20 years in Scotland… and still needs an interpreter in court? At what point do we stop pretending this is normal?

Dutch authorities have foiled a planned attack on a synagogue in Heemstede, where multiple explosive devices were discovered in close proximity to the site. This attempted attack comes amid a wave of recent incidents targeting Jewish institutions in the Netherlands and across Europe, including attacks in Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Liège. The discovery of explosive materials near a place of worship is extremely alarming and highlights the serious and ongoing threat facing Jewish communities. Preventing this attack likely averted potentially devastating consequences. This incident underscores the urgent need for heightened vigilance, strong intelligence cooperation and reinforced protection of Jewish sites. Authorities must ensure that those responsible are identified and that any wider networks behind these attempts are dismantled. Jewish communities must be able to live, gather, and pray in safety. Attempts to terrorise them will not succeed.

A doctor who admitted to removing the ovaries of two women in Guernsey without their consent will be allowed to continue practicing. Gynaecologist Dr Ali Shokouh-Amiri also faced more than 100 allegations of inappropriate behaviour, with 24 instances proven, but has been deemed fit to continue working in healthcare. A Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service panel has found dozens of allegations proven - ranging from over-familiarity with patients' surgical issues and clinical errors. One patient told the hearing in Manchester the removal of her left ovary without her consent "had ruined her life". Another patient, who believed Dr Shokouh-Amiri deliberately removed her ovaries, said it had brought on the menopause prematurely. The gynaecologist has been working as a consultant at Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust since November 2022. The Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service ruled he had "shown good insight into his failures" and had put in place "procedures and actions to address his failings to ensure they do not happen again".

A Danish scientist counted bugs on the same windshield, same road, same conditions, every year for 20 years. By year 20, 80% of the insects were gone. In Germany, a group of volunteer bug scientists did something even bigger. They set traps in 63 nature reserves, not farms, protected land, and weighed everything they caught. Same traps, same method, 27 years straight. The total weight of flying bugs dropped 76%. In midsummer, when insects should be peaking, it was 82% gone. A follow-up in 2020 and 2021 checked again. No recovery. In the UK, they literally ask drivers to count splats on their license plates after a trip. The 2024 count came back 63% lower than just 2021. Three years. A 2020 study pulled together 166 surveys from 1,676 locations around the world. Land insects are disappearing at roughly 9% every ten years. Here’s where it hits your plate. About 75% of the food crops we grow depend on insects to pollinate them, everything from apples to almonds to coffee. One 2025 study modeled what a full pollinator collapse would look like: food prices jump 30%, the global economy takes a $729 billion hit, and the world loses 8% of its Vitamin A supply. Birds are already feeling it. North America has lost 2.9 billion birds since 1970. A study from just weeks ago found half of 261 bird species on the continent are now in serious decline, and the losses are speeding up in farming regions. The birds that eat insects lost 2.9 billion. The birds that don’t eat insects? They gained 26 million. That ratio tells the whole story. One of the German researchers behind the 27-year study drives a Land Rover. He says it has the aerodynamics of a refrigerator. It stays clean now.

The soy industry kills the Amazon. This needs saying plainly, because somehow it has been filed under "environmental problems with meat" when soy is the thing doing it. Brazil is the world's largest soy producer. Between 2001 and 2020, soy expansion drove the loss of millions of hectares of Cerrado and Amazon forest. This soy, and here is where the story performs a disappearing act, is overwhelmingly used to produce soybean oil, with the defatted meal then sold as animal feed. The oil is the product. The chickens get the leftovers. The deforestation is happening to make the cooking oil in your shop-bought hummus. Glyphosate use on soy is among the highest of any agricultural commodity on Earth. Then the nutrition. Soy contains phytoestrogens, isoflavones, that structurally resemble oestrogen and bind to oestrogen receptors. Whether this matters at normal consumption levels is contested. What isn't contested: the cumulative exposure across soy protein isolate in protein bars, meat alternatives, infant formula, and oat milk is not being tracked by anyone. Soy also contains phytic acid, lectins, and trypsin inhibitors. Traditional fermented preparations: miso, tempeh, natto, break these down substantially. Soy protein isolate, ultra-processed and added to half the products in the wellness aisle, does not. The protein content is real. The amino acid profile is reasonable for a plant. These facts exist. But a product that cleared the Amazon, is littered with defensive toxins, runs on glyphosate, and arrives in your protein bar as a hexane-extracted isolate has somehow become the healthy and environmentally ethical choice. At least the cow ate grass.

