If you really want to understand how Britain went totally insane, it helps to check in regularly with the Guardian, because it’s required reading for the privileged leftist twits who flushed their kingdom down the loo, providing them with daily reminders of what their shared ideology requires them to profess. Ban critics of Islam like Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, Valentina Gomez, and Eva Vlardingerbroek while letting unvetted Muslim men of military age flow into the country like hot lava pouring down from Vesuvius onto the helpless inhabitants of Pompeii? Check. Imprison Tommy Robinson for exposing Muslim rape gangs while protecting the rapists themselves from prosecution? Check. Allow aggressive Muslim men to pray loudly and en masse in the streets, blocking traffic in an obvious power move, while arresting one humble Christian woman for praying silently near an abortion clinic? Check. To your typical Guardian editor, writer, or reader, it all makes perfect sense.

Uyghur Forced Labor Imports From China To Canada Must Be Blocked
WASHINGTON — For nearly four decades, I have advocated for justice and human rights for the Uyghur people in the face of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) oppression. Its record of gross human rights violations is well documented, despite an extensive propaganda apparatus designed to obscure it. China’s use of economic leverage to expand its political influence is also widely recognized, with overt examples across the globe. What is often less visible is the breadth and depth of what the CCP is willing to do, and the lengths it will go, to sustain control and project power.
The Masks Are Off: How Europe Betrayed the Trump Administration
Europe has betrayed President Trump. For years, EU leaders and key national governments have undermined the White House’s agenda quietly, working to remove pro-Washington figures from power. We recently witnessed this in Romania, where Cătălin Georgescu — a clear frontrunner who favored closer ties with the U.S. — was effectively sidelined in the presidential race. In Hungary, there was a concerted effort to defeat Viktor Orbán and his Fidesz party in April. Now, anti-Trump Europe has stepped out of the shadows and is openly distancing itself from the administration, leaving it to face its challenges in Iran alone.
Shark or sea monster? The Canadian marine mystery that still intrigues experts 90 years on
Its head resembled a dog’s, its downturned nose a camel’s, and at the end of its reptilian body was the tail of horse. Witnesses say it was covered in a thin white film. When the remains of a strange creature were pulled from the stomach of a sperm whale, most of those present agreed: it was a sea monster – or at least something unknown living in the depths off Canada’s west coast.
Crews at the whaling station in the archipelago of Haida Gwaii assembled a platform of wooden boxes and laid out the 3-metre (10ft) carcass, using a white sheet to display the curiosity that had baffled veteran whalers.
Islamic sectarianism is warping democracy
Even before a single ballot has been counted, Islamic sectarianism has already emerged as one of the defining stories of these English local elections. Significant proportions of Muslim voters are expected to swing towards Green or Muslim independent candidates, and away from a Labour Party that could once depend on their vote. A new report by spiked columnist Rakib Ehsan for the Policy Exchange think-tank explains why.
Geoff Russ: Democracy can’t exist in B.C. as long as DRIPA is around
British Columbia’s Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (DRIPA) is encroaching on the democratic rights of British Columbians.
DRIPA, as developed by the provincial NDP government and defended by the First Nations Leadership Council (FNLC), has gone beyond the process of consultation required under Canadian law. Now, it has become a vessel for co-governance between First Nations and the provincial government.

An ISIS terrorist who was part of a beheading gang dubbed The Beatles has had his bid to move to a comfortable British jail refused.
El Shafee Elsheikh – known as Jihadi Ringo – is currently serving life in a high-security US prison after he was convicted of hostage-taking and conspiring to murder in 2022.
The 38-year-old had applied to move back to his ‘home country’ Britain so he could be closer to family and friends – despite his citizenship being revoked in 2018.
RCMP found no evidence of foreign interference in Alberta separatist movement, minister says
The RCMP has informed the Alberta government that there is no evidence the province’s separatist movement has been subject to foreign interference, according to the minister who oversees policing.
Mike Ellis, Alberta’s Minister for Public Safety and Emergency Services, on Wednesday attributed this information to the RCMP’s deputy commissioner, noting the update landed before the government learned about an alleged privacy breach involving the personal information of 2.9 million Albertans.
What did I do tonight you didn’t ask?
Today is Kathy’s birthday.
My iPhone put together a new gallery of Kathy photos without prompting.
I like to think that sort of thing is a sign.
I bought a little sheet cake at Farm Boy to celebrate her day.
Calgary police defend Punjabi signs amid backlash over immigration concerns
CALGARY — The Calgary Police Service (CPS) is responding to criticism over temporary signs that were posted in northeast Calgary in the Punjabi language as part of an effort to combat extortion crimes targeting the South Asian community.
In a statement to the Western Standard, CPS said it had placed “ten temporary signs in select northeast Calgary locations for a two-week period, which began on Wednesday, April 22, 2026,” adding that the locations were chosen based on current intelligence about extortion activity in the city.

Trump is clinging to a mirage in the Middle East
Well, well, well. For all the head-scratching that it initially occasioned, President Trump’s hasty abandonment of “Project Freedom” – his grandly titled plan to open the Strait of Hormuz – turns out not to be so mysterious after all. Trump’s reversal, NBC News revealed late yesterday, came at the behest of America’s Gulf allies, foremost among them Riyadh which told Washington that it would suspend the US military’s right to use its airspace. Now Trump, who has described his current exchanges with Iran as “very good,” is breathing optimism about a one-page peace memorandum that he claims will be completed by the end of the week. Iran, by contrast, merely says that Trump’s proposal is “under review.”
There is a lot more anti-Trump hostility in the UK press since the president’s remarks on GB’s viability as a partner.
Ottawa to pull plug on Arctic naval facility
Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government is shuttering a trouble-plagued Arctic naval facility, two government sources say – a project from the Stephen Harper era that was originally conceived as a major demonstration of Canadian sovereignty in the North.
The Nanisivik Naval Facility on northern Baffin Island was first promised in 2007 by the Harper government, but cost-cutting later resulted in the project being downgraded to a summer filling station for naval ships.
It ultimately never began operations, hobbled by delays, cost increases and serious corrosion on the deepwater port’s jetty where ships are meant to tie up.

Vatican stresses need for peace as Rubio meets pope amid strained relations
The Vatican has said it raised the “need to work tirelessly in favour of peace” in talks with the US secretary of state, Marco Rubio, who is in Rome on a trip widely regarded as an effort to ease tensions after Donald Trump’s repeated criticisms of Pope Leo.
Amid unprecedented strain on relations between the Holy See and Washington, Rubio was received by the pope on Thursday at the Apostolic Palace, before holding a series of meetings with Vatican officials
Vatican video showed the first north American pope shaking hands with his guest and addressing him formally as “Mr Secretary”, to which Rubio, a Catholic, responded: “Great to see you.”
