According to reports, the United Kingdom’s Home Secretary is seeking to reinstate the prosecution of ‘non-crime hate speech,’ overturning a 2021 court ruling which described the measure as a move towards a police state in Britain.
In the United Kingdom’s escalating war on the freedom of expression, the U.K. Home Secretary is seeking to reinstate the prosecution of “non-crime hate speech,” overturning a 2021 court ruling which described the measure as a move towards a police state in Britain.
According to an August 28 report in the U.K. Times, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper “faces a legal battle” to reinstate measures to interrogate, monitor, and even prosecute members of the public for a range of “non-criminal” remarks.
The measures were struck down in a case brought in 2021 by Harry Miller, the founder of U.K. policing campaign group Fair Cop. They are being reintroduced to “combat antisemitism and Islamophobia,” according to the U.K. Home Secretary.
Miller was visited at work by U.K. police to question him over an “anti-trans” joke he made on X (formerly Twitter). When Miller, a former policeman himself, brought a case against this “non-criminal hate speech,” the judge ruled that the effect of the police turning up at Mr. Miller’s place of work “because of his political opinions must not be underestimated.”
Mr. Justice Julian Knowles continued: “To do so would be to undervalue a cardinal democratic freedom. In this country we have never had a Cheka, a Gestapo or a Stasi. We have never lived in an Orwellian society.”
The measures advanced by the U.K. Home Secretary seek to make this “Orwellian society” a reality.
Recent changes to the U.K.’s Prevent strategy, a government operation to counter violent extremism, have seen “anti-abortion groups” bracketed with terrorists, and the inclusion of “anti-establishment sentiment” of any kind as adjacent to terrorism.
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has announced the redefinition of “terrorism” to include “anti-establishment rhetoric,” “anti-LGBTQI+ sentiment,” “anti-abortion activism,” and any speech online or offline which it deems to be “extreme” – as a report from LifeSiteNews below shows.
The U.K.’s Terrorism Act has been used in recent weeks to arrest and interrogate three U.K. critics of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Richard Medhurst, the son of British diplomats, was arrested and questioned for almost 24 hours on his return to the U.K. earlier this month.
In recent days, Sarah Wilkinson was arrested in her home under the Terrorism Act – for documenting Israel’s genocide. Richard Barnard, co-founder of Palestinian Action, has also been charged under the Terrorism Act following his arrest for doing the same.
As Kim Dotcom, himself the ongoing target of Deep State legal persecution, has remarked, this is not an issue of left or right. When the government is wrong, anyone who points this out is a target.
“Truth-tellers everywhere are under attack. As the propaganda media crumbles and people look for honest information elsewhere the deep state is abusing anti-terrorism and spy laws to intimidate and silence independent journalists,” he said.
In the U.K., this means journalists like Medhurst, and his fellow British journalist Kit Klarenberg, whose interrogation at Luton Airport in May 2023 was the first in a new wave of repression which designates truth telling as “terrorism” – and even treason.
Klarenberg’s interrogation saw him treated as a traitor in the pay of a foreign power. His investigations have shown how the CIA and MI6 created ISIS, how the Ukraine war is being directed and escalated towards Armageddon by the British state, and crucially how U.S. and U.K. foreign policy is dictated by the Zionist lobby. His investigations exposing state-level crimes have seen him labeled a “dangerous” individual by Deep State asset Facebook, a term usually reserved for violent terrorists.
In a report from February, he showed how the new U.K. National Security Act could see journalists like him face life imprisonment. Two years ago, he revealed “the journalist-run, intelligence-linked operation that warped British pandemic policy” – exposing the U.K. government’s partnership with media to manufacture consent to COVID-19 “vaccines” and lockdowns.
For naming actual foreign influence in the West, and the industry of death which is partnered with it, independent voices are being silenced as traitors and terrorists. Yet it is Klarenberg who revealed “British spies [are] constructing a secret terror army in Ukraine” – in 2022.
Western proxy war ‘playing with fire’: Russian foreign minister
Klarenberg’s reporting on the U.K.-backed Kursk offensive by Ukraine shows how far the British liberal-global state will go in gambling the lives of millions to preserve its own waning influence.
To prevent a U.S. “drawdown” from European war commitments, he says, the British state has propelled the Ukrainians into an escalation which risks full-scale nuclear war.
According to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, this policy is akin to “a child playing with matches.” In a warning to the West over the rising danger of nuclear war, Lavrov was reported by Reuters on August 27 as saying, “We are now confirming once again that playing with fire – and they are like small children playing with matches – is a very dangerous thing for grown-up uncles and aunts who are entrusted with nuclear weapons in one or another Western country.”
Lavrov’s remarks come in response to U.K.-backed Ukrainian demands for U.S. authorization to mount long range missile strikes on Russia – including on Moscow itself – using weapons supplied by NATO.
