Keir Stasi? UK government wants to prosecute ‘non-crime hate speech’

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.

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.”   

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:

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.”

Zelensky, not Trump, instigated Oval office clash

Published on

MXM logo  MxM News

Quick Hit:

Miranda Devine pushes back against claims that 47th President Donald Trump “ambushed” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during their Oval Office meeting, arguing that it was Zelensky who provoked the confrontation. Devine contends that Trump was “cordial” and intent on brokering peace, while Zelensky entered the meeting “in bad faith,” contradicting and interrupting the president before ultimately derailing the negotiations.

Key Details:

  • Devine asserts that Zelensky was “negative from the start,” contradicting Trump within minutes and repeatedly interrupting him in an “insolent” manner.

  • Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Zelensky should have voiced concerns privately at a scheduled lunch instead of creating a public spectacle.

  • Trump’s detractors, according to Devine, are using this incident to fuel yet another “Russia hoax” in their ongoing attempts to discredit him.

Diving Deeper:

Miranda Devine, in her latest op-ed for the New York Post, refutes the mainstream media’s portrayal of 47th President Donald Trump’s recent Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as an “ambush.” Instead, she argues, it was Zelensky who instigated the confrontation by entering the meeting with “negative body language” and a “hostile attitude.”

“Trump could not have been more cordial,” Devine writes, emphasizing that Trump had successfully navigated complex negotiations to bring both Russia and Ukraine to a moment where peace seemed possible. But Zelensky, she asserts, was determined to sabotage that effort.

From the outset, Zelensky took a defiant tone, directly contradicting Trump’s assertion that Europe had provided far less financial support to Ukraine than the U.S. “President Trump said that they made less support, but they are our friends,” Zelensky interjected, attempting to downplay Trump’s concerns. When Trump reiterated his position, Zelensky repeatedly interrupted with “No, no, no.” Despite Trump’s attempt to keep the exchange lighthearted, the tension in the room was palpable.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent later weighed in on the debacle, telling Fox News that “if Zelensky wanted to contradict Trump, the proper venue for that would have been 15 minutes later [at a private lunch].” Instead, Zelensky chose to grandstand before the press, leading to what Devine describes as the complete “blowing up” of the peace talks.

At the end of the meeting, Zelensky’s smirk and thumbs-up to someone off-camera left little doubt in Devine’s mind that he had orchestrated the confrontation deliberately. His ambassador, she noted, appeared distraught, watching the spectacle unfold “with her head in her hands.”

Devine sees a broader political game at play. She argues that the media and Trump’s political enemies have seized upon this incident to spin yet another “Russia hoax,” akin to the discredited Steele dossier, the first Trump impeachment over a call with Zelensky, and the “Laptop from Hell” censorship saga. “They could not tolerate that Trump… would be successful in ending the war,” Devine writes, suggesting that warmongers on both sides of the aisle needed this peace effort to fail.

Trump, for his part, did not let the moment pass without drawing a direct line to the Biden family’s corruption in Ukraine. He referenced Hunter Biden’s infamous laptop, telling Zelensky: “It came out of Hunter Biden‘s bathroom. It came out of Hunter Biden’s bedroom. It was disgusting. And then they said… the ‘laptop from hell’ was made by Russia. The 51 agents. The whole thing was a scam.”

Despite his provocations, Zelensky was met with Trump’s signature diplomatic coolness. When Zelensky dismissed the minerals deal, a key component of Trump’s proposed peace framework, Trump did not lash out. Even when Zelensky warned that “your American soldiers will fight” if Ukraine failed, a “severe provocation” as Devine puts it, Trump remained composed.

Only after an extended barrage of Zelensky’s interruptions and dismissive tone did Vice President JD Vance finally respond, stressing that “the path to peace and the path to prosperity is maybe engaging in diplomacy.” That set Zelensky off, leading Trump to finally push back. “We’re trying to solve a problem,” he told the Ukrainian leader. “Don’t tell us what we’re going to feel, because you’re in no position to dictate that.”

Now, with the negotiations shattered, the fate of Ukraine rests in Europe’s hands at an upcoming summit. “Ukraine can’t survive without America,” Devine warns, and Zelensky may soon realize that the stunt he pulled in the Oval Office cost him far more than he anticipated.

All Epstein Files Are In, Attorney General Reveals What Will Go Public Starting Thursday

Published on

 

From the Daily Caller News Foundation

By Hailey Gomez

If something’s redacted, you will know the line, and you will know why it’s redacted, the victim’s name, identifying information of a victim.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said Monday evening on Fox News that the thousands of withheld files on deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein are now in the hands of the FBI, adding certain redactions will be made, with an explanation provided for each one.

The Department of Justice released the first phase of “The Epstein Files” — an over 100-page document — on Thursday, but it failed to contain a majority of new information, sparking controversy online. On “Hannity,” Fox’s Sean Hannity addressed the controversy, asking Bondi for her response. She said she had been informed fewer than 24 hours before the release that “there were way more documents that they were supposed to turn over.”

“You’re looking at these documents going, ‘These aren’t all the Epstein files.’ There were flight logs, there were names, victims’ names, and we’re going, ‘Where’s the rest of the stuff?’ That’s what the FBI had turned over to us,” Bondi said. “So a source said, ‘Whoa, all this evidence is sitting in the Southern District of New York.’ So based on that, I gave them the deadline, Friday at 8, a truckload of evidence arrived.”

“It’s now in the possession of the FBI. Kash is going to get me, and himself really, a detailed report as to why all these documents and evidence had been withheld,” Bondi added. “We’re going to go through it, go through it as fast as we can, but go through it very cautiously to protect all the victims of Epstein, because there are a lot of victims.”

Before the release of “Phase One,” Bondi told Fox News last Wednesday that the DOJ would be releasing “some” of the files by Thursday, hoping the public would see “a lot of flight logs, a lot of names, a lot of information.” However, the DOJ and Trump administration faced pushback online after conservative influencers obtained a binder labeled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1.” Some of those influencers were seen smiling and holding it up outside the West Wing.

WATCH:

Hannity pressed Bondi about additional potential redactions in the files.

“National security, some grand jury information, which is always going to be confidential, but we’ll see. Let’s look through them as fast as we can. Get it out to the American people, because the American people have a right to know,” Bondi said. “Not only on that, but on Kennedy, on Martin Luther King, on all of these cases that the Biden administration has just sat on for all these years.”

“It’s really — it’s not sad. It’s infuriating that these people thought that they could sit on this information, but they can’t,” Bondi said. “And when we redact things, Sean, what we’re going to do is not just pull pages out like they used to do. If something’s redacted, you will know the line, and you will know why it’s redacted, the victim’s name, identifying information of a victim.”

Epstein was arrested and charged in 2019 with sex trafficking, only later to be found dead in his New York Metropolitan Correctional Center cell a month after his arrest. Since his death, Republicans, including Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn, have called for the full, unredacted records of Epstein to be released to the public, which includes his infamous flight log.

After the release of phase one, Bondi requested that the FBI deliver the remaining documents to the DOJ by Friday at 8 a.m., tasking newly confirmed FBI Director Kash Patel with investigating “why the request for all documents was not followed.”

“We believe in transparency, and America has the right to know. The Biden administration sat on these documents. No one did anything with them. Why were they sitting in the Southern District of New York? I want a full report on that,” Bondi said.

“Sadly, these people don’t believe in transparency, but I think more, unfortunately, I think a lot of them don’t believe in honesty,” Bondi added. “It’s a new day. It’s a new administration, and everything’s going to come out to the public. The public has a right to know. Americans have a right to know.”
