The firm said in a statement that a “perfect storm of issues, including the disruption of global trade flows and a shortage of drivers” have been made worse by the pandemic and Brexit, and was impacting around 10% of Ikea’s entire range.

Investigation into hacked “map” of UK gun owners
Authorities are investigating after a map claiming to show the addresses of thousands of firearms owners in the UK was published online.
Gun-selling site Guntrader announced a data breach affecting more than 100,000 customers in July.
This week, reports emerged that an animal rights activist blog had published the information.
The group had formatted the data so it could be easily imported into mapping software to show individual homes.
UK study: Most Covid deaths occur in ‘fully vaccinated’ people
Newly released data from the United Kingdom show that the vast majority of “delta variant” deaths were among “fully vaccinated” citizens. These deaths also include individuals who had been perfectly healthy before the shot.

Deaths in 80%-Vaccinated UK Up TENFOLD From This Time Last Year When Zero Were Vaccinated
The constant drumbeat from Big Pharma’s pawns in government, media, Big Tech, and academia hits Americans over the head every day with their push for universal vaccinations. Vaccine mandates are spreading faster than the disease itself as millions are suddenly finding themselves forced to choose between taking the experimental drugs or losing access to life’s essentials such as jobs or groceries.
Does hate crime no longer matter?
Two shocking attacks allegedly carried out by Muslims have not caused a storm. We need to talk about why.
Imagine if footage emerged showing a white man attacking people in a Muslim-populated part of town. Imagine if CCTV images showed the man punching a visibly Muslim elderly man in the face without provocation. Imagine if someone’s dashcam then captured this same bloke assaulting a Muslim child.
Afghanistan: US decision to withdraw lays bare a not so special relationship with the UK
… America acted unilaterally over Afghanistan – actually maybe that should be Joe Biden acted unilaterally. The administration was not much interested in what the UK thought. Mr Biden, from what I have been told, was not much interested in the red flags being raised by his intel community and military top brass, or by the warnings delivered from London. He wanted out. The warnings of HM Government – and my understanding is they were made strenuously – fell on deaf, indifferent ears in Washington.
In those circumstances – and let me depersonalise this – what is a British prime minister to do? If the 800lb gorilla is going to leave the room, what is the much smaller primate meant to do? The idea that the British armed forces could have swarmed in to fill the vacuum left by a US withdrawal is unrealistic.
Leftists in U.S. and UK Want Reparations Paid to the Taliban
Richard Burgon, a member of the British Parliament for the far-Left Labour party and Secretary of the Socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs, demonstrated Tuesday that the Left’s commitment to the redistribution of wealth is indefatigable: He declared that what the West really needs to do now is start forking over money to the Taliban. Burgon tweeted: “The crisis in Afghanistan is the result of 20 years of disastrous military intervention. Just as in Iraq & Libya, backing US-led invasions led to a huge loss of life. There is no military solution in Afghanistan. The focus now should be on reparations and supporting refugees.”

Police warning after city mosque manager sparks fury over Taliban prayers Facebook post
Police have quizzed the manager of one of Birmingham’s biggest mosques after he posted a Facebook message appearing to praise Taliban leaders in prayer during the capture of Kabul.
The post sparked fury among some worshippers, who include Afghan refugees who fled the Taliban regime 20 years ago. One mosque attendee has withdrawn his child from planned Islam classes because of it.
Why praise a Foreign Taliban? Birmingham has its own homegrown variant!
Arrest over Birmingham homophobic attack in Gay Village – but two men still wanted
UK Sharia Council scholar says Taliban views on women misrepresented and ‘every Muslim I know’ is celebrating their return
‘We should give them a chance’: UK Sharia Council scholar says the Taliban have ‘grown up’ and ‘every Muslim I know’ is celebrating their return as she accuses Western media of ‘misrepresenting’ their views on women’s rights
A UK Islamic Sharia Council scholar has claimed that the Taliban have ‘grown up’ and British Muslims are ‘celebrating’ the return of the jihadi group to power.
Since taking over Afghanistan, the jihadi group has claimed it will not carry out violence against women, and will not ‘seek vengeance’ on those who stood against them during the brutal 20-year war in the region.
Sharia Council scholar Khola Hasan today told BBC Radio 4 that the Islamist group’s recent posturing on women’s rights was a ‘good start’, and ‘every single person that I know, as a Muslim’ was ‘celebrating’ their return.
This can’t happen in Canada because we imported “Magic Islam.”
Islamic Religious Authority Anjem Choudary is using encrypted phone app Telegram – favoured by ISIS terrorists – to spread poison online
Hate preacher Anjem Choudary is secretly posting vile messages to his followers on an encrypted smartphone app favoured by Islamic State terrorists, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
The extremist imam, who called the 9/11 hijackers ‘magnificent martyrs’ and radicalised the killers of soldier Lee Rigby, is sending messages on the Telegram app after he was banned by Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp for violating hate-speech rules.
Choudary told his Telegram followers last week that Britain is a ‘police state’ and preached that Muslims are having their freedoms taken away ‘under the guise of counter-terrorism’.
Muslim policewoman who posted racist messages and was in touch with female jihadi knew that she couldn’t let ‘anyone at work’ see her tweets
A Muslim police officer facing investigation for tweeting racist messages once admitted that her employer found her views ‘extreme’.
Ruby Begum, 26, posted the comment when she worked for a market-research company.
The Mail on Sunday revealed last week that Ms Begum used Twitter in the months before joining the Metropolitan Police to insult Jews and mock the 9/11 terror attacks.
UK MPs urged to ban ‘virginity repair’ surgery as well as virginity testing
The government’s pledge to outlaw virginity testing will be undermined unless fake surgery touted as “virginity repair” is also banned, the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG) has warned.
Last month ministers committed to criminalising the invasive and unscientific “tests” offered by some private clinics to determine whether someone is a virgin through an examination to see if the hymen is intact.
However, there are no plans to ban a procedure the same doctors claim can “restore virginity” by constructing a layer of skin at the entrance to the vagina to create the illusion of an unbroken hymen.
Just what are those Baptists up to? Goes on in Canada as well but we’re too busy banning cis-gendered white males to pay it much mind.
UK: ‘Force gun owners to face online hate trawl’
Police must trawl through the social media accounts of people applying for firearms licences to prevent those with extremist views from having access to deadly weapons, a former Metropolitan Police chief has said.
The call comes as ministers were urged to classify men who espouse hatred towards women online as potential terrorist threats because they embrace a radical and dangerous ideology.
On Saturday night, Jake Davison, the misogynist gunman who went on a killing spree in Plymouth, was hailed on websites used by incels – involuntary celibates – as a “saint”. Others called for copycat killings on forums feared to be radicalising young boys as young as 13.
