LUCY LETBY Scandal Deepens: More Baby Deaths Under Investigation

05 December 2024 — Former British nurse Lucy Letby, already serving a life sentence for murdering seven infants, faces new police questioning. Authorities are looking into more baby deaths and non-fatal collapses during her time at two hospitals. Letby was previously convicted of trying to murder more infants between 2015 and 2016.

Cheshire Police confirmed that Letby was interviewed in prison about the ongoing investigation. The inquiry focuses on her time at the Countess of Chester Hospital and Liverpool Women’s Hospital. Police aim to find out if there are more victims linked to her actions.

Letby’s conviction last year marked her as Britain’s worst serial child killer in modern history. She was found guilty of an eighth attempted murder charge earlier this year at a retrial. Further updates from the police will be shared when available, showing how serious this investigation is becoming.

TOMMY ROBINSON Arrest Shocks Supporters: UK’S Anti-Terror LAW In Action

25 October 2024 — Tommy Robinson, legally known as Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was arrested in Folkstone, Kent on Friday. He is charged with not providing his mobile phone PIN under the Terrorism Act 2000. This law lets authorities demand access to electronic devices from travelers at British ports to check for potential terrorism links.

Robinson’s spokesman confirmed he will remain in custody until his court appearance on Monday at Woolwich Crown Court. Although bailed on the terrorism charge, he stays detained for allegedly breaching a High Court order by showing a self-made documentary earlier this year. The film was screened at a London rally and shared on his X account, formerly Twitter.

Robinson’s arrest happens just before a planned march by his supporters in London. The Metropolitan Police have announced increased security due to multiple protests and counter-protests set for the same day. Authorities are gearing up for possible unrest as tensions rise among demonstrators and counter-demonstrators alike.

BRAVE Israeli Woman EXPOSES Hamas’ Horrific Crimes at UN

24 October 2024 — Amit Soussana, the first Israeli woman to speak openly about sexual violence by Hamas, addressed the United Nations. She was taken from Kibbutz Kfar Aza on October 7, 2023. Her testimony coincided with the 15th anniversary of the U.N.'s mandate on sexual violence in conflicts.

Soussana described her life before as simple and private. She worked as an attorney and lived quietly in a kibbutz. Everything changed when Hamas terrorists invaded her home during Simchat Torah, a Jewish holiday. She vividly recalled missiles launching and gunfire approaching before being forcibly taken to Gaza by armed men.

For 55 days, she endured horrific experiences until her release in late November 2023 through a hostage deal with Hamas. Soussana’s account highlights systematic sexual violence committed by Hamas during their October assault on Israel. Her courage aims to bring international attention to these atrocities at the U.N event.

TRAGIC Migrant DEATHS in English Channel: 12 Lives Lost

04 September 2024 — At least 12 migrants died when a smuggler’s boat broke up in the English Channel on Tuesday. Most of the victims were women and children, including one pregnant woman. The migrants were primarily from Eritrea, attempting to reach Britain.

French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin reported 12 dead, two missing, and several injured. This incident raises the death toll in the Channel to at least 31 this year. Over 21,000 people have crossed the Channel so far in 2023, surpassing last year’s rate.

Darmanin called for a migration treaty between the UK and EU to address illegal crossings and employment of migrants in poor conditions. He criticized Britain for not tackling its shadow economy that employs illegal migrants.

Former Conservative Home Secretary James Cleverly criticized Labour’s lack of action despite their promises to “smash the gangs.” New Home Secretary Yvette Cooper blamed traffickers for using unseaworthy boats and risking lives even in poor weather conditions.

BRITISH Election Sees NEW Voter ID LAW in Action

04 July 2024 — Polling stations across the UK opened this morning at 7 AM and will close at 10 PM. Ipsos pollsters are gathering exit poll data to provide an early picture of the election results. Detailed seat-specific results will only be available in the early hours of Friday.

British and Irish citizens, along with some Commonwealth immigrants, are eligible to vote if they are over 18. This election marks the first time voters must show legal identification to cast their ballots in person, a measure aimed at reducing voter fraud. The Electoral Commission has approved 22 forms of ID, including passports and driving licenses.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his wife Akshata Murty were seen voting at Kirby Sigston Village Hall today. Reporting on the election is restricted while polling places are open, with broadcasters banned from discussing outcomes or publishing polls until voting ends. Violating these rules can result in imprisonment for news editors.

