A basic historical fact: The land now called Israel was known in antiquity as Canaan, then Israel and Judah/Judea — long before it was ever officially called “Palestine.” #Israel

Yes @SadiqKhan Londoners do deserve to feel safe. I keep telling you that. Not just this weekend but every single day. Reducing the number of Officers will not help will it. But you know that and you are reducing them anyway.
Sadiq Khan@SadiqKhan

My thanks to all retail and hospitality staff serving our city this Easter weekend, and the police protecting it. Londoners deserve to feel safe, & the Met will be out across our city. To anyone thinking of breaking the law: there will be consequences. lbc.co.uk/article/sadiq-…

I’m in Clapham today, after the M&S looting. Khan said there’d be ‘enhanced policing’. There wasn’t a single officer in sight. The community feel let down. Have a listen 👇

The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt in 1928. Its stated aim has never changed. The establishment of a state governed by sharia law under a caliphate. Islam is the solution is not a slogan. It is a programme. And the countries that know it best have drawn their conclusions. Egypt banned it. Saudi Arabia banned it. The UAE banned it. Bahrain banned it. Austria banned it. Jordan banned it in April 2025 after uncovering a sabotage plot linked to its members. These are not fringe states acting on prejudice. They are countries with direct experience of what the Brotherhood does when it embeds itself in civil society. They watched it build parallel social structures, challenge state authority, channel electoral pressure toward Islamist ends and provide the ideological conveyor belt that has carried individuals toward violence. They acted. Britain has not. The 2015 Cameron review found that the Brotherhood's ideology was a possible indicator of extremism. It found that individuals closely associated with the Brotherhood in Britain had supported suicide bombings by Hamas, an organisation that describes itself as the Palestinian chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood and whose military wing has been proscribed in Britain since 2001. It described the Brotherhood as deliberately opaque and habitually secretive, operating with a dual discourse, moderate in public, radical in private. It stopped short of proscription. That report is eleven years old. The Brotherhood has spent eleven years continuing to embed itself in British civil society while the government keeps the matter under close review. Manchester knows what that embedding looks like. Salman Abedi, who murdered 22 people at the Manchester Arena in 2017, attended Didsbury Mosque, whose leadership had documented links to the International Union of Muslim Scholars, founded by Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader Yusuf al-Qaradawi, who publicly endorsed suicide bombings. The mosque's trustees were linked to charities associated with Hamas. The sectarianism now visible on Manchester's streets, men on horseback charging anti-regime Iranian protesters while police stood back, does not emerge from nowhere. It is cultivated over years in institutions the state has chosen not to examine too closely. France's interior ministry declassified a report in 2025 estimating that seven percent of France's Muslim places of worship have links to the Brotherhood, affecting around ninety one thousand worshippers. France has approximately five million Muslims and 2,800 mosques. Britain has approximately four million Muslims and an estimated two thousand mosques. Applying the same seven percent figure to Britain's mosque network suggests around 140 mosques with potential Brotherhood links and somewhere between 250,000 and 300,000 people potentially exposed to Brotherhood influence in British places of worship alone. The French government commissioned a report to establish this. The British government has not. The argument against proscription has always been the same. The Brotherhood has not carried out direct acts of terrorism in Britain. Proscription would stigmatise Muslim communities. Engagement is preferable. A decade of evidence has answered all three. The Brotherhood builds the infrastructure, the ideology and the political pressure that others act upon, while charitable organisations linked to it receive Gift Aid from the British taxpayer. The strongest opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood comes not from Western governments but from Muslim majority nations. Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Jordan have concluded independently, from direct experience, that the Brotherhood is a destabilising force. Britain standing apart from that consensus has a word. Cowardice. Proscribe the Muslim Brotherhood. Before the countries that already have are proven right in the worst possible way. Didsbury Mosque and Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader Yusuf al-Qaradaw

Net Zero Eco-fanatic Ed Milliband has finally woken up! Ed Miliband is expected to give the green light to Jackdaw drilling, first major North Sea gasfield project in decade. Reality and common sense has won. Another U-turn for a failing government.

About time! Why should we spend billions importing gas from Norway or Qatar when we can use our own? This just shows Government CAN take decisions when it wants to. Funny that.

