Pauline Hanson goes to UK, meets Tommy Robinson

And the commentariat DownUnder loses their shiite. Andrew Bolt’s vile attacks on Tommy Robinson are an eye-opener to how low the journaille will stoop to keep the establishment in power and to prevent change.

Defund the ABC Australia

Just two weeks after a podcast interview with Tommy Robinson cost Karl Stefanovic his television career, Pauline Hanson has recorded her own sit-down with the British far-right figure.  (From the extreme left Financial Review)

Pauline Hanson has declared she was left “gobsmacked” after touring the English town of Luton with controversial British activist Tommy Robinson, saying the experience reinforced her determination to prevent Australia from following the same path.
The One Nation leader, who is in Britain ahead of next week’s CPAC Great Britain conference, visited Robinson’s hometown as he pointed to what he described as the town’s changing demographics and the effects of mass immigration.
During a video shared on social media, Robinson drove Ms Hanson through parts of Luton before asking for her reaction.
“I’m gobsmacked because I wouldn’t think that I was in England,” Ms Hanson said.
“I definitely don’t want Australia to become like this. This is not Great Britain to me, and that’s why I’m going to protect Australia.”
Opposition Leader Angus Taylor has diverted his attention from Labor to Pauline Hanson in a blistering attack on her party. He says One Nation would deliver an “eternity of pain” for Australia, lighting the fuse for a war of words with the senator.

ABC: If a family in Banglatrash sells their daughter, it’s not their fault. It’s ‘climate change’

Zero agency. That’s what they give these people.

If a family in a third world country sells their daughter, it’s not their fault. It’s not their society’s fault, not their moral framework.

It’s your fault, for having air conditioning.

I’ts their ABC, but you’re paying for it.

Climate change becoming a major driver of child marriage across Asia and the Pacific

By Claire Campbell

Runa was 15 when she married a man she had never met.

Cyclone Remal had ripped through her camp in Bangladesh’s Cox’s Bazar region, killing her family’s chickens and ducks, which were the source of both their food and income.

Runa’s mother, who had become the sole income earner after her husband died a year earlier, then lost weeks of labouring work due to the natural disaster.

She could no longer financially support Runa, now 17, and her three brothers.

“She felt she had no choice but to arrange my marriage,” Runa told the ABC.

Twelve million girls are tipped to become child brides this year, according to Plan International.

Child marriage is a global problem across cultures and religions.

It is often inherently linked to gender inequality, poverty, food insecurity, and social norms and practices, including family honour and dowry payments.

Climate change is now believed to be a leading contributor to more frequent and younger nuptials.

“Whenever there is a climate change impact … we see a spike in child marriage,” said Plan International’s Tanushree Soni.

“Financial stress is the trigger.

“The families look to lessen the burden because they don’t consider girls to be part of their own families; they consider girls to be part of their [future] husband’s family. 

“So investing in girls is not a choice they can afford to make.”

While climate change is not believed to be increasing the number of tropical storms worldwide, scientists and meteorologists say a warmer atmosphere and rising sea temperatures and levels are increasing their intensity, and the impact they have on communities.

Trump Draws Red Line on Iran: U.S. Strikes Hammer Regime After Hormuz Attacks, Ceasefire Collapses

President Trump is delivering on his promise of peace through strength, ordering decisive U.S. military strikes on Iranian targets after the regime violated a fragile ceasefire by attacking commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

The latest escalation has shattered the June memorandum of understanding aimed at winding down the Iran conflict, but Trump administration officials signal that America will not tolerate threats to global energy security or U.S. interests.

Trump hints at further Iran negotiations after exchange of fire over Hormuz

 Trump Says Iran Asked to Continue Negotiations and US Agreed, but “the Cease Fire is OVER!”

Iran retaliated with attacks against Israel, Gulf states, and U.S. positions, drawing in regional proxies and expanding the conflict.

Thousands have died across the region, with millions displaced and global oil supplies disrupted

A ceasefire and MoU brought temporary calm, focusing on reopening the vital Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important energy shipping routes.

Yet Iran quickly tested limits by harassing tankers, imposing illegal routing demands, and attacking commercial vessels.

U.S. Central Command responded with strikes against more than 80 targets, including air defenses, command centers, coastal radars, anti-ship missiles, and IRGC fast boats.