🚨 Today's antisemitic arson attack on four Hatzolah Northwest ambulances in Golders Green (treated as a hate crime by the Met Police) damages emergency services for everyone in North London, not just the Jewish community. Hatzolah operates in a fixed 2.5-mile radius covering mixed neighbourhoods. Their explicit policy: respond to “any call for help, Jewish or not” and “help anyone who contacts our service, regardless of race, creed or colour.” CQC inspections and annual reports confirm they serve the general public, local communities and diverse populations, working alongside the NHS and London Ambulance Service to ease the burden for all. Golders Green is ~50% Jewish per census data, so their coverage includes thousands of non-Jewish locals, tourists and surrounding streets. Key stats for the Golders Green chapter alone: - 6,245 calls responded to in the last 12 months - Average response time: 6 minutes (as fast as 4.2 minutes for life-threatening cardiac arrests) - 61 fully qualified volunteer medics/paramedics + 21 dispatchers, running 24/7/365 with 5 ambulances & fast-response cars - Patient satisfaction: 4.96 out of 5 Broader London Hatzolah: 10,702 lives impacted in one year through responses, support and training. These are unpaid volunteers. Torching four ambulances means delayed life-saving care across the entire area for heart attacks, accidents and emergencies affecting all residents. This isn't victimless, it weakens community emergency services everyone relies on.

I recently asked Jewish students at a leading UK university if they saw a future for themselves here. Not one said yes. Today Hatzolah ambulances, whose sole purpose is to save life - ANY life - are burned in London. A country where Jews no longer feel they have a future is already in crisis.

We are absolutely heartbroken that this is how low Britain has sunk. This horrific act truly plumbs new depths. Hatzola is a volunteer-run ambulance service run by the Jewish community but catering to everyone, Jews and non-Jews alike, working with the NHS to save lives as fast as possible. They provide outstanding medical care at lightning speed every hour of every day, and fundraise to buy ambulances and equipment. They are truly a shining example of the Jewish community coming together to help everyone in the most fundamental of ways by giving the gift of life. Burning their ambulances in an attempt to put them out of action is a truly repulsive act of antisemitic hatred in a Britain where Jews now have to keep everything from schools to synagogues under constant guard. Our society has become infested with the sickness of antisemitism. In this case it is not only about catching the perpetrators and restoring the ambulances, but about politicians accepting that by tolerating everything from hate marches to hate preachers, they have created this sickening mess, and time has run out for them to act. The law must change, fast, but so must society. The people spewing obsessive conspiracy theories about Jews, Zionists and Israelis are not social justice warriors, they are hateful bigots who are feeding this madness and must be stood up to and told as much by ordinary decent people.

BREAKING 🔴🔴 An IRGC terror group in the UK, called Ashab al-Yamin takes responsibility for torching 4 ambulances belonging to a Jewish volunteer EMT services in Golders Green, London last night. The terrorists are on the loose. The UK is dealing with a serious problem.

I have stage 4 endometriosis. Today I've been in absolute agony with nausea, hips, back, even my shoulders in pain. This disease is brutal, chronic, incurable and it exclusively affects women. And yet, once again, a biological male, LARPing as a woman, has been appointed as a spokesperson/representative for endometriosis. Women are being erased from our own suffering. Our pain, our bodies, our disease. OURS!! Appointing a man, who can NEVER experience this isn't inclusion, it's invalidation. We deserve advocates who actually live this reality. This is NOT ok!