Former U.N. Weapons Inspector Scott Ritter warned in July that “the world faces a greater threat of a nuclear conflict between the U.S. and Russia than at any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962.”
Yet people who warn of the policies promoting Armageddon are accused of treason and arrested under terrorism laws. According to one former high level U.S. official, retired Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, this chaos is allied to U.S. “imperial” war policies, which have led the U.S. international order into crisis.
The former chief of staff to the U.S. secretary of defense said in an interview given on August 29 that the U.S. empire was collapsing due to its commitment to so many “stupid wars.”
“I’m not against war. I’m against stupid war. I’m against endless war. I’m against imperial wars,” he told Judge Andrew Napolitano.
Critics of the “forever wars” in the U.S., U.K., and across the West are routinely smeared as “pro-Russian,” or even “antisemitic.”
GnasherJew are “a digital investigation team who operate under the radar, using OSINT to expose antisemites.”
You may know Sarah Wilkinson from her antisemitic pro Hamas Propaganda on social media.
It looks like after we reported her repeatedly to @TerrorismPolice finally she’s been arrested. 🥂
Zionists in the U.K. have been celebrating the result of their mass-reporting of independent voices against Israel’s genocide, labeling critics of Western-backed war crimes as “antisemitic violent thugs.”
Here’s one X post by “award winning journalist” David Collier:
Sarah Wilkinson from Palestine Action has been arrested.
In the U.S., figures such as John Bolton routinely decry the influence of hostile foreign powers such as Russia, China, and Iran, whilst ignoring the charge made by retired Colonel Douglas Macgregor and independent journalist Max Blumenthal that the “entire U.S. political establishment is bought and paid for by the Israel lobby,” and the “Zionist … occupation of the American mind.”
The moves by the U.K.’s liberal-globalist regime to categorize criticism of its policies as terrorism is an escalation in the war against Western civilization.
Telling the truth is treason and an act of terror. Disagreement is extremism. If you demand an alternative to the permanent state of emergency delivered by the liberal-global order, you can expect interrogation, arrest, and imprisonment in the birthplace of “liberal democracy.”
The legal persecution of the argument for life is a further indication of how regime change has changed our regime at home. It began with a promise of an earthly paradise, with the global export of the liberal system of elections and cheap consumer goods, following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Instead of heaven, it has delivered hell on earth.
As the liberal-global project unravels, all it can do now is terrorize its own populations for telling the truth about the industry of death behind the mask of the “rules-based order.”
Keir Starmer’s first speech as prime minister said “my government will be a force for good.” Two months later, the forces he has unleashed may see him rightfully dubbed “Keir Stasi.”

Many of Trump’s cabinet picks so far have also pledged to remove DEI programs from the federal government. These policies can range from training federal employees on “white privilege” to using medical research funds to study racism to awarding federal funds to recipients only as long as they toe the line on DEI orthodoxy.
President-elect Donald Trump’s win and his subsequent creation of a Department of Government Efficiency have galvanized lawmakers to pave the way for legislation to clean out diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies, staff and programs that have ballooned under the Biden-Harris administration.
The Center Square was given advance copy of two bills filed Thursday by U.S. Rep. Bob Good, R-La., to end DEI practices at the Department of Housing and Urban Development
The first bill, the Flexibility in Housing Act of 2024, would block a Biden-Harris administration rule at HUD. That rule is about to be finalized and would require HUD grant recipients to implement “equity-driven housing plans.”
The newly introduced bill, however, would block that rule and give power to states and local governments to decide how best to spend the funds.
The second bill, the “No Discrimination in Housing Act,” would prevent large corporations from using DEI programs to get federal tax credits in buying up single family American homes, something many economists say is driving up the cost of homeownership for Americans.
The new bill “would prohibit any entity with a DEI initiative from receiving the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit – thereby ensuring the tax credit is distributed based on merit – not for the advancement of the radical DEI ideology.”
“The Biden-Harris Administration’s radicalization of housing policy prioritizes woke DEI corporations, yet does nothing that will actually drive down the cost of a home in an economy destroyed by Bidenflation,” Good told The Center Square. “My bills aim to restore Trump-era housing flexibility and eliminate the DEI housing policies that prohibit families from pursuing the American dream.”
These two bills, first obtained by The Center Square, are in line with Republicans’ renewed push to eliminate the hard left turn toward DEI policies taken in the last few years of the Biden-Harris administration.
Those policies have been under the microscope for years, but Trump’s win gives Republicans hope they can be undone.
Many of Trump’s cabinet picks so far have also pledged to remove DEI programs from the federal government. These policies can range from training federal employees on “white privilege” to using medical research funds to study racism to awarding federal funds to recipients only as long as they toe the line on DEI orthodoxy.
