as well. That mix of emotions would shape our politics for years afterward.

Pete Baklinski: CBC platforms prof who says Clancy killings make case for looser infanticide law

Canada’s state broadcaster recently published an article on Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother accused of strangling her three children, ages 5, 3, and 8 months. In its Sept. 1 article, CBC News does not ask how a just and humane society should treat the killing of children. It gives the dead almost none of the moral weight normally due to victims of a horrific crime.
