Greenlanders use Trump threats to push for independence from Denmark

Cranky Greenlanders

Greenlanders are using Donald Trump’s threats to take the world’s biggest island by force to push for independence from Denmark.

The Arctic territory’s main opposition party has described the current situation a “window of opportunity”, claiming that Mr Trump’s renewed push to acquire Greenland could help accelerate a breakaway.

Juno Berthelsen, an MP and foreign policy spokesman for the leading opposition party Naleraq, said: “We’ve been seeking independence for many years now, and there’s a window of opportunity here for us, where we could actually go into a dialogue about concrete steps we can take to better Greenlandic people’s lives.”

Geoff Russ: Immigration made affordability worse. Liberals gaslighted us all

Did the Liberal government lie about the effects of mass immigration, or simply get it wrong? It is almost certainly a heady mix of both. Canadians were told not to notice what was happening right in front of them, and they have every reason to be angry about the impact it had on their lives, most notably on affordability or the sudden emergence of shady “career” colleges in strip malls.

Preacher at Maccabi ban mosque said men can physically discipline wives

A preacher at a mosque consulted by police ahead of an Israeli football fan ban said that men can physically discipline their wives and that wives should not leave the house without permission from their husband.

During the sermon shortly before Christmas a preacher at Green Lane mosque in Birmingham said that husbands could resort to discipline as a “last resort” if wives were rebellious, and that men had a right to expect obedience.


Revealed: The letters that undermine police claims about Maccabi fan ban

A chief constable faces renewed calls to resign over the banning of Israeli football fans after letters from Dutch officials emerged, accusing him of talking “nonsense” over his justification for the ban.

Craig Guildford claimed West Midlands Police recommended banning Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from the match in Birmingham after receiving intelligence from Amsterdam about their behaviour at a previous game.

Influential China church reports arrests as crackdown on Christians intensifies

An influential Protestant church in China says prominent leaders have been arrested in what appears to be a growing crackdown on the underground church movement.

Nine people were detained on Tuesday after police raided their homes and the church office in Chengdu, in central China, the Early Rain Covenant Church said. Five had been released by Wednesday.

More than 1,000 miles away in Wenzhou, authorities began demolishing the Yayang Church building, video obtained by non-profit ChinaAid, which monitors religious persecution, shows.

Carney and Xi are buds.

Trump plots six-figure bribes to Greenland residents in audacious bid to seize world’s largest island

Donald Trump is considering sending money directly to residents of Greenland as part of his plotted land grab of the Arctic island.

White House officials are discussing a range of options between $10,000 and $100,000 per person to bribe them to let the US take control, people familiar with the matter told Reuters.

The population of Greenland sits somewhere around 56,000 and it currently remains a territory of the Kingdom of Denmark. This means that on the higher end the US could end up paying Greenland residents $5.6 billion should the bribes be massively accepted.

British police allegedly lied to avoid protecting Jews from haters. Sound familiar?

Policing issues in the United Kingdom’s third-largest urban area wouldn’t normally interest Canadians. But Craig Guildford, chief constable of the West Midlands Police (Birmingham being the biggest city under his watch) is currently in very hot water of a sort that some Canadian police chiefs should be, perhaps, as well. A Nov. 6 Europa League soccer match between storied Birmingham club Aston Villa and storied Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv, which was contested in front of roughly 43,000 empty seats, has become emblematic of Jews in the U.K. essentially being punished for their own persecution. And it happens here too.

The announcement was made at the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia, during an event marking the launch of Black History Month.

Looks like slimy vote buying identity politics paid for with tax payer money to me.

Top Democrats Are Agitating For Insurrection And Political Vigilantism

Forget January 6. It turns out January 7 might go down as the date when insurrection really arrived in America — not from the MAGA right, but from the anti-Trump left.

In the aftermath of the fatal shooting Wednesday in Minneapolis of a woman who appears to have tried to ram an ICE agent with her vehicle, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz announced at a press conference that he had issued a warning order to prepare the Minnesota National Guard to mobilize to “protect Minnesotans” from “rogue ICE agents.”

Things can only get worse: A Crowborough catch-up

AS SIR Keir Starmer slithers back into the saddle of his lacklustre leadership, there has been a deluge of messages from No 10. The sort of messages that presumably are supposed to instil a warm glow in the populace and inspire them to heave to and look forward to a sunnier future. What the circling sharks of Starmer’s own party think of his messaging remains to be seen.