THESE PORTRAITS FEATURE CHRISTIAN WOMEN WHOSE TATTOOS MARK THEIR STATUS AS FORCED WIVES AND SEX SLAVES DURING THE 1915 ASSYRIAN, ARMENIAN, AND GREEK GENOCIDES UNDER THE TURKISH OTTOMAN EMPIRE. These portraits are not just photographs—they are wounds frozen in time, echoing the horrors of the Armenian Genocide, the Assyrian Genocide, and the Greek Genocide 💔. They come from the Ottoman genocide of Christian Armenians, Assyrians, and Greeks in 1915 (1914-1924), a dark chapter marked by brutality and injustice 😡. Each face carries a story of terror, loss, and a stolen identity. These women were torn from their families, their homes destroyed, and their lives shattered beyond repair 💔. They were forced into marriages they never chose and into sexual slavery, stripped of dignity, freedom, and humanity 😡. The tattoos on their faces and bodies were not art—they were marks of ownership, forced upon them as symbols of control and dehumanisation. Every mark tells a story of pain, a silent cry that still echoes through history 💔. Imagine the fear they endured, the silence imposed on them, and the identities they were forced to abandon. Their eyes carry sorrow—but also a haunting reminder of what hatred can do 😡. We must remember them, honor their suffering, and ensure the world never forgets what happened in 1915 💔. #AssyrianGenocide #ArmenianGenocide #GreekGenocide #ChristianGenocide #Genocide #Assyrian #Armenian #Greek #Christian

I'm afraid the police are on the wrong side here... ...supporting the people who are carrying out a very offensive act

When's Louis Theroux doing a documentary on THIS manosphere? When's he going to expose the idiocy of its leading proponents such as Stella Creasy?

The Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea could be up and running in just a few months. Enough gas to heat 1.6 million homes. Every single drop will go into our pipes. Ed Miliband is blocking it. Madness.

To those saying it will take years to get new oil & gas out the North Sea… It won’t. 👉 Jackdaw - can be producing gas in 3 months. 👉 Rosebank - can be producing oil in the autumn. Miliband just needs to approve them. Everyday he waits, the further away this supply gets.

Is Andrew Neil exasperated… incredulous… furious… or simply resigned? Read today’s column and, like me, you’ll feel all four. Because this past week hasn’t just been another geopolitical flare-up. It’s been the kind of moment that separates serious governments… from amateur ones. Arab oil infrastructure destroyed. The Strait of Hormuz closed. Energy supplies slashed. Bond yields spiking. Neil has covered every energy crisis since 1973… His verdict? This one could be the worst. I am inclined to agree. Now here’s the the part that should make every reader sit up. Britain isn’t just facing the storm. We are uniquely exposed to it. Why? Because while the world hardens… Our incapable leadership softens. Keir Starmer surrendering to demands for ever more spending. Ministers becoming prisoners of Labour’s Soft Left. A government oblivious to the pitfalls of our rising debt and vanishing fiscal discipline. The markets have noticed. They’ve priced it in. Andrew calls it… ‘A moron premium.’ And then comes the theatre. Angela Rayner lecturing investors on economic modelling as if they can’t see she’s a ‘chav’. Rachel Reeves praising other countries for drilling oil while refusing to sign off drilling here. Ed Miliband blocking fields ready to produce energy because he once declared drilling… ‘climate vandalism.’ Andrew doesn’t mince words. ‘The hypocrisy, the stupidity, the brass neck is breathtaking.’ That’s not rhetoric. That’s diagnosis. Because at the very moment we need resilience… We are borrowing billions just to pay the interest on the money we already owe. Not for schools. Not for hospitals. Not for our defence. Just to stay afloat. And that’s the image that lingers after reading this column. A global storm gathering on the horizon. A nation already deep in debt. And a government at the tiller… No map. Without a plan. And now without fuel. Better read it. Then, while history says he’s probably right, just hope Andrew’s got it wrong. (And yes. All parties are in this pic🤦‍♂️)

ANDREW NEIL: We’re heading into what could be the greatest energy emergency ever with a bunch of clueless inadequates at the tiller mol.im/a/15665931

ONE MAN CRUSHES COUNCIL IN POTHOLE WAR USING FORGOTTEN LAW! Retired 68-year-old Derek Bennett took on lazy Hertfordshire County Council after they ignored dangerous potholes ruining roads in Berkhamsted and Hemel Hempstead. Using obscure Section 56 of the Highways Act 1980, he served legal notices, then dragged them to court when they failed to act. Judge at St Albans Crown Court ordered the council to fix THREE major roads within 20 days and awarded Bennett £1,650 costs. “If everyone did this, we’d have lovely roads within six months,” he said. Absolute legend just exposed how useless councils really are! Derek Bennett, 68, pictured outside St Albans Crown Court, took action after becoming fed up with the potholes in streets in his home village of Berkhamsted in Hertfordshire and nearby Hemel Hempstead
