News Round-Up

by Richard Eldred
8 December 2023 12:57 AM

  • “Three quarters of Jewish people think BBC’s coverage of Gaza war is biased against Israel” – A Jewish Chronicle poll shows that 77% of Jewish people surveyed regard the BBC’s reporting of the war as biased against Israel, with only 11% thinking its coverage is impartial, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Genocide and Jews at Harvard” – The double standards and triple speak that have overrun elite academia showed their truest colours at a recent congressional hearing in Washington – and the firestorm that has followed may actually matter, writes Alex Berenson on Substack.
  • “Penn Uni loses $100 million donation over antisemitism hearing” – A University of Pennsylvania donor is withdrawing a gift worth around $100 million after the Penn President’s unsatisfactory response to antisemitism on campus, according to Axios.
  • “The UN vs Israel” – Despite Israel being set up by a UN vote, the UN hates Israel, says Douglas Murray in the Spectator.
  • “On morality and moral axioms” – If the governing body of a population performs a massacre (and promises more), and its armed forces hide in tunnels below urban areas, no means of fighting them are immoral, writes Prof. Eyal Shahar on Substack.
  • “‘Real origins’ of Covid must be identified, Johnson tells inquiry” – Boris Johnson has suggested the “real origins” of Covid have yet to be discovered as he concluded his evidence to the Hallett Inquiry, reports the Telegraph.
  • “The Hallet Inquiry: The credible asymptomatic evidence from Germany that wasn’t so credible.” – On day one of Boris Johnson’s testimony, Hugo Keith KC said there was credible evidence of asymptomatic transmission from Germany. But, the evidence from Germany wasn’t credible at all, say Prof. Carl Heneghan and Dr. Tom Jefferson on Substack.
  • “Kevin McKernan’s MEGA account restored, minus NZ Covid vax data” – Kevin McKernan’s account with the file hosting service MEGA has been ‘partially’ restored after it was closed due to an injunction by the New Zealand Ministry of Health, says Rebekah Barnett on Substack.
  • “Miscarriage after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination” – On Substack, the Naked Emperor takes issue with a new study that reports higher miscarriage rates after vaccination but still says the vaccine is safe.
  • “Covid vaccines produce random junk proteins thanks to an ‘invention’ which coincidentally won the Nobel Prize” – Would you like to get a mystery shot which would make your body produce random, rubbishy proteins for an indeterminate amount of time? Turns out, mRNA Covid vaccines have precisely that effect, says Igor Chudov on Substack.
  • “Ousting Sunak would be ‘insanity’, Tories told, as Rwanda Commons defeat looms” – The Conservative Party Chairman has warned it would be “insanity” to oust Rishi Sunak before the next election as the Prime Minister faces a House of Commons defeat on his new Rwanda Bill, reports the Telegraph.
  • “The Tories must think we’re idiots to believe Rwanda won’t let us leave the ECHR” – In the Telegraph, Andrew Tettenborn questions the coherence of Rishi Sunak’s Rwanda Bill.
  • “Children as young as 11 reported to Government’s anti-terror programme” – Children as young as 11 are being reported to the Government’s ‘Prevent’ anti-terror programme, including hundreds aged 14 and under, according to the Mail. Needless to say, the majority are designated as ‘far Right‘.
  • “An ill wind that harms state schools too” – Labour’s proposal to impose VAT on private school fees will cost the taxpayer money, argues Mr. Chips on Substack.
  • “Chris Packham sacked by bird charity for being too ‘political’” – Bird charity Raptor Rescue has cut ties with eco-zealot Chris Packham, claiming he was dividing its membership with his extreme campaigning positions, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Why the elites loathe free speech” – Toby Young and Brendan O’Neill discuss the global crackdown on dissent in the latest episode of the Brendan O’Neill Show.
  • “Children will only be referred to transgender clinics if their parents agree” – The NHS is to revise rules that allowed teachers, social workers and GPs to send young people to gender services without securiing parental consent, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Met police officers avoid jail after sharing racist WhatsApp jokes” – Six former Met police officers have been spared jail after sharing racist jokes about members of the royal family and politicians, says the Mail.
  • “Jail, but only for white men” – The Sentencing Council’s proposed changes in guidelines recommend shorter jail terms for everyone – except straight white males, writes Frank Haviland in the New Conservative.
  • “There is nothing ‘anti-racist’ about identitarian activism” – Why has the perennially divisive Shola Mos-Shogbamimu been given an honorary doctorate, asks Rakib Ehsan in Spiked.
  • “Trans extremism has been erasing gay people, and Kemi has been brave enough to say it” – In the Telegraph, Julie Bindel heaps praise on Kemi Badenoch for reminding Parliament that Stonewall “does not decide the law in this country”.
  • “At Harvard, ‘fatphobia’ constitutes violence. But ‘globalise the intifada’ requires context” – On X, the Free Press’s Maya Sulkin notes that the ‘safety first’ approach of American universities is jettisoned when it comes to calls for genocide against Jews.

At Harvard, "fatphobia" constitutes violence.
But "globalize the intifada" requires context.
