Violent offences committed by men who self-identify as female are being recorded as having been perpetrated by women – leading to claims that the practice is distorting official crime figures.
It was highlighted by the case of former police support officer Zoe Watts, who was jailed last week for a string of offences including building an improvised bomb and having a cache of illegal weapons including knives and a stun gun.
The 35-year-old worked for Lincolnshire Police for eight years.
Americans need representation that will stop acting like this is a government of, by, and for the corporations.
The quiet part is “I am ripping you off and getting even richer thanks to taxpayers.”
One thing that enrages voters and motivates them to support disruptors like Donald Trump is when they see rampant cronyism in the lobbyist infested swampland of Washington, D.C. But the reality is the swamp is winning and cronyism is worse than ever in Joe Biden’s D.C.
Amazon ranks second on the Fortune 500 list of prosperous and successful companies. Amazon’s founder and former CEO, Jeff Bezos, is now worth over $200 billion and ranks as the wealthiest human on earth. And even though he admits that he is rich because of government subsidies, he still wants more.
The destruction of the United States is all a nefarious plot to aid Israel, you see. On July 3, Omar Baloch, whose YouTube channel describes him as “the Scholar in Residence for Al Furqaan Foundation,” a Chicago-based organization dedicated to spreading Islam in the United States, published a video entitled “San Francisco Goes into Chaos, Shoplifting & Shariah Law.” In it, Baloch advances the novel idea that the Left’s ever-escalating efforts to sow division and racial hatred in American society are all designed to advance, you guessed it, Israeli interests. Yes, he’s crazy. But people believe him, too.
Thousands of people have joined protests against Cuba’s communist government in the capital, Havana, and several other cities.
Videos posted on social media show people calling for freedom, democracy and demanding vaccines to tackle the coronavirus pandemic.
The demonstrations, which are rare in Cuba, come as the country reports a record number of Covid infections.
President Miguel Diaz-Canel blamed the United States for the unrest.

I’ve been asked by the editors to write about a federal election this autumn, a subject I have already addressed in non-predictive terms in recent weeks. The government is in no danger of losing a confidence vote in the House of Commons and so there is no reason for such an election except a near certainty that it would give the Liberals back the majority that they lost in the last election.
Carve out some time this weekend for this WSJ piece, one of the best hate-reads I’ve had in ages. It’s long but I promise that it’s worth it.
How often do you a read a major investigative piece in which literally every person mentioned in it sucks?
London. May 23. An organization called The Palestinian Solidarity Campaign organized a protest against Israel. 180,000 people turned up. Placards compared Israelis to the Nazis, and black flags of jihadist movements, accompanied by cries of “Allahu Akbar”, fluttered alongside the Palestinian flags. “Israel, the new Nazi state“, some read; and “Nazis are still around, now they call themselves Zionists”. This kind of comparison is now common among many in Europe who also seem sympathetic to Marxism, in which there always has to be an “oppressor” and “oppressed”, never a “win-win” or a “making the pie bigger.” Do these new Marxists, who compare Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East, to the Third Reich and the Zionists to the Nazis, really not know what the Nazis did to six million Jews, or what Communists and Marxists today, in China, Russia, Cuba, or Venezuela, are still doing to their own citizens?
September 11, 2021: All US and allied troops have left Afghanistan and Taliban gunmen are already at the ports of Kabul; one more push and they will be back where they were in 2001 just before America and Afghan allied forces sent them running like rats jumping out of a sinking ship. Once again darkness falls on Afghanistan.
Or does it? Not so fast.
Wishful thinking?
On Friday, The Washington Post published a story headlined “TV news crews are increasingly threatened with violence on the job.” Nowhere in this story was any mention of the word “Antifa,” despite their repeated habit of attacking TV news crews.
The Loudon County school district has stayed true to its word and is repealing a Circuit Court decision to reinstate Tanner Cross, an elementary school gym teacher who was placed on leave after objecting to the district’s policy that transgender students be referred to by their proper pronouns. Cross was speaking during the public comment period of a May 25 school board meeting.
Remember last week when The Daily Beast published a “scoop” revealing that one of the men charged in the January 6 Capitol riot had a “fully assembled” Lego model of the Capitol in his home? It turns out it wasn’t true; the man merely had the unopened box set.
A London library sparked intense backlash after it hired a self-described anti-racist carnival troupe with a performer dressed up as a monkey with a large dildo hanging between his legs for a children’s reading event.
The U.S. Capitol Police will begin fielding military surveillance equipment as part of sweeping security upgrades as the police force pivots towards becoming “an intelligence-based protective agency” following the Jan. 6 attack.
Defense Secretary Loyd Austin recently approved the Capitol Police’s request for eight Persistent Surveillance Systems Ground – Medium (PSSG-M) units. The system provides high-definition surveillance video and is enabled with night vision. The system does not include facial recognition capabilities, according to the Pentagon.
A Washington Heights high school principal is facing a probe by the New York City Department of Education for allegedly discriminating against white teachers.
The probe was launched after faculty members at High School for Law and Public Service accused principal Paula Lev of discriminating against staff and conspiring to get a white colleague fired.
Faculty filed a complaint with the Education Department and also voted they had ‘no confidence’ in Lev’s leadership.
