As someone who spends an inordinate amount of time on social media with those who think that automated tills at the supermarket are part of a plan for world government, that reptiloids run the Earth, and that the Covid vaccines contain microchips put there by Bill Gates, I feel that I am well qualified to reject the whole government digital ID thing. This is also despite it now being endorsed by Tony Blair, a politician I respect (though the inexplicable involvement of William Hague is less of an encouraging sign). They say it’s part of a technological revolution comparable to the first industrial revolution. Artificial…

Britain will not send Typhoon jets to Ukraine in the short term, the defence secretary has said, despite a campaign by Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, and the former prime minister Boris Johnson. Speaking on the first anniversary of Russia’s invasion on Friday, Ben Wallace said the Typhoons would be too complex for Ukrainian pilots to fly and would involve putting hundreds of British troops on the ground to support them. The defence secretary’s comments deal a blow to Zelenskiy, who travelled to the UK this month to make a public request for fighter jets. The Ukrainian president has been backed by Johnson, who on Thursday repeated…

What is being described by her allies as a dirty tricks campaign against Kate Forbes’ fundamentalist Christian values is beginning to become unstuck.  Her supporters say that the joint front-runner in the campaign to replace Nicola Sturgeon as SNP leader and First Minister of Scotland is unrepentant after being subjected to a bitter campaign that has attempted to pour scorn on her beliefs. But it is beginning to rebound on her critics, following a dramatic intervention from the Catholic Church in Scotland – not normally a religious partner of the fundamentalist Free Church of Scotland, of which the finance minister has been a long-time…

It is probably fair to say that the jury has been out on Antony since Manchester United paid €100m to take him from Ajax last summer. The most insistent criticism of the winger has been that he is too predictable. Defenders know that he wants to come in from the right and curl for the far corner with his favoured left foot. It will not be out for much longer if he gets the trick to work like this and to settle matches like these. United had battled back from a 1-0 half-time deficit against Barcelona, the runaway La Liga leaders, Fred lashing…

The Israeli army launched airstrikes on targets in the Gaza Strip hours after Palestinian militants in the regions fired six rockets towards Israel’s south. The escalation in violence came a day after an Israeli army raid in the occupied West Bank that killed 11. The strikes occurred shortly after 6am on Thursday and were confirmed in a statement from Israel’s military. Hours earlier, Israel’s air defences intercepted five rockets which were fired towards the cities of Ashkelon and Sderot, the military said. One other rocket landed in an open field. There were no reports of damage or casualties. On Wednesday…

Keir Starmer has defended dropping key pledges made during his Labour leadership bid, saying they have been adapted given unprecedented global events, as he prepares to set out his five “national missions” to voters. Before a speech in Manchester that will reveal the building blocks of Labour’s general election manifesto, Starmer sought to convince voters he would stand by the new targets, which include delivering the highest sustained growth in the G7 for Britain. He denied that the 10 promises he made during the 2020 race to succeed Jeremy Corbyn had been abandoned and insisted they remained “important statements of value and…

As member states of the World Health Organization (WHO) prepare to gather in Switzerland next week to negotiate final terms of an accord that will give the WHO centralized authority over U.S. policy in the case of a pandemic, Republican senators are pushing back with an effort to reinforce congressional power to authorize treaties. The draft accord, which would be “legally binding” on all 194 member nations, gives the WHO the authority to declare pandemics and submits member countries to “the central role of the WHO as the directing and coordinating authority on international health work,” in areas like lockdowns, treatments,…

Members of Congress are preparing to probe COVID-19 vaccine development and other issues related to the shots. The Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic is planning to investigate how possible side effects are being studied, the regulatory process of authorizing and approving the vaccines, and why the vaccines were mandated, members told The Epoch Times. One goal of the committee is making sure the United States is prepared for future pandemics, “and that includes perfecting our vaccine development,” Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa) told The Epoch Times via email. “In order to do so, we must have complete transparency in vaccine research, clinical trials…

Pep Guardiola launched a characteristically counterintuitive defence of his approach after half-time in Manchester City’s draw against RB Leipzig. City were held to a disappointing 1-1 score in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie, but despite being dominated for long periods of the second half Guardiola refused to make a single substitution, and afterwards explained that he was wary of Leipzig’s danger on the counterattack. “My expectations were not high,” he said. “I had the feeling that the tie would be decided in the second leg. It’s 180 minutes and I didn’t want to lose 4-0 or 4-3 here.…

Kate Forbes has become a victim of “anti-Christian intolerance” and “bigotry”, the conservative church to which the SNP leadership candidate belongs has warned. The devout Christian was seen as the favourite to replace Nicola Sturgeon when she entered the race on Monday, but her personal views on a range of social issues, such as gay marriage, abortion and having children outside of wedlock have drawn intense scrutiny. Ms Forbes has said that she had no interest in imposing her personal views on anyone else and that Scotland would be in a “dark and dangerous” place if she was considered “beyond the pale”…