Iran responded with drones and missiles toward Gulf targets and Jordan, with some intercepted. Continue reading US president says 1,000 missiles are “locked and loaded and aimed at the Islamic Republic of Iran”

‘She doesn’t give up that easily’: France’s Le Pen eyes the Elysee

Marine Le Pen, convicted of embezzling EU funds, announces her plans to run in 2027 after winning an appeal.

Hours after an appeals court lifted a ban on Marine Le Pen’s eligibility for the next presidential election while upholding her embezzlement conviction, France’s far-right leader announced plans to run in 2027 – possibly with an electronic ankle bracelet.

“I am a candidate in the presidential election. I will not change my mind,” Le Pen told the TF1 television channel.

Europe’s right-wing forces had been watching closely as some had expected her to hand the reins to her protege, Jordan Bardella, who at 30 is 27 years younger than Le Pen, popular, and more savvy on social media.

Le Pen’s far-right National Rally (RN) party opposes globalisation and immigration and seeks stricter border controls and fewer ecological policies. She is the daughter of the party’s founder and has run for president unsuccessfully three times.

“It’s like Russian nesting dolls. Jordan Bardella is part of Marine Le Pen’s political doctrine, and he’s committed to her,” RN lawmaker Jean-Philippe Tanguy said on French TV channel BFM.

In March 2025, Le Pen was convicted of embezzling European Union funds. The original ruling disqualified her from running for public office for five years, but the appeals court reduced the ban to 45 months with 30 months suspended. The ban started in March last year, so she has already served the 15 months.

She is now planning to appeal to the Court of Cassation, which is the country’s top civil court.

Israel Shares New Intel of New Iranian Assassination Plot Against President Trump After Regime Vows Revenge

Israel has reportedly provided the United States with new intelligence indicating that the Iranian regime has developed a new plot to assassinate President Donald Trump.

According to reports published Thursday by the Wall Street Journal, Israeli intelligence recently alerted U.S. officials to a specific assassination plot targeting President Trump.

Sources familiar with the intelligence said the warning was delivered this week and involved information that U.S. agencies had not previously identified independently. Details of the alleged plot have not been publicly disclosed.

Wall Street Journal reported:

Israel shared new intelligence with the U.S. that it said indicated a fresh Iranian plan to kill President Trump, people familiar with the matter said, a finding that would mark an escalation in the war between Washington and Iran.

Iran for years has vowed openly to retaliate against Trump for the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, who was a top general in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, in the president’s first term.

The Israeli embassy in Washington declined to comment. Iran’s Mission to the United Nations didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. The White House referred The Wall Street Journal to comments the president made on Wednesday.

Lebanon used to be a Christian country….

Until the Mohammedans invaded…..

Back to the war:

  • The guns fall silent in the Middle East after two days of deadly strikes between the United States and Iran as mediating nations attempt to get diplomacy back on track.
  • A US official tells Al Jazeera that Washington remains committed to negotiations with Tehran and technical talks continue.

Israeli forces detained Sheikh Mohammad Hussein, the grand mufti of Jerusalem and Palestine, after Friday prayers at Al-Aqsa Mosque, Wafa reported.

Israel’s military says it killed a Hamas commander who took part in the October 7, 2023, attacks.

It identified the Palestinian as Yahya Saeed Muhammad Hamdan, head of the Qassam Brigades Nukhba Forces unit that attacked Reim, a kibbutz in southern Israel. He was killed in southern Gaza on Thursday, the army said.

Trump says oil will start flowing, ‘with or without the help of Iran’

Trump has warned that “very quickly” oil will start flowing, “with or without the help of Iran”.

“Because of me, Iran will never have a nuclear weapon,” he added.

Netanyahu says ‘no ceasefire in Lebanon’

Israel to hold ceasefire talks with Lebanon

  • Israel’s PM Benjamin Netanyahu says he has issued an instruction to start direct negotiations with Lebanon “as soon as possible” after what he claimed were requests from Beirut.
  • Lebanon has declared a day of mourning after a wave of Israeli attacks killed at least 200 people and injured more than 1,000 in a single day on Wednesday.

China Turning on Tehran over Hormuz?

