New Torygraph owners demand fealty to Israel from staff
15 April 2026 @ 6:23 pm
The Zionist new owners of the Telegraph — already a hard-right, pro-Israel rag — have made support for Israel compulsory among its staff.

By Alex/Rose CockerBBC asylum investigation misses the point
15 April 2026 @ 3:45 pm
On 15 April, the BBC published an investigation into a “shadow industry of law firms and advisers… charging thousands of pounds to help migrants pretend to be gay in order to stay in the UK”.

15 April 2026 @ 2:42 pm
As we reported on 15 April 2026, Labour have lost half their voters since the 2024 election. Most of these have gone to the Green Party, and given that, you’d think Labour would be doing everything they could to win these people back.
