Cops Defend Muslims Demanding ‘Jihad’ In London.

London’s Metropolitan Police (Met) defended radical Muslims who called for “Jihad” against Israel on the streets of Britain’s capital city over the weekend, claiming that the word has “a number of meanings” beyond the violent action or terrorism, with which it is most commonly associated.

The Met responded to a video on X (formerly Twitter) in which a large group of Muslims are seen demanding Jihad to “liberate people from the concentration camp called Palestine” outside the Egyptian Embassy on Saturday.

It claimed, “We have specialist counter terrorism officers here in the operations room who have particular knowledge in this area. They have assessed this video, filmed at the Hizb ut-Tahrir protest in central London… and have not identified any offences arising from the specific clip.”

“However, recognising the way language like this will be interpreted by the public and the divisive impact it will have, officers have identified the man involved and will be speaking to him shorty to discourage any repeat of similar chanting,” the Met added.

The response quickly caused a backlash, with British Immigration Minister Robert Jenrick stating that chanting “Jihad!” in Britain is “inciting terrorist violence” and that the government would speak directly to the police about the issue.

Pro-Hamas protests occurred throughout the United Kingdom on Saturday, with hundreds of thousands of people attending. A number of banners were displayed by attendees calling on others to assemble “Muslim Armies” to wage “Jihad,” with others proudly flying the flag of Al-Qaeda. Men and women were also segregated at the London protests.

Globalists Are Pushing the ‘United States of Europe’ Again, and Want Brexit Britain to Join.

Despite the United Kingdom having voted to leave in 2016, as well as increasing difficulties with eurosceptic governments in Central Europe, globalists have not given up their dream of smashing Europe’s ancient nation-states together into a U.S.-style federation, with the European Council on Foreign Relations (ECFR) renewing the case on Tuesday.

An article penned for the organization by Razvan Nicolescu, a former Romanian government minister who now works for Deloitte, insists the solution to the issues presented by an increasingly multipolar world is “quickening the pace of the European integration process… to build a United States of Europe”.

Nicolescu’s chief complaint is that as things stand, national governments can “abuse their veto power” by refusing certain contentious policies – such as migrant redistribution – and he argues greater centralization (and less national sovereignty) is required to ensure “effective leadership”.

“A United States of Europe will be able to implement a serious concrete plan for the rapid and full integration of Western Balkans countries, Ukraine, Moldova, and Turkey,” the article boasts, describing a state which would extend from the Azores in the mid-Atlantic to the borders of Syria, Iraq, and Iran.

“The new project should be left open for the United Kingdom to join; indeed, a United States of Europe was advocated by none other than Winston Churchill in 1946,” it adds.

Farage ‘Joke’ About Leading UK Conservatives Terrifies Establishment.

Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage’s quip about being the leader of the rival Conservative Party within three years has sent the UK establishment into a frenzy. The man dubbed “Mr. Brexit” recently joked: “I’d be very surprised if I were not Conservative leader by ‘26. Very surprised.” He further added: “They think I’m joking, I’m serious.”

Later on, he clarified the comments were made “in jest,” though that hasn’t quelled the nerves of a political class trapped between the centre-left “Tories” and the further-left Labour Party.

The first hurdle Farage would face would be his re-admittance as a Conservative Party member. The populist firebrand left the Tory party in 1992 to join the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP), which he led until after the Brexit vote in 2016.

Despite Prime Minister Rishi Sunak hinting that Farage could be readmitted, the establishment appears less open to the prospect. Greg Hands, chairman of the Conservative Party, has dismissed the idea of Farage’s leadership on multiple occasions: “First of all there is no vacancy, and secondly I would be extremely surprised if Nigel Farage were ever to be Conservative leader,” Hands said in response to Farage’s ‘joke’. “There are no plans to allow him into the party and he has not applied.”

