The public health watchdog has been accused of a “cover-up” after refusing to publish data that could link the Covid vaccine to excess deaths.
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) argued that releasing the data would lead to the “distress or anger” of bereaved relatives if a link were to be discovered.
Public health officials also argued that publishing the data risked damaging the well-being and mental health of the families and friends of people who died.
The Great British high street is now synonymous with decay, crime and exploitation.
Little exemplifies the UK’s decline as much as the death of the great British high street. With nothing left to buy or browse, they have become anti-social, run-down and depressing. And yet liberal journalists and establishment politicians remain in complete denial. Either they are truly ignorant of what is going on in Britain’s most disadvantaged communities, or they simply don’t care.
British voters across the political spectrum are much more likely to hold strong views on immigration and even ethnic homogeneity than Americans, with 70 per cent of right-wing voters saying it’s bad for society “if white people decline as a share of the population”.
The voices are quiet at first and then loud all at once. On the vast empty beach of Gravelines in northern France, as an orange morning sun rips through grey clouds, two men prowl the dunes. In a few minutes they cross the beach, filming everything on a GoPro, iPhones in hand, stopping occasionally to pick at coats, trainers, sweatshirts, and empty teargas canisters that litter the sand.
Danny Thomas from Portsmouth and Ryan Bridge from Birmingham are filming content for their Instagram pages, one of which is “Raise the Colours”, the account behind this summer’s surge in Union Jacks, of which Bridge is a co-founder.
‘If you don’t get them out you’re not going to have a country left’: Donald Trump says Britain should deport illegal immigrants as soon as they arrive – and that Europe ‘is not the same place’ anymore
US President Donald Trump has said the UK must follow America’s hard line on immigration or ‘you’re not going to have a country left’.
He praised his own immigration policies, claiming he had reduced people entering the US illegally to ‘zero’, adding the UK must ‘take [migrants] back immediately’.
Speaking to GB News, he called for Keir Starmer’s government to deploy the military to tackle the small boats problem in a wide-ranging interview that also saw him threaten again to sue the BBC for up to $5 billion.
Donald Trump says to GB News’ @beverleyturner that immigration in Britain & Europe migrants are “coming from some of the worst places on earth.” It will “destroy you.”

A large worldwide poll has found Britons to be one of the most dissatisfied nations with 50 years of ‘progress’, with a majority saying they believe people were happier and safer last century, and a plurality even saying they wish they’d been born long ago.
Suspects, who are Iranian, Syrian and “British”, will appear before magistrates after police tipped off about the alleged sexual exploitation of a teenage girl
Seven men have been charged with a string of rape and sexual offences in connection with an alleged grooming gang in Bristol.
The defendants, who are aged between 19 and 26, face more than 40 offences against 11 complainants between 2022 and 2025.
Avon and Somerset police launched their investigation in November 2023 after being tipped off about the alleged sexual exploitation of a teenage girl.
The murder of little children by Alex Rudakubana in Southport, England, on the 29th of July 2024 feels almost like ancient history now. Nearly every day Brits learn of another stabbing of innocent people on the streets of their country by individuals who, well, let’s just say aren’t wearing corduroys and tweed jackets.
A man was murdered and two other civilians (including a child) were injured from knife wounds by an Afghani in Uxbridge at the end of last month. Earlier that month, a gang of Kurdish illegal immigrants roamed Dorset’s seaside town of Boscombe attacking people with machetes. This month, an ethnically Caribbean man knifed people on a train pulling into Huntingdon railway station. We have grown accustomed to such violence as an everyday trait of modern British life.
Britain has stopped sharing intelligence with the US about drug trafficking in the Caribbean, in a move that risks opening a fresh rift with Donald Trump.
In a major break with its closest ally, the Labour Government allegedly paused intelligence briefings because it does not want to be complicit in US strikes on suspected drug boats in Latin America, CNN reported.
The pause came into effect in September shortly after the US began carrying out lethal strikes against boats suspected of transporting drugs from Latin America to mainland US, sources told the news outlet.
The police want us to know one thing about Anthony Williams, the alleged LNER knife attacker. We can only speculate about his motives, his record or whether he was responsible for an earlier attack in the London Docklands. But one fact was broadcast almost immediately: he was British-born.
The police put out a statement soon after arresting him (along with a second man, who was released afterwards):
“A 32-year-old man, a black British national, and a 35-year-old man, a British national of Caribbean descent, were both arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. Both were born in the UK.
OK, he was born in the UK. So were three of the four 7/7 bombers. So were the men who murdered Lee Rigby outside Woolwich Barracks. So were the Westminster Bridge and London Bridge stabbing attackers, the perpetrators of the Manchester Arena abomination and, of course, the Southport knife killer, Axel Rudakubana.
Asylum seekers can continue living at an Essex hotel after a council lost a landmark legal battle at the High Court to remove them.
Epping Forest District Council sought to block migrants lodging at The Bell Hotel in Epping by arguing its owner had flouted planning rules.
Mr Justice Mould dismissed the claim on Tuesday, ruling an injunction was “not an appropriate means of enforcing planning control”.
TODAY, the annual Remembrance Sunday commemoration is held in London to honour the contribution of service personnel and civilians in the two World Wars and successive conflicts. It is a sombre occasion: the military bands stirring, the uniforms and greatcoats immaculate, and the church bells muffled. The crimson poppy wreaths are laid, while thousands of marchers salute the Cenotaph.
Criticism of Islam is a protected belief under equalities law, a judge has ruled.
Patrick Lee, 61, was found guilty of misconduct by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) last April over posts on X. After a four-year disciplinary process, he was banned from the professional body and ordered to pay nearly £23,000 in costs.
The trade body ruled that 42 of his posts that criticised Islam, including calling the Prophet Mohammed a “monster”, were “either offensive or inflammatory or both”, adding that 29 were “designed to demean or insult Muslims”.
A large academic study of attitudes among those living in the United Kingdom found the vast majority believe the country is “divided”, with many saying the culture is changing too fast and that they want “my country to be the way it used to be”.
If there has been a more shameful day in recent British history, I’m struggling to recall it tonight.
As unrest flared around the Aston Villa stadium, with pro-Israel protesters herded into a caged basketball court by police for their own safety, we witnessed nothing less than the forces of Islamism exerting a stranglehold on our police, our government and our country.
How must Sir Keir Starmer have felt after vowing to do all he could to reverse the ban on Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, only to have been humiliated at the hands of the mob? Last month, the Prime Minister declared that the chant “from the river to the sea” was unequivocally antisemitic. What would he say about “death, death to the IDF” as it rang off the pavements of Birmingham?
Behold the future …
On the one hand I’m ecstatic that everything we were straining to say through memes and booby-trapped interviews with deceitful journalists is now being voiced openly, plainly, and without hysteria.
On the other, I mourn the wasted years, the cartoon brawls between right-wing… https://t.co/ymbZNSMWbt
