  • “Kosher restaurant in Golders Green vandalised as Met police step up patrols in London” – Metropolitan Police patrols have been increased in London after reports of groups of people celebrating Hamas’ attack on Israel, reports LBC. Scotland Yard says it’s not treating it as a hate crime, rather incredibly.

  • “Decolonisation is not a metaphor, it is violence” – Hamas’s terrorism has been a mask-off moment for the decolonisers, writes Laura Dodsworth on Substack.
  • “BBC accused of ‘failing public’ by refusing to call Hamas ‘terrorists’” – The BBC’s former Director of Television has criticised the broadcaster for not calling the Hamas gunmen ‘terrorists’ in news broadcasts, reports the Mail.
  • “Why won’t the BBC call Hamas terrorists?” – Words matter, and pro-Hamas propaganda is already having real-world consequences here in the U.K., writes Nicole Lampert in CapX.
  • “Why are Jews being blamed for Hamas’s attack on Israel?” – Make no mistake: This was the killing of Jews because they were Jews, says Jake Wallis Simpson in the Spectator.

  • “In-school Covid measures lead to record truancy in Japan” – On Substack, Guy Gin examines newly released data that indicates a 22% increase in truancy rates in Japan.

  • “Scottish Labour is still gripped by gender-identity lunacy” – Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar is desperately trying to cover up his party’s role in Scotland’s disastrous self-ID bill, says Malcolm Clark in Spiked.
  • “Three-day Supreme Court battle over Rwanda asylum scheme begins” – Home Office lawyers have argued that deterring migrants from crossing the Channel is of “strong public interest” as judges review the fate of the Rwanda scheme, according to the Mail.
  • “State elections in Bavaria and Hessen show the establishment parties to be in decline as political momentum shifts decisively to the Right” – The election results in Bavaria and Hessen is yet another sign that Germany’s centre-Right parties have entered a period of long-term decline, writes Eugyppius on Substack.
  • “Subsidies have defanged the French media” – The elite French media is lavishly subsidised, making tenuous any claim that mainstream French journalism is independent, says Jonathan Miller in the Spectator.
  • “Ed Miliband’s Net Zero plan is a disaster waiting to happen” – While Rachel Reeves set out Labour’s plan for growth, the Shadow Energy Minister was busy undermining it, writes Sam Ashworth-Hayes in the Telegraph.
  • “Is the planet truly ‘boiling’, or are we measuring the wrong things?” – A new study that eliminates the effect of ‘urban islands’ throws doubt on both the extent and the causes of global warming, argues Igor Chudov on Substack.
  • “Correct, WBUR, many climate scientists don’t tell the truth” – Are climate scientists lying about how disastrous it will be if average global temperatures increase by 1.5°C to retain their arbitrary target? It seems that way. Yet there is no evidence that passing 1.5°C means disaster, says Anthony Watts in WUWT.
  • “Your luxury beliefs are a threat to our living standards” – The anti-fossil-fuel hysteria of the global elite threatens to impoverish mankind, argues Brendan O’Neill in Spiked.

  • “Canadian veteran offered medical assistance in dying while campaigning for a wheelchair ramp” – On X, Dr. Anastasia Maria Loupis has posted a news report about a Canadian woman who, while campaigning for a wheelchair ramp to her private residence, was offered medically assisted death.
  • “Today, I declared myself an independent candidate for President” – On Substack, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has announced his U.S. presidential bid, but as an independent not a Democrat.
  • “The divide between the Iranian regime and the Iranian people could not be greater” – On X, Gabriel Noronha, a former U.S. State Department Advisor on Iran, has shared a video of Iranian soccer fans chanting, “Take that Palestinian flag and shove it up your ***” in response to an attempt by regime shills to show their support for Hamas.
