The unqualified £15-an-hour council ‘enforcement officers’ who can fine you up to £500 and get you arrested for failing to hand over your personal details

Councils across Britain are employing environmental enforcement officers with no qualifications to police their streets by handing out fines for littering and spitting.

Workers are being sent out on daily foot patrols in an attempt to catch people and issue Fixed Penalty Notices under the Environmental Protection Act 1990.

They are given the power to issue on-the-spot fines of up to £500 to those spotted dropping small items such as food wrappers, chewing gum and cigarette ends.

Inside California’s Gay-Certification Program

Americans are used to handouts for favored groups. Affirmative action in university admissions, corporate “diversity” initiatives, and minority-owned contracting requirements direct opportunities, resources, and contracts to supposedly “oppressed” groups, such as women, Native Americans, blacks, and Hispanics.

Failed politician Nate Erskine Smith desperate for new ways to show what a loser he is

Outgoing Liberal MP Nate Erskine-Smith is considering running for Toronto city council, and has discussed the possibility with Mayor Olivia Chow.

Remember That Kidnapping Plot Against Gretchen Whitmer? One of Its Defendants Got Some Good News

Remember That Kidnapping Plot Against Gretchen Whitmer? One of Its Defendants Got Some Good News

In 2020, 12 people were convicted of a poorly planned kidnapping plot against Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. It was obviously never going to succeed, and it was such a Mickey Mouse operation that one could argue Whitmer was never truly in danger. Undercover FBI agents were also accused of entrapment, but while some were acquitted, others were convicted and received significant jail time.
