WELCOME TO THE UK 🇬🇧

From Boulogne to Birmingham, I’ve watched this group move unimpeded from their tents in France to now being dressed in their Sunday best in Brum.

If I can track two groups in two weeks, why can’t the authorities?

Or why won’t they?

“Appearing before a parliamentary committee this week, Lord Hermer said he was still determined to conclude a treaty surrendering the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. This is shocking. It beggars belief that, even at five to midnight in the life of the Starmer government, there are those in Whitehall still seeking to railroad through a deal replete with absurd and dangerous terms. It belongs in one place and one place only: the bin.”

How exactly can Congress allow somebody to take an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States if they openly advocate for eradicating the country?

“Everyone should be learning about this case.”

Okay! Here’s what happened:

On the night of July 4, 2025, 11 members of a North Texas Antifa cell carried out a coordinated attack on the Prairieland Detention Center.

Earlier that day, they had conducted reconnaissance (including reporting on security of the facility), and had assembled a cache of dozens of firearms.

The group planned the attack ahead of time, including a “gear check” where the leader discussed bringing rifles and ominously “not getting arrested.”

They dressed in black uniforms and brought 11 firearms, body armor, and military-grade first aid kits (including tourniquets for gunshot wounds).

They disabled CCTV cameras at the facility, and threw fireworks and explosives to flush the officers out for a planned massacre.

When officers called 911, Lt. Thomas Gross responded. Bodycam footage shows one of the attackers yelling “get to the rifles!” as the group opened fire.

Gross was shot once in the neck, with the bullet exiting through his back, but survived and continued to fight back.

The perpetrators of the failed mass shooting were arrested and charged with offenses ranging from concealment of evidence to attempted murder.

They were found guilty by a jury of their peers, and very appropriately received sentences ranging from 30-100 years.

There. Now you know.

EU käyttää viisumivipuvartta ensimmäistä kertaa Somalialle, koska palautukset eivät toimi. Asiasta keskusteltiin myös sisäministereiden kokouksessa ja jäsenmaat olivat laajasti toimien kannalla.
Hyvä päätös. Yhteistyö voi toimia vain kahteen suuntaan.

Chairman Jim Eschenbaum confirmed that Senate Majority Leader Thune asked me not to attend this event.

Thank you for recording everything, James Bialota.

The Manchester Model is also the Miliband Model

David Miliband joined the advisory board of Giant Ventures in September 2020. Five months earlier, his brother Ed had become Keir Starmer's shadow energy secretary. Giant Ventures is a London-based venture capital firm with a declared focus on green technology. Its portfolio includes Field, a battery storage company, and Beams, a green home renovation platform. Both stand to profit directly from the energy policies Ed Miliband now controls as Secretary of State.

Less than three weeks after Labour's election victory, Ed Miliband personally signed the Capacity Market Amendment Rules 2024. The document is technical. Its effect is not. Battery storage firms, including Field, benefited from rule changes that reduced the performance obligations previously required of contracted operators. Field had been a Giant Ventures investment since 2021. David Miliband was a paid adviser to Giant Ventures when his brother signed that document. Giant Ventures refused to disclose his remuneration. The firm's other advisory board members, including Lord Browne, record the position in their register of interests as remunerated employment.

The Ministerial Code requires newly appointed ministers to declare all interests that give rise to a conflict, including those of close family members. It requires them to avoid not merely actual conflicts but the perception of one. When both the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and the Cabinet Office were asked whether Ed had declared his brother's role at Giant Ventures, both refused to comment. When the department was pressed further, its spokesperson confirmed only that the List of Ministers' Interests would be published "in due course." Giant Ventures declined to comment. David Miliband did not respond. That silence is the story.

Ed Miliband's department has also paid over one million pounds in public contracts to Verian Group, a research and communications firm whose board includes David Miliband, appointed as non-executive director in April 2023. The contracts funded work on public attitudes to Net Zero and secondary heating behaviours. The department's defence is that Verian has provided services to DESNZ for many years and the relationship predates the current Secretary of State. That may be true of the contract history. It does not address why neither department would confirm a declaration had been made, or why a minister whose brother sits on a contractor's board continued to approve payments to that contractor.

The pattern matters because it has a twin.

Andy Burnham governed Greater Manchester for eight years on a platform of clean transport and green infrastructure. His wife, Marie-France van Heel, joined Be.EV as chief marketing officer in July 2023, was promoted to chief customer officer in July 2024, and was appointed to the board of directors in September 2024. Be.EV holds a public contract with Transport for Greater Manchester to operate the city's electric vehicle charging network, a contract awarded in 2019. She holds 252 shares in Iduna Infrastructure, Be.EV's parent company, and is a beneficiary of a long-term incentive plan tied to the firm's commercial growth. Greater Manchester is now tendering a new £166 million EV charging contract. Burnham declares his wife's role. He steps back from relevant decisions. The paperwork is in order, which is precisely the point.

In both cases the politician sets the policy direction. In both cases a family member holds a financial stake in the commercial sector that policy governs. In both cases the defence is procedural. Declaration filed. Recusal noted. Nothing to see.

Britain is being asked to take the Manchester Model national and trust its architect with Downing Street. Before it decides, it should understand what compliance permits. A conflict of interest that has been registered is not a conflict of interest that has been resolved. It is a conflict of interest with a paper trail.

I’ll be glad to see the back of Lord Hermer.

He has resurrected the Chagos deal & determined to give it away.

He signed off the prosecution for Lucy Connolly.

Compared political opponents to Nazis for wanting to leave the ECHR.

Hounded brave British veterans.

Odious man.

Big update to the fraud we discussed in this video. The largest homeless NGO in LA, Weingart Center is under FEDERAL investigation and the court just REJECTED all of Weingart's attempts to dismiss the fraud and waste claims regarding their shady property deal in Cheviot Hills.

What happened? Karen Bass and Nithya Raman laundered YOUR tax dollars through the Weingart NGO to pay 2x cost on a homeless housing project from a scammer middleman; a $16M flip, for a dubious homeless project, all while evicting the seniors who lived there.

Big hat tip to Samantha Nussbaum for doing the leg work on this case and bringing some accountability to the rampant fraud in LA's Homeless Industrial Complex. Are you starting to see how the scams work?

Andy Burnham’s u-turn on the ‘Boriswave’ is electoral and economic suicide. The PM-in-waiting is prepared to spend billions of pounds to allow new migrants to access the benefits system. He is shredding the social contract, says Rob Bates

🚨Iran demanded FIFA ban all LGBTQ ceremonies and Pride activities ahead of tomorrow's World Cup match against Egypt.

Seattle, the host city, has already declared it the official "Pride Match."

FIFA's response: Rainbow flags stay. Request denied.

Two nations where homosexuality isn't just illegal,it's punishable by death,will now play under Pride banners in one of America's most progressive cities 😂🏳️‍🌈