CENTCOM confirmed a new round of airstrikes against Iranian targets late on Wednesday, following Trump’s comments on further talks.

Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has plummeted following renewed violence in the region, according to a UK-based maritime data firm.

 

Explosions in southern Iran after Tehran hits Gulf states and Jordan

  • Explosions have been reported across southern Iran by state media and local officials, including near the Bushehr nuclear facility.
  • Despite the blasts, a US official has told Al Jazeera that the country’s army has not carried out strikes on Iran in the last several hours.
  • Iran said earlier that it attacked “US bases and strategic centres” in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar after the US bombedIranian cities for a second consecutive night.

China Demands Iran ‘Follow Through’ on U.S. Peace Deal, Signaling Frustration with Horm

The US military refutes claims by Iranian state media regarding shipping routes in the Strait of Hormuz, affirming that Iran does not control the strategic waterway.

In a post on X, CENTCOM said that “Iranian state media claims that transit through the Strait of Hormuz is only permitted through routes designated by Iran” is a “CLAIM” and that the “TRUTH” is “Iran does not control the Strait of Hormuz”.

The command further stated that “since early May, US forces have helped facilitate the successful transit of more than 800 commercial vessels and 380 million barrels of crude oil through the vital international trade corridor”.

China Turning on Tehran over Hormuz?

The Chinese Foreign Ministry lamented the resurgence of violence between Iran and the United States on Wednesday, urging both countries to “follow through on their memorandum of understanding” and “avoid resorting to force.”

Demands Iran ‘Follow Through’ on U.S. Peace Deal

China regularly condemns America for alleged belligerence on the geopolitical stage; the Foreign Ministry choosing to demand equal respect for their current peace agreement from Washington and Tehran is notable, however. Beijing referred to the hostilities as a matter that its close ally and prominent oil supplier Iran was equally responsible for rather than blaming the United States exclusively.

Speaking to reporters during her regular briefing, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning stated that China was “closely following” recent hostilities related to Iran and discouraged military escalation.

“Reigniting the conflict does not serve any party’s interests. Military means cannot solve the fundamental issue,” Mao asserted. “We call on the U.S. and Iran to follow through on their memorandum of understanding, resolve disputes through dialogue and negotiation, and avoid resorting to force.”

Mao’s statement did not blame the United States for the violence or exonerate Iran for its participation.

Somali Gangsters Call Law Enforcement ‘Dangerous’

Here’s a video

More proof that Muslims should never be allowed into any country that wants to remain civilised.

Fact is, if the U.S. hadn’t imported these third world savages, there would be 12 fewer gangs in Minneapolis, not to mention the billions in fraud that would have been saved. Nothing Somalis contribute to the US that is a net positive for the country…

CAIR-MN Calls Sheriff’s Somali Gang Warning ‘Dangerous’ as Law Enforcement Tracks 12 Somali Gangs in Twin Cities Metro

A Ramsey County sheriff’s warning about Somali gangs in the Twin Cities drew criticism from CAIR-MN and Minneapolis City Council Vice President Jamal Osman, even as one law enforcement officer said he is tracking 12 Somali gangs in the metro area and another called for “law enforcement, community members, and faith leaders” to work together on a solution.

Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher is facing pushback after using his social media show, Live on Patrol, to address what KSTP-TV described as a serious Somali gang problem in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area.

KSTP-TV reported that Fletcher’s video received tens of thousands of views and prompted backlash from Somali community leaders. Reporter Ben Henry said the station had questions for Fletcher and was told the sheriff was available for an interview, but when the crew arrived at the sheriff’s office that morning, they were told he was not available.

In the video, Fletcher said, “Before you start fixing the problem, first you have to identify what it is. We got a huge list of criminal activity, but having said that, we’re not indicting the whole community.”

KSTP described Fletcher’s remarks as addressing Somali gang violence and reported that law enforcement officials were investigation weekend shootings in Minneapolis involving gang members. One shooting killed a man, while another wounded multiple people and reportedly involved automatic gunfire.

Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office Somali gang investigator Jama Shine said, “This needs to stop.”

Another officer said, “Right now, I’m tracking 12 different Somali gangs in the metro.” Continue reading Somali Gangsters Call Law Enforcement ‘Dangerous’
