Hamza Alotaibi sex attacker

A Jordanian migrant today denied sexually assaulting a girl and three women on the London Underground and was granted bail ahead of his trial in over a year’s time.

Hamza Alotaibi allegedly assaulted the victims within the space of a month – and is first accused of groping a woman at Paddington station on January 27.

The 27-year-old is said to have sexually assaulted a 12-year-old girl on the District Line between St James’s Park and Acton Town stations two days later.

UK Supreme Court Brands Northern Ireland Christian Teaching ‘Indoctrination’

In the name of objectivity and pluralism, religious education must introduce the beliefs of Islam and other religions as well, the Court says.

The UK Supreme Court has ruled that the Christian-focused model of religious education (RE) in Northern Ireland’s schools is unlawful, concluding that the current system fails to meet the requirement that teaching be “objective, critical and pluralistic.” The judgment follows a legal challenge brought by an unnamed father and his daughter, who attended a state-controlled primary school in Belfast. The girl had received Christian religious education and participated in Christian worship, but her non-religious parents objected to her being taught about Christian faith, despite having an option to withdraw their child at any time from RE.

Ottawa halts lending of indigenous art after more than 100 pieces vanish

Paddle to the sea – He got away!

Ottawa has stopped lending out pieces from its multi-million dollar Indigenous Art Collection after auditors found more than 100 works had gone missing — and after the department admitted police were never called to track down the loss.

Blacklock’s Reporter says Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Rebecca Alty told the Commons committee on indigenous and northern affairs that the long-standing practice of sending artworks to federal offices has been shut down.

Kelly McParland: Swedish jet offer is about more than just planes

New parents quickly develop a keen understanding of the gains to be had from anything that helps avoid waking the baby. Peace and quiet for one thing. A period of calm. A moment to think.

In Canada’s case, the baby is the current U.S. president. The president, as we know from repeat experience, is easily upset. When the president gets upset, he gets cranky, makes a lot of noise and causes untold disturbances. If you can, you want to avoid getting him upset.

Jeffrey Epstein’s Resentment Toward Donald Trump

There’s no doubt Jeffrey Epstein thought he was a very, very smart guy. “He always thought he was the smartest person in the room,” said one associate. Another said Epstein “thought he was smarter than the next guy.” When in 2008 Epstein pleaded guilty to procurement of a minor for prostitution, his defense asked for leniency based on his “unique intellect.”

You know your EV Strategy is an abject failure when you lose the Commies …

$50-bn in Subsidies has Failed to Secure EV Jobs, Investment or Future

n October 16, 2023, it was all smiles for the cameras in Loyalist Township where politicians and corporate executives gathered for a groundbreaking ceremony to build a new $2.761-billion Electric Vehicle battery parts plant. Loyalist Township, located next door to the Kingston, Ontario, is named after the Loyalists who, 250 years ago, sided with the British King against the American Revolution and crossed the St. Lawrence River to settle in Upper Canada.

The smiling politicians in Loyalist Township included Ontario Premier Doug Ford and his economic minister, Vic Fedeli, as well as Kingston’s Liberal Member of Parliament, Mark Gerretsen, and Trudeau’s federal industry minister, François-Philippe Champagne. Even the Belgian Ambassador was there. The politicians were boasting of 600 construction jobs, 700 permanent positions, and 700 student co-op placements.


Longish read but lots of good data …”communists make excellent critics but poor theorists”

The Vanishing Englishman: Inside the Schools Forecasting the UK Future

Immigration without integration is invasion.

If you want to know what a country will become, don’t ask a pollster — ask a headteacher. The corridors of Britain’s state schools are no longer corridors of power, but corridors of prophecy. The future is not some abstract projection. It is lining up in assembly, being taught phonics, and growing up in a reality utterly detached from the assumptions of Westminster or the nostalgia of middle England.

Trump Sets a New Direction on Homelessness Policy

Late last week, the Trump administration released revised scoring criteria for homelessness organizations seeking grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Continuum of Care program.

The move signals a new direction in federal homelessness policy. For more than a decade, HUD had supported “Housing First,” an approach that calls for permanent rental subsidies without behavioral expectations. Now, the agency will favor transitional work- and sobriety-oriented homelessness programs, in keeping with the administration’s July executive order.

U.S. envoy warns Canada to ‘seriously consider’ avoiding anti-tariff ads

The U.S. ambassador to Canada on Wednesday warned federal and provincial governments to “seriously consider” whether anti-tariff advertising in the United States will help achieve Canada’s goals, adding he thinks the ads amounted to trying to “participate in our electoral politics.”

Speaking at the Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters’ national conference in Ottawa, Ambassador Pete Hoekstra took aim at an Ontario government-funded ad campaign that aired in the U.S. last month and quoted former U.S. President Ronald Reagan criticizing tariffs.

The ad prompted U.S. President Donald Trump to suspend trade negotiations with Canada.

What Works?: America’s New No-Nonsense Realism

When US President Ronald Reagan revived the phrase “shining city on a hill,” he did so not as a marketing flourish but as a governing ethic: the United States would deter evil by projecting confidence, prosperity and moral clarity.

His message blended optimism with hard power — lower taxes and deregulation to spur growth, rebuilding the military to restore deterrence, and an unapologetic defense of Western civilization. The mix resonated because it tied virtue to results: fewer hostages, a stronger dollar, and an adversary in Moscow forced onto its back foot. This fusion of ideals and outcomes gave the GOP a compass that pointed true north.

WARMINGTON: Dark day as patriot told to stop playing O Canada at City Hall

If Scott Youmans had been hitting a rock of crack cocaine or mainlining fentanyl or heroin, not only would Toronto City Hall security guards have allowed it, but someone would ensure he had a clean pipe or needle to do it.

But they wouldn’t let him play O Canada over his portable sound system Monday in Nathan Phillips Square.

Toronto elected an idiot for Mayor whose handlers hate Canada and hate White people. Everything they do is a calculated insult. It’s hard wired into their ideological DNA.

Some Celebrities Are Finally Getting That We Don’t Care What They Think

The Democrats have a long history of being in bed with entertainment industry elites. I don’t like to use the word “Hollywood” when writing about the lefties in showbiz, because there are a lot of conservatives working behind the cameras there. Most of the stars, as we are painfully aware, are enthusiastic socialists, mostly because they can afford to be.
