EXTRAORDINARY: An Afghan asylum seeker learns an English single mum and her two kids were kicked out their house so he and FIVE other migrants could live there (HMO).
He can't believe we prioritise foreigners over British children: "I'm sorry."

Uncle Sam. Miami Vice. When it comes to recruiting new Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, the Trump administration is getting creative.
A social-media campaign launched late last month touted immigration enforcement as an opportunity for father-son bonding and to “deport illegals with your absolute boys,” a slang term for close friends. The Department of Homeland Security has invoked world-war-era imagery and touted 1990s Superman actor Dean Cain in an all-out blitz to persuade Americans they should join ICE’s ranks.
This week, the Toronto International Film Festival attempted to cancel, then reinstated, the screening of The Road Between Us: The Ultimate Rescue, a documentary on a retired Israeli general’s successful attempt to rescue his family during the October 7, 2023, terror attacks by Hamas.
The organizers of TIFF reportedly claimed they needed Hamas’s permission to show the footage of the extreme violence from October 7 found on the GoPros of Hamas terrorists.
Muslim hate will not be stopped by recognizing a Pallie State and it won’t be stopped even if Israel were were wiped off the map.
Islam is a murder cult and they will eventually come for you.
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — European and NATO leaders announced Sunday they will join President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Washington for talks with President Donald Trump about ending Russia’s war in Ukraine. They are rallying around the Ukrainian leader after his exclusion from Trump’s summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The remarkable show of solidarity — with leaders from France, Britain and Germany saying they would be at Zelenskyy’s side at the White House on Monday — was an apparent effort to ensure the meeting goes better than the last one in February, when Trump berated Zelenskyy in a heated Oval Office encounter.
“The Europeans are very afraid of the Oval Office scene being repeated and so they want to support Mr. Zelenskyy to the hilt,” said retired French Gen. Dominique Trinquand, a former head of France’s military mission at the United Nations.
This should be fun.
My guess is Trump will reveal the deal he and Putin worked out and this meeting may just be a courtesy to inform Zelensky and Europe of those terms.
Their acceptance will dictate the depth of continued US participation.
After almost four decades of Canadian governments setting and failing to hit eight consecutive targets for reducing Canada’s industrial greenhouse gas emissions, surely it’s time to admit the targets are meaningless.
Far from being “aspirational” as supporters claim, they in fact deceive Canadians about the effectiveness of federal spending of more than $200 billion of taxpayers’ money on climate change (as of 2023) on 149 federal programs administered by 13 government departments, since the Liberal government came to power in 2015.
Ronnie Rondell Jr – who was famously set alight for the front cover of Pink Floyd’s iconic Wish You Were Here album cover – has died at the age of 88.
The Hollywood stuntman and actor died on 12 August at a care home in the US state of Missouri, according to an online obituary.
OTTAWA—The safest assumption in Canadian politics right now is that Pierre Poilievre is going to win Monday’s federal byelection in Battle River—Crowfoot.
In interviews this week with Conservative insiders, in most every pundit’s analysis, and in the strategizing of politicos of all stripes, it’s taken as a given: the Tory leader will be back in the House of Commons for the fall sitting of Parliament. After all, since he lost in April’s general election the riding he represented on Ottawa’s suburban-rural fringe for 20 years, Poilievre is now running in a sprawling Alberta constituency that polling expert Éric Grenier has deemed “one of the safest Conservative seats in all of Canada.” His short-lived parliamentary exile is almost certainly coming to an end.
DALLAS — Just after dusk on July 5, the crash of wood and metal suddenly reverberated through a predominantly Black and Latino neighborhood here known as The Bottoms. Neighbors peered out to see a small army of men in desert camouflage and tactical vests crouched behind a black armored vehicle, shouting commands toward a brick house.
A SWAT team had smashed through the front door of the residence, which neighbors say was occupied by several transgender women, part of a group of activists who initially united around trans and queer identity issues. Now, the women, dressed in bathrobes and pajamas, were being detained at gunpoint, neighbors said.
“It was weird enough that six or seven White, trans people moved into the neighborhood,” said a neighbor, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of privacy concerns. He rolled a joint and gazed at the plywood-covered front window: “And now the FBI is raiding their house.”
Prime Minister Mark Carney issued an unusual statement Saturday to praise U.S. President Donald Trump for trying to broker a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine.
Carney’s public endorsement of Trump’s leadership on the world stage came as the president and his Alaskan summit were widely derided by foreign policy and security experts. The get-together was of little value and gave Russian President Vladimir Putin, a former intelligence officer, an image boost, they said.
Anti-racism campaigners have chanted at demonstrators protesting against “uncontrolled illegal immigration” outside a hotel used to house asylum seekers in Falkirk.
Stand Up to Racism Scotland, Falkirk Trades Union Council and residents said they organised the demonstration on Saturday to show that refugees were welcome in the town.
The gathering was arranged after the group Save Our Future & Our Kids Futures announced plans to hold a protest outside the hotel known as the Cladhan.
Falkirk Says No.

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, Prime Minister Mark Carney “revised” his first major Parliamentary bill as Canada’s leader on August 8, by mandating that industrial projects deemed fit for speedy approval “must” serve the interests of indigenous peoples.
This unilateral reinvention repudiates the legal text of Bill C-5, passed into law on June 26, which only states that indigenous interests “may” or “can” be considered.

CGI? Still funny.
The Trump administration has applauded Scottish prosecutors’ “sensible decision” to clear an anti-abortion campaigner over her silent protest.
Rose Docherty, 75, was arrested in February after police were called to reports of an anti-abortion protest near the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital (QEUH), in Glasgow. She had been holding a sign that read: “Coercion is a crime, here to talk, only if you want.”