🚨 Douglas Murray DESTROYS BBC Newsnight Presenter Douglas Murray calmly dismantles the BBC on his “less Islam” comment: Nick Watt: “We should have less Islam in this country. Was that a wise phrase?” Murray: “Perfectly wise phrase… This country had a wildly stupid and lax immigration policy for decades.” On the bomber Salman Abedi: “One of the sons they gave this country was Salman Abedi who at 22 killed 22 young girls… one for every year of life this country gave him.” Then the key logic: “Jihadist extremism, jihadism comes from Islam. Therefore, if it’s 1%, 5%, 15% of people of the Muslim faith who follow that version of it, you’ve got a hell of a problem. And the more people, this is simple math, the larger the number of people who are followers of a faith that has not solved the extremism problem in its midst… the more extremism you will have. You don’t get that from the Catholic Church… or the Anglican church.” Murray closes powerfully: “Nobody else is as incredibly slow in learning as the British media and political class when it comes to this problem. Why is it the case that Saturday after Saturday we have thousands of people going through major British cities who support the death cults who would murder Jews and the rest of us next? That’s a question you and Newsnight should answer.” Countries with less Islam have less Islamic terrorism. Straight talk the BBC clearly struggles with.

For too long, Britain has been forcibly deindustrialised to please net zero fanatics. We will put a stop to this disaster by scrapping the carbon tax. That means cheaper energy, more jobs, and more manufacturing across the country. It will also mean that in an increasingly dangerous world, we will again be able to make the basic building blocks of modern life like chemicals and steel in the UK. The world has changed and Britain is at risk of becoming dependent on and falling behind countries that don’t have a carbon tax. We won’t let that happen. Conservatives will protect British manufacturing, not with endless subsidies but by cutting the taxes and energy costs that are holding them back.

Two and a half million years of eating animals. Sixty years of being told not to. One of these timelines produced the human brain. The other produced the obesity epidemic.

Children smashing up shops in broad daylight, stealing and even filming themselves doing it as if it were a game, is a much bigger problem than is being recognised. This is a total collapse of consequences. To those making snide comments about race or black kids - you do not see scenes like this in Lagos or Nairobi. Not because the children there are different, but because actions have consequences. There are clear boundaries. Parents, communities, and the authorities do not wring their hands or look the other way. Here, we have created a culture where too many young people believe they can do what they like and nothing will happen. That is the problem. And we should be honest about where that leads. If a child loots a shop today, films it for social media, and faces no real consequence, they are going to do much worse tomorrow. This is why under my leadership Conservatives are focusing on ENFORCEMENT, not just making more and more rules. Our Take Back Our Streets Campaign is about getting 10,000 more police officers, immediate justice and immediate punishment. But let’s be honest, this is not just a policing issue. It is a failure of authority at every level. Parents need to know where their children are and what they are doing. Discipline should start at home, not in a courtroom. We have also weakened the system around them. Deterrence is the backbone of criminal justice. Labour have changed the law so anyone receiving a sentence under 12 months will automatically walk free, instead receiving a suspended sentence. When people believe offences like this will not lead to meaningful punishment, we should not be surprised when more of it happens. You get more of what you tolerate. It’s not like we haven’t been here before. In 2011, when riots spread, the Conservative response was swift and visible. People saw consequences. And behaviour rapidly changed. That is what is missing now. This all comes down to fairness. Law-abiding people should not feel like fools while gangs smash and grab without consequence. The sad truth is the communities most damaged by this behaviour are often the very ones these young people come from. Only one approach will fix this: clear rules, real consequences, and the confidence to enforce them. It’s time to Take Back Our Streets and bring back a culture of enforcement.
Festus Akinbusoye@FestAKINBUSOYE

Personally, I would have required they all were arrested and their parents/carers come to collect them from police custody. Contrary to comments and narratives being pushed by some, this is not a policing problem, but rather an insight into what the future may hold. Young children during school half-term, decide to storm a store and cause absolute carnage, steal from the business in numbers and cause significant alarm to other members of the public while filming their criminal activity for content. Where does this sort of behaviour graduate to? What is the logical next step from this? How many of the parents of these children will know what they have been doing?

Keir Starmer said this in 2023: “Every day seems to bring a new existential risk to British farming. “Losing a farm is not like losing any other business, you can’t come back…you deserve better than that.” Instead, he betrayed farmers.