Earlier this month at the Conservative Party conference in Manchester, Hands said he wasn’t open to welcoming Farage back into the fold, stating: “No, I don’t think I would because I think he’s repeatedly for the last 30 years or more advocated voting for other political parties. I think he said he doesn’t want to see the Conservative Party succeed so I don’t think I would.”

WATCH: Hundreds of Muslims Pray Outside Downing St in London.

Hundreds of Muslims shut down central London after gathering to protest Israel’s supposed involvement in the explosion at the al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City on Tuesday evening, which is now believed to have been caused by Hamas in a botched rocket launch attempt.

The gathering took place in front of Downing Street – home of the British Prime Minister – and stretched almost the entirety of Whitehall, the United Kingdom’s political quarter, situated yards from the Houses of Parliament.

Those in attendance demanded an end to the “massacre” of Palestinians and accused Israel of genocide, while waving Palestinian flags. Others sang, “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.” The crowd, predominantly comprised of young men, also stopped to pray, being led by an Imam who repeatedly chanted “Allah hu Akbar”.

One protestor, who claimed to be half-Palestinian, explained, “We are here to mourn everyone who has died in the last week, and since the beginning of the [Israeli] occupation.”

Similar events have occurred across Europe after Hamas’ violent incursion into Israel earlier this month, with many, such as in the German capital of Berlin, becoming violent and targeting local Jewish residents.

BREAKING: UK Flight Surrounded By Cops After Bomb Threat.

An Emirates airlines flight that landed at Manchester Airport in the United Kingdom has been surrounded by police after authorities were made aware that a bomb could be on board the aircraft.

Britain’s Ascendent Opposition Party Pledges To Make ‘Misgendering’ an Imprisonable Crime.

Britain’s left-wing Labour Party – leading in polls ahead of an imminent general election – has warned that deliberately “misgendering” a transgender person may be punishable by up to two years imprisonment under its potential government.

The party, led by Sir Keir Starmer, is planning to raise criticism of someone’s gender identity to an “aggravated offense” in an effort to combat the abuse against transgenders. The policy would make perceived transgender abuse comparable to assaulting or attacking another on grounds of race or religion, which are imprisonable offenses of up to two years.

“Thousands of women dispute the notion of ‘gender identity’ and particularly the idea that it should be prioritised over biological sex,” said Caroline Ffiske from the UK group Conservatives for Women.

“Is there a risk with this policy that a woman could be accused of harassment for correctly sexing a man and then for that to be treated as an aggravated offence?” she added.

Notably, the law of England and Wales does not require a transgender to actually be assaulted or abused but rather “perceive” any potential hostility from another due to how they identify themselves.

The law does not even provide a definition of “hostility;” instead, it uses an “everyday understanding” of the word, such as ill-will, spite, contempt, prejudice, unfriendliness, antagonism, resentment, and dislike.

REVEALED: Boris Johnson’s Girlfriend Carrie Symonds Was ‘The Real Person in Charge’.

WhatsApp messages from Boris Johnson’s tenure as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom reveal key figures in his government considered his then girlfriend, now wife, Carrie Symonds to be “the real person in charge” of the British government and its decision making.

According to messages sent by Cabinet Secretary Simon Case, the UK press was wrong to label Dominic Cummings – the chief advisor to Johnson – as the “secret Prime Minister”.

“I was always told that [Dominic Cummings] was the secret PM. How wrong they are,” Johnson wrote in October of 2020. “I look forward to telling select [committee] tomorrow – ‘oh, fuck no, don’t worry about Dom, the real person in charge is Carrie’.”

The National Pulse editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam extensively covered the outsized influence the former-Prime Minister’s significant other had on the U.K. government. According to Kassam, Johnson’s wife “…immediately corrupted what little semblance of conservatism Johnson once had, as only a third wife can… almost every single scandal had her bungling fingerprints all over it.”

