In Britain, you can be arrested for shouting “we love bacon.”

Happy meat won’t save the world. It may even distract from the real issues
When you last went to a restaurant, did you give the vegetarian dishes serious consideration? Despite knowing you’re “supposed to” eat less meat, did you glance at the tofu bowl, hesitate for a moment, and then choose the most tempting meaty option on the menu instead?
If so, you’re not alone.
President Macron said on Wednesday he was suing an American influencer who claims his wife Brigitte is a man to “defend his honour”.
Asked about his action for punitive damages against the hard-right political commentator Candace Owens, Macron, 47, said he was aware that he and Brigitte risked provoking a so-called Streisand effect — creating extra negative publicity by attempting to suppress it.
Despite naysayers and a longest ballot committee, Pierre Poilievre handily won his seat in Battle River-Crowfoot Monday, which means he will be returning to Parliament in September.
Up until this point, Prime Minister Mark Carney has had it easy.
Lucy Connolly has been released from jail after being handed what is believed to be the longest prison sentence for a single social media post.
Mrs Connolly, 42, left HMP Peterborough, a mixed men’s and women’s prison, with muted fanfare on Thursday after serving more than 300 days in prison.
She was jailed last year for 31 months over a comment made in the wake of the Southport attack.

Where was Canada when the world gathered in Washington to decide the future of Ukraine? Where was our prime minister when President Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Emmanuel Macron, and Keir Starmer took historic steps toward peace?
Major heart surgery is fraught with clinical danger and requires weeks of recuperation. But it is often a life-saving procedure, and various options to repair valves and widen arteries are available. The type of operation is determined on strict medical grounds based on factors such as age and health condition of the patient. The last thing you might need if faced with such a medical decision is some burk talking about climate change. Welcome to the Net Zero fantasy world, where a New York group of medical scientists and activists are suggesting such decisions could be partly based on saving the emission of greenhouse gases. The actual amount saved between two common operations discussed is said to be at most 390 kgs, about the same amount of carbon dioxide one human breathes out in a year. One human, it might be noted, among eight billion who live and breathe on the planet.
The IDF discovered documents in Gaza that show the overlap between UNRWA and Hamas. UNRWA staff took part in the October 7, 2023 atrocities, and several thousand UNRWA employees turn out to be Hamas operatives. UNRWA buildings have been used by Hamas to store weapons, and Hamas has even built one of its data centers under UNRWA’s Gaza headquarters. Now, on the basis of this evidence, American families of terror victims of Hamas are suing UNRWA for its support of the terror group.
In this episode of The Bureau Podcast, investigative journalist Sam Cooper sits down with Chris Meyer of WideFountain to trace the stunning global patterns of cartel, Triad, and Chinese Communist Party–linked networks penetrating legitimate trade structures to launder narcotics proceeds and move fentanyl and meth invisibly around the world.
Together, they examine how cartels and Chinese Triads exploit commodities, corporate shells, and international trade routes—controlling entire sectors like oil, seafood, and luxury goods—as part of a new hybrid criminal statecraft that links Mexico, Canada, China, and beyond.
Has the menace of veganism finally passed? No more pretending like a plant-based burger is just as good as the real thing. No longer will the barista put oat milk in your coffee without you asking, as if that’s ever been the default option. And, most importantly, no more insufferable lectures from your woke-inclined friends about how that cheeseburger you’re eating is literally burning the planet to a crisp.
Protesting DC police is easy when your race isn’t being killed
Just the facts, using Grok:
Grok can crunch numbers. That’s about it. Think of computers as calculators with pictures of our grandchildren. OK, you no longer have to punch in 80085 to see boobs.
White people are the only ones protesting President Donald John Trump bringing in MPs from the National Guard and other law enforcement agencies.
Canada’s Pierre Poilievre is back after an election loss for the ages.
The Conservative Party leader won a by-election on Monday in Battle River-Crowfoot, a Tory electoral district in Alberta that he’s never lived in. He can finally return to Parliament after the embarrassment of losing his own seat of Carleton in Ottawa during the federal election in April, which saw the Conservatives blow a more than 20-point lead to a Liberal Party led by former central banker Mark Carney.
A Good Morning Britain guest has sparked fury by claiming the St George’s flag is ‘racist’ and should be changed.
Controversial black studies professor Kehinde Andrews, who has previously attacked Britain and the Royal Family, claimed England’s national flag was deep-rooted in racism amid a row over a ‘patriotic outpouring’ around the country.
An online movement called ‘Operation Raise the Colours’ has led to communities across the country hanging up Union Jack and St George’s flags, including in Birmingham, London, Bradford, Newcastle and Norwich.
"Black Studies" professor says of British people flying the St. George's flag: "These flags represent racism. This is not patriotic. People aren't putting up this flag to celebrate Britain. They are putting up this flag to remind us that Britain is White." pic.twitter.com/HkD8aCLhqG

Swedish citizens are constantly being let down by their health care system. But rather than focus on improving services for their voters, establishment figures are considering plans that would place them under further strain.
Health Minister Acko Ankarberg Johansson said on Monday that the government does not rule out transporting Gazans to Sweden and treating them there, an idea supported by the opposition. But already, Swedish hospitals are being closed down, and their patients sent to overcrowded facilities, with women from six regions having to travel up to 300 km to give birth.
