By The CanaryFarage increasingly isolated as pal Orban given the boot
13 April 2026 @ 11:47 am
On 12 April, the people of Hungary voted out the loathsome Viktor Orbán. As we reported, the man who’s replacing him is another right-wing Zionist. What he’s not, however, is a member of the same network of would-be-despots as Nigel Farage. Increasingly, then, it’s looking like the global right-wing uprising that Farage was relying on […]

One person who disagrees, however, is the man himself: Good lord Jesus was famous for kicking the money lenders […]

13 April 2026 @ 9:43 am
Iran are mocking Donald Trump’s claim he is planning to impose a blockade on ships leaving or entering the Strait of Hormuz if Iran doesn’t give up its own control of who can pass along its coastline.

13 April 2026 @ 9:37 am
Israel is having a petulant hissy fit about Spain. Again. The occupation regime has cried that a Spanish village’s decision to use an effigy of genocidal war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in its traditional Easter ceremony is – you’ve guessed it – antisemitic. The Israeli government – never one to shy away from displays of arrogance […]
