Mark Steyn Gets 5-Figure-Fine After COVID Lawfare.

Mark Steyn, a former presenter on GB News, has been ordered by the High Court to pay £50,000 (~$65,000) in legal expenses to the Office of Communications (Ofcom), which regulates communications in Britain. The payment is due by November 19. Steyn initiated legal proceedings against Ofcom after it determined that two of his 2022 broadcasts violated its standards, a conclusion he says “killed” his career.

The High Court ruling in July dismissed Steyn’s case, insisting Ofcom’s decisions were based on detailed reasoning. On Tuesday, the same judge expressed dissatisfaction that both parties had failed to settle the matter of legal costs amicably sooner, suggesting an agreement might have been possible with more prudent handling.

The broadcasts in question began with The Steyn Line, a monologue segment of Steyn’s GB News show. On April 21, 2022, Steyn discussed the country’s Covid vaccine rollout, using data from the UK Health Security Agency. Ofcom ruled on March 6, 2023, that the segment misrepresented the data, posing a risk to viewers.

A subsequent episode aired on October 4, 2022, featured an interview with author Naomi Wolf. During this segment, Wolf compared the vaccine rollout to “mass murder,” drawing parallels to “doctors in pre-Nazi Germany.” Ofcom concluded that GB News did not adequately protect viewers from potentially harmful content, describing Wolf’s statements as a “serious conspiracy theory.”

Steyn, who has since relocated to the United States, had been seeking to have these rulings overturned.

Punjabi Man Slashes Throat of Toddler, Cuts Schoolgirl in Brutal Assault.

A Punjabi speaker named Kulvinder Ram has appeared in a London courtroom, charged with slashing the throat of a two-year-old boy and cutting the face of an eight-year-old girl from mouth to ear. The 48-year-old faces three counts of attempted murder, having also injured a woman who tried to shield the children.

Ram appeared at Barkingside Magistrates’ Court on Friday night over the October 25 incident in Dagenham, East London, where fewer than 50 percent of residents were classified as White British in the 2021 census. District Judge Jonathan Moffatt has referred the case to the Crown Court, which has sufficient sentencing powers to deal with the charges.

London’s Metropolitan Police force says the suspect and his three victims were all known to each other but has not provided further details. The children and their mother are reportedly not in life-threatening condition.

Court reports have not disclosed Ram’s migration background, although Punjabi is spoken predominantly in India and Pakistan.

Former President Donald J. Trump has argued on several occasions that London and Paris, France, in particular, have become unrecognizable as a result of “opening [their] doors” to dangerous elements, telling supporters: “We can’t let that happen to our country.” London Mayor Sadiq Khan, of the governing Labour Party, is a regular sparring partner of the America First leader.

Ram is scheduled for a pre-trial preparation hearing on November 11.

REVEALED: Child Killer Who Sparked Riots *IS* Islamist Terrorist, Govt Hid Info From Public.

The suspect in a mass stabbing at a Taylor Swift dance class in Southport, England, that led to the deaths of three young girls has been charged with terror offenses. Authorities allege he downloaded an al-Qaeda instruction manual.

Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, a migration-background teenager suspected of stabbing three young girls aged just six, seven, and nine to death and injuring several others, has been revealed to have ties to radical Islamic extremism. He not only possessed jihadist terrorism instructions but also tried to procure the deadly nerve agent ricin.

While poison and the manual were found in his home, police have only released the information now, three months after the stabbing attack took place in late July.

PROTESTS.

Following the arrest of Rudakubana, who was reportedly born in Wales to Rwandan migrant parents, protests and riots exploded across England and Northern Ireland.

While some violence and rioting took place at some of the protests, many of the hundreds of people arrested and imprisoned by the leftist Labour government were given years in prison for as little as shouting at the police or posting heated messages online.

One man, a 61-year-old grandfather guilty of verbally abusing police in Rotherham, reportedly committed suicide earlier this month after being handed a sentence of over two years.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and the British police were accused of two-tier policing as mobs of Muslim counter-demonstrators were allowed to roam around Birmingham attacking white people and intimidating journalists with no riot response. Police later claimed they had determined the Muslim mobs were able to police themselves after consulting “community leaders.”

EUROPE.

Islamic State sympathizers in Austria have also targeted Taylor Swift, threatening to carry out a mass terror attack at one of her concerts in Vienna. Other mass stabbers, including a Syrian migrant who targeted a diversity festival in the German city of Solingen, were also linked to the Islamic State.

Europe has seen over 21 attempted Islamist terror attacks this year.

Elected Member Suspended After Knocking Out Constituent… On Camera!

