  • “Lammy is turning Britain into a global laughing stock” – The Foreign Secretary has managed to create a rift not only with Israel, but with the United States too, says Con Coughlin in the Telegraph.
  • “‘Our’ National Health Service is becoming a cesspit of hate” – The NHS spends £40 million a year on Diversity, Equality and Inclusion. But this ‘inclusivity’ does not seem to apply to Jews, writes Nicole Lampert in the Telegraph.
  • “Israel accuses Facebook Oversight Board of endorsing ‘genocidal rallying cry’” – Israel has accused Facebook’s oversight board of “endorsing a genocidal rallying cry” by ruling that the phrase “From the river to the sea” did not always glorify Hamas, reports the Telegraph.
  • “Offenders could serve sentence in Estonian prisons to ease overcrowding” – The Government has not ruled out sending offenders to Estonia as a way of alleviating overcrowding in U.K. prisons, says Sky News.
  • “In Australia, the tobacco war has been a disaster” – Britain’s black market in tobacco is thriving. But a glance at Australia shows just how explosive and perilous it can become, writes Hugo Timms in Spiked.
  • “The winter fuel rebellion is a small taste of the welfare battles to come” – Labour’s winter fuel cut reveals a deeper problem that Starmer must fix or face a political winter of discontent, says Fraser Nelson in the Telegraph.
  • “Shadow Energy Secretary casts doubt on Ed Miliband’s GB Energy plans, after bill passes vote” – Claire Coutinho says Ed Miliband’s plans to create a state-owned energy company that would reduce Britain’s reliance on fossil fuels “makes no sense”, according to LBC.
  • “Miliband’s empty energy promise” – Labour has committed itself to decarbonising by 2030 without having any idea of how that can be done, says Ross Clark in the Spectator.
  • “The elitism of electric cars” – EVs are still only viable for the well-off, urban-dwelling, laptop class, writes Hugo Griffiths in Spiked.
  • “Lucy Letby appoints new barrister to try to overturn murder conviction” – Lucy Letby has appointed a new barrister who will try to overturn her murder convictions, according to the Telegraph.
  • “Who gets to talk about Lucy Letby?” – On the WATN? Substack, Prof. Norman Fenton argues that Lucy Letby’s conviction is unsafe.
  • “Top health official admits in court that ‘independent’ pandemic expert advice was steered by politicians, that virus risk assessments were political and that vaccine mandates had no scientific rationale” – The President of the Robert Koch Institute (Germany’s CDC) has shattered public myths about the pandemic response in court, says Eugyppius on Substack.
  • “Court finds Kennedy has standing in our consolidated case” – A court ruling has granted Robert F. Kennedy Jr. standing in a case against the Biden administration over alleged government-directed censorship on social media, writes Dr. Aaron Kheriaty on his Substack.
  • “Harvard, Columbia rank last in nonprofit’s 2025 college free speech scorecard” – For the second year in a row, Harvard University’s “abysmal” free speech climate earned it the lowest ranking among 251 colleges and universities scored by the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, reports Fox News.
  • “The truth about World War II” – In the Free Press, Victor Davis Hanson takes on fellow historian Darryl Cooper’s flawed WWII theories from his recent Tucker Carlson interview, emphasising Britain’s role as a defender against Hitler’s aggression, not the war’s instigator.

  • “Ed Miliband is a zealot” – Tim Montgomerie gives his verdict on Ed Miliband on Mike Graham’s show on TalkTV.

“Can I put you on the spot? The worst Keir Starmer minister, it's a tough choice isn't it?” @montie asks @Iromg

“I would say probably the most dangerous out of all of them is Ed Miliband… He's a zealot.”#CostOfNetZero pic.twitter.com/toBoanXHXa