BRITISH TRADER’S Appeal Crushed: Libor Conviction Stands Strong

28 March 2024 — Tom Hayes, a former financial trader for Citigroup and UBS, has been unsuccessful in his attempt to overturn his conviction. This 44-year-old Brit was convicted in 2015 for manipulating the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) from 2006 to 2010. His case marked the first-ever conviction of this kind.

Hayes served half of an 11-year sentence and was released in 2021. Despite asserting his innocence throughout, he faced another conviction by a U.S court in 2016.

Carlo Palombo, another trader implicated in similar manipulations with Euribor, also sought appeal through the U.K.'s Court of Appeal via the Criminal Cases Review Commission. However, after a three-day hearing earlier this month, both appeals were dismissed without success.

The Serious Fraud Office remained resolute against these appeals stating: “No one is above the law and the court has recognized that these convictions stand firm.” This decision comes on the heels of a contrasting verdict from a U.S court last year which reversed similar convictions of two former Deutsche Bank traders.

Theresa May’s SHOCKING Exit: Former British PM Bids Farewell to Parliament

11 March 2024 — Former British Prime Minister Theresa May has announced her plans to resign as a Member of Parliament. This surprising revelation precedes an anticipated election later this year, signifying the conclusion of her 27-year long parliamentary journey.

May, who navigated Britain through the turbulent Brexit era, pointed out her escalating involvement in combating human trafficking and modern slavery as reasons for stepping down. She voiced apprehensions about not being able to cater to her Maidenhead constituents in the quality they deserve.

Her tenure was characterized by Brexit-induced hurdles and tense relations with then-U.S. President Donald Trump. Despite these obstacles, she continued serving as a backbench legislator after her premiership while three Conservative successors dealt with the repercussions of Brexit.

Renowned for sporadically critiquing her more populist successors like Boris Johnson, May’s exit will undeniably create a gap in both the Conservative party and British politics.

Theresa May’s SWAN SONG: Former British PM to Exit Politics After 27-Year Stint

09 March 2024 — Former British Prime Minister Theresa May has shared her plans to retire from politics. This announcement comes after a distinguished 27-year career in Parliament, which included a challenging three-year term as the nation’s leader during the Brexit crisis. The retirement will take effect when an election is called later this year.

May has been representing Maidenhead since 1997 and was only the second female prime minister in Britain, following Margaret Thatcher. She cited her growing commitment to fighting human trafficking and modern slavery as reasons for stepping down. According to May, these new priorities would hinder her ability to serve as an MP according to her standards and those of her constituents.

Her prime ministership was fraught with Brexit-related obstacles, culminating in her resignation as party leader and prime minister in mid-2019 after failing to gain parliamentary approval for her EU divorce deal. Additionally, she had a strained relationship with then-US President Donald Trump due to divergent views on Brexit strategies.

Despite these challenges, May chose not to leave Parliament immediately after ending her term as many former prime ministers do. Instead, she continued serving as a backbench legislator while three subsequent Conservative leaders dealt with the political and economic repercussions of Brexit.

SENIOR CITIZEN Soars Skyward: Security Shutter in Wales Store Lifts Woman Off Ground

06 March 2024 — In an unusual turn of events, Anne Hughes, a 71-year-old woman, found herself lifted off the ground when her coat became entangled with a security shutter outside a store in Wales.

Hughes, who works as a cleaner at the Best One shop near Cardiff, was caught off guard when her coat snagged and she was hoisted into the air. “I thought “flipping heck!”” said Hughes. A quick-thinking colleague came to her aid and helped her down after she spent 12 seconds suspended mid-air.

Despite the odd incident, Hughes managed to retain her sense of humor about it all. She expressed relief that she hadn’t landed face-first and even joked that such an event could only happen to her.

The store seized this unexpected opportunity by using the footage for online promotion with a humorous caption about their deals and staff members’ antics. The video clip was shared on social media platform X with this playful tagline: "Don’t hang about like Ann, come down to Best One for unbeatable deals! The only thing going up in our shop is our staff — not our prices!

ISIS PROPAGANDIST Scores UK Citizenship: A Shocking Blow to National Security

01 January 2024 — In a controversial move, UK judges have granted citizenship to a Sudanese migrant, known as “S3”. This individual entered the UK illegally in 2005 and 2018. Despite clear evidence of his involvement in spreading ISIS propaganda, he has been awarded lifelong anonymity and British citizenship.

This decision was made under the premise that deporting S3 would infringe upon his human rights. The argument is that he could face detention and torture if returned to Sudan. However, this reasoning overlooks S3’s multiple trips back to his home country without any reported persecution.