Mike Amesbury has been suspended from his party after being caught on CCTV apparently striking a constituent. Amesbury, 55, a Member of Parliament (MP) for Britain’s governing Labour Party, can be seen in footage from outside a business in Frodsham, England. In the tape, he engages in an animated conversation before delivering a punch that knocks a man off the curb. Amesbury appears to continue hitting the man once he is on the ground.

Following the release of the footage, there were immediate calls for Amesbury to resign or be barred from Parliament. A Labour Party spokesman confirmed Amesbury’s suspension pending a police investigation. Amesbury has stated that he felt threatened during the encounter, which occurred around 2:15 AM on Saturday.

Cheshire Police confirm that they have interviewed a 55-year-old man under caution and released him pending further inquiries.

Amesbury, who has been part of the Labour Party since he was 17 and became an MP in 2017, previously branded anti-immigration protestors “criminals” and “thugs” on social media. He shared a post from the Home Office, roughly equivalent to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, showing the prison terms they could expect.

Tommy Robinson Jailed AGAIN.

Independent journalist Tommy Robinson has been imprisoned for 18 months for contempt of court in England. The sentencing follows a protest on Saturday that saw thousands rally in support of the anti-grooming gangs activist.

Robinson pleaded guilty to violating a court order banning him from making certain claims against Jamal Hijazi, a Syrian teenager who went viral on social media after a video was shared of another teenager pouring a bottle of water on him at school. Robinson alleged that Hijazi, who was said to have been the victim of bullying, was actually the aggressor, resulting in a libel case that saw Robinson ordered to pay the Syrian £100,000 and subjected to an injunction prohibiting him from repeating the allegations. However, Robinson went on to produce a documentary detailing evidence in support of his allegations, resulting in charges of contempt of court for breaching the injunction.

“Court injunctions must be obeyed,” insisted the sentencing judge, adding: “Nobody is above the law; nobody can pick and choose which laws and injunctions they obey and which they do not, even if they are convinced an injunction has been wrongly granted.”

Separately, Robinson was arrested and charged with terror offenses for refusing to provide his phone PIN code to police on Friday, preventing him from attending his pre-planned ‘United the Kingdom’ rally in central London on Saturday.

The rally went ahead regardless, with thousands rallying in his support, marching from Victoria Station to Parliament Square and spilling beyond their initial meeting point.

In place of a speech by Robinson, rally attendees watched a public screening of Robinson’s latest documentary, Lawfare, describing past efforts by police and prosecutors to imprison him.

Tommy Robinson Arrested on TERROR Charges for Not Giving Away His Phone PIN Code.

Independent journalist and anti-grooming gang activist Tommy Robinson has been arrested by police and remanded into custody until at least Monday, according to one of his associates. Sammy Woodhouse, a documentary maker and grooming gang victim, stated on X that Robinson had been remanded into custody after being arrested.

Media reports claim that Robinson’s arrest is due to a previous violation of Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act as he refused to give the PIN code to his mobile device to police. He was bailed and is due to appear in court next month.

However, he was remanded in custody over another case in which he is accused of defaming a Syrian asylum seeker in his documentary film Silenced, which he released publicly on X despite being ordered not to by a British judge.

The documentary questions the story of Syrian asylum seeker Jamal Hijazi, who was allegedly attacked by classmates at a school in Huddersfield in 2018.

Robinson had questioned the narrative around the incident on social media, claiming that Hijazi was not innocent and attacked local girls before the video. Hijazi and others later sued Robinson for libel, with a court ordering him to pay £100,000 in damages and a further £500,000 in legal costs—equivalent to around $780,000 in total.

The documentary, which a judge ordered to be censored, features interviews with several local people who pushed back against the mainstream narrative regarding Hijazi.

The arrest is just the latest for Robinson. He was detained in Canada earlier this year over supposed immigration violations while on a speaking tour. A British and Irish dual national, Robinson used his Irish passport for the trip, and following his arrest, the Irish government publicly debated revoking it.

Boat Migrant Crossings Already Ahead of Entire 2023 Influx.

According to official data, almost 30,000 migrants have reached the United Kingdom this year by crossing the English Channel on small boats. The Home Office, roughly equivalent to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, reported that on Thursday alone, 509 migrants arrived on British shores using 11 boats, bringing the total for 2024 to over 29,500. This figure represents a 10 percent increase from the 26,501 recorded at the same time last year.

This past week, nearly 1,000 migrants successfully crossed the Channel in just three days. Despite promising to tackle people trafficking, the leftist Labour government has done little so far to stem the tide of illegal boat migrants. Estimates suggest they cost taxpayers $10 million a day in hotel costs alone.

So far, the Labour government under Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has locked up more anti-mass migration protestors than people smugglers, including 61-year-old grandfather Peter Lynch.

