DATA: Farage’s Reform UK Outpolled Conservative Party Amongst Youth Voters.

A YouGov poll found that among voters under 30, Nigel Farage’s Reform UK was more popular than the Conservative Party in this month’s general election.

The poll of 35,000 voters found that 9.5 percent voted for Reform UK, compared to 8 percent for the Tories. Reform is the third most popular party among young people after Labour and the Green Party.

“The youth thing is really interesting, something very big is happening,” Reform UK leader Nigel Farage MP said Tuesday.

The polling echoes a trend experienced by other anti-establishment and populist right-wing parties across Europe, which have also seen surges in support from younger voters.

In France, Marine Le Pen‘s National Rally (RN) was able to secure 30 percent of the youth vote in the European parliament elections this year, up 10 points from the 2019 election.

In Germany, a song about deportation became a viral sensation among young people this summer as the Alternative for Germany (AfD) became the most popular party among 14 to 29-year-olds in Germany.

Professor Klaus Hurrelmann claimed that the popularity of the AfD among young people showed a shift to anxiety over the country’s future and an increased fear of instability, both economic and geopolitical.

Mathieu Gallard, research director at Ipsos, explained that immigration was a major factor driving people toward populist parties, and that seems to be the major issue among those young voters.

In the UK, Reform UK campaigned on net zero immigration, meaning that the party promised to only allow in as many immigrants as those who left the country each year.

The Tories, meanwhile, oversaw the largest legal and illegal migration wave the UK has ever seen during their tenure in government.

Business Insider ‘Journo’ Tried to Dox Right-Winger By Asking Grocery to Reveal Names of Customers Buying Lots of Eggs, Raw Milk.

A journalist working for Business Insider allegedly tried to force a United Kingdom grocer to reveal the names of customers purchasing large amounts of eggs and other produce in an effort to dox right-wing X (formerly Twitter) user Raw Egg Nationalist. Katherine Long, who is part of Business Insider’s “fast investigations team,” emailed a local UK farm shop requesting the names of customers who “regularly buy large quantities of eggs and milk.”

The email was published on X by Raw Egg Nationalist, who claims the inquiry is in violation of sections 44 to 46 of the UK’s Serious Crime Act of 2007. This act states that anyone encouraging or assisting the commission of an offense is also committing a criminal offense themselves. The contention appears to be that Long aided in illegally violating Raw Egg Nationalist’s privacy through her inquiry.

Raw Egg Nationalist told The National Pulse that he confronted Business Insider and sent them an image of the email but has yet to receive a reply from the publication. The National Pulse has reached out to Katherine Long for comment, who refused to speak on the record, and passed on the contact details of her public relations officer.

The incident took place around two weeks before Raw Egg Nationalist was doxxed by the notorious UK far-left activist group Hope Not Hate last month. When asked if he believed there may have been coordination between Hope Not Hate and Long, he stated, “Yes, that’s a potential avenue.”

Leftists and their media allies have long used unscrupulous methods to dox anonymous right-wing accounts online, including Bronze Age Pervert, a bodybuilder and author of the book Bronze Age Mindset, as well as the popular X account, Libs of TikTok. Shortly after the pandemic, Taylor Lorenz revealed that Chaya Raichik ran the Libs of Tiktok in 2022; NBC published an article praising the doxxing of right-wing figures like Raichik while claiming others, like transgender individuals, should not be publicly exposed.

Muslims Surround Police Station After Attack on Woman Officer Ends in Rough Arrest.

Hundreds of Muslim demonstrators in the rape gang hotspot of Rochdale, England, surrounded a local police station after footage of a Muslim man being roughly arrested at Manchester Airport went viral on social media. Footage shows an officer kicking the man, who has apparently been tasered, in the face as he lifts his head from a prone position. The officer then stamps on him.

The arrested man had allegedly been involved in a violent attack on police that left a woman officer with a broken nose. Two other officers were also injured and required hospital treatment.