Symonds reportedly directed government policy on a range of issues including transgenderism, environmental regulations, and the COVID-19 pandemic response. Benjamin Harris-Quinney, chairman of the conservative U.K. think-tank the Bow Group, told The National Pulse in February of 2021 that the power Symonds wielded in government raised serious constitutional concerns.

Harris-Quinney noted that unlike the First Lady of the United States, the spouse or partner of the Prime Minister has no real legal framework allowing for a direct role in government. The latest revelations from those who served in Johnson’s government serve as further confirmation that the un-elected, unaccountable Symonds, not Johnson or Cummings, ran the U.K.

Court Rules Govt-Run Hospital Can Withdraw Baby’s Life Support Against Parents’ Wishes.

England’s High Court has ruled in favor of a socialized healthcare trust seeking to withdraw life support from a seven-month-old baby girl, against her parent’s wishes, deciding “the significant pain experienced by this lovely little girl is not justified when set against an incurable set of conditions, a very short life span, no prospect of recovery and, at best, minimal engagement with the world around her.”

“With a heavy heart, I have come to the conclusion that the burdens of invasive treatment outweigh the benefits,” said the judge, Sir Robert Peel.

“In my judgment, having weighed up all the competing considerations, her best interests are served by permitting [the National Health Service] to withdraw [life support],” he added.

“We are devastated by the judge’s ruling and will be appealing,” said the baby’s father, Dean Gregory.

“Indi can definitely experience happiness. She cries like a normal baby,” he said.

“We know she is disabled, but you don’t just let disabled people die. We just want to give her a chance.”

British judges frequently allow doctors in the socialized healthcare system to not just withdraw life support from children against the wishes of their parents, but to allow parents to take children to other healthcare providers willing to treat them, as in the case of Charlie Gard.

In an even more shocking case last month, judges ruled a 19-year-old woman who had clearly communicated her desire to travel to America for experimental treatment should not be allowed to do so, deciding she lacked the capacity to make her own decisions.

During her case, the courts had also ruled neither the press nor her family could name her or publicly discuss her case, making it possible for them to fundraise or drum up support for her from doctors overseas or pro-life organizations.

Britain’s New Immigration Plan Will Remove Just 3% of Illegal Boat Migrants.

Only three percent of the UK’s illegal boat migrants – 1,297 people out of 35,000 (with the latter figure based on an estimated number of annual crossings) – will be removed from the country once the “Conservative” Party’s Illegal Migration Act comes into force in January next year, according to a report published this week.

The Act states that illegal migrants may only be removed to one of a number of “safe countr[ies]” in which their “life and liberty” are not threatened, including the 27 European Union Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, or Albania, among others.

Yet, the vast majority of those arriving in the UK by boat are from countries considered unsafe, such as Afghanistan, Iran, Eritrea, Sudan, and bizarrely India, meaning they cannot be removed and will be “stuck in a permanent limbo,” without the government able to do anything about it while costing up to £9.6bn ($11.5 billion) over the next three years.

British taxpayers are currently paying a staggering $10 million per day to house illegal migrants, with that figure destined to increase as more migrants arrive.

UK BANS Sex Offenders Changing Gender to Hide Identities.

British Home Secretary Suella Braverman is set to introduce legislation prohibiting sex offenders from changing their name or gender to avoid their identity being listed on the sex offenders register.

Several government agencies, including the Department for Work and Pensions, the British Passport Office, the DVLA, and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS), will merge so that if their personal details do change, the DBS will be immediately notified.

The current law requires sex offenders to register their new names with the police within three days of the change, with the onus being placed solely on the sex offender – a convicted criminal – to comply with the law.

There were roughly 12,000 sex offenders between 2019 and 2022 who did not register their new identity with the police. Many used their new names to evade the police and find employment in schools or homes where they went on to re-offend.

“No longer will the rights of a sex offender be given priority over the protection of societies most vulnerable,” stated the chief executive of the Safeguarding Alliance, Emily Konstantas.

“This change could not have come quick enough and is the biggest change to safeguarding legislation to date,” she added.
