Top Tory’s fears for daughters over boat migrants… After a spate of asylum-seeker sex crimes Jenrick blames ‘medieval’ attitudes to women

The small-boats crisis has made British women and girls less safe, Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick warns today.

The top Tory admits he fears for his own three young daughters against a backdrop of illegal migrants with ‘medieval attitudes’ crossing the Channel.

His comments follow a nationwide series of protests by angry parents outside hotels being used to house asylum seekers.

Could cable cars help fix traffic problems in Canada?

Toronto Gondola Transit

What if your daily commute didn’t mean enduring bumper-to-bumper traffic but soaring above it instead?

It sounds like wishful thinking, but in parts of the world, cable cars or gondolas — typically seen at ski resorts or tourist spots — are actually used as public transit, helping people get around in their day-to-day life.

For example, Bogotá, Colombia, relies on the TransMiCable to transport people daily. In Oregon, the Portland Aerial Tram averages 9,000 rides each weekday, while Mi Teléferico in La Paz, Bolivia, has a capacity of as many as 34,000 passengers per hour in each direction.

Fallon Invites Gutfeld on ‘Tonight Show,’ Media Meltdown Ensues

You knew it was coming.

“The Tonight Show” is trying something new – extending an olive branch to the half of the country it wrote off in 2017.

Cue the wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Jimmy Fallon’s low-rated showcase, as liberal as any late-night show in the Trump era but less cruel, announced it would host Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld on Thursday. In a sane world, that’s hardly noteworthy.

Carney says Canada’s trade with U.S. is mostly tariff-free. But that’s not the whole story

It’s become a common refrain when Canadian politicians are asked about retaliatory measures or negotiations in the ongoing trade war: 85 per cent of Canada’s trade with the U.S. is “tariff-free.”

Prime Minister Mark Carney said as much on Tuesday and again on Friday, when pressed for information about his next salvo in the dispute with the U.S. after President Donald Trump imposed 35 per cent tariffs on Canadian goods that aren’t compliant with the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA).

“We’re in a situation right now where 85 per cent of our trade with the United States is tariff-free,” Carney told reporters at a news conference in Trenton, Ont., on Friday.

So no “Elbows” required?

GOLDSTEIN: Report finds antisemitism new normal in many Ontario schools

A federal government report suggests it’s open season on Jewish students in Ontario schools when it comes to being targets of antisemitism.

Equally alarming, it concludes schools and school boards are reluctant to address reports of antisemitism and are simply ignoring many of the complaints – or blaming the victims.

Dr. Phil Destroyed Bill Maher on His Own Show, and It Was Epic

I’ve commended leftist comedian Bill Maher plenty of times in the past for his willingness to call out the radical, woke left, and without a doubt, he deserves that praise because there are very few people on the left willing to say such things. That said, Maher is still a leftist and is wrong on many things. And on the latest episode of his HBO show, “Real Time with Bill Maher,” Dr. Phil called him out to his face, and it was pretty epic.

RCMP union pushes for changes to help attract talent from U.S., other countries

The union representing front-line Royal Canadian Mounted Police members wants the force to ease requirements for foreign applicants to help attract experienced police officers from agencies like the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation and counterparts in the United Kingdom and Australia.

The RCMP currently requires that applicants be Canadian citizens or have permanent resident status in Canada. Applicants with permanent resident status must have lived in Canada as a permanent resident for three of the last five years.


Sounds great but face it no one from any western nation will want to take up residence in the shithole state that Canada has become.

My bet is the RCMP will see a boom in applicants from ButtFekistan and Fekbuttistan etc. largely because they’ll be accorded special consideration by our elite.

Netanyahu: Invading Gaza City is the best way to end war

Benjamin Netanyahu said his plan to expand military action in Gaza is “the best way to end the war”.

The Israeli prime minister told a press conference in Jerusalem that he has “no choice” but to “finish the job” and “defeat” Hamas.

While up to three quarters of the territory is currently under Israeli control, Hamas still has strongholds, including Gaza City.


Some Local colour …

Hellbent on arrest, more than 360 activists of outlawed Palestine Action goad police to detain them – at cost of up to £3million for taxpayers

Militant protesters were accused of a ‘colossal’ waste of millions of pounds of taxpayers’ money after more than 360 deliberately forced police to arrest them by brandishing signs supporting the outlawed group Palestine Action.

During a day of chaos and farce, Left-wing activists swamped Parliament Square in London today in support of the organisation, which was proscribed by the Government last month as a terrorist group.

Hundreds held placards declaring ‘I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action’ in deliberate acts of law-breaking designed to overwhelm police resources and the courts.

Lots of domestic assholery in Montreal

Canadians favour infrastructure projects over regional or Indigenous objections

A majority of Canadians support or somewhat support national infrastructure projects, even if there is opposition from provinces, Indigenous peoples or environmental concerns, according to new survey results from Nanos Research, conducted for CTV News.

Seventy per cent of Canadians surveyed support or somewhat support national projects even in the face of potential Indigenous opposition, while more than half — 59 per cent — oppose or somewhat oppose Indigenous Nations having the power to block projects.

‘Is my secret camera working?’: Posing as a migrant to infiltrate a cross-Channel gang

The findings of a year-long undercover investigation into a violent migrant-smuggling gang were published by BBC News on 5 August – and, as a result, one person has now been arrested in Birmingham.

Here, one of our reporters who assumed a false identity and posed as a migrant, describes how he met one of the gang’s senior members in a secret forest hideout.

I am walking towards the forest near Dunkirk, thinking about the battery in my pocket. I’ve hidden the wires under two T-shirts, but is anything still showing? Is my secret camera working? Is it pointing at the right angle? I have, at most, three hours of battery life left, and I need to get to the smuggler’s secret camp, meet him, and get out safely.

Leslie Roberts: A Jewish man is attacked in front of his daughter, his kippah thrown in a puddle

Montreal — An identifiably Jewish man was walking with his family in a quiet Montreal neighbourhood where a large Hasidic Jewish community makes its home, when he was violently attacked on Friday afternoon. He was repeatedly punched to the ground, his kippah ripped from his head and thrown into a splash pad.

The assault, caught on video and widely shared on social media, shows his young daughter clutching his arm as it unfolded. He ended up in hospital. His attacker fled.