Greater Manchester Police (GMP) suspended the officer who kicked the suspect, named as Fahir, on Thursday citing the “deep concerns that have been widely raised with us” about the incident.

The previous night, hundreds of Muslim demonstrators had surrounded the Rochdale police station where Fahir and another Muslim arrested at the airport, named as Amaad, were being held.

“[T]omorrow, I tell you boys, if we don’t get justice, yeah, these motherf***ers are gonna get it!” says one activist through a loudspeaker, in footage of the “protest” downloaded from TikTok. People commenting on the video can be seen calling for a riot.

A longer video of the same speech shows the speaker and mob chanting, “Allahu Akbar!”

Hundreds of Thousands of Millionaires to Quit Britain Under Tax-Hiking Leftist Government.

Around 500,000 millionaires are set to abandon the United Kingdom as Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer looks to impose higher capital gains taxes and strip tax breaks from so-called “non-doms”—resident foreigners whose permanent home, or domicile, is overseas.

The 500,000 figure comes from UBS’s latest Global Wealth Report, with the exodus expected to conclude by 2028. It would cut the number of millionaires in Britain by around 17 percent, the largest relative fall in the millionaire population of any country covered by UBS.

Cities like Milan, Italy, are becoming new havens for millionaires frustrated with the British government. Italy entices wealthy foreigners with a flat tax of 100,000 euros (~$110,000) a year, increasing spending, attracting investments in retail and hospitality, and boosting retail rents in areas where the wealthy congregate.

Last year, 74,000 non-doms contributed £8.9 billion ~($11.5 billion) in taxes. While law changes requiring non-doms to pay tax on all worldwide income increase their contributions in theory, the reality is many will exit the United Kingdom, and the government will collect no taxes from them whatsoever.

Paul Donovan, chief economist at UBS Global Wealth Management, noted that Britain currently has the world’s third-highest number of dollar millionaires but argues this is “far more… than it deserves to have as an economy.”

Another Lee Rigby? Masked, Black Male Arrested After Brutal Attack on Soldier Near Base.

A 24-year-old has been arrested for attempted murder after launching a brutal knife attack on a British soldier in full uniform near his barracks in Sally Port Gardens, Chatham, on Tuesday. Eyewitness accounts say the suspect leaped from a moped near Brompton Barracks, where Royal Engineers soldiers are trained, and fell upon the unnamed serviceman, stabbing him multiple times. He is reportedly in critical condition.

Images of the suspect show him wearing a ski mask and a NASA bomber jacket. Only his hands are visible due to his face being blurred. They appear to show he is black.

Neither the suspect nor his victim, reportedly a man in his forties, have been named, and the authorities had offered no motivation for the attack as of the time of publication. However, terrorism has not been ruled out.

In 2013, Royal Fusiliers drummer and machine-gun operator Lee Rigby was run down by a car and almost decapitated by British-Nigerian jihadists Michael Olumide Adebolajo and Michael Oluwatobi Adebowale near his barracks in Woolwich, London.

The pair were linked to Pakistani-British hate preacher Anjem Choudary, who was convicted of directing a terrorist organization shortly before the Sally Port Gardens attack.

Some commentators, including former Metropolitan Police detective Peter Bleklsey, believe Choudary’s conviction and the attack at Sally Port Gardens are likely to be connected.

This story is developing…

WATCH: Farage Delivers 1st Speech in UK Parliament, Calls for New Referendum!

Reform Party leader Nigel Farage MP has used his first (maidan) speech in the British parliament to highlight his constituency of Clacton, as well as call for a new referendum on Britain’s membership of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).

The ECHR is an international court based in Strasbourg, France that oversees the enforcement of the European Convention on Human Rights by its member states. It was created in 1959 and is primarily responsible for adjudicating individual or state applications alleging violations of the civil and political rights set out in the Convention.

The court’s judgments are binding on the countries concerned, and member states are expected to implement them. The ECHR recently ruled that member states must do more to tackle climate change, and the court encourages mass, illegal immigration into Britain. Public support for the institution is said to hover around 50 percent.

