BREAKING: An Islamist terrorist linked to the al-Qaeda unit that beheaded Briton Ken Bigley is walking free after serving just six months of a two-year sentence for illegally crossing the English Channel.

Six months after announcing his food price cap, John Swinney didn’t even mention it at the SNP conference. No wonder retailers are asking: What the hell is going on?

The SAS story is just mind-blowingly awful. Everyone involved in their persecution should be hounded from their jobs and out of polite society.

“The Foreign Office has reportedly raised concerns around whether he could face ‘mistreatment’ if he returned to Iraq due to his past.” Which Foreign Office officials? They should be named, shamed, and sacked.
When are we going to wake up? The international law-human rights complex is responsible for our inability to deport an Islamic terrorist who was part of Al Qaeda and ISIS before illegally infiltrating this country. The Foreign Office has reportedly raised concerns around whether he could face ‘mistreatment’ if he returned to Iraq due to his past. This human rights complex is also responsible for the witch hunt against our best and bravest, the SAS. This is the same international law that demands we give away our own sovereign territory, Chagos. We must find the intellectual clarity and political courage to surgically excise this cancer

The World Jewish Congress, founded in 1936, exposed Nazi crimes, pressed for the rescue of European Jews and advocated for Holocaust survivors. @EnglishHeritage has refused to honour its former headquarters in Mayfair/London with a blue plaque. thejc.com/news/uk/world-jewi…

Coincidentally read Lynsey Powell’s biog of Agrippa so feel I have teed myself up to read this. Will buy an airport edition today.

Pour ceux d’entre nous qui aiment la France, cette nuit a été tragique, surtout après l’effroyable vandalisme culturel survenu à Limoges. Les barbares ont gagné. Et le président Macron brille par son absence. Si l’establishment français, parfaitement inutile, continue sur cette lancée, il ne sera même pas nécessaire de procéder à un second tour lors de l’élection présidentielle du printemps prochain : Mme Le Pen obtiendra 50 % des voix dès le premier tour. Une tragédie est en train de se jouer.

'Palestinians' literally fought in WW2 for the Nazis. This is fucking disgusting.

I’ve just seen the so-called "Palestine Poppy" & it’s one of the most worst things I’ve ever seen. Attempting to hijack on a well known apolitical symbol which brings people together on Remembrance Day is completely disrespectful. Only the most insufferable people will wear it.

Nigerian Christians are being slaughtered across the country by Islamic extremists. Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo cries as he buries another 7. There is REAL genocide of Christians across Africa happening at the hands of Islamists and the world is SILENT.

Yes it's a real problem having a Jew expressing a mainstream Jewish opinion about which she kept entirely silent during her BBC career. Or let me rephrase that. It's a real problem if you have a problem with Jews.

Under the SNP, benefit fraud has effectively been decriminalised in Scotland. Hardworking Scots deserve a benefits system that is fair, not one that lets fraudsters get away with abusing taxpayers’ money.

Decline and fall of Scottish education.
Jaw-dropping stuff. So many people in key roles in Scotland have been stupefied by nationalist politics.
