#OTD 12 October 1944, a transport of Jews were deported to Auschwitz from Theresienstadt Ghetto. Amongst them, Duch born Klara Borstel-Engelsman. She was murdered immediately in a gas chamber. Klara is the oldest Holocaust victim from the Netherlands - 102 years old.

ICMYI: A Sunday long-read.

In today's Britain, public services, and spending, are increasingly distorted to serve the insatiable 'needs' of the bottom 1%.

We need a Government that focuses relentlessly on improving the lives of the central 80-90%.

“A 'mystery' surgeon operated on a breast cancer patient at a scandal-hit trust and ran a private clinic inside hospital grounds - but bosses have no record of him on the staff.”

We have a government to whom it’s important that we to give our personal details before we tweet, but important that we DON’T give our personal details before we vote🤔🤷‍♀️.

Andy Burnham’s rushing through a change so you can vote with just a bank card — no photo needed.

That means polling staff can’t check it’s actually you.

They’re left matching a name (sometimes just initials) on a card with no photo.

The Electoral Commission has already flagged security worries.

It’s a clear watering-down of the photo ID rules brought in to stop people voting as someone else. Northern Ireland isn’t doing it.

A lesson in irony…

You won’t need photo ID to vote … BUT you will need facial scans and biometric ID to discuss it online

End of lesson.

GP refers child to hospital appropriately

Nurse doing a job they should never be doing, ignores referral, misses the diagnosis a third year medical student would make & inappropriately discharges child to worse possible outcome

[Brivael Le Pogam @brivael]

À chaque fois que je parle avec des Français, c'est la même chose. Ils sont désespérés. La dette, l'insécurité, l'islamisme, l'école, la natalité, le déclassement. « C'est foutu. » « La France est finie. » « On ne peut plus rien faire. »

Moi, je suis ultra optimiste. Vraiment. Et voici pourquoi.

D'abord parce qu'on a enfin mis un nom sur la maladie.

@Kristof_Poland l'explique mieux que personne : le communisme n'a jamais été d'abord un système économique. C'était un système de mensonge institutionnalisé. Les Polonais ont même un mot pour ça, qu'on n'a pas en français : zakłamanie. Une société tellement saturée de mensonges que la vérité en devient presque inaccessible.

Relisez ça et regardez la France.

Soixante-dix ans de communisme mental. Pas de goulag, pas de chars, mais le même logiciel : le réel est négociable, les mots servent à masquer, et celui qui nomme les choses devient plus dangereux que les choses elles-mêmes.

Résultat : une dette au-delà de 115 % du PIB qu'on appelle « modèle social ». Un islamisme qui progresse pendant qu'on vous traite de facho pour l'avoir remarqué. Une économie qui ne produit plus. Une jeunesse qui a honte de son pays. Une joie qui a disparu.

Les Français pessimistes voient ces symptômes et pensent que c'est la fin.

Moi je vois un diagnostic. Et un diagnostic, c'est le début de la guérison.

Ensuite parce que le mensonge a une date de péremption.

Un mensonge, ça coûte cher à entretenir. Il faut des subventions, des taxes, de la dette, des médias sous perfusion, des institutions qui tiennent la ligne. Et à un moment, il n'y a plus d'argent pour payer. C'est exactement là qu'on arrive. Ce que les pessimistes prennent pour un effondrement, c'est la fin du mensonge.

Ensuite parce qu'on a la preuve que ça marche.

La Pologne. Rayée de la carte pendant 123 ans. Écrasée par le nazisme puis par le communisme. Exsangue en 1989. Trente-cinq ans plus tard : l'une des plus fortes croissances d'Europe, seul pays de l'UE sans récession en 2009, une dette sous les 60 %, près de 5 % du PIB dans sa défense, des villes sûres, une identité intacte.

Les Polonais ont vécu le mensonge total et ils en sont sortis. Ils ont des anticorps qu'on n'a pas encore. La Pologne n'est pas en retard sur l'Occident. Elle est en avance. C'est notre futur.

Ensuite parce que la recette est connue.

Bukele a montré qu'on peut rendre la sécurité à un pays en quelques années. Milei a montré qu'on peut casser l'inflation et l'État obèse plus vite que tous les experts ne le jugeaient possible. L'ordre et la liberté. Ce qu'on nous a vendu comme contradictoire, c'est en réalité la condition de toute civilisation.