Speaking in Parliament, Farage said: “[If] you came to Britain illegally during the last Labour government. Your feet didn’t touch the sides. You were gone. You were out. Indeed, in the last year of the Labour Government, from 2009 to 2010, 50,000 people who came here illegally were deported. Now, none of that happens anymore.

“It didn’t happen under 14 years of Conservatives, and it clearly isn’t going to happen under this Labour government. And I wonder why. I think you’ll find it’s the increased role of a court overseas that was set up in the wake of World War II with the very best of intentions that has now completely outlived its usefulness. It is, of course, called the ECHR, the European Court of Human Rights, and it was the Labour Government that enshrined the convention into British law.

“We will not stop the boats, even if we send a handful to Rwanda. We will not stop the boats by attempting to smash the criminal gangs. We’ve been doing that to the drugs industry in Britain year after year, decade after decade, with no success whatsoever. The financial rewards for smuggling people across the English Channel can now net a gang 2 to 3 million euros a week. Whatever prison sentences or penalties are put upon them, there will always be people volunteering to make millions of euros a week.

“We will only stop this if we start deporting people that come illegally. Then they won’t pay the smugglers. We will only do that by leaving the ECHR.

“But I’ve got a fun suggestion that I think would liven up politics, engage the public, and see a massively increased turnout. Why don’t we have a referendum on whether we continue to be members of the ECHR?”

Trump Will Be ‘Delighted’ to Face Kamala Harris in November: Farage.

Reform Party leader Nigel Farage believes former President Donald J. Trump will be “delighted” to face Vice President Kamala Harris in November if she secures the Democratic nomination now Joe Biden has bowed out. He has also revealed the Trump family is “incandescent” at the security failures that allowed a gunman to open fire on the former president in Butler, Pennsylvania.

On Biden‘s exit from the race, Farage told British radio it had become “impossible” for the Democrats to sustain him as a viable contender. “The debate was bad enough; they managed to quell that, but… they couldn’t hide him in a bunker when it came to the NATO summit,” he said, recalling how Biden introduced Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky as “President Putin” and referred to Harris as “Vice President Trump.”

“Look, they’ve been covering up for this guy for years,” Farage said. “He’s not been up to the job for years… an incompetent man who, you know, is sadly past his sell-by date.”

TRUMP VS. HARRIS. 

Farage believes Trump will be “delighted” to face Harris, whom Biden has endorsed, noting her lack of support when she ran against Biden for the Democrats’ 2020 nomination. He also notes her close association with the illegal immigration crisis, with Biden having put her in charge of the border in 2021.

However, Farage predicts Harris will still secure the 2024 nomination without serious challenge, as he “cannot see the Democrat getting rid of a black African woman.”

Harris’s father is a Jamaican economist of African descent, and her late mother was an Indian medical researcher.

ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT. 

Farage, who flew out to the Republican National Convention to support Trump after the attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, also revealed the Trump family is “incandescent with rage” at the security failures that allowed “a man with a rifle [to] get onto a roof 125 yards away” from the former president.

“[W]arnings [went] up from the crowd, from the police, and yet it takes Secret Service so long to act. No, the family were both upset and very, very angry,” he said.

VANCE.

Farage has kind words for Trump‘s running mate, Senator J.D. Vance, describing him as embodying “the American Dream.”

“Growing up in abject poverty, drug addiction, fatherless home, and the guy joins the Marines and does well, goes to law school, goes into private equity. I mean, J.D. Vance is a huge success story,” he said.

“I’ve known Vance for over a decade, and he’s a very, very bright, impressive man.”

New UK Prime Minister Invites Zelensky to Cabinet.

Britain’s Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer invited Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky to a meeting with his Cabinet ministers on Friday, July 19. The meeting followed a forum of European leaders at Blenheim Palace, underscoring Starmer‘s attempt to underline the new Labour government’s commitment to the Ukraine war by inviting Zelensky to address his ministers, the first foreign leader to do so since President Bill Clinton in 1997.

