In Canada, something that would be unthinkable in UK politics is occurring. Young people are voting centre-right, with Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Party (CPC) enjoying a seven-point lead among 18-29 year-olds, rising to 19 points among 30-44 year-olds. By contrast, in the UK the Tories trail Labour by 44 points among 18-24 year-olds, and by 43 points among 25-49 year-olds.

Home Secretary Suella Braverman has refused to rule out fitting illegal migrants with electronic and GPS tags.
Her department is reportedly mulling the idea as a way to ensure that migrants awaiting asylum decisions—and who cannot be housed in the network of immigration detention centers around the country—do not pick up and leave unmonitored.

Anthony Stevens had retweeted a video showing police arrest of a Christian street preacher
One law for Christians another for Muslims.
A Conservative councillor was arrested for an alleged hate crime after re-tweeting a video criticising how the police treated a Christian street preacher.
Cllr Anthony Stevens, 50, from Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, told The Telegraph he was arrested at his home this month and escorted to a police station for questioning about tweets from his personal account, which has 76 followers.
One tweet involved a video showing how police had treated the arrest of Christian preacher Oluwole Ilisanmi in Southgate, London, in 2019.
Two brothers are among five men from Rochdale to have been found guilty of sexually exploiting two girls from the ages of 12 and 13.
The girls were “mere objects for the defendants to use, abuse, humiliate then discard”, Manchester Minshull Street crown court heard.
The jury had been warned not to be prejudiced against the defendants simply because of where they were from, with one defence barrister saying Rochdale had become “synonymous with grooming”.
The men had denied 80 counts dating back to 2002 and 2006, when some of them were teenagers.
The Tories cannot do right on migration. Party officials are desperate to look tough on illegal crossings to win favour among voters ahead of next year’s general election. But every scheme, following months and months of idle talk, ends in humiliation.
The latest, described as “the flagship of the government’s latest plan to ‘stop the boats,’” is no exception to this rule.
A father who beat his daughter outside her school during a row over a boy has been spared jail after she gave an emotional courtroom plea for mercy.
Delivery driver Hussein Alinzi, 59, battered the 15-year-old with a metal bar on the morning of her English GCSE exam when he dropped her off early at the gates of the Whalley Range High School to find them still locked.
During the assault Alinzi accused his daughter of secretly planning to a meet a boy ahead of the exam and berated her for wearing makeup. But it later emerged the real reason she did so was to cover up the bruises he had inflicted on her.
An investigation by the Newcastle police codenamed Operation Sanctuary was launched in 2013 and it revealed that more than 700 girls were reportedly enslaved and abused for years. Minor girls were taken to parties and ladened with drugs like cocaine, cannabis, alcohol, or mephedrone before being raped and abused.
Arguing on behalf of Insar Hussain, one of the eight accused in the Rochdale child sexual abuse case, Meyrick Williams on 27th July said the victim, called Girl A, displayed “a vivid imagination”. The trial in the Rochdale grooming gang scandal has been ongoing at the Minshull Street Crown Court in Manchester, United Kingdom. Eight men, all but one being Muslims, are being tried for raping minor girls over a period of four years. But the chilling facts of the case tell that the abuse gangs are not new to the UK and the exploitation has been ongoing unabated for decades.
LAST week Migration Watch sent out an email to their followers titled: ‘Are asylum lawyers a law unto themselves? How many shysters are there among them?’
They were commenting on groundbreaking (for the mainstream media) investigative journalism by the Daily Mail which confirmed what many of us have suspected, that dodgy (in fact, criminal) lawyers have been offering to invent back-stories for their illegal immigrant clients to secure asylum for them. Staff at solicitors’ firms readily agreed to help an undercover reporter posing as an economic migrant who’d arrived on a small boat, to get refugee status. This was despite being told he had no legitimate reason to stay in the UK.
Communist country’s extensive penetration of the British economy poses national security risk
A coming influx of Chinese electric cars represents a security risk as they could be remotely controlled to “paralyse” Britain, according to the head of the industry’s professional body.
Britons face “major security issues” from Chinese cars, warned Professor Jim Saker, president of the Institute of the Motor Industry.
In a report due to be shared with car makers and regulators, Prof Saker said there was “no way” of stopping Chinese cars coming under remote control.
WE have seen a proliferation of hotels across the UK. Some belong to large chains whilst others are owned and operated by smaller operations. Catering for all tastes from city breaks to rural retreats, there is something to suit all budgets.
Into the sector a new competitor has entered, hoping to win a slice of the profitable hospitality pie.
Taking a nautical inspiration, the company behind the initiative, HMG, have launched their first floating hotel – or, as they like to call it, a floatel.
A Canadian man arrested by British police at Heathrow Airport last week on suspicion of terrorism offences has now been formally charged.
“The Crown Prosecution Service has authorized charges in relation to Anjem Choudary and Khaled Hussein under the Terrorism Act,” said Nick Price, chief Crown prosecutor for the CPS counterterrorism division.
“The charges relate to the proscribed organization Al-Muhajiroun, also known as the Islamic Thinkers Society.”
The terror threat from jailed Islamists being freed into the community is set to rise this year, a new Home Office strategy has warned.
Dozens of convicted terrorists are due to be released in 2023, posing a threat that could “last for decades,” according to the updated Contest counter-terrorism strategy published on Tuesday.
It warned that four of the nine declared terrorist attacks in the UK since 2018 were perpetrated by serving or recently released prisoners. As of March 2023, there were 232 people in jail for terrorism-connected offences but officials are braced for a surge in releases this year after a series of successful prosecutions a decade ago.
Is blasphemy a national security threat to the UK?
The Henry Jackson Society (HJS) think so. Their soon to be published report, trailed by the Telegraphyesterday, found that Muslim anti-blasphemy preachers imported from Pakistan and Bangladesh had accelerated and toxified the response to perceived insults against Islam. Pakistan’s existing blasphemy laws, made even harsher this year, make insulting the Prophet Muhammed or any of his family in effect a capital crime, often without the necessity of a trial because those accused are abducted and murdered by lynch mobs before the justice system gets anywhere near them.