The latest high-profile examples of controversial DEI spending involves the Federal Emergency Management Administration. Amid the scandal of its handling of Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, reporting has shown that FEMA lists DEI and equity as it number one priority.
U.S. Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, introduced the Dismantle DEI Act, which advanced out of the House Oversight Committee, which would eliminate DEI programs in the federal government and return to a “colorblind” approach.
“Diversity, equity, and inclusion – these are words that, on the surface, seem to represent ideals we can all support,” Cloud said. But when these principles are redefined and implemented as an ideology within our federal government, they take on a meaning that diverges from their original intent.”
A recent report from Do No Harm documented about 500 examples of DEI programs across many agencies choosing to reward some Americans over others.
“Under the guise of progress, this ideology seeks to categorize individuals based on immutable characteristics rather than valuing the content of their character or their individual achievements,” Cloud continued.
The Biden-Harris administration is spending millions funding a project to advise homosexual men on how to more safely engage in drug-fueled intercourse.
The University of Connecticut (UCONN) in July announced a five-year, $3.4 million grant from the U.S. National Institute of Health (NIH) for Assistant Professor Roman Shrestha to develop his app JomCare — “a smartphone-based just-in-time adaptive intervention aimed at improving access to HIV- and substance use-related harm reduction services for Malaysian GBMSM [gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men] engaged in chemsex,” university news website UCONN Today reported. “Chemsex,” according to Northern Irish LGBTQ+ nonprofit the Rainbow Project, is the involvement of drug use in one’s sex life, and typically involves Methamphetamine (crystal meth), Mephedrone (meth), and GHB and GBL (G).
Examples of the app’s use-cases include providing a user who has reported injecting drugs with prompts about ordering an at-home HIV test kit and employing safe drug injection practices, UCONN Today reported. The app is also slated to provide same-day delivery of HIV prevention drug PrEP, HIV self-testing kits and even a mood tracker.
“In Malaysia, our research has indicated that harm reduction needs of GBMSM [gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men] engaged in chemsex are not being adequately met,” Shrestha told UCONN Today. “Utilizing smartphone apps and other mHealth tools presents a promising and cost-effective approach to expand access to these services.”
Homosexuality is illegal in Malaysia and is punishable by imprisonment, according to digital LGBTQ+ rights publication Equaldex. Drug use, including of cannabis, is illegal in Malaysia, and drug trafficking can be a capital offense.
The NIH disbursed $773,845 to Shrestha in July to conduct a 90-day trial testing the efficacy of JomCare among 482 chemsex-involved Malaysian gays. It also provided Shrestha with $191,417 in 2022 to “facilitate access to gender-affirming health care” for transgender women in the country.
“Gender-affirming care” is a euphemism used to describe a wide range of procedures, including sometimes irreversible hormone treatments that can lead to infertility as well as irreversible surgeries like mastectomies, phalloplasties and vaginoplasties.
Shrestha has a track record of researching mobile health (mHealth) initiatives for foreign homosexuals, co-authoring a 2024 study entitled, “Preferences for mHealth Intervention to Address Mental Health Challenges Among Men Who Have Sex With Men in Nepal.”
The proliferation of LGBT rights has been a “foreign policy priority” under the Biden-Harris administration, a State Department spokesperson previously told the Daily Caller News Foundation, with President Joe Biden instructing federal government department heads to “to advance the human rights of LGBTQI+ persons.”
“Around the globe, including here at home, brave lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex (LGBTQI+) activists are fighting for equal protection under the law, freedom from violence, and recognition of their fundamental human rights,” a 2021 White House memorandum states. “The United States belongs at the forefront of this struggle — speaking out and standing strong for our most dearly held values.”
President-elect Donald Trump announced on Nov. 12 that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy would collaborate to establish a new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), with Musk claiming the agency would feature a leaderboard for the “most insanely dumb spending of your tax dollars.” Some DOGE cuts could come from LGBTQ+ programs, such as a grant from the United States Agency for International Development to perform sex changes in Guatemala and State Department funding for the showing of a play in North Macedonia entitled, “Angels in America: A Gay Fantasia on National Themes.”
“The woke mind virus consists of creating very, very divisive identity politics…[that] amplifies racism; amplifies, frankly, sexism; and all of the -isms while claiming to do the opposite,” Musk said at an event in Italy in December 2023, according to The Wall Street Journal. “It actually divides people and makes them hate each other and hate themselves.”
Shrestha and the NIH did not respond to requests for comment. When reached for comment, a UCONN spokeswoman told the Daily Caller News Foundation that, “specific questions about the grant and the decision to award it to our faculty member should be directed to the NIH, since that’s the funding agency.”
