More than a year ago and still relevant.

Under barbaric Islamic laws in Iran, Muslim fathers are allowed to rape their stepdaughters or adopted daughters when they reach the age of 13.

In a vote tantamount to treason, Parliament decided 297-108 to put Net Zero ideology above Britain's energy security. MPs rejected a Tory motion to scrap the Energy Profits Levy, lift the ban on new North Sea licences & approve the Rosebank & Jackdaw fields. A thread (1/15)

The Jordan Linden case is going to open up a can of worms. Scots must be made aware of how the SNP operate to protect their sex pests and thiefs. Secrecy, bullying, intimidation and cover ups is rife. Snp would rather protect their own, than protect the victims. This is no joke.

💥The IRGC murdered over 40,000 unarmed protesters in just 2 days on the streets of Iran. Thousands and thousands and thousands of teenagers. 💥They injured hundreds of thousands. 💥Then they went in to the hospitals and murdered patients in their beds. 💥Then they tortured and murdered doctors and nurses who were treating the wounded. 💥They are still shooting into the homes of civilians every night in Tehran. They are absolutely evil. Just like ISIS.

How the SNP spends billions ‘to buy loyalty from charities’ thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

Rape Crisis was told by SNP ministers to abandon a campaign because Alex Salmond’s sexual assault court case was coming up. An academic was forced to stand down from a charity because she feared the SNP would cut off funds if the party became aware of her views on gender The SNP ploughed millions of pounds into drug charities that would support its controversial policies, such as “fix rooms” Alcohol charities which relied on the SNP for the majority of their funding acted as “the Praetorian Guard of the SNP” over the party’s key policy: minimum unit pricing for alcohol

OH CANADA: Parliament is working on expanding government-assisted suicide for pre-teens without parental consent. Does anyone know what is going on in the formerly great white north?

Dear Phoebe, I read your Observer piece this morning on the reported “exodus” from Girlguiding - and I was genuinely shocked. Not because you presented a different perspective to my recent Telegraph reporting on the problems within Girlguiding. That’s part of journalism. But because you chose to include the case of a six-year-old little boy who reportedly tried to cut off his own penis - after being told he couldn't be part of Rainbows (the section of Girlguiding for 5–7 year olds). Presenting it as evidence of a problem with Girlguiding’s admissions policy. It is not. It is a deeply distressing account involving a very young child - and, on any view, a serious welfare concern. Framing it otherwise is a profound failure of editorial judgement. You also refer to this male child throughout using female pronouns, including the phrase “her penis”. I appreciate this may reflect current editorial conventions. But it sits uneasily with the basic duty of a journalist to report clearly and accurately on material facts. I was already aware of this case through my own reporting for the Sunday Telegraph. I made a conscious decision not to include it at this stage - both because a minor is involved and because of the ethical considerations that arise when reporting on such sensitive situations. Those considerations are not optional. You will know, as I do, that journalism is not simply about presenting competing narratives. It is about establishing facts clearly, handling vulnerable subjects with care and exercising judgement about what should - and should not - be used to advance an argument. I trained as a journalist in the early 2000s - a good 20 years earlier than you did - but to my knowledge nothing has changed. Good journalism should bring clarity. It should not muddy the facts - in order to promote an ideological position. In this context, that means being clear about sex - a material fact that is both legally and practically relevant. I appreciate you may be under pressure from colleagues or editors to frame stories in a particular way - or to use she/her pronouns, or the phrase “her penis”. But that doesn’t make it right. Earlier this week, the Manchester Evening News reported a violent murder as being committed by a woman - one of many examples of inaccurate reporting around sex and gender. In this case, even the Crown Prosecution Service - the public body responsible for prosecuting criminal cases in England and Wales - also reported the crime inaccurately. So that’s two professions we should be able to trust to tell the truth - providing inaccurate information. Crime statistics matter. Without accurate data on who is committing serious violence, we cannot properly understand it - let alone prevent it. I considered raising this privately, or writing to your editor. But this issue is too important to be brushed aside with a “thank you for your feedback”. I’m happy to discuss it with you privately, or to support a conversation with your editor if that would be helpful. But I hope this gives you - and your colleagues - serious pause for thought. Because it is very much needed. Janet

No one is surprised by this. “Labour is planning an overhaul of equality laws that will inflict “socialism” on Britain, the Tories have claimed. Sir Keir Starmer’s Government is drawing up new statutory guidance that critics say amounts to a “war on the middle class”. Under the plans, public sector bodies will have a new “socio-economic duty” imposed on them, meaning that all decisions they make must strive to reduce inequality in society. The policy would lead to benefits claimants and deprived families being prioritised for taxpayer-funded services, with the middle classes pushed to the back of the queue, according to the Conservatives. In practice, they warn that this could lead to middle-class families being discriminated against when it comes to school places, police resources and hospital and GP appointments. Labour has been accused of launching a series of measures which have penalised the middle classes, including imposing VAT on private school fees and changing inheritance taxes for farmers and family-owned businesses” Telegraph

I will speak more plainly than most Those Brits who peacock as left wing opponents of the far right are among the most disgusting people in humanity The fact that you march alongside the Islamic fundamentalist supporters of the ayatollahs - those who stabbed Salman Rushdie in the eye, who hang gays and butcher women, who fire rockets upon Israeli civilians and funded Hamas, who massacred thousands on the streets of Tehran - makes you champions of the most reactionary forces on earth The fact that our media is captured by idiots like you and thus you are never held to account does not change this You - the most pompous, the most self-aggrandising, the most preachy and hectoring - are the scum of Britain

Leftists in London marching with the Islamic Regime flags. A regime that hangs gay people and bludgeons women’s faces in if they don’t wear a hijab. But yeah let’s pretend these people care about “Human rights”

Brilliant… Mad Ed has managed to lead us into the perfect storm. ▪️Norway is cutting gas supplies by up to 1/3 for maintenance ▪️Global flows are hit by Middle East disruption. ▪️Europe is running low on storage and we have a few days worth. ▪️Blocked Rosebank and Jackdaw, even though UK gas fields ready to go NOW. ▪️prices to spiral upwards for years. You won’t need to turn your own lights off to save energy, Ed will do it for you 🤡

@MalHay I’m 85 and it seems every time Labour since WW2 get into power and then get voted out, they leave behind a trail of bad political decisions and that have a long term disastrous effect on our nation. We are currently paying for Blair, Brown and now Starmers mistakes🤷

Britain is being taken for a ride by Rachel Reeves and it’s families paying the price at the pump. While Spain, India and Norway cut fuel duty to back their people, Labour continue to squeeze our motorists dry. Reeves must axe the fuel tax hike, ditch the net zero dogma and drill in the north sea to bring prices down. I spoke to @TheSun 👇🏻

Labour, Green Party and Lib Dem councillors in Darlington have joined forces to defeat a Conservative and Reform motion that women's public spaces must be for women only. The three parties said this interpretation of the law was "anti trans" bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Increasingly hard for the government to continue to argue that Jonathan Powell should not face questioning from the Foreign Affairs Committee