During one of these visits in December 2016, MI5 security service alleges that S3 actively spread ISIS propaganda on social media platforms. The government has voiced concerns about the potential national security threat posed by S3 due to his extremist activities.

The case has sparked further debate about border control and national security implications. Earlier this year, it was revealed that at least 53 convicted terrorists were shielded from deportation due to justifications provided by the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). Critics like Nigel Farage argue for leaving ECHR as a means of regaining control over national borders.

UK Judges DISMISS Security Threats, HAND Citizenship to Isis Propagandist

01 January 2024 — British judges have recently overlooked concerns raised by the Home Office regarding a Sudanese migrant, referred to as “S3”. This individual entered the UK illegally in 2005 and again in 2018. Despite having his British passport revoked due to active dissemination of ISIS propaganda, he has now been granted UK citizenship and permanent anonymity.

S3’s legal representation argued that his deportation would infringe upon his human rights. They cited potential detention and torture risks in Sudan as reasons for him to remain in the UK. This argument swayed the justices, even though S3 has made multiple trips back to Sudan without facing any form of persecution. During one such visit in December 2016, he allegedly used social media platforms to spread ISIS propaganda.

The government presented a case suggesting that S3 is a threat to national security. MI5 claimed that he showed unwavering commitment towards extremist ideologies propagated by ISIS and could potentially influence others towards radicalization. However, his lawyers successfully invoked provisions from the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) preventing his deportation.

Prominent Brexiteers like Nigel Farage believe that Rishi Sunak’s government must withdraw from ECHR for regaining control over Britain’s borders. The ECHR has been previously used as a shield against deportation for at least 53 convicted terrorists.

NEW YEAR Honors: UK’S Biggest Stars Recognized for Exceptional Achievements

31 December 2023 — This year’s New Year Honors list in the U.K. has recognized some of the country’s most admired figures. Among those honored are singer Shirley Bassey, filmmaker Ridley Scott, and Mary Earps, goalkeeper for England’s women’s soccer team.

Bassey has been appointed to the Order of the Companions of Honor in recognition of her significant contributions to music. Scott, a renowned director, was bestowed with a Knight Grand Cross for his invaluable service to the U.K. film industry.

Other prominent names on this coveted list include Paul Hollywood from “The Great British Bake Off” and Emilia Clarke from “Game of Thrones”. Both Clarke and her mother were awarded Memberships to the Order of the British Empire for their efforts in establishing a charity dedicated to brain injury recovery.

In sports news, Mary Earps along with fellow Lioness players Millie Bright and Lauren Hemp were commended after leading their team to last summer’s women’s World Cup final. Despite falling short against Spain in Sydney’s final match, their commitment and skill did not go unrecognized.

GRIPPING: PREGNANT Woman Brutally Stabbed Outside Aberfan School; Assailant Remains at Large

05 December 2023 — A chilling event occurred today outside a school in Aberfan, Wales. A woman, heavily pregnant, was brutally stabbed as she escorted her child to school. The perpetrator fled the scene immediately after the attack, according to local eyewitnesses.

South Wales Police are urging residents to steer clear of the area as they intensify their search for the assailant. Nearby schools have been put on lockdown and temporarily closed as a safety measure. The 29-year-old victim was assaulted near Ynysowen Nursery School.

The police were notified about the stabbing on Moy Road, Aberfan, Merthyr just before 9:10 am this morning. Armed officers are now scouring the immediate vicinity. As investigations proceed, locals are being advised to avoid this area for their own safety.

FORMER Minister Glenys Kinnock’s LEGACY: A Life of Service and Scandal at 79

04 December 2023 — Glenys Kinnock, a former British cabinet minister and European Parliament member, has died at age 79. She passed away in her London residence on Sunday after a six-year struggle with Alzheimer’s disease.

Kinnock’s journey from schoolteacher to influential politician was marked by her service as a cabinet minister under ex-Prime Minister Gordon Brown. She gained recognition for her relentless fight against poverty and hunger in Africa and beyond.

Despite her achievements, Kinnock’s political career was not devoid of scandal. During her time in Brussels, she found herself entangled in an allowance controversy involving several European Parliament members.

These members were accused of signing in daily to collect a hefty £175 allowance before swiftly exiting the premises. The scandal cast a shadow over Kinnock’s otherwise commendable political career.

UK Hospital’s SHOCKING Negligence: Mother Dies from Overhydration as Staff Glued to PHONES

27 November 2023 — In a chilling incident, Michelle Whitehead, a mother of two, tragically died due to overhydration in an English hospital. The 45-year-old woman was admitted to the Millbrook Mental Health Unit after suffering a mental health crisis in May 2021. She developed psychogenic polydipsia, a condition characterized by excessive water drinking that led to dangerously low sodium levels and brain swelling.

