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.

UK Health Service Will Give A Year of Paid Leave for ‘Male Menopause’.

A National Health Service (NHS) Trust in the UK is allowing employees to take up to one year of paid leave to deal with the problems and embarrassment of “male menopause.”

East Midlands Ambulance Service Managers suggest that portable fans and heaters should be available to those dealing with male menopause, as well as advising them to return to work slowly and seek advice for the problem. The symptoms include, among other things, anxiety, depression, low libido, and hot flushes, according to NHS guidance.

The deputy director of human resources at the Trust stated, “We provide occupational sick pay for up to 12 months based on service length. That will support absences which may result from symptoms of the andropause or where time off for medical appointments is required.”

“As well as having menopause guidance we also support anyone within the organisation who is affected directly or indirectly by the andropause [male menopause],” she added.

Meanwhile, the British General Medical Council recently updated its internal policies to suggest that menopause does not only impact women, instead using the non-female-specific term “individuals experiencing the menopause.”

Near 50% of Black Britons Want to Leave UK.

Almost half of black Britons under 25 – 39 percent – claim they are planning to migrate out of the country, alleging concerns over racism, according to a recently published study from the University of Cambridge’s Black British Voices Project.

Only 45 percent of the roughly 10,000 people surveyed said they consider Britain to be their “permanent home,” with another 16 percent answering that they are either unsure or would prefer not to say.

Less than half of the respondents – 49 percent – said that they are “at least somewhat proud to be British,” with 45 percent stating that they feel “little to no pride in Britishness.”

The study, which has been presented at a House of Commons event, also identified “high levels of distrust and discrimination” among black Britons regarding health, education, and criminal justice.

A whopping 95 percent said the country’s educational curriculum neglects black lives, 87 percent expect to receive “substandard levels of healthcare” due to their race, 79 percent believe stop and search police tactics – all but abandoned over fears of racism to the detriment of many black people – are still unfairly impacting them.

The publicly funded British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) recently began indoctrinating UK children with false information about black people being present throughout British history.

British Intelligence Agencies Ban White Hires.

Several of the British government’s intelligence organizations – MI5, MI6, and Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) – have banned white people from applying to prized internships, preferring to receive applications from ethnic minorities who grew up poor instead.

The MI5 website states that to be eligible for either a 10- or 11-week scholarship at one of the organizations, “you’ll need to be in your penultimate or final year of university, from a Black, Asian or ethnic minority background, and from a socially or economically disadvantaged background.”

The organizations also claim that without diversity and inclusion they cannot undertake their main function which is to maintain the safety of those living in the country, explaining: “To protect the UK, we need a truly diverse workforce that reflects the society we serve.”

Vacancies in the UK can lawfully exclude white people by claiming to promote “positive action.” The Equality Act (2010) permits the exclusion of white Britons if it addresses some form of “under-representation or disadvantage.”

This is not the first example of white people being banned from internships, as Sadiq Khan’s Transport for London (TFL) only accepts non-white applications for the annual Stuart Ross Communications Internship.

Rumble Could Be Forced Out of the UK.

The free speech social media platform Rumble could be forced out of operations in the United Kingdom if it fails to comply with the country’s stringent new “online safety” laws.

Rumble, which hosts a number of commentators including Donald Trump Jr., Russell Brand, and even The National Pulse, will have to operate within the tight restrictions contained in the recently passed the so-called “Online Safety Bill” if it does not want to have its content either disrupted or blocked in the UK.

The bill allows the British government to censor any news or content considered violent or “harmful to health,” including questioning the efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccine. It also claims to monitor content that promotes “self-harm, suicide, or eating disorders.”

Failure to comply with the restrictions could even leave the social media platform’s executives open to arrest if they visit the UK. Notably, these laws were overseen, enacted, and widely supported by the UK’s “Conservative” Party.

“Their whole philosophy is freedom of expression…So when they get a letter from Ofcom saying, ‘Here are all the things you’re going to have to do’, it seems to me the most likely reaction is going to be they’re going to say, ‘Well, we won’t operate in the UK any more,’” states British peer Lord Allan of Hallam.

UK Cops Protest Colleague’s Murder Charge By Downing Guns.

The British Ministry of Defence (MoD) is preparing to deploy the army after hundreds of police officers handed in their guns in protest of a murder charge brought against an unidentified officer who shot and killed Chris Kaba, a young black man who tried to evade a police roadblock by ramming his vehicle into theirs.

The MoD announced it has “accepted a military aid to the civil authorities request from the Home Office to provide routine counterterrorism contingency support to the Metropolitan Police” and to “keep the public safe and respond to any eventualities.”

The ministry further stated the soldiers deployed shall have no powers of arrest, nor will they be asked to undertake policing tasks.

More than 100 police officers turned in their firearms permits, arguing that they were worried about how it impacts them. One former officer told a radio station, “What is obvious to me, they are not acting out of anger or petulance… They’re incredibly concerned it’s not worth it anymore.”

UPDATE: “As of lunchtime on Monday, the number of officers who had returned to armed duties was sufficient for us to no longer require external assistance to meet our counterterrorism responsibilities,” said the Metropolitan Police.

‘Rejoin EU’ Protest Flops, Attracts Few Thousand Despite Hopes for 50K.

Tens of thousands of anti-Brexit campaigners were expected to gather in central London on Saturday to rally for the United Kingdom rejoining the European Union (EU). Instead, only a few thousand — if that — showed up, with the pro-EU Independent newspaper suggesting the number could have been as low as one thousand.

The National Rejoin March (NRM) was expected to bring tens of thousands to Westminster in Central London. Instead, a relatively small gaggle of globalists and paid activists trudged through Piccadilly, with locals shouting, “You’re wasting your time!”

Speakers at the rally include former Belgian prime minister Guy Verhofstadt, as well as anti-Brexit lawyer Gina Miller.

The failure of the march is especially noteworthy due to the large-scale sponsorship of pro-EU causes, including the provision of buses from across the UK to attract activists to the event.

National polling has shown an increasing number of people are willing to consider rejoining the European Union, especially given that the “Conservative” government in the United Kingdom barely implemented Brexit in the first instance.

Since leaving the EU, migration has hit record highs, and the UK government has caved to Brussels on almost every negotiation. The opposition Labour Party is now suggesting an “associate” membership for the UK, which comes with all the financial and legal obligations, but none of the voting rights of a member state i.e. the worst of both worlds.
