The ringleader of a sex grooming gang is being lined up for early release under Labour’s soft justice measures despite being handed a 35 year sentence.
Arshid Hussain raped and abused teenage girls in Rotherham, and a judge said his gang had committed ‘devastating’ harm of ‘unimaginable proportions’.
But now one of his victims has been officially notified by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) that her abuser may be coming out of jail soon – after just 10 years.
The first lady of Sierra Leone has denied that she supports female genital mutilation amid rising anger around her perceived approval of the practice.
But in an exclusive response to the Guardian, Fatima Maada Bio, the wife of President Julius Maada Bio, also said she would not openly condemn FGM until she saw “reliable data” that the practice was harmful.
What a heel! – London council seizes social housing flat rented by Sierra Leone first lady
I CAN’T hold Rupert Lowe’s rushed release of his Rape Gang Inquiry Report against him, despite its politically convenient timing immediately ahead of the Makerfield by-election. I can however raise a cynical eyebrow at his vociferous disbelief that the BBC et al would roundly ignore it. Really, Rupes? You actually thought they’d fall for that?
The Restore Britain party leader’s independent inquiry was and is worthy and meaningful to the very many survivors, whistle-blowers, experts and distraught parents who contributed to it. Rotherham survivor and activist Sammy Woodhouse and her team gave its process a gravity of which I doubt Labour’s anointed national inquiry chair Baroness Longfield will venture within a country mile.
“When you come to Canada,” Mark Carney told newcomers in a speech addressing antisemitism, “you bring your faith, your tradition, your language, your story. You leave behind your wars and your animosities.”
It’s a pleasant, even pleasing fiction for millions of Canadians who imagine that a mythical “blank slate” exists for newcomers. The hard truth is that some peoples’ stories are welded to wars, and many of their traditions are centred on a desire to settle scores.
Joël Rubinfeld is a founding member and president of the Belgian League Against Antisemitism and president of the Jewish Coalition for Kurdistan. He was president of the Coordinating Committee of Jewish Organizations in Belgium, vice-president of the European Jewish Congress, and co-chairman of the European Jewish Parliament.
The government’s anti-hate bill, which provoked a bitter parliamentary battle with the Conservatives about whether it threatens religious freedom, cleared its final parliamentary stage on Wednesday and is poised to become law.
The new law, due to gain royal assent within days, would make it a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison to obstruct someone from accessing a place of worship or other sites where Jews, Muslims and other identifiable groups gather.
The bill also criminalizes the willful promotion of hatred toward religious and ethnic groups by publicly displaying terror or hate symbols.
This isn’t being done for the Jews and certainly not for Christians. It’s the LPC’s payment for the Islamist vote.
How much time do we have left before the hammer falls?
After almost dying from an attack by a Muslim migrant who attempted to behead him in the street, Stephen Ogilvie has reportedly awakened from a coma.
Video of the attack on Ogilvie, which you can watch at this link, sparked international outrage and riots in the streets of Belfast, ending in furious citizens burning down buildings that the government kept from their own citizens to house violent foreigners. The perpetrator of the horrific crime was a Sudanese illegal alien “asylum seeker.” Like the murder of Henry Nowak in England at the hands of a Sikh thug, the attack on Ogilvie has highlighted the disastrous effects of the UK government’s policies that protect and prioritize foreign criminals while punishing citizens.
“Thomas, have you seen the demographics of my riding?”— Melanie Joly, Minister of Industry
The above statement was candid, self-aware and breathtakingly cynical.
Joly was explaining to former NDP leader Tom Mulcair why the large Muslim voting bloc in her Montreal-area riding shaped her electoral calculus on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
After Restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe released the Rape Gang Inquiry Report, which documented the systemic rape and often torture of up to 250,000 young British girls at the hands of predominately Muslim rape gangs, SpaceX and Tesla founder Elon Musk agreed with calls for Nuremberg-style trials for the perpetrators and those who enabled the heinous attacks.
French activist and online commentator Thaïs d’Escufon says she could face prison for saying immigration is the number one threat to French women. In an X video posted on her page, she argues that her case demonstrates the shrinking space for free expression in France.
Europeans and American patriots!
Tomorrow, the courts of my country, France, may decide to send me to prison for daring to say on television that “the main danger to women in France is Black African and Arab immigrant men.”

A privately funded inquiry organised by Rupert Lowe’s Restore Britain party has accused British authorities of allowing organised child sexual exploitation networks to operate across the country for decades, claiming that political sensitivities repeatedly took precedence over protecting vulnerable girls.
The 219-page Rape Gang Inquiry Report is not an official government investigation and did not possess statutory powers to compel witnesses or evidence. Instead, it draws on survivor testimony, whistleblower accounts, court records, previous inquiries, and expert evidence gathered during hearings organised by Restore Britain.
It’s worse than thought in the UK
As riots triggered by migrant attacks convulse the UK, the debate over immigration in Europe is reaching a fever pitch. The same question is asked, time and again: If nobody voted for this, why does it keep on happening? In the past two years, migrant violence has been recorded—and in some cases triggered violent public backlash—in Germany (a toddler and man stabbed to death by an Afghan); Belfast (a man stabbed in the street by a Sudanese refugee); France (a deadly stabbing by an Algerian in Mulhouse); as well as Poland, Sweden, and Spain, among others.
Labour is moving closer to Europe, at speed – except for one significant topic where it could really learn something from our Continental partners: the ever-thorny subject topic of how to do counter-extremism. There, the pace of convergence between Britain and the EU is glacial, at best.
The current Government’s approach towards political Islam is not just light years removed from that of the Trump Administration, which has designated select chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organisations; it is also far less robust than the postures adopted by many distinctly un-Trumpian EU member states.
Both the political classes and the permanent security systems of many Continental countries now treat political Islamists as adversaries to be called out and confronted, both ideologically and at law.
The murder last December of Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old university student in Southampton, UK, apparently by a Sikh immigrant using a long tribal knife—which in deference to that ethnic group is permitted to be carried by Sikhs in Britain—followed by the near-fatal assault of Stephen Ogilvie in Belfast earlier this month, apparently by a Sudanese man, have both led to extensive rioting in those cities and raised concerns about immigration and racial relations in the United Kingdom to perhaps their highest level.
The Nowak killing was especially gruesome as the assailant’s brother called police to report Nowak for racial hate crimes, while the mother hid the murder weapon. The assailant himself claimed to be acting in self-defense after being assaulted by Nowak following a number of ethnic slurs. Police body cameras and recording devices yielded chilling evidence of the biases and incompetence of police. They handcuffed Nowak, who had been stabbed five times with the eight-inch knife. His protests of having been grievously injured were ignored and as he was dragged to a police vehicle, he died in apparently excruciating pain while being read his rights as a defendant.
A recent incident at a council meeting in Ivry-sur-Seine, on the outskirts of Paris, provided a striking snapshot of the tensions surrounding secularism and the place of Islam in French society. In protest against the ubiquity of the Islamic veil, a Rassemblement National (RN) councillor brandished a cross and recited a Hail Mary—provoking a hysterical reaction from a Communist mayor who has made Islamist communitarianism his electoral stock-in-trade.
The town of Ivry, on the outskirts of Paris, is one of the last towns still run by Communists, emblematic of what was once known as the ‘red suburbs’ surrounding the capital.