Despite the common occurrence of this disorder among psychiatric patients, the hospital staff overlooked Whitehead’s condition. Alarmingly, she continued to have unrestricted access to water which worsened her state. After being sedated, she fell into a coma — a state misinterpreted by staff as sleep.

The Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust confessed numerous shortcomings during their investigation into Whitehead’s death. These included poor patient monitoring largely due to staff engrossed in their personal mobile phones — an activity banned on the ward.

Other oversights included ceasing monitoring after sedating Whitehead and considerable delays in medical response times.

IDENTITIES SOUGHT: British Transport Police Hunt Men Behind Racial Clash Amid Anti-Israel Protests

13 November 2023 — Images of four men involved in a racially charged incident at a London metro station have been released by the British transportation police. The incident took place during anti-Israel protests which drew hundreds of thousands to the city streets.

The London Metropolitan Police had previously recognized videos showing unacceptable abuse, including anti-Semitic language and threatening behavior. The responsibility for investigating these incidents now lies with the British Transport Police (BTP), who oversee safety on the transport system.

On Sunday, BTP publicized four images stating they wish to interview the men shown following an incident at Waterloo Station. They believe these individuals possess critical information for their investigation.

A video making rounds online shows these four men hurling racial slurs and threats at pro-Palestinian demonstrators inside Waterloo Station. One man can be seen confronting another group before being restrained by his friend.

BRAVERMAN SHOCKER: Home Secretary Booted Amid Fierce Police Bias Controversy

13 November 2023 — In the early hours of Monday, Suella Braverman was abruptly dismissed from her position as Home Secretary. This marks the first significant shake-up in the much-anticipated cabinet reshuffle. The decision follows a rising tide of political opposition demanding her departure in light of her critique on police conduct during recent Israel-Palestine protests in London.

Braverman had pointed fingers at senior police officers for displaying left-wing bias. She referenced incidents where those opposing lockdown measures were dealt with severely, while Black Lives Matter protestors were allegedly permitted to flout rules. Moreover, she argued that right-wing and nationalist demonstrators faced harsh consequences, whereas pro-Palestinian groups exhibiting similar conduct were largely overlooked.

Her remarks ignited a firestorm of criticism, predominantly from left-leaning detractors and some centrists within the Conservative Party. Despite facing backlash, Braverman continued to express concerns over Palestine protests on Sunday. She hinted at inadequate policing by Metropolitan Police leadership that needed attention.

Whether these comments were strategic moves towards leadership or attempts at legacy building remains uncertain.

STORM BABET Unleashed: Fourth Life Claimed in UK’S Brutal Downpour

23 October 2023 — The relentless storm battering the U.K. and northern Europe has claimed a fourth life. Derbyshire Police reported an elderly woman found dead in her Chesterfield home, central England, with her death attributed to area flooding.

The River Derwent, near Derby, surged to its highest recorded level during the storm. This torrential downpour dumped an unprecedented 8 inches of rain on parts of Britain.

The storm, christened Babet by the U.K. Meteorological Office, has been wreaking havoc since Thursday. It has taken five lives across Britain, northern Germany and southern Scandinavia.

Beyond the fatalities, severe flooding forced over 300 homes to be evacuated in eastern Scotland. A North Sea oil platform had to airlift more than half its staff after four out of eight anchors came loose during Saturday’s tempest.

ISIS ‘BEATLES’ Member Admits Guilt: Aine Davis Pleads on Terrorism Charges in UK Court

17 October 2023 — Aine Davis, a British convert to Islam and suspected member of the notorious ISIS “Beatles” cell, confessed to terrorism charges in a UK court this Monday. The 39-year-old was deported back to Britain in August 2022 after serving time in a Turkish prison. Upon landing at London’s Luton Airport, British counterterrorism police promptly detained him.

Speaking via video link from a prison in southeast London, Davis admitted to possessing a firearm for terrorist activities and funding terrorism between 2013 and 2014. However, he refutes any association with the infamous “Beatles” cell — an Islamic State group notorious for torturing and executing Western hostages during the height of IS dominance over Syria and Iraq.

Two other alleged members of the “Beatles” cell, Alexanda Kotey and El Shafee Elsheikh are currently serving life sentences in the U.S., while another member known as “Jihadi John” was eliminated by drone strike back in 2015. Davis’s defense lawyer claimed that there had been unsuccessful attempts by Britain to extradite him for prosecution on home soil.; In