Zelensky’s visit coincides with the launch of a new initiative aimed at disrupting Russia‘s ‘shadow fleet’ of about 600 oil tankers used to circumvent sanctions.

“I won’t allow Russia’s shadow fleet of oil tankers, and the dirty money it generates, to flow freely through European waters and put our security at risk,” Starmer said, adding: “Ukraine is, and always will be, at the heart of my government’s agenda.”

The Defence Export Support Treaty, to be signed by defense ministers, will provide Ukraine access to 3.5 billion pounds ($4.5 billion) in export finance to boost defense production.

Last week at NATO, Starmer reaffirmed a commitment, initiated by his predecessor Rishi Sunak, to provide 3 billion pounds annually in military support to Ukraine until at least 2030-31, and potentially beyond.

Meanwhile, in America, former Conservative prime minister Boris Johnson met with former President Donald J. Trump at the RNC to lobby for more support for Ukraine.

Far-Left UK Foreign Secretary Refuses to Apologize for Calling Trump a Neo-Nazi Sympathizer.

Britain’s new Foreign Secretary, David Lammy, is refusing to apologize for calling former President Donald J. Trump a “neo-Nazi sympathizing sociopath” and “tyrant.” He argues, “You’re going to struggle to find any politician who has not had things to say about Donald Trump in his first term, particularly on Twitter.”

Asked if his very public attacks on Trump, now the favorite to win the November presidential elections, will undermine the “special relationship” between Britain and America, the Labour politician told the BBC, “The truth is… Donald Trump has the thickest of skins.”

Lammy then completely reversed his past characterization of Trump, whom he has directly compared to Adolf Hitler, admitting, “There is a lot of rhetoric, but look at the action. He was the first to give Javelins to Ukraine after 2015. He talked about withdrawing from NATO; he actually increased troops to NATO.”

Lammy, who pushed far-left identity politics for years in opposition, has also charged Trump with “grotesque racism” and branded him a “wannabe despot” and a “racist KKK and Nazi sympathizer. ” He derided Trump’s supporters as a “cult of white supremacists.”

As a backbench Member of Parliament (MP), he lobbied against then-President Trump being invited to Britain for a state visit in 2017, arguing the British government should instead “be putting [Trump] on a watch list and barring him from entry to our country” while asking the FBI to investigate him for “inciting hatred” on social media.

WATCH: Rioters Overturn Police Car With Several Arrested In Latest Ethnic Violence In UK.

Rioters in the Harehills area of the British city of Leeds flipped a police car and set a double-decker bus on fire after a conflict between child protective services and the parents of local children. The disturbance began around 5:00 PM local time on Thursday and continued for hours with police eventually gaining control and making several arrests.

West Yorkshire Police confirmed that multiple individuals have been detained, with further arrests anticipated in the coming days. Tracy Brabin, the region’s mayor, announced that patrols would increase to maintain peace in the area throughout Friday night and the weekend.

Assistant Chief Constable Pat Twiggs stated that officers responded to an address after reports from social workers encountering hostility during a child protection issue involving a Romanian Roma Gypsy heritage family. The parents of the seven children are alleged to have wanted to take them to Romania this Saturday before social services took five of them. Social services also alleged that they were concerned about the welfare of the children after one, a nine-month-old baby, had suffered an injury in April.

RIOTERS TOOK ADVANTAGE OF CHAOS.

Police were escorting agency workers taking children into protective custody when the situation escalated, prompting a call for additional support from dozens of officers.

Video footage circulating on social media shows large groups rioting and damaging the police vehicle, including throwing objects at it while officers were inside. The riots centered on Luxor Street, next to an area heavily populated by “Asians”—typically people with roots in South Asia (India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh) and the Middle East rather than the Far East, in British parlance.

Several roads were closed, and the public was advised to steer clear of the area.

JUST THE LATEST VIOLENCE.

The rioting comes just months after Muslims in Southall, West London attacked police while celebrating the end of Ramadan, throwing bricks and other objects at officers.