Lynch, who was jailed for two years and eight months for holding an anti-government sign at an anti-mas migration protest, was found dead this week of an apparent suicide while in prison.

OPEN BORDERS KILL.

In related events, the French coastguard carried out a rescue operation on Thursday, saving 76 individuals who had encountered trouble at sea. These migrants were returned to Calais, France. Some refused assistance on two of the boats, continuing their journey after officials assessed intervention risks as too high, including people falling overboard.

The recent rescue operation follows an incident earlier this week where three migrants lost their lives, and several others were saved, after their vessel sank. This event occurred only a week after another tragedy which resulted in the death of a baby.

French authorities have documented 48 migrant deaths so far this year.

The Man Who Killed 3 Young Girls at a Taylor Swift Dance Party Remains Unconvicted.

Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, the migration-background teenager charged with a deadly mass stabbing targeting young girls at a Taylor Swift dance class in Southport, England, was scheduled for a pre-trial hearing at Liverpool Crown Court today. However, the hearing disappeared from the court’s docket without explanation for the delay.

The pause raises questions about why the hearing is not proceeding as planned. Many suspect that the authorities have been withholding sensitive details about the suspect’s motives and migration background, which will alter the public’s understanding of the attack when they emerge in court.

The Southport stabbings, which claimed the lives of three girls aged from six to nine years old, sparked anti-mass migration protests and riots across England and Northern Ireland, with demonstrators suspecting the perpetrator had Islamist terror motives or had entered the country illegally.

The British government engaged in a draconian crackdown in response to the unrest. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and his chief prosecutor vowed to imprison “far-right thugs” for as little as reposting “inaccurate information” about the attack online. However, Muslim and far-left counter-demonstrators have been treated much more gently by police.

After four months, police and prosecutors should have prepared their case against Rudakubana. Many anti-immigration protestors have already been prosecuted, including a grandfather who died in prison after receiving a sentence of over two years for shouting at riot police.

The delay comes as independent journalist and anti-mass migration activist Tommy Robinson is due to hold a demonstration in London on Saturday, where any new revelations concerning Southport would have been a hot topic.

BREAKING: Farage Tells ‘Conservative Party’ Officials to Defect to His Party or Face Political Oblivion.

Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage has issued a direct challenge to the Conservative Party ahead of the May 2025 county council elections. In a move set to shake up local politics, Farage sent letters to all 1,352 Conservative councillors facing re-election, urging them to defect to his right-leaning Reform UK.

Farage’s message is clear: the Conservative Party is on shaky ground. Many councillors are already seeing the writing on the wall, with colleagues defecting and Reform UK gaining ground in their districts. In several areas, Reform UK has not only secured MPs but has also come close to unseating Conservative incumbents. Farage’s appeal underscores a deepening frustration with the Conservative leadership, rocked by scandals and broken promises.

“The Conservative Party is a busted flush,” Farage said, pointing to internal battles over leadership and key policies like ECHR membership. “These 1,352 councillors are watching their time in office tick away. I urge any Conservative who believes in their country to join Reform UK and build on the incredible strides we made in the General Election.”

The defection push highlights Reform UK’s growing momentum and the crumbling confidence within the Conservative Party’s ranks. As local elections approach, Farage’s gamble could again reshape British politics.

Musk Declares ‘War.’

Elon Musk, owner of the social media platform X, formerly Twitter, has declared “war” amid allegations that a group linked to Britain’s governing Labour Party, whose founder also advises Vice President Kamala Harris, is actively trying to destroy the platform. “This is war,” Musk said in response to alleged internal documents from the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), provided to journalist Paul D. Thacker by a whistleblower.

The documents state the CCDH’s annual priorities, including “Kill Musk’s Twitter” and “Trigger EU & UK regulatory action.” According to Thacker, the British group is also heavily tied to the Democrats, holding a private conference with members of the Biden-Harris White House, State Department officials, as well as Canadian New Democrat lawmaker Peter Julian and others.

Morgan McSweeney, the founder of the CCDH, recently became Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s chief of staff in Britain. McSweeney is also said to have advised Vice President Kamala Harris and her campaign.

Labour and the Democrats have grown increasingly close this year, as several Labour Members of Parliament (MPs) and senior staffers attended the Democratic National Convention this year.

Around a hundred or more current and former Labour staffers are traveling to the United States to help the Harris campaign in key swing states, fueling accusations of foreign election interference.

Elon Musk, who supports President Trump, has stated that he expects to go to prison if Harris wins the presidency. Currently, several departments of the Biden-Harris regime are engaged in a massive lawfare campaign against the tech billionaire and his companies, such as Tesla, X, and SpaceX.
