Locals left baffled by ‘Balamory from hell’ road layout
Bemused locals have slammed the use of “wiggly lines” in a controversial road scheme in Somerset, claiming the new layout has turned the town into “Balamory from hell”.
North Somerset Council started work on the new road layout along The Beach in Clevedon last autumn, with many local residents and businesses objecting to the changes.
The road scheme has seen a 400-metre segregated cycle lane installed along the seafront and the parking reconfigured. The road has also been made one way.
“There’s TMI [too much information] and then there’s whatever is happening here,” winced The Cut, the liberal American women’s bible. “A shrooms trip at Courtney Cox’s house? Blaming William and Kate for his infamous Nazi Halloween costume? Frostbitten penis?!”
This is the outlet that put the Duchess of Sussex on a special magazine cover in August after being granted exclusive access to her Montecito mansion. But far from being a sympathetic ear, it epitomised much of the world media’s reaction to the duke’s revelations in his memoir.
“I advise the French and directors of the Charlie Hebdo magazine to take a look at the fate of Salman Rushdie,” Major General Hossein Salami said on Tuesday during a ceremony in Zahedan in southeast Iran, where the heads of tribes, trustees, Shia and Sunni scholars, a group of respected family of the martyrs and a group of Sistan and Baluchistan province’s officials were also present

“After many years, a young Muslim took brave revenge on Salman Rushdie and no one could save him. Where is he now? Which situation is he in? We don’t know,” he added.
Besides addressing the crisis at the southern border, there is no more urgent matter for the new Republican House majority to direct its attention to than the conversion of the federal government into a progressive cudgel against civil rights. And there is nothing less surprising than the media-Democrat complex’s determination to strangle the probe in its cradle.
In the left’s playbook, everything is either about race or Donald Trump — if not both. So as night follows day, with House Republicans poised to establish a much needed Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government, Democrats and their press accomplices are framing the panel as an adjunct of the 2024 Trump presidential campaign.
“Yesterday the Wall Street Journal had a story about a topic I’ve covered before, the hollowing out of American cities as a result of changes brought on by the pandemic. One symptom of those changes is the decline of mass transit in major cities on both coasts.”

The terrorist who allegedly killed eight people by ramming into them with a truck on a lower Manhattan bike path smiled at the thought of his murderous rampage while giving a proud confession to an FBI agent soon after the 2017 attack, a federal prosecutor said at the start of his trial Monday.
Sayfullo Saipov, 34, repeatedly proclaimed his support for ISIS after the attack, including to an FBI agent who is set to testify at his terrorism trial in Manhattan federal court, Assistant US Attorney Alexander Li told jurors in his opening statement.
“He smiled at the memory of his attack and asked for an ISIS flag to hang in his hospital room,” Li said, adding Saipov was eager to speak with the FBI and provide a “proud confession.”
Privileged, humorless affirmative action recipient and infamous woketard Kumail Nanjiani is always cry-babying about something. Now he’s mad because Hollywood’s understandably terrified that members of the Woke Gestapo — like Kumail Nanjiani — will get upset if someone other than a white guy is cast as a villain.
The attendees list is a massive roster of some of the most influential and diabolical forces in the corporate, governmental and “non-profit” world. From the United States, this includes the likes of FBI director Chris Wray, the CEOs of Amazon, BlackRock, and Pfizer, top officials at the Gates Foundation and in the Soros network, and the Publisher of The New York Times, to name a few.
… The World Economic Forum is a fanatical political organization masquerading as a neutral entity, with specific policy goals that involve centralizing power into the possession of hand-picked global elites as the only means to save the earth from a claimed climate emergency.

Several high-profile House Democrats are poised to be removed from their coveted committee assignments as Republicans take control of the lower chamber and usher in a new era of priorities, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) confirmed on Monday.
McCarthy has long vowed to remove some Democrats from their top positions in retaliation for the removal of some Republicans from their committee assignments in the last Congress, such as Rep.

Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Adam Schiff (D-CA), and Eric Swalwell (D-CA).
Prince Harry’s family believes he’s been “kidnapped by a cult of psychotherapy” and his wife, Meghan Markle, according to a report.
Harry admitted in his memoir, “Spare,” that as far back as 2019, Prince William feared his brother “was being ‘brainwashed’” by therapy — sparking the final fight in their tense relationship.