Et enfin parce que je sais ce qui vient après.

Une renaissance économique : on reconstruit, on produit, on ose.
Une renaissance de la joie : on refait des enfants, on refait des cathédrales, on refait la fête sans s'excuser.
Une renaissance de nos valeurs : la raison, la liberté, la responsabilité, la beauté.
Et un pacte clair avec ceux qui veulent venir. Bienvenue à ceux qui veulent devenir des nôtres. Mais devenir des nôtres, ça veut dire quelque chose : la langue, les lois, les mœurs, l'histoire. On s'assimile ou on repart. C'est ce que la France a toujours fait avec ceux qui l'ont aimée, et c'est la plus grande marque de respect : les traiter en égaux, pas en clientèle.
Alors non, la France n'est pas finie.

Elle sort d'une anesthésie de soixante-dix ans. Le réveil fait mal, mais c'est un réveil.

Les pessimistes regardent les ruines. Moi je regarde Varsovie.

Et je vois l'âge d'or qui arrive. 🇵🇱🇫🇷

🚨Councillor Michael Fife Cook, the leader of the Reform UK group on Devon County Council, raised safeguarding concerns after a large prosthetic penis and literature promoting “chemsex” were displayed at an LGBTQIA+ event in Exeter Library, next to a children’s art and colouring area.

The council then punished him for speaking out. Now, with the Free Speech Union’s backing, he is fighting back.

The event took place on 19th October 2025 as part of Exeter’s Out There Queer Fest. One mother complained that she had been forced to explain to her six- and seven-year-old children what the prosthetic penis was doing there.

A subsequent evidential review identified significant failings in relation to the event.

On 28th November, Cllr Fife Cook emailed fellow councillors and council officers to express his concerns about the safeguarding of children.

He wrote: “I think this makes it clear our council officers can’t be trusted in safeguarding children.”

He also warned that the incident made councillors “complicit in promoting and encouraging sexualisation of children”.

Rather than addressing his concerns, two senior council officers lodged complaints against him under the Council’s Code of Conduct.

On 29th July 2026, Devon County Council’s Standards Committee found that he had breached the Code, including by bringing himself or his office “into disrepute”, despite the independent investigator not having identified that particular breach.

The Committee ordered him to apologise in writing to the officers he had criticised and undergo training with the Council’s Monitoring Officer.

He refused — and rightly so.

An elected councillor should be free to raise concerns about safeguarding, challenge council officers and hold public authorities to account without facing disciplinary action for expressing an unwelcome opinion.

With the backing of the Free Speech Union, Cllr Fife Cook is now challenging the Council’s decision.

On 30th September, his solicitors, Sharpe Pritchard, sent Devon County Council a pre-action letter setting out four grounds of challenge: irrationality, a breach of his Article 10 right to freedom of expression, a failure to give adequate reasons and apparent bias.

But Michael’s case is part of a much wider problem.

Across the country, councillors are facing Code of Conduct complaints for social media posts, criticism of council policies and robust challenges to public officials. Time and again, we hear the phrase “bringing the council into disrepute”.

The Free Speech Union has supported councillors including Steve Horner, Kelvin Wright, Dulcie Tudor and John Edwards, who have faced complaints arising from their political speech.

Even when these complaints are dismissed, the process itself can become the punishment: months of investigations, legal costs, reputational damage and the chilling effect on other elected representatives who may think twice before speaking out.

And the Government wants to give councils even greater powers to punish elected representatives.

Under its proposed reforms, councils would be able to suspend councillors for up to six months, withhold their allowances and bar them from council premises. Two maximum-length suspensions within five years could result in disqualification from office.

Imagine the consequences if these powers were used against councillors simply for expressing contentious political opinions or challenging the conduct of council officers.

The Free Speech Union is supporting Michael’s legal challenge because we believe Codes of Conduct must not be weaponised to silence legitimate political speech.

A victory could help protect councillors across England from similar disciplinary action.

But litigation is expensive, and Michael will not be the last councillor who needs our help.

Please donate to the FSU’s legal defence fund to help us fight Michael’s case and defend the right of elected councillors to speak freely on behalf of the people who elected them 👇
